Just another excuse to attack and smear O'Reilly and Fox.
Boulder, Colorado Happiest City In The US – What Say You Bill O’Reilly?
I'm not exactly sure what being the happiest city has to do with O'Reilly's comments about some schools.
I guess the Mutts need for hate knows no bounds.

Re your Rove/Dean link.
The opening sentence describes Rove "Karl Rove, President George W. Bush’s contentious chief of staff until 2007" (emphasis mine).
Howard Dean, however, is just good old Howard. He has done or said nothing that could ever be anything but unobjectionable mainstream fluff.
A minor point but so predictably ubiquitous.

More poop from the Dog Pound.
Hannity Refuses To Believe Mike Huckabee That Michelle Obama Is Not An Angry Black Woman.
This is a new one for the Mutts. Hannity quotes Michelle Obama with her own words and the Liar in Chief of News Hounds calls it "smearing".
Unlike the smearing that takes place on their own web site.

I came across this at your Scarf squable link, Johnny.
It is a hoot!

As for the scarf I don't understand how or why Conor would wear it on air. TV is a visual medium and some could take it as a covert message, rightly or wrongly.
Not good judgment on his part, I think.

No, J$P is based in international waters where anarchy prevails.

Huckabee asks First Lady: The "number one question" from fox colleagues "how do you have such wonderfully toned arms"
That's absolutely priceless....I'm sure they....friends/beck/cavuto/o'reilly/hannity/greta/kelly...etc...didn't ask that.

Re: "Hot & Not": You could also say Beckel did his Rex Ryan impression. I do not see Bob being fired.

No, and I don't think, given the somewhat restrained nature of the gesture, it should be. A public censure of some sort seems in order even without the MSM taking the ball and running with it.
BTW, I wonder what the reaction from the MSM and those bird dog types at MSNBC if Sarah Palin had done the exact same thing on a panel?
Just asking.

Over on Koldys Dump they have an almost daily posting of how many days in a row David Shuster of MSNBC has not Tweeted. Now that right there is some important news. I wounder if they ever thought he was too busy to Tweet? No, the little sheep all have their own brainless theories on it."
Gee, what a novel idea: Shuster is too busy to tweet.

Oh that jt, what an intellect! Of course the fact that Shuster has admitted that MSNBC has forbidden him to use twitter is nowhere near as important as t-bone's theory that he's just too busy! LOL!!!

No kidding. There isn't anyone at Newshounds who has a clue about how to have a reasoned debate. You'll notice that I offered a reasoned refutation of their defenses to Ellen's vile comment. Theirresponse? Accuse me of being a sock puppet, call me names, and accuse me of sexual improprieties. As Johny has demonstrated, Her Vileness never laid a finger on his real arguments; she only attacked straw men she had created. Only in the Bizarro world of News Hounds are adhominenm attacks and straw man arguments a valid rebuttal to a reasoned argument. What a bumch of mindless, meanspirited buffoons!!
