[scheming daemons]

He lived for shit like this.

[apnu]

1. Yeah but he's an ass for the West Wing reference.

[K Gardner]

2. WTF was that schlepp talking about.. "LIFTED FROM AARON SORKIN".. shut him UP

[Cassandra]

8. As I just wrote in my post below...

I had those thoughts, too but I would never characterize it as "lifting". That's ridiculous.

[valerief]

3. Who cares? They should be talking about what AMERICA thinks.

Sheesh. They sicken me.

[Island Blue]

4. Did he really say "He lived for shit like this"?

:rofl: I'm guessing no, but that would have been funny.

[sandnsea]

I watched those ten seconds and switched it off

WTF was Brian Williams babbling about. God nothing gets through to these fucking idiots.

[President Decider]

5. BUMP for Big Russ ..... I loved the guy!

[Gold Metal Flake]

6. Russert would have been his usual asshat self.

[pdxmom]

7. Williams and Brokaw want so badly to find anything they can to criticize

this speech, but they know they'd look like idiots.

[CherokeeDem]

9. Brian Williams is a putz!

You could see the look on his face...he was not happy. Thank you Sen Obama for making him so pissed.

[ErinBerin84]

10. heh, Brokaw looked depressed

and he read the "statement" from the McCain campaign, which included the lies about Obama raising taxes for someone making 42,000, against off shore drilling (well, not anymore I guess, McCain...kind of), and cutting troop funding.


Chuck Todd says that from that McCain campaign statement, it seems like the McCain campaign was speechless, lol.
