Okay, you guys didn't actually *say* that Dr. Maddow would be hosting Race for the White House today. However, she's hosted it for the last couple of days, so I thought it was worth tuning in. Sure it might be David Gregory, but a little voice of hope in my heart said it would be Dr. Maddow.

Instead I saw Joe Scarborough's face.

That was unpleasant.

I hate to impose, but how about some kind of "What Dr. Maddow is doing today" box on the site? Something that I can glance at and see what she is and isn't hosting? It would be very helpful.

I tuned into AAR to hear Rachel-- in case she was on or hosting Race tonight... but Joe? I didn't recognize his voice (because I don't listen to him talk very often), but I recognized him immediately when he said something was coming "off its rels." Lionel's impression is dead on.

Anyway, rachel isn't even on the panel! So this just just the Joe Scarborough hour??

wrong program. GO RACHEL!

I tried to sit through the first hour via TV and had a hard time watching, I bared through the scoff with Mr. Scrabrough when he opted out of a panel that was still in motion, months agao. but today tops the cake... when he uses a the drop of ,,,and another missing girl" when speaking of the election season ramp up sound bite, the "missing girl" statement was un-needed, So to those who are not aware, there is a missing girl; and now she is found Police say missing Vt. 12-year-old's body found

BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — Vermont State Police say they have found a body believed
to be that of a missing 12-year-old girl. Col. James Baker says Brooke Bennett's body
was found in Randolph shortly before 5 p.m. and her family has been notified.

According to an affidavit, a 14-year-old witness has told investigators that Brooke's uncle brought Brooke to his home to initiate her into a child sex ring the day she disappeared.
She was last seen alive with the uncle, Michael Jacques, at a convenience store a week ago.

Since Mr. Scrabrough miss used this first hour, I will go off topic and post the real story. but besides, how many times can we hear the same opionions without feeling that binality has set in with the cable media and that anyone with half a brain knows to tune off TV and tune into NPR, AAR and NY observer.

Revenge is the argument many liberals use against the death penalty.. It makes no sense IMHO to attach the revenge word to impeachment of Bush (and Co.).. They ignored all our intelligence agencies (and told the public the opposite: about mushrooom clouds), then they iniated a war that has nearly a milliion dead (counting Iraquies).. The has been the largest mass murder in history (with the exception of Hitler.. perhaps the bean counters can find another).. To let this pass with no penalty whatsoever, is unthinkable.. It tell the future they can do ANYTHING!!!!!!!! And get away with it.. This is not about revenge, but common sense.. The only argumant I recognize is that impeachment can cost the election (I dont know).. But I do not believe it will cost us the election,.. Rather the hearning should bring to light so many illegal things that surely some needed new laws (for presidents to follow) should be drafted..

bobblerft, i agree. i stop however at needing 'new' laws. i believe we have alot of UNdoing to do. starting with the patriot act, which branches off everywhere...

BHO's morphing into a BLUE DOG is very likely a result of having surrounded himself with SHRUM types.

The DLC cadre that have seats on the Trilateral Commission who have been sucked into BHO's camp via the vacuume created by the hyena's burst bubble are extremely persuasive. Particularly since they have steamer chests full of GOVT SKELETONS and the cell number of the JACKALS who put them there.

Besides the media is profit center for the MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX, so the closer the contest, the more advertising revenue gets generated. It's a win win, even if BHO looses, he's a MADE MAN and the WAR GOES ON either way!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moulitas gave the wrong answer! Impeachment is about revenge???? Egad.

IT'S NOT ABOUT REVENGE, Mr. Moulitas. IT IS ABOUT JUSTICE!!!

If ours is a nation based on The Constitution and the Rule of Laws rising out of the Constitution, we MUST impeach. Playing politics with the impeachment process is not a valid option!

I'll be at The Stadium tomorrow. Yankee. Doodle. Dandy.

For more on the complexities of being a Yankee or Sox fan, and the strange co-dependence of our relationship, check out the following, written by a Pinstriper:

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/03/sports/baseball/03heller.html

So what I’m wondering, as I immerse myself in this latest series of contests between the Yankees and the Red Sox, is this: Is it possible that a tiny piece of my pinstriped heart beats for the Sox, even as I can’t endure the sight of Josh Beckett, not to mention Tek, Youk, Dicey-K, Nancy Drew and Big Sloppy? Can a Yankee fan actually have a love relationship with the bullies from Boston, our sworn enemies? [snip]

I understand now. I don’t love the Red Sox any more than [my friend and Sox fan] Lisa loves the Yankees. It is simply that we are addicted to each other’s team in a totally unhealthy, co-dependent way.

Agree with sentiments above re: RM on Countdown. Rachel seemed totally Rachel last night, making the show more her own rather than as Keith's supersub. Yay!

Ok, so If the behavior of one person, offers the right to the other person who is the recipient of the behavior of the first, is allowed to avenge with out consequence, then where it is said or written, that allow us to ask for impeachment when what we are wanting is the same in kind to what the person we are asking for impeachment bestowed upon us.
humm
so I did one better I looked 2 of the popular words that came up in the las few postings, and here is how they are defined: source ctied also; here's what I found,

jus•tice
is rendering to every one that which is his due. It has been distinguished from equity in this respect,
that while justice means merely the doing what positive law demands, equity means the doing what
is fair and right in every separate case.
