2. Along that line, we could petition Faux news to fire:
Brit Hume
Tony Snow
whatever that ugly guy is thats the white house correspondent
Hannity
Loofah boy
Cavuto,

the list goes on and on...

5. Love it, let's
start one asking Faux to fire loofah boy. We can use his recent phone troubles as the reason.

3. Just watched Mr Smith Goes to Washington
It all fits in. That movie is really old, but still rings true. They can't handle the truth.

4. The junta loves the power of the mob
as opposed to how they fear the power of freedom and free speech exercised by an informed citizenry.

6. One thing I like about Gregory,
you do not know what side of the political spectrum he comes from. He just reports it like he sees it and that is good. Damn good! He does not get wrapped up in all this fair and balanced bs. Hell, if a right or a wrong is committed, a right or a wrong is committed. Report it, and if it is a good story that has legs(Stacy Kebler comes to mind ;-) ) then keep on it. Need more like him, and not more Wolf the ironman blitzers....

7. It's an honored tradition in broadcasting to try to crack someone up
while they're on air. Maybe someone showed David that picture of * and the cow while he was on the phone with Imus.

9. Well I know who should be fired
Mr. Bill O'Reilly, and you what he may be after all! The other day on his radio he threatened a caller who just said Olbermann (in reference to the spat the two had recently) and cut him off. I can't believe him. That guy is just a bully. Thank goodness people are starting to finally understand this.

You know if the White House and other Republicans don't want to be criticized they shouldn't be doing anything wrong. You can't shoot the messenger in America.

I do have to say Mr. Gregory went a little overboard on the Cheney shooting thing. In addition no one (including him) focused on the real story: Cheney wasn't interviewed by the police until the next day! They don't absolutely have to tell the press everything they do, but they sure do have to tell law enforcement!
