1. I've been wondering that too. |
|
I thought he was a conservative but last night he seemed to be one of "ours."

16. He's never been a conservative |
|
He may not be a model liberal, but he's never been to the right.

18. I am still not that cynical. I believe that he is truly outraged. He has |
|
taken it on as a personal crusade. Maybe he is an American first.

4. Al Qaeda has a base in Iraq? Then if they know that where |
|
the fuck is it? It's like the WMD argument. If Saddam had WMDs he would have used them when we invaded. that is a duh. :dem:

6. We MUST write and send applause and notice ! That is what in my |
|
opinion helped Keith Olberman continue to rise in MSNBC and help it float to the top as election news coverage channel. It is our collective thank you's that made IMO Dan Abrams take the help on the issues and declare himself as a progressive investigator.

8. Amazing how a rise in ratings brings out the "inner liberal"- it's great to see (finally) |
|
And long overdue. Welcome to the Blue Team Dan Abrams!

10. I don't agree with all everything out of his mouth, but Dan does seem to attempt to be even |
|
and I sense that he at least is trying to look at things objectively.

25. At first look, I thought she was that blonde, bloviating b****, Kelly ... |
|
______? and I cannot for the life of me think of her last name! She has sort of disappeared from the telly and this one has taken her place! On second thought, was it Kelly Conway??? I know you know her name!!!

19. He's getting better than Olbermann |
|
Before I get flamed, I mean the entire show. Olbermann is better when he focuses entirely on politics.

20. He has been excellent lately. |

In many ways I like him better than Olbermann. He is so smart and well informed and he doesn't let his guests get away with crap.
The which one is telling the truth segment is going to be great when we're down to one dem and McCain. I don't think he's going to let McCain get away with stuff.

27. and he just hit Mr. No Tie with a great zinging question |
|
"so you think that the most important issue - the ONE defining issue - showing whether the media is biased against Clinton is whether they are outraged that she hasn't released her tax returns?"
Yeah, as if we can't otherwise fathom how a family with one earner who makes millions each year on speeches, and both with best-selling books, comes up with $5 MM to loan her campaign...
Mr. No Tie was so surprised to be challenged that he couldn't even sputter out a coherent response...

that he is following up on the Don Siegelman story! I caught that segment tonight and was so glad to see it!
Keith O. endeared himself to my household by keeping track of atrocities ... and we watch when Dan A. does this.

36. Been saying the same thing around here too! |

I LOVE how he interrupted the repuke strategist - (who all seem to be blond) and said something to the affect "that is just wrong and you know it" while she continued on and on and on.
