The Real Sporer will appear on the long running WHO-TV (Des Moines Channel 13) political talk show, The Insiders, tomorrow. the program first airs in its totality at 6:30 a.m. (some may utilize a chronologically based recording device) and partial replay at 10:00 a.m. Extra parts will be available on line, including Presidential ups and downs.
Thanks to John Bachman and Dave Price for the invite. Thanks to Gordon Fischer, ex IDP State Chair for the dance. By the way, as I’ve always said when some of our more aggressive bloggers have gotten personal with Gordon, while as misguided as they get, Gordon is a great guy with whom it is easy to disagree but with whom it is very hard to become disagreeable.
Needless to say I did use the words “Damascus” and “Nancy” and “Beijing” and “Hillary” in the same sentences. So turn on and tune in and let me know what you think. But remember when voicing your opinions that Gentry and Ed aren’t the only ones with secret police.

More basically,” says The Denver Post, “we urge the legislature to add political robocalls to the list of commercial solicitations that can’t be sent to Coloradans who have signed on to the no-call list.”
Add political robocalls to the list of commercial solicitations? Now that’s a neat trick. The Post says “computers have no constitutional rights” — what a relief! — while only “political calls by people are protected speech.”
Does that mean a political message sent by computer e-mail to more than one address is a “commercial solicitation,” too? Is an editorial in a newspaper (which couldn’t be published these days without computers) delivered to multiple homes also unprotected speech?
Political robocalls are often obnoxious speech, no doubt, but obnoxious political speech is just as secure under the First Amendment as the genteel words of the most polished pundit.
And by the way, do robocalls that attack a candidate, ballot measure or legislation ever actually work?
It’s one thing to answer the phone to hear the recorded voice of a popular figure such as John Hickenlooper genially pushing, say, a tax for preschool. Even if you disagree, you’ll probably listen. But the crude robocalls that so bother critics only make sane listeners want to do the opposite of whatever the phone call urged.

The unemployment rate fell to a five-year low of 4.4 percent as job growth picked up to 180,000 last month
In another sign of unexpected strength, hiring in January and February was 32,000 more than previously reported.
But the overall employment gains in March masked the loss of another 16,000 manufacturing jobs —the ninth straight month of shed factory jobs
That was Newt who went to Beijing--while he was Speaker--and did his own diplomacy, threatening China with war over Taiwan.
I don't know how Hillary fits in here, sorry.
Newt was wrong to do go to Beijing and articulate foreign policy unless the President sent him.
Pelosi is worse, that's all. She was advocating a very different foreign policy to an enemy state.
I just stumbled upon this blog as a redirect from Krusty. Who in the heck is this Sporer guy? Even after reading his profile, I almost splurged milk out of my nose. This guy's ego is endless, and it's obvious he loves the sound of his own voice. If people like this are leading the GOP, Iowa is in deep, deep trouble.
oh my - a weakling has entered the midst. He can't hold his milk.
drinking milk on a saturday night. how lonely. or, he's from france, which would account for the sad and lonely timeframe during which he was out trolling around for blogs just for the purpose of being insulting.
I think I understand why you are home alone on a saturday night. I bet you are overweight and short too.
Sorry Sporer. My recording of The Insiders (6:30am version) only included "paid programming."
From today's news on AG Gonzalez:
"This is the most mishandled, artificial, self-created mess that I can remember in the years I've been active in public life," Gingrich said. "The buck has to stop somewhere, and I'm assuming it's the attorney general and his immediate team."
I am befuddled. Its the same thing as the Joe Wilson. Jesus, other than his name and the fact he went to africa, everything else wilson said was a complete lie. oh, and the wife wasn't a confidential agent. Rather than just hammer the rat bastard openly they pussy foot around the edges.
These attorneys, including Lam who Fienstiein wanted fired for the last two years, could be fired for any reason. Why not just say we didn't like their work, we can do better and they're fired. That jerk off in Washington (state) is sitting on a huge electoral corruption case, that does involved Democrats, but it is huge and should have been prosecuted at least 6-8 months ago.
But I'm inclined to agree. I think Al should probably go for PR reasons and bring in some ass kicker like Chertoff to really clean house. Or maybe John Cornyn......an awesome AG, although he maybe wouldn't do it.
Here's a strange choice, but Alan Derschowitz. He's tougher than nails on terror. A very rational and balanced small "l" liberal on personal rights issues. I think he could sell the things we need to do to win the WOT better than anyone we can put in the jobs for the next two years.
So what do you make of Bush using my boy Bill Richardson as a diplomat to North Korea? I was in favor of renominating Richardson for the UN when Bolton couldn't get the job. In case the Dems do win I hope to God Richardson has Cheney's influence in the White House as either Sec of State of VP. He is the only serious Democrat other than Lieberman left on the international stage.
Dear Befuddled,
US attorneys can't be fired for "any" reason. They can't be fired if it amounts to obstruction of justice(Lam?). They can't be fired for not bringing cases that have no merit because such firing amounts to abuse of power(New Mexico? Washington?).
Gonzales defenders still mechanically say "The attorneys can be fired for any reason," even though the true reason remains elusive. So what WAS the reason for the biggest US attorney purge ever?
I think the whole Gonzales affair is a classic case of “not the actual deed, but the cover-up.” Had they been honest to begin with, it would not have been nearly this bad.
“He [Richardson] is the only serious Democrat other than Lieberman left on the international stage.” – Right or wrong, this just proves how differently we look at this world. I could very well mutter something like “Hagel is the only serious R left with any credibility on the international stage.” I do have to give W some credit for sending Richardson on the mission. Of course, my D interpretation would be that there aren’t many credible, high-profile R’s left he could have sent.
The entire Edwards family are cowards.

RALEIGH --Elizabeth Edwards says she is scared of the "rabid, rabid Republican" who owns property across the street from her Orange County home -- and she doesn't want her kids going near the gun-toting neighbor.
Good job Teddy.
Sporer,
Good job yesterday on the Insiders.
WAR Sporer!
Obama Ditches CBC/Fox Debate
Barack Obama has chosen not to attend September's Democratic presidential primary debate co-sponsored by the Congressional Black Caucus Institute and Fox News, an aide said, effectively dooming the event.
Obama is the only member of the Congressional Black Caucus running for President, and his decision allows other candidates to skip the debate without facing criticism that they are turning their backs on a leading black institution.
I guess Obama leads the other children who are also afraid to appear on Fox. Because he chickened out, now they can chicken out. Obama is the chief chicken, I guess.
Where did you see the Obama/Fox news item? - Looks like I need to send a pissy email to the Obama campaign. This stuff is ridiculous.
I found it on Drudge.

Obama Ditches CBC/Fox Debate
Barack Obama has chosen not to attend September's Democratic presidential primary debate co-sponsored by the Congressional Black Caucus Institute and Fox News, an aide said, effectively dooming the event.
Obama is the only member of the Congressional Black Caucus running for President, and his decision allows other candidates to skip the debate without facing criticism that they are turning their backs on a leading black institution.
Friday, John Edwards was the first candidate to announce he'd skip the debate. The CBC Institute is hosting one other debate, with CNN in January, in which all candidates are expected to participate.
"CNN seemed like a more appropriate venue," the aide said, adding that Obama himself had not called CBC leadership or Fox executives to deliver the news. "It was handled at a staff level."
The aide said that Obama will participate in the six officially-sanctioned Democratic National Committee debates, whose existence provided candidates a measure of cover to drop out of the Fox-sponsored debate.
OBAMA PHOTO CAUSES CONTROVERSY
Mon Apr 09 2007 14:39:38 ET
It's being called the equivalent of a paparazzi gotcha:
A snapshot of Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) and his chief political/media adviser David Axelrod -- taken in the Senator’s Capitol Hill office!
ROLL CALL reports: Congressional ethics rules forbid the use of federal office space for political and campaign activity.
A spokeswoman for the Obama camp declined comment to the paper.
Of course, Algore was proven to have made fundraising calls to Chinese operatives from his office during the clinton years before clinton championed campaign finance reform that was initially triggered by clintons campaign violations.
Funny how he always does that.
Actually, my guess is that the HillBillie camp is behind these negative Obama stories.
rf - I'm not surprised you hadn't heard about Obamas troubles. They don't report that stuff on CNN.
Yup - I'm right. I just checked CNN's sight and no mention of it. I guess they wouldn't report it though since they were named the official sponsor of the democrat party.
I was listening to Rush during lunch today and heard some interesting data courtesy of Tom Dashle. I had forgotten this, but it's timely for this discussion. Tom Daschle found out to his horror when analyzing Rush's audience that Libs listen too and he was changing their opinion even.
Rush had a recovered lib on the line who was saying how since listening to Rush, he'd come to understand how much propoganda he'd been subjected to growing up and was now NOT a liberal. He was only 24. In effect, he THANKED Rush for his conversion.
He mostly sighted how much history had not been taught to him in school. Once he learned real history, he quit being a democrat.
Ok (dem) anons a little reality check. IS TED AN EGOMANIAC ? Yep, but that's why we love him. CAN THE PRESIDENT REPLACE US ATTORNEYS IN THE DOJ ? Yep and he doesn't even need a reason!(extra credit if you actually admit that Bill Clinton fired all 93 in one swoop)And for the Bonus round. WHAT DID HILLARY DO IN BEJING ? Raise money of course.
By the way I am a Major in the Sporer secret police and a junior officer in Gentry's.
Anon 10:19
I'm calling Bullshit on this one. What are the documented facts that Lam was fired to stop an investigation? Specific evidence, not some "theory" that has no factual basis.
Same with bringing meritless criminal cases in the other jurisdictions. Facts, not liberal talking points.
Please provide the source, by the way, not just the conclusion. Bring it or don't play in our league.
The people who think Fox is straight Republican obviously haven't seen about half of O'Reilly's rants.
I wonder, did Fox forge documents about a Democrat candidate and coordinate the release of those forged documents with that candidate's opponent.
Or was the CBS.
Thank you for the info on the Obama/Fox thing. I shared my view with the Obama folks. I know I’ll never agree 100% with any candidate and I know all candidates pander to some degree. Still, this crap pisses me off.
rf - there is hope for america after all. as a democrat, you are not a hater. you are a minority in that regard, but it's hopeful nonetheless.
Thanks for your participation on this blog. You provide terrific banter and discussion.
Thank you. That is very kind. I don’t expect feedback like that from the evil & mean R’s strolling these sites. :)
US President Tim Kalemkarian, US Senate Tim Kalemkarian, US House Tim Kalemkarian: best major candidate.
