2. He did and I didn't hear sarcasm in his voice. But I don't think he
believes that from what I have heard him say lately so I don't know what they hell he meant.

3. yep
...and he just ended by saying he felt better after talking with her and said "I really mean it."

Does he not know Comstock's background? She was the head of opposition research for the RNC until the election of 2000. She was a Scaife bimbette, trash-talking the Clintons. She's a hack.

7. Please refrain from believing the great defender of corporate media
lies and spin for the GOP and the pro torture dictatorship. The Bush blonde had like 20 more minutes taking time than the WaPo woman. Tweety is a right wing shill that pretends (once in a while) to be a Dem.

9. Exactly, although I tuned in as Ms. Cocco (WaPo) was having her say
and she was remarkable, even if she had little time. I think his final remark to B. Comstock was really uttered for Ms. Cocco's benefit, since she held her ground and let NOBODY, not even Tweety, interrupt her. She was the only one of the three who made sense and she held onto her right to speak as stubbornly as a dog refusing to give up its bone, despite relentless attempts by Tweety & Comstock to interrupt. And as far as I could tell, she also didn't interrupt anyone else. I was proud of her!

On the other hand, Comstock would not stop trying to talk above and interrupt her - a skill perfected by so many RW talking heads. She's as "good" at it as Tweety, and in fact, she did that to him frequently. Apparently, he doesn't mind being interrupted, but he doesn't like it when others don't allow HIM to interrupt THEM.

While I observed these dynamics, it reminded me that Tweety really thrives on sound bites and apparently doesn't tolerate allowing people to delve into anything with much depth.

For that reason (and a few others), IMHO Tweety exemplifies much of what's wrong with the MSM today.
