David Gergen coming up on Hardball

[CatWoman]

to discuss the Berger, er, whatever.

Gergen has been consistenly fair and supportive, by the way.

[MissB]

1. Thank you for the heads-up! (nt)

[Cush]

2. kick

[CatWoman]

3. Tom

:hi:

beat ya!!!

there's a first time for everything :D

[Catt03]

4. I really dislike Chris Matthews

[CatWoman]

6. same here

x(

[MissB]

7. Yes, I wasn't too pleased while listening to what he said to

Berger's chief of staff. It was almost the "when did you stop beating your wife" line of questioning.

[MissB]

5. I believe he is innocent

and this affair is much more innocent than it looks.

I've talked to Sandy, I've talked to his lawyer. I've worked with him, he is a friend.

Was down in the bunker on Dec 31, 1999 to help prevent terrorist attack (LA airport).

Listening to the Republican response and the Democrat response today. This election is getting ugly.

[Catt03]

8. Gergen said he was a "hero" in this war on

terrorism

[MissB]

10. He was coming out clearly in Berger's corner

He just pointed out that the investigation started in October, he sat down with them in April and haven't heard from them in weeks.

9. Blankely (WashTimes) SAID VERBATIM WHAT A RWINGER

caller said on C-span yesterday morning. Identical, with citing the number page of different papers covering the news.... hmmmmmmm.

[MissB]

12. talking points are true if you say them enough (nt)

[LittleApple81]

19. No. what amazes me is that this woman cited the SAME pages

pm the papers that this guy did. And the news had just gotten out the night before. I sincerely doubt that a regular Rabid Rwinger calling C-Span reads all those papers to know THE PAGE NUMBERS just as Blankley cited them.
Do they have groups connected to blanket every media outlet and send them the talking points at 4 a.m.?

[MissB]

21. Probably. Does our side? Probably not (nt)

[spanone]

17. What would you expect from the Washington Times??????

[gratuitous]

11. How's Tweety reacting?

Or is he in the corner of those who think this is a national security crisis? The generous, forgiving Christian side of me would like to think that Tweety's doing this with Gergen to expose this little teapot tempest as no big thing, but the cynical realist part of me figures that he's going to keep thumping on this one for no particular reason.

[MissB]

15. Well, if you watched the previous 15 minutes

while he was questioning Berger's chief of staff, I'd say the latter.

[RummyTheDummy]

16. I knew Tweety would become totally consumed by this

Yesterday when he had Ann Lewis on. Lewis said something to the effect that this would be a 2 day story. Tweety bristled at that and seemed genuinely offended.

[CWebster]

13. I hope he kicks the squealing, sputtering tweety's ass

After he just pulled the snarling acton his previous guest. It doesn't seem to impact on these media punks that they gave the most criminal administration in history a pass. May history view them through the harsh lens of retrospective regrets.

14. Memo to Faux News

David Gergen is what "fair and balanced" looks like.

[spanone]

18. Yea, a conservative that makes sense. What a concept.

I remember when politicians were able to discuss matters without yelling or name calling. Gergen is a throw-back.

[Catt03]

20. Matthews and the rest of the media who continue this

absurd conversation about socks, the color, etc, should be ashamed of themselves.

One of the most important reports to be released to the American public will now be downplayed so we can debate Berger's socks.

[RummyTheDummy]

23. Which is what BushCo. wanted

Total news black out of what really matters most.

[spanone]

22. Christ! This Blankely fool is an ASS.

[Catt03]

24. Gergen just got tired of the nonsense...

Boy, did he ever shut up Matthews and Blankley

[shoopnyc123]

25. Yea, Gergen was great...

but I can't believe that the whole HOUR was devoted to it. Liberal media my ass!

[Shopaholic]

26. Matthews has got a hard-on for this story. . . .

he won't drop it. I could tell tonight he was really digging his heels in where this story is concerned.
