Bob Schieffer calls Mehlman out on the Harold Ford ad

[CatWoman]

Face The Nation, Bob Schieffer wouldn't buy Ken Mehlman's "lame" excuses for running a racist ad against Harold Ford when he paid for it. He called into question the notion that Republicans hold all the cards when we're talking about "values" because actions speak LOUDER than slogans. Heading down the stretch to November 7th, this administration has shown America that "winning" is their core value. If Bob calls you lame, well—you're just lame.


SCHIEFFER: But, but Mr. Mehlman, the logic… if I think something is wrong but I take advantage of a law that allows me to take advantage of that, that's pretty lame, if I may say so.

1. Thanks for the link, CW. Now, can someone please tell me why Katie Couric...

replaced a venerated newsman like Bob Schieffer. Arrrgh!

4. Oh I agree.....

But I think Bob wanted to leave the job. I heard him on an interview were he said something to the effect that he was getting old and did not want to be the anchor.

3. Kick...I despise that rat bastard Mehlman.

5. Mehlman is disgustingly creepy.

He's one ugly mofo, especially that mouth of his. I hate to pick on anyone for looks, but he really is grotesque.
