Why is CNN giving so much face time to Wm. Bennett?!
What a waste of oxygen.

Begala referred to Limbaugh as a "drug addled gasbag" (re the MJF comments), and Bennett felt the need to defend Limbaugh: "He just has a bad day sometimes".

5. Did you hear what he said about Santorum?
Bennett said something about Rick running for President in '08. We burst out laughing.

To quote Hubby: "The guy just got his ass kicked all over Pennsylvania, and Bill Bennett's talking about a Presidential run?"

What is Bill Bennett smoking?

6. It's an affirmative action deal.
Not enough compulsive gambling moral hypocrites on the air, so Bennett gets extra time to make up for it.

7. Let me ask everyone something? WTF has Wm. Bennett ever accomplished?
Edited on Tue Nov-07-06 09:20 PM by devilgrrl
Other than destroying public education and helping the nation get wired with the faux war on drugs? This idiot has never done a thing! Has he?
