MSNBC is to the Democrats as FoxNews is to Republicans.... both are extremely bias.. and you know it and it is making you as big a farce as the story. Fact of the matter Jamie, is neither you, nor I, nor the commentator knows exactly what happened in the coffee shop because none of us was there and no camera caught it.... They are going off the mans side of the story and THATS IT!....and all along the way we are feigning outrage... it is absolutely ridiculous! What is hilarious is "The Ed Show" comes off a lot like the democratic version of Rush Limbaugh... The hilarity of it all is this is democratic panic because they are about to take record losses.... I mean it is absolute panic from the liberal side of the media! ...and I am loving it! ...just for the simple fact that there was no outrage when it was happening to Republicans. Maybe Mr. Ed can get a red phone for the owner of the establishment to call him like Beck had for the President to call him. I like the pause in the middle of his story to make sure he gets it straight! Aces! We will find out if this guy files suit and there are witnesses to support his story. My guess is this will fade away and we will never hear of it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Very true.....I was surprised I had no trouble getting to Pentagon City around noon but parking was a different story. I got lucky and ended up near the Nordstrom entrance when everyone else was trying to get near Macy's. I guess it helps to know the area quite well. Metro wasn't prepared for this, no question. There are reports that WMATA offered Comedy Central a chance to "buy" more trains so people could get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank God that they are only taking the house and wont be able to get that stuff done. [/quote] LOL-whatever.The zoom is closer on Stewart's,Beck's is clearly taken from a higher altitude...necessary when you need to cover a larger area.The metro means nothing more than more people from a heavily democratic city attended Stewarts rally than Becks.It doesn't show how many non resident's that never used the metro attended. Let's take another step-the mid terms.How was the attendance for that event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
