Why does CNN even show Crossfire?
I don't understand why even make a big effin deal about having a "liberal" on with a "conservative".

Basically Paul Begala is a lame duck and he is no better than Alan "I look like Chuky" Colmes from Faux.

That KiKi lady (Dem Spinster), couldn't win an argument with a blind deaf mute amputee.

I know I said I wasn't going to watch CNN but I figured that Paul Begala could put an effective argument forth with the Explosives story and he played dummer than Chimpy during the first dedate.

1. I have never been able to understand that show
It's like a half hour of mind suck. Absolutely nothing gets accomplished on that show.

2. But why do the Dems just lie down and allow them to run over them
I'll never understand. Maybe because I've had to fight almost every day of my life. But I don't just lie down and allow people to run over me.

6. Because if liberals actually speak up,

like Larry O'Donnell did on "Scarborough Country" a little less than a week ago against John O'Neill, they get chastised for it the next day. I wonder what sort of memos he received from his bosses after that appearance.

I think Pat Buchanan said on the Monday show after that appearance something like, "That was so rude to our (Republican) viewers. That's not the way to disagree!" It's the typical Republican double standard where the Republicans only like the shout downs when they're the ones doing the shouting.

3. I usually don't watch Crossfire anymore
I did today. Big mistake. Neither Paul nor Kiki was up to the challenge or armed with the facts about the explosives. I wasted a perfectly good half hour.

Could they possibly find less enthusiastic Democrats anywhere?! They're like the Alan Colmes of CNN and MSNBC. These stations love having on strong Republican voices but the Democrats they have on are so often these feeble people who don't want to stand up for their beliefs (or don't have any strong beliefs in the first place.)
