1. Smarmy is an attitude combined with hypocrisy, in my book. Largent has it. Anyone who spent the
90's pulling off a character assassination of the CLintons and their morals along with other Congressional members, the networks, the papers, the guest experts and Lucianne Goldbert, Ann Coutler, Drudge, Isakoff, Starr and government paid FBI people, Mellon-Scaife, the Rutherford Institute and thousands and thousands more - the exquisitely organized and orchestrated Reublicans = hypocrites with attitudes. Purity - they loved purity and they were rotten through and through.

Ken Starr the prissy puff piece. I've spent two decades in anger at short stuffed hate filled, bigoted, arrogant, liars, and theft experts.

2. Largent has a lot of nerve....
...trying to match wits with Rachel. He should have just come clean, told the truth, taken his lumps and saved himself the embarrassment.

- Guess he's taken one too many hits to the head from back in the 'ol days in the NFL....

K&R

3. for anyone interested here is the Tulsa World article she refered too
http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?subjectid=16&articleid=20090713_298_0_WASHIN343305&rss_lnk=1

When serving in Congress, Largent also lived there and still participates in the group's weekly dinners and discussions.

"We are all very good friends. He (Ensign) was wandering off the reservation," he explained. "Our feeling is that if anybody does that and does it willfully that we are asking them not to live at C Street anymore."

Largent said each of the men who live in the house has given others "license" to confront each other if "there's something going on that shouldn't be going in someone's life."

---------

Love how it is ok for them to cheat willfully and stay in office but not stay at C Street :sarcasm:

6. Rachel ROCKS!
Don't forget folks - you can watch the Rachel Maddow show online: http://maddow.msnbc.com

This is 100% legal and high-quality video. Sometimes you will see a 30-second commercial.

The best part is letting MSNBC know that Rachel Maddow is bringing traffic to their website.

:kick:

8. both those senators are married
why are they living there instead of going home to their families? Am getting pretty sick of the double standard. One for their selves and another for everyone else. How convenient.
