Will you give an "Amen" to a nominee for "Democratic Goddess of the Week"?
Her name is Kirsten Powers and she wins my heart and my nomination as Democratic Goddess of the week.


By now, we've all seen this video clip a brazillion times:


Well, in watching it and watching it, most recently on tonight's Olberman, it became increasingly clear just how devastating Ms. Powers really was. She SO totally rattled the Venomous Vamp that she is reduced to begging a true Girlie Man, the foppish Sean Hannity, for help.

If Goddess Kirsten wants me to have **her** baby, I'm willing to do whatever it takes.

Kirsten .... beat me, whip me, have your way with me. This week, you are the rockingest of the rockers!

Can I get an "AMEN!"?

4. No, I'll give a "Here here, well done" instead ...
I hope that Our Party has progressed beyond the "our babes are smarter than your babes" competition. (Probably not, but I can dream, can't I? :blush:)

This is a little insulting as "Beauty is fleeting but STUPID is forever."

Ms. Powers will be forever blessed with the attractiveness of intelligence. :-) :applause: :yourock:

8. Now see what you've done?
I posted a similar thread a while back about Helen Thomas. No one filtered *that* thread as you did this one.

I would have done this exact same thread with the exact same wording had *this* been Ms. Powers' photo:

15. No, I honestly think that you do not understand ... That's OK :-)
But that's cool. To each his/her own. :hi:

BTW Ms. Thomas (just like Ms. Powers) is a woman of AGELESS BEAUTY. ;)

17. I hope we haven't progressed beyond the point where . . .
We can have fun with our popular culture. Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm a guy so maybe I don't have the right perspective on this), but the comments here, while there is a sexual undertone, seem respectful and not out to objectify Ms Poweers.

16. Of course. "Crooks and Liars" is "Crooks and Liars," after all.

6. Coulter: "Afghanistan is going swimmingly". Kirsten: "No its not."
Now that's a plain-speaking Dem. She was fantastic.

12. And do you know what was really cool? The Fox audience got an
opportunity to hear Kirsten and Michael Brown slam home the reasons Il Dunce is at fault and complicit. It was like a train wreck watching Coultergeist, but was refreshing to hear the Dem voice on Fox for a change!

27. That's what amazed me...
When the bitch-slapping started, the producers allowed Kirsten a live microphone and did't no to commercial. That must have assumed that Coulter would have some devastating comeback, so they let it go on.

Somebody probably lost their job over this. Letting viewers hear an alternative opinion. The idea!

19. Kristin Powers - the Anti-Coulter!
Finally. The RW has been presenting their message in attractive female packages for awhile. Why? Because they want to win the easily manipulated white male audience. She is dangerous, actually. I don't know why Fox is giving her exposure like this, but if progressive liberals like Kristin continue to get media oxygen, things are going to change.

20. You bring up an interesting angle .......
Maybe Fox is considering redcorating in advance of the upcoming Democratic landlside? After all, for them, its about viewers, ratings, and money. Newsotainment.

21. If you read her blog....
You realize she is more in the centrist wing and semi-supports Lieberman. However, she realizes that Liberman lost because he failed to talk in a respectful language to Democrats who have legitimate concerns about Iraq. So I like her.

28. Maybe Sparkly will have
something to say about that!

I had heard there was a substitute for colmes but I had no idea it was female power! }(

That was a very good point Michael Brown made about "The timothy mcveighs"! This is the good Michael Brown, I've not seen him before having not watched corporate news since 2002. The Dems won that one on!

Very Excellent!
