Plz confirm what I just heard Saxby Chambliss say

[Lin]

on Hardball, ChrisM: did you attend a meeting of Repubs where a smear campaign against Sandy Berger was suggested? Kerry campaign issued memo today suggesting where this mess was born, Will you put this rumor of instigation to rest? S.Chambliss blah blah lielielieyadayada...then: "Uh, Rick Santorum did ask me to come out and TALK ABOUT THIS"

This admission flew RIGHT over C.M.'s head as he was -as usual- anticipating his next question, not listening AT ALL and says "So good that you set this straight blahblah"

Did I hear that wrong? Did CM just completely miss this admission? --sorry long, I'm just blown away by level of discourse....Lin

1. hm, how soon do the transcripts come out?

we should keep this kicked until we can see that

[AlCzervik]

2. Cheezus, Saxby has been whoring around

today bigtime, he was on Wolf Blitzer today acting like an asswad. He must be the attack wingnut dujour.

[peacetalksforall]

4. He was up early for his five minutes of C-Span coverage. And, he was,

shall we say, raising his voice abut Berger.

[tom_paine]

9. He is a Clone Senator, and as such owes everything to Diebold

and the Imperial family.

He will do as he's told. Nothing more. Nothing less.

14. Sen. Evildoer

[Mad As Hell]

3. Yeah.

If he admitted a coordinated smear on Hardball, I think that is very important, especially juxtaposed against the visit by Cheney and ? to the hill on Monday. That's right, let's say it clearly. A coordinated leak and smear campaign from the Administration.

[Shopaholic]

5. Transcripts should be up about midday tomorrow

[punpirate]

6. Rick Santorum passes up a chance to smear someone...

... himself? I don't believe it--it's a conspiracy. :P

[REVOLT823]

7. Yeah, you got it right

Flew right over his head, I was watching it as well. I used to like CM but lately he is being a bigger ass than usual. He should have immediately asked that scumbag Chamblis how he could make any determination since he had taken his marching orders from Santorum. Also, I thought Bergers fmr Chief of Staff (first name Mara), did an excellent job holding her ground against CM. He was really acting like an ass to her and making all kinds of wild-ass specualtive assumptions, and she cooly, very coherently knocked them all down. Compared to her CM looked like he was hyperventilating. I also couldn't believe the amount of misinformation coming out of CM's mouth, he is either very poorly informed or keeping this alive for the RW. He kept harping on the stuffing of documents down pants and socks, and about this being about hiding information form the Commission, when these accusations were debunked yesterday. Journalism has gone to hell in a handbasket.

8. Yea, saw Berger's Chief-Of-Staff as she was condescended to by CM, he said

at one point "you probably believe you're telling the truth" this after she said she knows Berger to be an honest forthright man, OMG C.M is such an arrogant @ss! :(

[onecitizen]

10. I think Saxby(what a name) is..........

lower than whale shit. He is one of the worse and has no conscience about absolutely destroying people with his lies. low,low,low.

[UCLA02]

11. Anbody who doesn't agree with you give them 2 words...

"Max Cleland"

But then you'll probably get two other words back atcha...especially if you're atlking to the vice president...

[REVOLT823]

13. Remember, this is the same shithead

that destroyed Max Cleland, a triple amuptee vet, with pictures of Max, Osama, and Saddam. Nothing is beneath this bastard.

[slor]

12. You got it...

I heard it too, and got pissed at tweety's failure to follow-up.
