Vote for Ned Lamont, Get Rid of Donald Rumsfeld?

Even before the August 8 Democratic primary in Connecticut, Bill Kristol on Fox News Sunday made this interesting argument in favor of Ned Lamont.

And as for the whole "Fox News is biased". No Duh! That's why we watch it, because it reflects what we feel, much more than CNN or the big 3 networks. It's no secret.

HKSBOV,

I get comments from your "No Duh!" to strong denials from some who see Fox as God's truth. Plus, Fox uses the "fair and balanced" slogan. It would be more honest to call itself the "conservative network" or something. There's always bias in media, but Fox bias is a higher order of magnitude. That's what's so insidious about Fox's "poison the well" strategy. They take the truth that "everyone's biased" and try to turn it into "everyone's as biased as Fox."

Bush, won in 2004 by 4 MILLION votes, not the "loss" of, what was it, 300,000 votes in 2000? I'm in Texas and I voted for him just to give one more to the popular vote.

That's what this is all about. You can't believe he won re-election, never mind being elected in the first place and you HATE him for it. The whole "drag through the mud" quote is proof of that. Guess we'll see how the midterms turn out. ;)

HKSBOV,

I try not to hate anyone and I do not hate Bush. I just disagree with him about a great many things.

Bush had lowest victory margin for incumbent US President since 1916 (electoral college) or 1948 (popular vote) which just means the country is very split. That's what disappoints me most about Bush; he had a moment after 9/11 to use the unifying force of the event to do some great things that transcend politics. Instead he/Rove used 9/11 for partisan advantage.

Thx for the comment

Yes, what do you think of Obama & how he handled the SOTU with his bitch slapping of the Supreme Court?

The tendency to whining & complaining may be taken as the surest sign symptom of little souls & inferior intellects.You could have easily ignored, but youve emailed three times arguing . Oh, wouldn't the world seem dull & flat with nothing whatever to grumble at? Might try to learn to accept in silence minor aggravations, cultivate a gift of taciturnity & consume your own smoke with an extra draft of hard work so  those about you may not be annoyed with the dust & soot of your complaints

"Each has to do With the subject....I only address the comment or video"

I beg to differ. What you wrote had NOTHING to do with my comment OR the video. I made a comment about Bush, on a video about Sec. of Defense, you reply with Dodd. How does that make any sense to you?

I was being sarcastic when I asked if you were a spam-bot, so I guess I struck a nerve, huh?

I still don't know what I did to get dragged into your lunatic ravings, but please leave me out of them from here on.

[onstageagain]

ranting and raving? have you seen the news papers? Have you seen cnn? MSN , News week? Time mag... and dozens of others ... ranting and raving about Chris Dodd... I am in the business . Obama was ranting and raving about Bush on the internet about Bush from 8 yrs ago...and he won the election by doing it ... Obviously you got the message even if it was 1 yr ago. So... what next.  another american that can do nothing but wine...complain... and what about ?

[therrydicule]

O.k, that good information... And I thank you, I understand better this case.

But I think it a bit weird, because it's made a couple of time then I eared about crazy story in Countrywide. But this one is the worst one's.

[CavemanSynthesizer]

What are you some kind of spam-bot?

You're posting off-topic replies to 2 year old topics ranting and raving about Chris Dodd, as if he is the main reason our economy went sour.

Right-wingers are trying to pin the crises on Fannie mae, because they'd rather blame poor people than the rich white guys who engaged in the REALLY risky financial shenanigans. These guys were aided and abetted by Republican derregulation plans (glass-steagle) with which Democrats sadly cooperated.

[CavemanSynthesizer]

My comment was made 2 years ago - about BUSH - and you bring up Chris Dodd and Fannie Mae?

What planet are you from?

Is it the same planet where Obama is being blamed for the bad economy that existed before he even came into office?

BTW neither Fannie Mae nor Chris Dodd collapsed our economy, but they are convenient scapegoats because one is a Democrat and the other helps poor people.

Try Phil Gramm and the Glass-Steagel act, and you'll be a little closer to the truth.

Dodd's woven many tales of why he can't, won't or doesn't need to and never intended to release the documents from deals that will save him tens of thousands of dollars over the terms of the mortgages. The favors Dodd accepted from Countrywide sparked a Senate ethics investigation and may be part of a federal criminal probe into Countrywide's furtive, sustained campaign for influence in Washington.
