1. She is dating a RePUG in the WH press office
So like Daryn Kagan she is a plant for the Rovers!

I sent MSNBC an email saying that she should disclose her association with the WH press office. It is a CLEAR conflict of interest.
She is an annoyance!

9. I don't think you are right on that
I think she is married to Jeff of Chef Jeff's. He has two restaurant/bars in Washington DC. The food is not bad, but a little pricey for what you get.

Maybe they split up

11. Get OUT! I love Chef Geoff's. Are you sure?
I remember reading (Washingtonian?) that her husband had gone to Divinity School (but did not go on to the Priesthood). Don't recall any connection to Chef Geoff's.

Damn. Hate their calimari though - it's got a sweet taste.

12. From her bio on MSNBC
A native of San Antonio, Texas, O’Donnell is a graduate of Georgetown University and received a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy. She also holds a master’s degree in international affairs from Georgetown. She lives in Washington, D.C., with her husband, a restaurateur.

16. From what I heard
One of my good friends (who is an intern at MSNBC)said they had seperated and she was dating this WH press office guy. That was about 4 months ago. I just sent my friend an email and I will find out if this is still true.

5. Why Do You Continue To Waste Time Watching Their Programming?
You know what you're going to get, yet you continue to watch, and then discuss their content....which is exactly what they want.

Here's an idea. Don't Watch! There are 100+ Channels to choose from, so pick something else. Watch the Game Show Network or something equivalent. You'll get better intelligence from watching a rerun of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, then you will from watching a Lame Ass show like Hardball.

Aside from Countdown, about 90% of the threads I see on these other MSM news shows tend to be negative. Take the hint...they're not interested in our kind, otherwise they would program towards us. I think you're just making them smile by continuing to watch and talk about them, rather than ignoring them completely, and acting like they don't exist. There is no intelligent thought eminating from these "news" shows, and I refuse to watch any of them....with the exception of Countdown.

20. Because it's great to work out to.
Really gets the blood pressure going, to push that last bit of energy out on that dumbbell, bike, etc.

Hitting the bike last night. Watched Norah give us Colleen Rowley (I appreciate what she's done, but she's terrible on camera) and yet another RW radio host (who says there's a ban on cloning; MSNBC has been cloning these RW radio hosts perfectly for the past few weeks).

Ms. Rowley barely spoke (partly due to the usual RW interuptions, partly because, like I said, she's terrible on camera) and the radio jock kept filibustering. Norah wouldn't reign him in. Imagine if Katrina vanden Huevel did that, Norah would have pulled a "Matthews" and cut her off immediately.

Then, what a treat, Pat Buchanan and Bob Shrum. Now we're pushing the bike hard. Pat's busy being Pat, but what a weasel Shrum is. Is this the best MSNBC can get for a democrat? Can't they get Randi Rhodes or Rachel Maddow for Hardball (they already have Ms. Maddow for Situation; might make sense to promote internally like they did for Scarborough when he started there) or are they required to use castoffs even Fox News wouldn't use?

Got the HR to 160. Felt great.

10. However, it is the most effective I've ever seen Bob Shrum...
He actually advocated for a timetable to come out of Iraq, I couldn't believe my ears!!!!!

He's always been way too DLC for my taste and he has never been an effective spokesman. He was really good tonight as he was up against Pat Buchanan. Shrum won big time!

13. She's pretty - end of story.

She is one of those beautiful female "journalists" who are much more focused on being glamorous "anchorwomen" who sound brainy than real journalists.
