C-SPAN WJ: Mike Allen...Rovian Troll
He's shilling for the new bird cage liner he and Jim Van De Hei are starting up.

He gave one "sccop"...how a "prominant" Repugnican feels Hillary would be a great President since she "sleeps with the greatest American politician". Now I wonder who gave that scoop.

A telling moment...a caller mentions booshie's drinking problems and Allen gives Peter the look to cut the call.

Looks like C-SPAN is loaded for right wing Bear today. Again.

1. What's wrong with C-SPAN this morning? Marching orders from ROVE?
First it's 45 minutes of "God Bless our President and The War in Iraq."

Now it's this dirt-bag Mike Allen kissing Dear Leader's butt. :puke:

What's next? Duncan Hunter for President! :rofl:

2. Nope...Probably A "Round table"
Featuring Some AEI hack vs. some one from the Heritage Institute.

Be assured any liberal or progressive will be "balanced" with an administration sockpuppet.

Cheers...

3. I just posted above.
I can't believe C-SPAN this morning. Without a doubt, someone is controlling the calls.

4. This "mother of a troop" supposedly would be turning in her
neighbors for SEDITION. Words to the effect, "Shame on you for not supporting our Ruler!" :puke:

Yeah, she'd have a special place within the totalitarian structure.

"Support our President, lest we turn you into the Feds!"

5. Nice view of Politico's very expensive newsroom.
Who's funding this?
Also. Allen is such a suck-up, it's mind-boggling.

6. C-Span drinks the kool-aid, I see.
I've watched C-Span for the past 6 years on a regular basis. I mean to the point of ad nauseum. Believe it or not, I used to have a life before this gang of thugs came into power. I've seen far too much of this right-wing "slogan", "jingle", "punch-line" talk here in the past year, actually. The callers are as scary as the hosts on C-Span. I can always tell what the Rush Limpball line of the day is by listening to C-Span's Washington Journal. I'm sure it chaps them to have to listen to the Majority Party -- The Democratic Party -- NOT the Democrat Party! I've written to all their hosts about their abuse of the English language. If we're going to demand everyone speak English, let's start with our Fuhrer and some of these "ditto-heads" on EVERY t.v. channel in this country.

7. IF the Democratic Party had not won both Houses, we would be called
THE DEMOCRAT PARTY, now and forever. :scared: The Billions and Billions that make up the Military Industrial Complex OWN our USA Main Stream Media, lock, stock and barrel. :(

Fortunately, the M$M is intelligent enough to say "DemocratIC" for now. :shrug:

9. This Is Part Of The Astroturf Operation
The Rove machine has long used this show to pump up talking points and spin...it's just a bit more naked now than it used to be.

I would watch a story go from a "rumor" on a website (usually Drudge) at night...the next morning, Washington Journal has picked it up and does a half hour on it...then it goes on to the hate radio talk shows where it's amplified to the point that by the time Tweety comes on at night it's become a "big story".

Look at the Obama sliming that's going on...a perfect example of Beltway "telephone" that spreads rumors and spin by using websites, hate radio, religious radio, cable television and print. It's the classic case of a rumor going around the world before the truth puts its pants on.

Cheers...

11. It's not "rumor" when it's deliberate misinformation.
It's government sponsored propaganda. Now we know what Rove's been doing. What took place on C-SPAN this morning was a conspiracy meant to silence critics of the war.

12. It Was More Desperate Than That
boooshie is quickly becoming irrelevant and is looking for something/anything that can be spun to a positive. Things have gotten that bad, even in this boy's narcicistic world, that they need to manufacture good media to bolster their own morale.

Polls are showing the astroturfing ain't working. Junior's approval ratings have been firmly in the 30s for over a year now and every time the doofus opens his pie hole those numbers go lower. Tonight's "State Of Denial" will only be important for the things he screws up other than what he says. Virtually everyone tuned in will know that any domestic topic other than tax cuts is pure bullshit and the foreign policy is so screwed anything he says only makes it worse. The few who will watch will be like gawkers at a car wreck...rubbernecking for reactions.

The right wing feels under seige these days. The buttons they used to push aren't working, but they're too stubborn to realize that and are just pushing the buttons harder. Craig Crawford really nails this when he talks about how networks have become lazy and mask it under the concept of "balance"...feeling that any and every talking point needs some regime mouthpiece to respond to it.

Hang in there...it's gonna take a little longer until all the hot air is let out of these gasbags. The more they chatter, the more they remove themselves from reality and the majority. It makes our messages sound fresher and credible. We just have to keep countering with the truth.

Cheers...

:hi:

10. Now Chuckles Grassley...
I guess the first Democrat we'll see this morning will be Nancy Pelosi calling the House into session.
