Now they have more Republicans than Democrats because the Democrats are in power.
Duh.
Give it up Duncan. There ARE no Democrats. If there were, don't you think they'd be on the TeeVee? Well? Don't you?
Of course.
So obviously, since there is never more than One Democrat on the TeeVee on any given day, One is all they got. If that.
So don't worry your pretty little head about these things. "Democrats" were always an illusion anyway.
We now have Centrists and Moderates.
Today's CNN, local, and regional news spin on the ISG recommendations.:

Does this woman even have a "cause"?
She reads. She smokes. She admires. She ignores her daughters' increasinly manic attempts to gain her attention. She entertains vague fantasies of stabbing Condi with her letter opener. It's a life.
Here's the thing--until, or maybe IF the Dems get sworn in next Jan, the Republicans are still in power. We just think we won.

'An unbowed Robinson, meanwhile, says he wishes Goldberg and the other defectors well, and is looking forward to Freep's July 24 "Treason is the Reason" rally in Lafayette Park across from the White House. The gathering will feature the political odd couple of Georgia Republican Rep. Bob Barr and left-wing Clinton-loathing columnist and Salon News contributor Christopher Hitchens.'
I'll see your Buckley and raise you a Hitchens.

Notice the trick, take the long known conflicts of 'war on drugs' Dubya Sr. and his Iran/Contra days And place it next to the freeps.

"If you leave, you're an enemy of the Web site," says Giles, a movie-industry Web architect in Santa Barbara, Calif. "Is that ludicrous or what? An enemy of the Web site? How can you be an enemy of a Web site?"
Hmmmm, sounds like a friend of the Antrhax hoaxer, same neck of the woods and all...
Dammit. The more blades they put in these razor cartridges, the fewer cartridges they put in a package!
"I love the Web site ... Jim Robinson is a genius. It's really well organized," said Dan Moldea, the Washington organized-crime reporter and author. "It's the belly of the beast," he adds.
He was one of the fruits at their 'concert' wasn't he? The one where Huckabee was at.
No mention of Huckabee the freep concert specialist?
The Cato Institute and AEI should be outlawed.
Too many moronic 'experts' excreted by them.
Moldea, who's been a target of Freepers since last year, when he surfaced as Larry Flynt's chief investigator of Republican sexcapades on Capitol Hill, relishes the political combat, but says: "These people are fanatical. They never admit they are wrong."
Moldea recently experienced a twist in a Freep practice that's gotten the site in trouble. He found an article about Clinton with his byline on it, headlined "The Mob President," posted at Free Republic. Since Moldea, an avid Clinton supporter, did not author the piece, he poked around on the Internet and found that the article had been lifted from another anti-Clinton tabloid and then falsely attributed to him at Free Republic.
The Mob preznit link also uses Black Sabbath music of 'Iron Man' and probably does not pay royalties on it...

Solution: Stop shaving!
Laura is as gracious as water is flammable.
plantsman,
I remember reading on some Gooper blog that Laura Bush was the most lady-like of our first ladies. Since I have been banned from commenting on that blog, I was not able to ask the blogger what exactly was meant by "most lady-like."
Does she shave her legs in a more lady-like way than, say, Hillary?, Did she raise her pinky finger whilst picking her nose more lady-like than, say Rosalyn? or Nancy? Does she delicately cover her mouth whilst belching and more, than, say, Jackie or Mamie did? Does she refrain from farting at state dinners more than say, Babs?
What, indeed, makes Pickles "more lady-like?"
Critics trace Free Republic's decline to last February, when the drive to impeach Clinton sputtered and Robinson and his followers began attacking Bush. Spring also marked the arrival at Freep's Fresno headquarters of one Connie Hair, a former Paramount Studios secretary and bit-role actress ("Death Wish 5") who found her political legs online at Free Republic.
Hair was soon anointed Freep's director of media relations and event planning. Her critics say she encouraged Robinson's desire to turn Free Republic from a mere Web site into a political organization.
"She turned it into a power position," said Giles. Expanding from Free Republic, Hair became a paid consultant to conservative Republican presidential candidate Alan Keyes as well as Larry Klayman, the Washington activist whose Judicial Watch has peppered the White House and its supporters with lawsuits.
The roots connect.
Mr. Murder, where are you getting the quotes? At Free Republic?
"I love the Web site ... Jim Robinson is a genius.
In Freeper Speak it's "geneius."
What, indeed, makes Pickles "more lady-like?"
Shaw Kenawne | Homepage | 12.23.06 - 11:55 am
For them I think lady-like means submissive and catatonic.
So much for the excuse that Republicans were over represented on TV because they were the party in power.

Wonder what their excuse is now?
That would be a good thing for someone to ask them.

"...accounting for how he's used them. He appealed for funds to stage Free Republic political events, such as last fall's "Judgment Day" rally in Washington, touted in a Freep-paid advertisement in the anti-Clinton Washington Times newspaper. According to his critics, some donors gave "tens of thousands" of dollars to the cause, while others donated with the hopes of making some money back by selling Freep T-shirts, bumper stickers, pins and so forth."
Some donors, all two of them.

Wonder what their excuse is now?
They want an honest discussion about how bad things will be under a Democratic Congress and they do not believe the Democrats can be impartial about this subject. So they just decided to give the Republicans a chance to vent.
Yes, I do think I do a pretty good impression of a network news producer.
Mirele: Isn't Press The Meat having some sort of religion conclave tomorrow? Something about "America's *snort* Pastor" Rick Warren and some other conservative person talking about Jeebus? (Not to be confused with Jesus.) That's what I thought I heard.

That triggered criticism that Robinson was receiving "six-figure" fees from TalkSpot while crying poverty on the site and begging for donations. No one beyond Robinson really knows how much money has been taken in or spent. He refuses to release a financial statement, and declined any comment to Salon News on his finances.

It's the hate mail and death threats sprinkled through the site, however, that some of Free Republic's former supporters believe demonstrate the decline of the site.
Samples about the Clintons: "Somehow, genital herpes just isn't enough for this duo ... 357 seems more on the mark (it may take a village to whack you, you sullen bitch!)
"Hey billzo, fondled any chicks on a rope line lately? Criss, have you noticed that these two assholes, the pres and his bitch, need about four layers of protection just to walk around in public? They know that everybody hates them, and wants them to be dead! Senator? yea-sure, c'mon, bitch, I got yer senator rite heayre! ..."
And this regarding gays: "I was once told that 50 grains injected behind the ear cures both AIDS and homosexuality," posted another Freeper with the screen name of D. Rider. "That's '50 grains' of lead."
"The FBI went around and rapped on his trailer," said Goldberg of one regular hate mailer. She doesn't take the rants seriously. "They were written in kind of a tough-guy vernacular, bully talk. That doesn't mean they're going to literally go kill [the Clintons]. But it was ugly stuff."
T.J. Walker, an online columnist who dug up a passel of ominous posts on the Clintons in the past few months (another sample: "People, we are going to have to go to Washington, and kill this horrible bastard ourselves!"), claimed that Free Republic's "political influence is rising even as death threats occur more frequently on its message boards." As evidence, he cited the upcoming "Treason is the Reason" rally that, in addition to featuring Barr and Hitchens, is also touting speeches by Rep. James Rogan, R-Calif., another failed House impeachment manager.

The Guardian reports:
More people in Britain think religion causes harm than believe it does good, according to a Guardian/ICM poll published today. It shows that an overwhelming majority see religion as a cause of division and tension - greatly outnumbering the smaller majority who also believe that it can be a force for good.
The poll also reveals that non-believers outnumber believers in Britain by almost two to one. It paints a picture of a sceptical nation with massive doubts about the effect religion has on society: 82% of those questioned say they see religion as a cause of division and tension between people. Only 16% disagree. The findings are at odds with attempts by some religious leaders to define the country as one made up of many faith communities.

Jon Meacham has shown once again he's a gasbag for the right, with as much relevancy as a broken coo coo clock, who picks up his paycheck from Carlyle Group. A weakminded punditry of right-wing demagoguery, his passion is only to comment on things he has no factual basis for but prefers to instead pseudo-analyze in a contrived, and serving speculation along with his junior high level sense of humor, which in turn reveals weakly his disappoinment in realizing that his is a non-significant and continually diminishing position of national flatuence. Certainly not by anyone's standard, a vital, or essential source of information, world events, or this country's trends and sentiments. Drug addict, and severely pathological liar, shock jock Rush Limbaugh has, at this point more credibility and honor. The math product value being less than zero.

Isn't it about time progressives started to have a conversation about reaching out to religious values voters? I just think it is terribly important that nobody ever say anything ever that might even remotely trouble a religious values voter, because they are the People of the Heartland.

Hi all: can't read about a litany of First Ladies without recalling one Eleanor Roosevelt, who was not merely a First Lady but arguably the First Woman of not merely the United States, but the world. Laura in the company of eleanor's ghost is risible...
ProfWombat | The local planter elite was quite good friends with Eleanor.
Originally they were titled the largest state land grant bordering the Mississppi, two counties up into Missouri as well.
Mrs. Roosevelt used to visit the Wilson often. Named a daughter in the family after one of the Astors... by marriage, I believe.
Many pics of Eleanor's visits to their region remain. One of FDR's regrets appears to have been ceding civil rights issues tot he blue dogs.
He was a realist, and the Mrs. saw to it women's rights were advanced, by degrees and precedent America was made better.
Gender equity matured into civil equity. Granted, both topics are still not where they should be.
guess its time to build a fire on the television and shoot it full of holes.

They should start with Whiskypalians. They're normally a pretty compliant audience.
The poll also reveals that non-believers outnumber believers in Britain by almost two to one.
Thanks, Hermit. Like the dawning of the new year, there's always something here to restore a glimmer of my hope for mankind.

Isn't it about time progressives started to have a conversation about reaching out to religious values voters?
I don't see it that way at all. I don't vote based on bullshit values, I vote based on what I perceive to be traits of the best candidate for the job, coupled with any and all ideas that will forward the progressive agenda. There is no shame in calling yourself either a liberal or a progressive...no shame at all. I don't want "values voters" dictating a progressive agenda, because by default, today's values voters are looking for a regressive, exclusive agenda. Anyone who hates woman having rights over their own bodies, teh gays and anyone else who differs from their own little world view is not who will vote for a progressive agenda, anyway.
Man...I don't wanna go shopping.

The Islamist militia that controls much of southern Somalia has said the world must help it combat Ethiopia, which it has accused of invading the country.
Islamist leader Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys said the international community must help it fight what he described as Ethiopian interference.
The Islamists' defence chief meanwhile urged Muslims worldwide to join a "holy war" against Ethiopia.
Ethiopia denies its forces have taken part in recent heavy fighting.

Of course the Brits (and the Europeans generally) are aggressively secular.
They were smart enough to throw out their wingnuts three hundred years ago and ship them over here, where we're still paying the price.
Why do you think they laugh up their asses at us whenever we go into a moral panic a la Monicamania?

Well, the Brits aren't aggressively secular in the constitutionally-dictated way the French are. It's just that Anglicanism is tea-with-vicar religion, and Catholicism is either working-class Irish/Italian or upper-class bells-and-smells, and Methodists make gingerbread.
Fundies are embarrassing to Brits.

This can only be good news for the Republicans.
Republicants will probably say that it is right to have fewer Dems on the talkshows now that they are the majority... Republicants will frame it as giving themselves (the "underdogs") a chance to speak... they won't say anything about the fact that the talk show imbalance existed before the Nov. elections...

I saw it at Media Matters, steve simels, but I'll be damned if I can find it again over there. It happened Wednesday.
Plus, it now seems that the judge in Libby's criminal trial read her the riot act for her appearance with Matthews.
Here's a bit:
MATTHEWS: The D.C. jury sitting in this case of Scooter Libby, if they were to learn that Joe Wilson had somehow put out the word that his wife was an undercover agent before Scooter Libby said anything to anyone, wouldn‘t that mitigate against his guilt?
MELANIE SLOAN, EXEC. DIR. OF CITIZENS FOR RESPONSIBILITY & ETHICS IN
WASHINGTON: No, because the issue is not anymore what Mr. Libby may have said regarding Mrs. Wilson. It is that he lied in court, that he lied to the grand jury, that he lied to the FBI, and that‘s what Mr. Libby is being charged with.
MATTHEWS: Do you think a jury would still find him guilty if it was clear that he was not the first to leak?
SLOAN: I think a jury could easily still find him guilty without being the first to leak, because that‘s not what he‘s being charged with. He is not charged with leaking, he is charged with making false statements.

Matthews is such a git.
Sloane is exactly right...the trial is about things that happened long after the alledged leaks, and the reason that the defense wants to supoena Wilson is part of an obfuscation campaign. It's what these motherfuckers DO.
I can't imagine why Sloane was repremanded by anyone for stating what she stated.
