Goodling: Here are the "talkers" and R's"...
Have you ever wondered why the media are more than willing to have certain people ....make the network rounds....spouting the well-orchestrated Republican talking points?
(And, most recently. why is Senator Sessions or Senator Graham usually in that mix?)

(I am not sure how to link this, but it is in the article "Illusions" at http://firedoglake.com/ )

Here are some clips:

The electronic messages show tactics used by the "sitting administrations trying to manage a firestorm."

They urged the Justice Department to call Senator Sessions of Alabama to give information "about the placement of J. Timothy Griffin" and to request that he ask "helpful questions to make clear Griffin is qualified to serve."

A January 2007 e-mail message from Monica Goodling says "Here are the talkers...and R's, as well as a narrative that can be used by staff...helpful for all the "R's" to have."
(They hand out NARRATIVES to be used?)

This tangled Republican web is slowly unraveling. :applause: :applause: :applause:

1. This probably isn't new,
but these beasts have raised it to a loathsome level.
It is just too obvious that they have not a modicum of self respect nor do they place any value in honesty.

3. that is why she cant testify to ANYTHING, good little Xian Girl turned ReThug Wh*re, she did wrong
and broke the law knowing all along it was illegal,that is why she said she would say nothing-- because she knew anything she said would be a crime, she sold her soul to the pResident, a Cult leader that has his followers grease the Fascist Skids of his families mafia with their baby's Blood.

it was wrong to call the girls team what Imus did, but the Good ling girl is simply a Fascist Wh*re getting paid to dismantle the Constitution of the United states for a gODly Dictatter ..the term Whore came to describe the prostitutes who followed the armies in WAR.. she works for Bu$h's Mafia army arranged for their taticts,..aids and abets.. the title fits.

in The Revelation the Anti Christ is served by a Harlot..

5. It's like selling Amway
a script is essential. Any moran can use it effectively. It keeps them from thinking.

6. I saw through this on the day Monica Lewinsky hit the news
On that day, a team of "talkers" was deployed to push the story, hard. This team included a bunch of women from Scaife's Independent Women's Forum, which has produced Coulter, Ingraham, Barbara Olsen, Barbara Comstock, and a whole boatload of evil harpies intent on destroying the Clintons. Male talkers deployed included John Fund, Drudge, a bunch of members of the Federalist Society including diGenova-Toensing.

Most of these people were promoted or supported by Scaife.

I have always assumed that Scaife also infiltrated the "bookers" of the shows, putting his stooges in places where they could deploy the talkers and the Rs at a moment's notice.

Yes, Hillary, it was a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. And it's still going on.
