Who are Rabe and Rebazin Roberts? If Steve and Mara criticized POTUS Clinton it was probably because of his welfare reform. How does this make these two any less liberal? Perhaps because Liasson appears on FOX News is evidence enough of her lack of liberal credentials, right? You are employing the Etaoin Shrdlu standard that states if you work at the WSJ or FNN you must be a conservative.

Was Tommy Roberts ever a substitute host for Diane Rehm? No? What was your point, again?
But thanks for illustrating Terry Gross' on air/off air invincible liberalism.
Drew Kelly:
As you stated on the first post.
"The more I study the facts, a lot of these debates are pretty straightforward. Anyone not capable of changing his opinion once the truth is shown, may have personal motive, but he/she is certainly not a person of integrity".
Does this include Barrack promises during the campaign and his first year in office that made all kinds of claims in passing his legistlation like the Recovery Act and Health Care Reform Act which most people did not want and still don't want? I believe Obama lacks integrity.
Ron Paul will be Dianes guest Tuesday. I cannot think of a guy I agree with more, it is a shame more people do not embrace his message.
Remember that episode of Star Trek where the character Lazarus was chased by his duplicate from an identical mirror image universe but made of anti matter. The anti matter Lazarus went insane because he could not stand the thought of the existence of the positive matter Lazarus and knew if he met his hated foe in one of the two universes face to face it would be the total annihilation of everything. Mr. Haun are you made of anti matter? The rest of the description seems to fit you.

You brought up Steve and Cokie as LIBERAL Hosts (Tee hee!!)
{{If Steve and Mara criticized POTUS Clinton it was probably because of his welfare reform.}}

In addition to her Fox Crap, a violation of NPR standards for outside appearances by NPR Staffers, She constantly violates NPR ethical standards on her NPR stuff!!

The point was that Cokie is a smart ass.

How on Earth does that illustrate Terry's, "on air/off air invincible liberalism"?
Although she did make the Queen of the Fox Network run out of the Studio like a scalded cat!!

Monte- wish I got a chance to respond to your comments earlier, it’s too late tonight.
I can tell you this much though- I don’t agree much with lot of your opinions but sure agree you’ve a right to them.
Mchaun- Get a grip man.
If you want to pick a fight with “Right Wing Nancies”, get on Fox blog threads, willa?
There‘s plenty of folks there who’s idea of a debate is see who can shout the loudest or insult a person’s integrity the best. And I’m sure some of them will follow you to your personal e-mail if you post it.
Hey I agree with some of what you say, but there ain’t nobody who listens to DR show, going to give a whole lot of credence to anything you say because of your obvious lack of respect for others.
Are you like a split personality of Monte or something posting as 2 different persons or something- I don’t get it.
Light My Cloak
A hero disguise as a man, she once wrote.
Life does It matter how far the stream flows?
Small little rifts that divide the wide gulf.
Do unto you and to they, whom to us, we all are.
Softly go gently and when long is the night.
Lament over song as we needs greatly die.
Fashioned naught for kings, queens to they will lie.
Then please forgive me, how my day has gone bye.
Hence fashioned from us, is common each man.

NPR has ethical standards? Since when? If they did they would have fired Nina Totenberg decades ago. Watch the link below for evidence of Totenberg's and NPR's hypocrisy.

Just gazing at Terry Gross would produce the same result. But Liasson is hardly the Queen of FNN. That would be Megyn Kelly.

You're a class act, mchaun.
Thanks for the "reliable" sources. Too funny. This is what libs call evidence."
I thought you BBLs were good with Politico. Do you ever accept our evidence when offered?
"Now, let's get serious, shall we. I repeat, As for being a "Bush Boot Licker", you should read some of my posts here which criticize him and his presidency roundly... so point to one "Bush Boot Licker" comment. You wouldn't have lied about that, would you?

Twice he pleads to look at his attacks on Bush. God, I must have hurt him terribly!! But how can I look at his Anti-Bush stuff, Diane doesn't maintain Comment Archives, or does she??
I searched for 'Bush and ecgberht' and wow, nearly a Hundred hits for Bush alone- old ecgberht must have a huge body of work to his credit.
The very first hit found 3 comments "attacking" Bush- to follow.(in reverse order)
Monte Haun mchaun@hotmail.com
What pathetic crap!! Not a single true assertion, UN "Permission" bald face lies. Liberal reaction- BS. And I'll bet poor Bush's ears are burning from ecgberht's savagery!!

"spontaneous uprising"
Bush I stopped where he did because the UN resolution had been fulfilled. And the left criticizes him for it.
Bush II went in and deposed a murderous dictator (with permission from UN resolution 1441 and Congress) and the left continues to criticize him for it.
As for the Kurds and Shi'a? Perhaps Saddam was just killing them for sport?
And as for the hypocrisy? I suppose then, you favor intervention in Bahrain, Tunisia, and Yemen?
Have to go for today.

I KNOW!!! Isn't it amazing???!!! I can never understand why liberal Democrats don't understand the FACT that ever big-government, socialist state ever tried, fails, whereas our small-government republic did great for 150 years before Wilson and FDR messed it up.

Were you forgetting about the Bush years? Have you ever seen Daily Kos (I'm betting daily). Do you remember the Alfred E Newman images of Bush, Bush as an ape, etc., etc?
