DU Office Pool
Which 'liberal' mediawhore punditwhore or whoreleader will be the first to regurgitate the fascist framing that the anti-bush speeches at Coretta's funeral were inappropriate, uncalled for, out of place, and requiring of an apology?

p.s. tweety doesn't count.

14. She opposed the war in Iraq
In her latter years, Mrs. King was an outspoken critic of the Iraq war and supported many social causes, saying that her husband had died fighting for the rights of all people. She was seen as a quiet force, presiding over seminars and speaking publicly on global issues.

2. Bill O'Reilly's already pushed his "self-inflate" button...
...and when the bag is full he'll start spluttering all over the cameras. I don't know his broadcast schedule, but you can bet it'll be in the first 2 minutes of his next airtime.

helpfully,
Bright

4. yes but it has to be 'one of ours'.
I know tweety and o'lielly and shawn and wolfie are going to rag on it. They don't count. I wanna know which of ours is going to internalize the talking point, run it around their empty skull, and decide to regurgitate it.

11. ohyeh.... missed that... Well, in that case...
...my money's on Landrieu.

She's fully recovered from her momentary post-Katrina sanity episode by now.

chastenedly,
Bright

15. Indeed she has quite forgotten
that 5,000 of her people are damn well missing and her jewel of the delta is ruined.

12. Katie Couric , Mara Liasson, Cokie Roberts
To name three who used to be ok but sure have gone off the beam. Katie is the worst but Cokie is a close runner up.

13. Excellent - I can hear
each of them tut-tutting in full suburban mom dismay over this outbreak of ghetto bad manners. Cluck cluck cluck.

19. No, I strongly doubt it
Dan Schorr may be an old fart, but he's good. He's impressed me but I must say I am not listening to NPR anymore, since it was hijacked by Bushco. Maybe the bodysnatchers got him, too.

21. I've always liked Daniel, but when I last listened to NPR he sounded like
he'd been partially bodysnatched. Could have been a one-time thing though. I don't listen to NPR news much anymore either since the BushCo takeover.

22. I don't know, he just seems too old
to care what the hell they do to him at this point. I hope I am right. I mean, at a certain point in your life, unless you feel you have to will your heirs unlimited funds, you don't have anything else the repubs can take from you if you go up against them. And Dan is in the position of doing that.

Giving up NPR was a sad thing in my life, I must say!
