The next question would be when did he then restart the campaign? Has he in fact actually done so? Concerned idiots want to know.

Blitzer must have thought Toobin's remarks were opinions.  In Blitzer's opinion, the facts are different.

If MSNBC can yank Olbermann and Matthews off the desks for being too liberal, why can't CNN yank Blitzer for being an IDIOT?  He reads from those sheets of paper he like to carry around.  Whatever is on the paper is what he says.  His boss could just call him in the office and say, "Look, Wolf, you keep repeating something that everybody knows is NOT TRUE.  Just cut it out, O.K."  Blitzer, cowed, slinks back to "The Situation Room".  "Hey, Wolf!", his boos calls after him, "You forgot your pencil..."

Wolfie had his ass handed to him by Jack Cafferty the other day. Cafferty played a clip of Palin's interview with Couric and Blitzer tried to cover for Palin's harebrained, incoherent response to a question. Caferty said to Blitzer, ""Don't make excuses for her. That was pathetic."

Worrierking

I was very proud of Jack Cafferty.

Cafferty cracks me up. He appears to have reached a point in his life where he speaks his mind and doesn't care whom he offends. I can relate to that...  ;>)

Irony, Cafferty has just gone commando in his mind :-0) He's a maverick, baby.

McCain never suspended his campaign.

He is just milking the Americans' gullibility and forgiving nature for all it is worth.

Without a horse race Blitzo has no job.

Wolf is truly pathetic.  Can you imagine having to go to work every day, knowing that people think you are an ass.  Not only your co-workers, but the millions of viewers.  I almost feel sorry for him.

What really matters is that John McCain suspended truth, integrity and honor a long time ago...the rest is just more political rhetoric.

Somewhere....... all of our founding fathers, looking down upon their hard earned creation........... are weeping in their lager!

Doris, I agree, and Cafferty was genuine in his anger toward Blitzer for trying to make an excuse. Palin makes Dan Quayle look qualified, it is very scary. We all need to be afraid.

I just heard a McCain spokesperson say that McCain had brokered a deal on the bank bailout bill but that Pelosi and the Democrats didn't want McCain to be able to use it so they derailed it!  Man, just when you think it couldn't get more funjky it does!  The Republicans try and use everything; natural disasters,to the present economic meltdown for partisan political gain,despite the harm to the country.  Barbara Tuchman described this behavior as "The March of Folly," she says,"It qualifies as folly when it is a perverse persistence in a policy demonstrably unworkable or counter productive."  She says that folly is a child of power but it also power breeds folly if not guided by responsibility...reasponsibility to govern reasonably i.e., keep informed..."heed information ...resist the insidious spell of wooden-headedness..." Can anyone deny that for the last 8 yrs. that we are marching down the road to folly?
