reich wing Friday on C-Span
why do I bother to watch on Fridays? Brian Lamb has that wing nut John Podhoretz from the NY Post on blowing all of the karl rove inspired propaganda. :puke:

1. Do you have a DVD player?
Do you have a good video rental nearby?

Maybe you could make a regular thing of watching a good doc if you have the time on Friday mornings, instead. Uncovered--the War on Iraq, Control Room, etc.

3. I just turned
it is sickening how Brian shuts down the anti-bush** folks with impunity.

I have seen that Documentary on the Sundance Channel and it is excellent.

5. Can anyone have any doubts that Lamb is a right wing hack???
Edited on Fri Aug-05-05 07:51 AM by Donailin
To repeat myself every time I comment on C-span: Lamb is as non-partisan as Limbaugh. He's just much more subliminal in his POV.

I used to listen to WJ every single day, but not anymore. I can think of only one day this entire week where the opposing POV was presented, and that was on Wednesday when a pacifica radio reporter was a guest. This asshole they have on now from the NYpost sees anti-semitisism everywhere.

I'm just so frustrated. Did Lamb even mention the Novak walkout today? Novak has been a frequent guest on WJ before and after his act of treason.

6. Podhoretz is a big fat fucking liar
What is that he said? "Donald Rumsfeld is not a neocon. Dick Cheney is not a neocon."

Oh yea and he forgot to mention that Wolfowitz and Perle are the architects of Bush's foreign policy.

This guy is a fucking traitor.

7. I saw it. How about the obvious fucking point:
Bush Cheney Rice are OIL people. The policy makers; wolfowitz, Pearle, Epstein, Rosen, Kagan, Kristol, Bernstein, Schmitt, Cohen etc. --ALL signatories on the PNAC's "Rebuilding Americas Defenses" http://freedom2008.com/blog/archives/PNAC/PNAC.pdf


It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out what's going on here. .

9. I've pretty much stopped watching C-SPAN.
I used to watch it quite a bit but lately it seems they've taken a hard right. I've noticed that, for instance, if they have a Repub guest on WJ, he/she is the only guest. If they have a Dem/lib guest, they always have one or two Repug guests with him/her to counter whatever they have to say. Gee, that's the same way Faux and MSRNC do it. No surprise there I guess. Then Wednesday evening I was flipping through the channels and C-SPAN had some guy from the Young American's Foundation (I think) talking about how torturing people was a good thing. It was sickening. I'm not sure how long he was on but everytime I went back to C-SPAN he was still there. Ugh. It seems every time I tune in to C-SPAN they have some right-wing hack on spewing misinformation. If I wanted to see that, I'd just watch Faux. I don't know what has happened to C-SPAN lately but I've pretty much stopped watching. The last thing I needed was another right-wing channel on my TV.

10. They aired quite a bit
of the Young American Foundation Conference that was held all week in the D.C. area. Novak and Coulter were among the featured speakers. It was quite a hate feast-teach your children well.

11. That Podhertz was hard to watch
He cut off one caller to say he cannot listen to anti-semitic bilge.
Then when he went to explain how no jews are running this administration, he failed to name any of the PNAC bilge. Yeah, nothing but good ole Christians dragging this country down. I think Cheney was a signatory to PNAC, so that would make him an official Neocon.
