Charlie also interviewed Lee Hamilton:

What ELSE is going on?

MrX

Just read on HotAir that Sarah Palin formed a PAC. She’s running in 2012 for President.

Watch the talking heads on MSM explode!! How dare she? A bimbo and a dummy. Stick it to them Sarah! (..and I am a liberal…lol)

Good for us, I mean U.S. By 2012 the hole will be in will have no bottom and the bridge to heaven that Obama is building will be loosing its luster. Only a woman that has given birth to 5 children can give birth to the idea of a national debt payment account paid by harvesting crude being pulled out of the North pole.

Didn’t watch it. No truth going to be expressed there.

I won’t watch the slime ball. I have all I can tolerate listening to O’Vomit.

As for Sarah, I think she is just starting a pac, which doesn’t necessarily mean a presidental run. It could also be for Alaskan Senator.

Go Sarah……….

It would be indeed.

Axelrod is channeling a sort of “old worn out Hitler” thing to my eye.
cynic

I’ve got to admit, the election of Palin in 2012 seems like a bit more probable TEOTWAWKI scenario than the unannounced arrival of an alien starship over Washington, or a planet-killing asteroid strike…

I won’t watch Obama and I won’t watch Axelrod. I don’t give a shit what someone says, actions speak louder than words. When there is a stimulus package w condom funding and other stupid shit, that says it all. Axelrod is an asswipe.

You wrote campaign mastermind; I read criminal mastermaind…

Thank You I have said many times that he reminds me of Hitler

Susan, I have to hand it to you…you have stamina.
How DO you watch this man?
OxyCon

Are you trying to punish us?
Who would want to watch that greasy, sleazy propagandist flapping his jaws?
I saw enough of that dickwad already to last me a lifetime.
Why don’t he get his fugly face off of my television and go about what he does best, which is dreaming up which historical figures, places or items he and Obama can rape the historical significance out of for their own gain.

Your man winks too so I guess your in good company?

Plus I guess Sarah will have many men to wink at if she needs to and sure you will not be top of the list right? at a push on the end of her shoe LOL

I wonder if Tim, of the Treasury, is going to be doing Turbo Tax ads this tax season. He is certainly a user of the product. Somewhere on the disc is the “I Forgot” clause. Maybe if we all use Turbo none of us will have to pay taxes.

Just a thought.

Axelrod is BO’s Rove–more proof that he’s a 3rd Bush.Of all the time we needed leaders with integrity and ethics we get Axelrod, Emanuel, Geithner, Summers, etc–why doesn’t A go give an interview to the Arab station. This is not change, this is a liar’s lies coming out into the open.

It is WAY better than being flipped off at You’ll grow to love it, and after that you can actually take a look at her accomplishments, you betcha!

Okay–Open Thread! Open Thread!

For all of my fellow tin-hatters: time to worry about something else besides politics for a few minutes!

Still worried that the Large Hadron Collider will create a black hole that will destroy the Earth when it’s finally switched on this summer?

Um, well, you may have a point.

Well, in response to Obama’s olive branch interview… here’s our first response.

The Taliban called on President Barack Obama to close all “evil” US detention centers for militants, “completely withdraw” from Iraq and Afghanistan and “stop defending Israel,”

The Taliban issued a stern warning to Obama should he not heed their advice.

Just peachy isn’t it. I have long thought Obama would prove to be just another Bush III. I stand corrected… He is going for Jimmy Carter II. Paper tigers anybody?

He reminds me of a used car salesman. He’s kinda oily and there’s something about his face that tells me dishonesty lives behind those eyes. Maybe it’s just me, but he gives me the creeps.

I could only watch a few minutes of Axelrod burnishing the legend of his messiah. What other American politician ever had such a chorus of suck-ups constantly singing his praises?

Yes, for all intents and purposes I am still a Democrat and I do agree with most of what Obama has done in the very short time he has been president. But this constant cult-like glorification is so over the top. Every time I think I am somehow coming to terms with the Obama presidency, I hear a crock of bs like this and want to puke.
