   Even with his declining numbers Shep made the list. That’s the first time I’ve seen him on the list.

   Gabriel – Chris was on fire last night. It became a rout way before Final Jeopardy. The other lady was a pretty blonde from BBC America.

   She is pretty. If she didn’t have an accent FNC would hire her.

   Chuck Todd won Jeopardy, Clarence Page was 2nd & another guy i didn’t know was last. Only name i recognize for Friday’s show is Anderson Cooper.

   Bill O’s 8pm P2+ viewers still beating all of CNN’s on the list.

   Did any watch Bill O when he did the story on the woman he got 20 years for firing a warning shot at her hubby? The article i read online was short on details.

   Keep them ornery Brit’s away from the French. They might play footsie.

   G8 summit sleeping arrangements? That’s classified, White House says

   Still, not all of the bungalows at the secluded presidential retreat are the same size. So with a group of status-conscious politicians, who’s sleeping where?

   “The allocation system, of course, is classified. I really can’t go into that,” Donilon told reporters at a briefing on the eve of the summit.

   Everyday I look at the cable news ratings and see post blasting CNN, MSNBC on ratings. The reason FOX has higher ratings is because normal individuals watch CNN,MSNBC,HLN,CNBC. When this happens the numbers break between different cable news networks. Only one network for the crazies to watch. FOX… Also D.D the reason why postal employees are being laid off is because of rep making a company pay retirement packages for all employees in a 10 year period. What other companies do that???????????????????????????????????????

    “I never meant to insinuate that you were arguing over it,”

    Never took it that way. I will always look to the positive long before the neg.

    I don’t care what Jeff said about you, I told him he was wrong.

    Had to throw a Jeff out there since I haven’t seen him for awhile.

    Hannity must have read my email to him, he didn’t mention the Obama born in Kenya story. Drudge didn’t though he still has that story up.

    FBI Director Refuses to Say Whether 9/11 Mastermind KSM Is ‘Enemy Combatant’

    FBI Director Robert Mueller on Wednesday refused to tell a Senate committee whether confessed 9/11 terrorist mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM) is an “enemy combatant.”

    The Bush administration designating a captured terrorists as “enemy combatants” so that they could be detained in a military prison and tried by a military commission or tribunal rather than detained in a civilian prison and tried in civilian courts.

    Good Morning, Crew.

    Obama campaign to launch voting rights portal

    The Obama Administration doesn’t like the states new voter I.D. laws.

    The online tool — which will be live shortly — gives voters detailed state-by-state information on how and when to register. It also collects phone numbers and email addresses, offering to remind potential voters when to register. It also seeks volunteer attorneys to become “victory counsels” to help “voter protection efforts” across the country. It also has a Tumblr where voters can ask process questions

    It’s part of the stated Obama campaign philosophy of winning the campaign with ground-level organizing, rather than over the airwaves.

    Democrats look to California in bid to retake House

    With 25 seats separating them from the speaker’s gavel, Democrats have settled on a blueprint targeting nearly a dozen seats across the Golden State — a yawning figure that highlights the emphasis party officials have placed there

    Column: President haunted by record of broken promises and inflated expectations

    One arrives at such a low mark only after a thorough—and scientific—examination of the president’s record of broken promises and unfulfilled expectations.

    Read why @ the Washington Examiner

    GM’s Bailout Bucks

    Automaker gave seven figures to Dem lobbyists after bailout

    GM teamed with Navigators Global and the Podesta Group beginning in 2010 and soon arranged six-figure contracts with lobbying teams headed by Democratic bundlers Vin Roberti and Tony Podesta. Each earned top nods from GQ’s Monthly Power List soon after inking the GM contracts.

    obumbles lie? I’m so, so shocked.

    “The White House defended the practice of appending presidential biographies by saying it is common Web practice to provide links to ease navigation and increase traffic. What we have here is an Orwellian rewriting of history akin to the fictional Winston Smith doing it on a daily basis for the Ministry of Truth in George Orwell’s novel “1984.”

    “Inserted into the official bio of the late President Ronald Reagan was this lie: “In a June 28, 1985, speech, Reagan called for a fairer tax code, one where a multimillionaire did not have a lower tax rate than his secretary. Today, President Obama is calling for the same with the Buffett Rule.”

    When will Al, Jesse and Obama apologize for making this a racial issue? From ABC News: Two police reports written the night that George Zimmerman shot Trayvon Martin said that Zimmerman had a bloody face and nose, according to police reports made public today. The reports also note that two witness accounts appear to back up Zimmerman.

    examination of the president’s record of broken promises and unfulfilled expectations.

    The only person that has flipped flopped more than Romney is in the White House LOL…

    I been watching all those ad’s, and playing them in Obama’s own words is very telling.

    By the way remember the “Premiums won’t go up” and the “You can keep the coverage you have stuff”?

    WE got notice ours is going to double next year “IF” and only “IF” the hospital keeps providing it, they are considering dropping coverage and paying the “There won’t be a fine” FINE leaving the employees to be put in the Government Pool. In Kentucky we have a word for someone that feeds BS and the total opposite happens, but I’ll be polite in here.
