councelor to the VP.

[Skidmore]

4. He's basically trying to sell any requests for documentation

of Roberts' work as unreasonable and partisan obstruction by the "extreme left, who are outside the mainstream." He's there not to provide substance but to undermine process.

He's a Liddy lookalike.

[rodeodance]

should be looked at. what the heck.

[rodeodance]

12. Well, anyone who knows anything about Feminists for Life knows it is

very Right Wing---and this guy just sits here and calmy says it is mainstream!---and the host just lets him do it.

[rodeodance]

15. I hope a caller in corrects this outcome misrepresentation!

[Binka]

13. Bing! Best Post Of The Day

What fucking unmitigated gall these fuck-sticks have.

[Skidmore]

14. "Mainstream" -- Stevie likes tossing that word around.

I wish someone would ask one of these R ideologues to define "mainstream" when the toss it out. Bet they couldn't. It's wordcrafting at its worst. Most of the time, I don't think these guys actually have a clue about the labels that their learn at their morning training sessions on verbage.
