Sarah Palin, of course. 400 pages in 4 months. Somehow she fit it in in-between Facebook blasts, and criticisms of our government on foreign soil. Chinese soil. God that girl’s entertaining..

This Roman Polanski story is really getting outrageous with the Hollywood elite and some Liberals actively defending a guy who raped a 13yo girl!!!
From Whoopie Goldberg “it wasn’t rape rape” to The various Huffington post blogs with titles like..”“Roman Polanski understands women”to others like Woody Allen signing a petition demanding his release..(ok I can understand why he would support Polanski).LOL!!..it really shows the bizarre values the Hollywood crowd has..basically saying if you a great film director then raping a little girl is excusable.
But atleast many on the left aren’t having any of this and are just as outraged as us on the right..on the fore mention Huffo post the readers there aren’t buying it and are revolting against the HP.
And I just heard Rick Sanchez on CNN read Whoopie the riot act on her comments…just to make it clear…DRUGGING AND RAPING A 13YO GIRL IS NOT OK NO MATTER HOW MANY GREAT FILMS YOU HAVE MADE AND THOSE DEFENDING HIM SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES!!!!
I really hope there’ a backlash on these people who are trying to excuse his actions.

The Bernie Goldberg and Bill O’Reilly back-and-forth over Fox News and the more doctrinaire (my word) conservatives on the network was pretty interesting. A cable news network that is willing, even briefly, to look at itself, to examine its own biases is welcome. And long overdue.
For those that missed it, Goldberg talked about some of Fox’s personalities (he gave no names) and their mixing of news and opinion:
Don’t pretend that you’re being objective. Don’t go on air, and I don’t mean you, I mean others on this network. Don’t go on the air and say these tea parties are a cross section of America. They are not a cross section. Don’t pretend to be a journalist if you’re not a journalist.
About darned time.

No kidding. Goldberg said that? What alternate universe did I just enter?

Chris Mathews’ hangup about the pronunciation of Dick Cheney’s last name has reached OCD proportions. Now he’s determined to clarify to the world that Cheney and his daughter pronounce it differently from each other. He brought it up several times yesterday, and again just now. Chris…no one cares!
September 30, 2009 at 2:58 pm
No kidding. Goldberg said that?
And more. It was pretty clear he was firing some shots at Beck and Hannity and the cheerleading by others during the 9/12 demonstrations. O’Reilly put up a, to me, half-hearted defense but not much more. How could he really? Some of the stuff they broadcast is really absurd.
This is really a great opportunity for Fox to solidify it’s cable lead and clean up its reputation by reining in the crazies over there. Ailes is obviously a very smart guy but I wonder if he’s willing to risk things by doing so?

No way bro. Ailes is smart enough not to. ‘Crazy’ = ratings.
September 30, 2009 at 4:56 pm

Bernie Goldberg’s point (and O’Reilly clearly agreed) was that it’s ok for the Becks and Hannitys to put out whatever opinions they want, but it’s not ok to present any of those opinions as established true facts.
He’s right.
September 30, 2009 at 5:38 pm
Beck has criticized Hannity & Beck numerous times on O’Reilly’s show.
He’s actually very even handed in his criticism, though he’s a conservative & usually (justifiably) targets douchebag liberals.

Some people around here might appreciate this one.

I’m thinking she’ll do just fine and probably prefers being misunderestimated.
September 30, 2009 at 6:23 pm
Indeed, it is part of her strategery.

New ownership coming for NBC, CNBC, and MSNBS? Comcast is working on buying NBC Universal from GE.

No sweat. Most of us speak “bigred” now.
September 30, 2009 at 7:24 pm
He’s more easily translated than some.
September 30, 2009 at 7:30 pm
I wish there was a way I could easily convey a “scratching-my-chin/suspicious-pondering” gesture on this blog thingy.
September 30, 2009 at 7:33 pm
Or the ‘gazing-suspiciously-over-your-glasses-ala-Charlie Gibson” thing.
September 30, 2009 at 7:40 pm
If I had been doing that interview instead of Charlie Gibson, that gaze over my glasses wouldn’t ave anything to do with suspicion.
September 30, 2009 at 7:45 pm
That’s why he makes the big bucks, and we comment on media-blogs.
September 30, 2009 at 7:53 pm
Another innocent thread…
Or as Al would say…something in French.
September 30, 2009 at 7:54 pm
Better than Latin…slightly.
September 30, 2009 at 8:06 pm
You two are makin’ fun outta me. yeah, I would too.
September 30, 2009 at 8:11 pm
You’re our favorite ‘Al’ on this whole blog. Bar none.

Larry King says the book in which Mackenzie Phillips wrote about bangin’ her dad is a “must read”. I say the channel his show is on is a “must change’. I’m thinking a MythBuster rerun.
September 30, 2009 at 8:25 pm
“Bar none” is a close resemblance to the mathematical symbol for “empty set”. Hummph.
September 30, 2009 at 8:28 pm
You know, a person can be too smart for their own good. Luckily, I’m not.
September 30, 2009 at 8:43 pm
I’m just stuck in the boring “wait” part of a “hurry up and wait” kind of thing without a good book handy. Not complaining, though.
September 30, 2009 at 8:46 pm
Better no book than Mackenzie Phillips, eh?
September 30, 2009 at 8:47 pm
Eh!

September 30, 2009 at 8:51 pm
You’re killin’ me, Al…as usual.
September 30, 2009 at 8:53 pm
He’s got that ‘internal obscurity’ going on. I’ve seen it before.
September 30, 2009 at 9:08 pm
Maybe Sean Hannity will get Mackenzie Phillips as one of his panelists.
September 30, 2009 at 9:17 pm
– panelists –
That’s just crazy enough to happen. Along with Ted Nugent, Randall Terry, and a member of the Temptations. Preferably one of the dead ones.
September 30, 2009 at 9:23 pm
- just crazy enough –
You read it here first.
September 30, 2009 at 9:31 pm
I should be a booker for that show. Fistfights like Springer.
September 30, 2009 at 9:46 pm
…and a member of the Temptations. Preferably one of the dead ones.
I’ll have what she’s having. Leave the bottle…
September 30, 2009 at 9:49 pm
Plenty smart and witty so I’m sure you could talk anybody into doing that show. But you’d have to move to NYC and I doubt you’re rude enough.
September 30, 2009 at 9:50 pm
Born in NY. Got my rude packed out in the garage somewhere…
September 30, 2009 at 9:57 pm
- one of the dead ones –
Book John Phillips on Hannity, too. He can sing the “My Girl” with the dead Temptation. Get Mama Cass while you’re at it. I want to know how she choked on a ham sammich.
September 30, 2009 at 10:10 pm
Mackenzie Phillips. How starved-for-attention must one be….
September 30, 2009 at 10:23 pm
Happy test results and easy-to-treat are just two of my favourite things…
I might make it home in time to watch a slightly DVR-delayed “Red Eye”. Mackenzie Phillips better not be the Gregalogue topic.
September 30, 2009 at 11:42 pm
You people…
September 30, 2009 at 11:43 pm
I wanna know about his ‘happy test results’. Could be interesting.
