For crying out loud
I think the Condi 2008 Campaign has begun. Everytime I turn on Fox news she is having a press conference, EVERYTIME. No matter how small or how large a press conference fox cuts in. Condi must have some sort of Fox satellite remote

4. Oh, when there is nothing funny on in the morning
I switch to Fox. I really just crack up. It does not make me angry there is no way I could get angry when what fox says could be used to open up for Jerry Seinfeld. Fox and Friends is the best comedy of the day.

10. I disagree
We need to know what they are saying so that we will be ready to counter them. And we need to know what the millions of people who watch Fox are hearing. After all, Fox is the highest rated cable news network by far so even though they are a Republican talking points machine we need to know what they are up to.

13. To me they
aren't even a news network. Just a media whore network. If they were news they wouldn't be spouting these Bush lies. That's not what journalist do, is it not? Journalist are supposed to go after the truth not be paid by the Bush crime family.

3. It's called "Showcasing your Token"
She is still in the midst of her first trip abroad as SOS, but there's a novelty factor there that Republicans still feel pretty good about flaunting.

5. Why the hell are you even watching Faux?
:shrug: You say it is because it makes you laugh. Well, laugh or not -- Comedy Central and plenty of other comedy shows are on, so why watch bullshit propaganda? Sounds like you're a glutton for torturing yourself mentally... :shrug:

8. Yes
The Condie juggernaut has begun. Dick Morris is already on the bandwagon.

12. Hillary vs. Condi
I'm not completely sure we would be dreaming to think this.
I was recently in the bathroom of a republican household.
I tried not to look too hard but there was a magazine in there with big pictures of Condi and Hillary on the front and it seems this magazine was under the impression that the Dems are sure to run Hillary in 2008 and so the repubs would pretty much be forced to run Condi.
Sorry, I don't remember the name of the magazine. I've pretty much tried to block the whole experience.

14. Think of how funny it would be
if all of this is just rumors. I haven't seen much of Hillary in the public eye except the pro-choice thing not far ago and now the election thing but in the Ohio hearing thing she said she worked on that in 2000.
Should be interesting on what happens in 2006/2008. If Condi does run we have lots we can use against her and with Howard Dean on board as chairman I'm sure we'll be attacking more hopefully. Condi has done a lot of damage to herself. I just wonder how much of an attack dog Hillary is if she does run in 2008 and makes it through the primaries.
