Did Tweety express his never ending man crush on McCain as predicted by TPM?

Rachael was wonderful (up to last 10 minutes when she did fluff) for those of you still thinking of watching.

Also, Dan Abrams is doing better than in the past. He hates guns so his section on Disneyland was great. And they smashed the that awful republican what's his name.

1. Just had a root canal this morning, in fact. I recommend it over Tweety lately.
Much less painful, really.

2. You might want to opt for the root canal
along with a colonoscopy and a bikini waxing.

4. You're right about Abrams
He had said in a previous show that he wouldn't drop the issue of Rove refusing t testify before the House Judiciary Committee and he's locked on to that story like a pit bull. I really like this guy.

5. I love that Dan pissed Karl off so much that he wrote a 5 page angry letter
to Dan, and handed it out to news outlets! And that Dan Abrams brings it up all of the time.

6. Exactly
That's why I like Abrams. You'd expect the media to cower when they get scolded by Rove but Dan is taking the fight right to him and seems to enjoy it.

8. I agree with the media cowering but Abrams does not back down
or at least not on this one.

It seemed at first his show was going to be about the current show trial, OJ, white girl lost in resort island blah blah

But he's been better, talking political issues.

He does have that horrid conservative blowhard Brad Blakeman on most nights. But tonight, he and the other guests ate Brad's lunch...and laughed at him about it.

There is a part of me that thinks Dan picks the worst GOP spin machine because it makes the right look so vapid. But maybe I'm reading too much into it.

And I LOVE when he does his teflon John section on McCain.

I think MSNBC is getting how Olbermann can get ratings from the left and they are showing some balls.


Now, if they would just give Rachael her own show!

7. I think I'd always choose a root canal over Tweety.
At least I'd get good painkillers.

9. he wasn't so bad tonight
(yes, I watched, with a finger on the fast forward button just in case!)

he didn't completely fawn over McCain as Josh predicted so I guess its a win!

10. March on!
Ha ha... finger at the ready. I can barely stomach Tweety during that 1 minute between Two and a Half Men and Olbermann (I'm low tech...).

12. I can't take Tweety anymore. I've taken to watching a couple of shows
on HGTV where everyone has to have granite countertops in the kitchen and stainless steel appliances or their house is inferior. I can't figure out what is so bad about black appliances or even white appliances, but I suspect HGTV is the reason so many people refinanced their houses to the max and got into trouble with their mortgages.
