Memo to Tim Russert: Dick Cheney thinks he controls you. This delicious morsel about the "Meet the Press" host and the vice president was part of the extensive dish Cathie Martin served up yesterday when the former Cheney communications director took the stand in the perjury trial of former Cheney chief of staff I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby. Flashed on the courtroom computer screens were her notes from 2004 about how Cheney could respond to allegations that the Bush administration had played fast and loose with evidence of Iraq's nuclear ambitions. Option 1: "MTP-VP," she wrote, then listed th

Who ever said that is not making sense. And if that was Russert's explanation, it is not a very good one.

You can say that again: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...12501951_2.html At the Libby trial, Russert made a point at how he treated all his conversations with Administration insiders as off-the-record unless otherwise instructed. Such suck-up stenography is not good political journalism, but it is how Washington journalism works. Testimony at the Libby trial also revealed that far from fearing Russert as a tough interrogator, Cheney's office that he was a pushover: "I suggested we put the vice president on 'Meet the Press,' which was a tactic we often used," Martin testified.

Though we probably disagree on about 90% of the possible political positions two folks could possibly disagree about, I genuinely like you, sincerely even.

A nice and extremely important point. For me, this point (in a nutshell) is at the crux of the same sex marriage debate. On one side we have folks seeking to be afforded the same right, privilege, whatever you want to call it, as every other citizen in the country

Movies Watched with the Most Tissues Needed
Good Old Neon replied to Wilco Worshipper's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
You and me both. The trilogy has several of those moments - I'm a sucker for Theoden's pre-battle/charge speech on Pelennor Field. Gandalf's death... So many tissue worthy moments - and yes, I am a nerd. -
Are we referring to some sort of undisclosed, heretofore unknown impropriety here - a lost crazy weekend at The Whitehouse? But yeah, I agree - most of the Hitler/Bush comparisons are lame.

Hmmmm

That's cool - I just don't think it, Mr. Godwin's Law, is applicable here.

I think it's pretty obvious, and speaks for itself. What it wasn't, I don't think, was an attempt to equate Hitler and his atrocities with Fox.
