Get pictures of those journalists failing to follow the law by refusal to stand, face the flag, and place their hand over their heart, when the National Anthem plays.

  Shame, it is the only thing that affects them. See SNL shame entry on wikipedia on shaming journalists into acting properly.

if y'all are as disappointed as the (L)msm is that N'orlinns, isn't gonna get smashed for a second time?

Meanwhile, watching live FOX shots of N'orlinns, the streets are as empty as a demolibs head, no intelligent life to be found anywhere (does that include the reporters who are standing outside??)?

Anyway, seems some people have learned from the past, maybe there is hope after all.

(sorry I had to take a dig at the lefties, but what with their idiot ideas and statements about Palin and daughters . . . .)

There is no sense in being stupid, if you can't prove it! - my dad V

From my local paper in Iowa, a plea from a columnist to quit picking on reporters.  They're really trying!

When you put the clowns in charge, don't be surprised when a circus breaks out.

"Children are the most precious and promising ingredient in this mixed-up world you live in down there on Earth. Trig is no different, except he has one extra chromosome," --Governor Palin, writing to her family about her new son.

“Look, I got two daughters — 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby." -- Senator Obama, speaking without a teleprompter.

Hey gang, just wanted to blow my horn for a minute. 

As some of you already know, I started a blog that makes fun of liberals, especially Ecofascists. I went to do some editing a few minutes ago and could not believe what the stats were telling me, so I did some checking. Check this out...

Yep, can you believe it, my site got a mention on a Fox News Blog ( Day 2: Here Come The Hurricane Crazies.).

Ok, back slapping over. I had to combine The Hurricane Crazies with the latest Sarah Palin update due to there not being enough hours in a day. You can read both at... Sarah Palin Special Edition #3 - Combo

Loved the RNC's response ... "It's a personal family matter and it should be left as that". They also said McCain knew about it.

Agreed. Whenever the ahole MSM brings it up ... a short, quick answer "It's a personal family matter. Next question."

I'm glad the hurricane is VERY weak for this time of year, still a killer tho.

I heard on the radio it snowed somewhere up north, I couldn't find any snow views on the net.

Just when is the RNC going to start? You guys are up there just tapping your fingers.

Hey I'm glad you fella's are covering the convention there live...

Just wondered if any of you caught the Politico/Yahoo politics discussion this morning with the live audience in St. Paul...I really enjoyed a lot of it for the most part...Tucker Carlson, Rick Davis abc news, A. Huffington, Mark Halperin, plus Peggy Noonan   and John Harris leading the way. 

I liked the line about some writer for The Politico where he ended it with saying he hoped McCain isn't a drag on the ticket when it came to Palin.

I searched for it on the Politico site this morning and couldn't find it.

Tucker's lines about Palin were also hilarious!

Huffington as usual was the big-mouthed drag.

What was the Bounce Convention viewers for Biden from Deleware last week ?

How many viewers from Alaska will tune in this week ?

That might be a wash...but.....

I would think the Palin interest goes beyond Alaska, and WAY BEYOND Delaware "Nation wide" for Palin, and way beyond the Stanton Pennsylvania block for Biden. 

I feel a BOUNCE coming for the Republicans.....

The Republican Convention will be Televised !

Since it is open thread, just wanted to chime in with an observation off-topic:

CARROLLTON, Texas —  Maria Martinez' attempt to land a cafeteria job at a suburban Dallas hospital got her arrested, jailed and deported.

She did use a counterfeit social security on her application to Trinity Medical Center, but her relatives and supporters wonder whether the hospital overreacted by calling the police.

"For an employer to go ahead and take it upon themselves ... to report that is unusual," said immigration attorney Kathleen Walker. "There's no obligation on my part to go call law enforcement. For an employer to go ahead and take it upon themselves ... to report that is unusual," said immigration attorney Kathleen Walker. "There's no obligation on my part to go call law enforcement."

I can't believe this! Overreacting just because someone used a counterfeit social security number?!@&! WOW! I wonder what would happen if I, a U.S. citizen, used a counterfeit SSN? Would someone call the police? And then would someone come to my defense and say that this was an overreaction?

What is this nation coming to, when this type of response is now considered an overreaction and is to be condemned. I am boiling mad right now. Sorry for the rant.

I hope that NewsBusters has the opportunity to analyse the program that was on CSPAN this morning titled Politics and the Republican Convention. The banner above the title read Republican Nation Convention.

What is strange about the program label is that this CSPAN program had nothing to do with the Republican Convention. The Politico sponsored it and a number of issues were discussed including old vs new media, global warming, Keith Olbermann, and the media's objectivity (or lack of).

The journalists on the stage were packed with liberals. They consisted of Arianna Huffington, ABC's Rick Klein (formerly of the Boston Globe, a NY Times publication), Tucker Carlson, Peggy Noonan, and a well-known Time magazine senior editor whose name escapes me. The Politico's John Harris moderated the one hour program.

The audience consisted mainly of  St. Paul, Minnesota citizens, not people attending the Republican Convention as CSPAN implied by the program title. Two of the audience members who asked questions were supporters of Ron Paul and Cynthia McKinney, who is well-known for striking a Capitol Police officer. She also introduced articles of impeachment against President Bush before she was defeated in her House re-election.

As she always does, Arianna Huffington dominated the conversation. Among the things she said that unfortunately were never rebutted by anyone on the stage was that Global Warming is beyond debate, Keith Olbermann is a fair and balanced journalist, and the media was in the tank for George W. Bush prior to the war in Iraq.

What surprised me the most was that the only true Republican conservative on the stage, Peggy Noonan, turned out to be a VERY BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. She seemed to me to be in a state of rambling incoherence most of the time, and when she did speak clearly she said (1) that reporters should be centrist in their reporting like Brian Williams (I kid you not) and (2) She longed for the 'old' days when we had the three powerful networks and Walter Cronkite.

As for Tucker Carlson, he refused to speak negatively in any way about Keith Olbermann.To his credit he attempted to argue with Arianna Huffington at times, but he was no match for her forcefulness.She is brilliant at the art of interruption.

All in all it was another hour of liberal tripe labeled by CSPAN as part of the Republican National Convention. Unbelievable!

The Drive-By media continues to sacrifice ethics and morals for the greater cause: This time for the Election of a Democrat to the Presidency of the United States.

Thanks Blonde. I got through this one 100% OK. I know you are totally familiar with these things. Knowing that friends are praying for those hurt by these storms is the greatest comfort of all.

Congratulations to Sarah Palin on the expectation of her first grandchild.

She will soon realize one of the peculiar laws of nature.

Perfection skips a generation and if you knew how wonderful grandkids are you would have skipped having kids and gone directly to grandkids.

Best wishes.

I will say nothing positive nor, God-forbid on this site, negative about this man.

It is clear that many of you apparently believe that John McCain is somehow a "friend" to conservatives, and that he will bend over backward to nominate conservative appointees and, more importantly, conservative judges to whatever positions require occupation.

Fine. Believe what you will, but I have apparently lost many friends here at NB due to the fact that I am not a supporter of the liberal John McCain.

From this point on, I will have absolutely nothing to say about the man.

-Dave.
