Flannery tried to get in a whole sentence but reThug Ingraham rudely talked over him every time he opened his mouth. But I never expected anything else coming out of the corrupt Republican party.
And yes, we are in the M$M's Cone of Silence.

What a raving loud mouth beoch who COULD NOT back up 1 of her points except trying to "blame the other guy" otherwise known as the Washington General Democrappers. She definitely deserves credit for going to the O'Reilly school of pig headed interviewing that repeatedly interupts the guest if they do not support their narrow-minded neo-con Republican bushit opinionated views. What lying loser who REFUSES TO INVESTIGATE THE FACTS AND IS INCAPABLE OF TELLING THE TRUTH.

Fox news "interviews" are characterized by shouting down anyone who offers facts and opinions contrary to the fascist propaganda and lies that Fox espouses. Everyone knows this.
Her statement that the media would be all over this if Republicans were behind this so-called voter fraud --- in actuality "registration fraud" is NOT the same --- is an outright lie. The media, like obedient attack dogs have been all over this bogus and souped ACORN issue.
Everybody knows this, even the citizens of Russia, yet it is somehow absent from mainstream media discussion
Yet the mainstream media, with its right-bent, has been irresponsibly negligent in reporting the problems of electronic voting machines (and, defying statistically impossible results that mysteriously always favor Republican candidates).
I find myself regretting how Barack Obama response to John McCain's ACORN statement and reenacting what he should have said, as if it was my mistake. I wish his response was something like this:
"You were the keynote speaker for ACORN in 2006. You were for it, and now four weeks before the election, you are against it. To address this question, yes, I believe in election transparency, as most Americans do, I'm sure, including ACORN. A greater threat to our democracy are unreliable electronic voting machines that can invisibly alter election results. If you support the integrity of American elections, I suggest you visit bradblog.com and blackboxvoting.org"

I think Ms. Ingraham's law degree needs to be revoked.
Apparently she hasn't been following along too closely. Had she been, she would have known about the Dannahey Report, citing the DOJ for violating their own internal procedures in the firing of those 9 attorneys under AG Gonzales. Attorneys who were fired for not prosecuting politically motivated, wholly bogus "voter fraud" cases.

Laura Ingraham is gonna bust a gasket when Obama reinstates truth into these shows. She's a vacuous mouth piece, that like other conservative pundits parrots the GOP talking points. She's a bitter, angry, defeated educated liar, she knows better. She knows Acorn is a functioning political force in registration that benefits the Democrats and as such, her goal is to dismantle its effectiveness. Her veil attempts at genuine concern of voter fraud is transparently and blatantly a partisan act and it is part and parcel of the GOP's playbook attempt to suppress voters. Her persona is a Lying Palin idiot clone regurgitating the same false accusations that the Rovianian campaign instructs her on. What is it with GOP females, that they go along with these MANdated tactics that aren't working any longer on the American public.

To the trained eye, Flannery was on top of her the entire time. But O'Reilly's audience is not 'the trained eye'. I imagine she came off to the Factor viewers as entirely credible, and she probably sealed it with them at the end when she was demanding to know why they shouldn't have to produce a driver's license, why that would be voter suppression, something which he didn't answer - it was a diversion, and he pointed that out, but that's not going to make a difference to the pinheads. She did the classic Republican tactic of muddying the water.
Personally, just because of the audience, I think Ingraham wins this one.

OT - but if anybody caught Sarah McFailin' on SNL tonight - she was a TOTAL FLOP! They were MERCILESS!!! Loved it.
NBC.com has the videos, don't know if it's up yet but I'm sure it will be. Great fun. AND the Obama Campaign put a great ad right in the middle with a clip of the Maverick saying he " voted with bush 90% of the time, more than most Republicans" ... McFailin' musta forgot, didn't see one of his creepy ads.

KIRA wonderful to know you're still fighting the good fight .It's such a tonic to know that so many wonderful people (like yourself) are still giving of their time and effort to fight for true and transparent democracy in America.
From afar I have watched for eight years the downward spiral of your once great country.Hoping that the next outrage would be the one that stirred the American people into action but alas...
And now a moment in history has arrived for good men and women to stand up and to fight for change .To support a leader who displays intelligence not ignorance ,compassion not contempt ,consideration not confusion.
Lets hope that history shows that November 4th 2008 was the turning point at which that downward spiral reversed.

P.S. Brad has shown a stamina for uncovering the truth that is truly amazing ,if anybody deserves a "Freedom Medal" its that man, an American you should all be proud of .

Mick, I'm heading off to sleep now but wanted to say it's been a tonic for me that so many like you have stayed on board throughout this whole disaster. Thank you!
Take a look at this picture taken earlier 10-18-08, Saturday:
Obama Rally Draws 100,000 in Missouri
Where are the pictures of McFailin's rallies? Too embarrassing? Too telling? If they steal this one I think the cat's out of the bag, doncha know?
I agree 100% with your PS. Brad's the man and does deserve a Medal.
Every day it's a fight with the ignorant at all levels from bottom to top. The tone of the McCain campaign has been so ugly and divisive - frankly it's been un-American.
Let's hope the landslide obliterates Rove's "The Math."

Every democrat that goes on these Faux Noise shows like this should be equipped with those small Air Horns to blast these screaming Reich wing lunatics ears out every time they cut them off.
3-4 blast from that air horn and this bitch would STFU so you can make your point and answer the question.

Yeah, but Ingraham spoke more loudly than Flannery, interrupted him continuously, and basically succeeded at making him have to stop mid-sentence and smile, while waiting for her to finish interrupting his thought processes.
So she "wins." Right?
Besides, how can we trust someone who smiles during a "discussion" of such a weighty matter as massive voter fraud?!
On a more serious note, I'd like to ask Ingraham how she, an attorney, can state, without faltering, that it simply couldn't be the case that there are "all these reports" if they aren't all true. Did she have to practice that in front of a mirror? In front of other Fox "news" "professionals?"
Or is she able to temporarily disconnect her intellect from her mouth? I'm wondering about this possibility, as a mother of a teen-aged girl who is also able to do this. Has Ingraham simply held onto this ability since her teen-aged years? Or did she have to regress back to those days when we're all hellbent on fooling our parents into thinking we think one thing, when we really know better.

By the way, there are a lot of republican lawyers who are partisan hacks, such as Cleta Mitchell [misrepresenting facts about ACORN] and Thor Hearne [misrepresenting facts about Election Fraud.] Monica Goodling anyone?

People who truly wish to debate an issue and are convinced that the facts support their stance do not feel the need to prevent their counterpart on the issue from completing a thought. I have noticed Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingraham and almost every other neo-con mouthpiece seldom allow guests who disagree with their point of view to complete a sentence. I will say this, it is much easier to watch O'Rieilly because he seldom even allows the opposition to even make an appearance.

You liberals are right about Fox News being biased, but isn't CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS and NBC? Palin is NOT qualified by Charlie Gibson's and Katie Couric's standards - nor by mine. But if the same standards are applied to Obama he isn't qualified either. Why can't liberals admit that? The truth is who cares about being qualified? Liberals don't want Obama because he's qualified, they want him because they like what he stands for. Why wasn't the liberal press talking about being qualified in 1992 when an incumbent president with 4 years exp, who had been the head of the CIA, an ambassador to the U.N., a congressman, a V.P and who 18 months before losing the race for re-election had had a 93% approval rating - with all of that experience lost to the governor of a smaller state with very little qualifications and a history of being accused as a womanizer? Vote for whoever you want, but please stop this b.s. about being qualified.

Good point, Joe, but I think you are not considering the fact of his outrageously successful administration of his campaigns. This one has involved the administration of unprecedented amounts of money and numbers of people, tackling also unprecedented amounts of seriously formidable adversity. I think he's shown that he definitely has the chops to be president, while Palin has shown that she abuses her office, is fiscally irresponsible and has virtually no grasp of the issues.
In short: No contest.
