I feel that deep down in his heart, he is rooting for Barack.

2. That suggests effigy doesn't have the same effect as marijuana. |
|

8. I want Ron Reagan for Obama's WH press sec'y |
|
Edited on Thu Jul-24-08 09:11 PM by tokenlib
Reagan would be a good one--he is a good communicator and personable. I also think it would be funny.
I've said this about Reagan for a long time--I like the way he comes across....

10. he was really at ease tonight, wasn't he? Watkins was quite the source of amusement for him. |

Edited on Thu Jul-24-08 09:10 PM by Gabi Hayes
he knows it's a game (has lived it all his conscious life), and I haven't seen him lose his cool. he might be good at something like that.

25. I've seen him lose his cool... |
|
...and it's a beautiful thing. :)
He lit into that moronic idiot Lars Larson one night so perfectly that I leaped out of my recliner to applaud.

18. Wouldn't that be karma for the dumb ass "Communicator" son to be the Communicator for Obama |
|
But the focus would probably be more so on Obama's words compared to Bush as President.

12. I enjoyed Ron and also hitting the Mute button every time Joe W spoke |
|
It's part of my effort to hear as little of those tools as possible. No talking heads until Keith and then only some of Dan's show. It's working out pretty nice.
Obama's speech and then watching the crowd spoke for itself. Ron was the icing on the cake. :D

17. did you see porkboy foaming earlier? I muted that, and laughed hard, |
|
as it looked like he was having a seizure
was hoping maybe he swallowed his tongue.
Watkins was fun to hear, cause he was so absurd. he always is, a caricature. got to give him credit, though. he's not a meanspirited golum, like most of the wingnut blowhards.

27. I didn't see it - Not watching these days until Keith is on |
|
It's a relief.
Btw, thanks for naming Watkins. I'd forgotten his last name. :hi:

The United States is in a lot of ways an experiment. Everyone in the room with it wants to see it work out.

15. Ron Jr also pointed out that McCain spoke to Canadians even though he is not President |
|
The Watkins guy was suggesting it was not the same as being overseas. What a lame response.

23. Young Ron has been skewering the right |
|
for some time now. I remember him making plenty of snarky comments during the 2004 Repig convention late night analysis. MSNBC would do well to use him more often. He's a smart and incisive guy. And that is a wonderful quote.
I wonder who RR 2 will be voting for? :evilgrin:
