Wolf throws everything but the kitchen sink at Wilson |
|
•Do you regret the photo?
•Did you brag about your wife at cocktail parties?
•Wasn't your wife a low-level operative?
Etc., etc.
Wilson hit back, in one case asking Wolf why he didn't ask * and others if they regretted posing for Vanity Fair war council photos, but he was forced to play defense by an Administration whore here.

3. good...it gave Wilson the chance to correct all the BS out there |
|
Now if only Fox news would have the balls to have Wilson on to counter their crap.
What I hate though is now Wolf has Bay Buchanan on to talk about Wilson after he is no longer there. Why not let Wilson defend himself against the GOP mouthpieces who are guilty of spreading the lies in the first place?

4. True - but Wilson, as usual, did a wonderful job in responding. |
|
He was calm, he had his thoughts collected, he was clear and he answered the questions truthfully and concisely. The more exposure he receives on the MSM the better- especially now that they are diverting the focus to the Supreme Court and bird flu.

and the only way to get them to change is to stop watching them altogether. I watched very little cable news prior to the election season last year, but have now washed my hands of them completely for their contemptible, lowest common denominator, spread the rumors and ignore the facts, coverage.
CNN used to be halfway decent at least some of the time--their international coverage was usually interesting--but in their drive to imitate the atrocious, awful, despicable Fox "News" Channel they've turned themselves into a bloody monstrosity, with the braindead Wolf Blitzer leading the way.

12. Is Wolfie actually supposed to be a "journalist"? |
|
I saw that...nothing but cheap-shot RW talking points disguised as "questions." It was disgusting! However, it was great to see Joe Wilson handle the situation with so much presence and dignity it made Wolfie look even MORE like a cheesy hack by comparison.

13. When is someone going to ask Wolf how long he's |
|
been on the Armstrong William's contract for Bushco?
Seriously...turn about is fair play here...it's time for Wilson or one of these interviewees to Ask him how long he's been a shill for the RW.
Ask him openly and in Mid-interview. It'll be caught on tape and while he gulps like a landed fish it can be passed around for all to see.
Sick of playing with one arm tied behind our back.

Did anyone see the interview when he was talking to Ken Mehlman and he was asking about those who opposed Harriet Miers?
He said something like, "These weren't loony Liberals...These were Good Conservative."
That comment made me think.
