Bravo for your audition, Mr. Shuster--a marvelous feather in your liberal cap.

Oh, by the way, that was a figure of speech.

Mr. Finkelstein...

I am so glad you put this out here...I was watching this live while posting here ...I am just going to insert what I posted on the OT while it was happening live for now...just wanted to thank you.

Also, Shuster and Matthews cannot stand the fact that they have insinuated, spun and outright lied as far as I am concerned with spewing drooling hope that they were right for years now....just to be kicked in the shins again....as they so rightfully deserve.

Anway here is what I wrote earlier....

David Shuster just got made an arse of by a gentleman named Fouad Ajani....regarding the Libby/Plame/Wilson/Armitage BS...and this war too.

I love the guy!

Poor Shuster...what a big wide mouthed fool with a little brain who keeps being proven wrong time and time again...along with Matthews for whom he is replacing today.

Been too much fun to listen to...with the exception of Shyster's blind arrogance the more he opens his mouth...where he gets the audicity to say the crap he does is beyond me....he is worse than Matthews and that is saying a lot...talk about rude.

Btw...later Shuster got handed his arse again by Dan Burton as far as I am concerned...he called Shuster exactly what he is...a good democrat and a liberal....which he got angry about too....

I loved it.

I have always been puzzled by Fouad Ajami as he was the hired expert of CBS on Iran sitting next to Gungadan Rather for years, but his reports were always accurate and as of the past year he has been heroic like few in America.

Mr. Ajami actually went to Iraq several months ago, spoke to everyone under the sun and actually gave an assessment which stated as others have found in that the Iraqi people are actually forming a central sovereign people as in a nation. This was during the time that everyone was talking civil war. (Gee we haven't heard that since the dems got power and know they will have to stay in Iraq if they get the White House.)

In any case Mr. Ajami was ignored by the liberals and people like Robert Spencer and Hugh Fitzgerald on Jihad Watch refused to accept his work and instead ranted on about Bush being demented and Iraq was a tarbaby. (Their words.)

What is amazing is Mr. Ajami actually taking a further bold stance on Scooter Libby. He has shown in a nation of lap dogs and panting Lugerites with hamburger for heart that he is the real deal, a man of John Wayne's terms in having true grit.

Personally after all of these American attributes Mr. Ajami has shown, I hope that the Republicans, as in Fred Thompson add this wonderful person to their staff as an expert and when elected make him either Sec. of State or an under secretary on Middle East policy. Not many people impress me in this day and age, but Fouad Ajami is heads above the ilk we usually have to deal with.

He deserves a big salute of appreciation from Americans.

David Shuster needs a rabies shot or face the people he is acting like an ass to so they can belt him in the mouth and teach him to be civil. MSNBC needs to add an A for ass to describe the donkeys working for them from the top down.

...as if there was just one leaker....

So, Shuster is apparently suggesting there was more than one leaker of Valerie Plame's name, not that it mattered, anyway, as she was not "covert" by any definition other than the irrational twaddle of the America-hating left, which includes Shuster.

I wonder if Shuster as any proof of this assertion?

I will not hold my breath waiting for it.

-Mark, in answer to your last question, apparently there are not enough talking heads on TV with adavanced BDS. I think you are correct in speculating that he is auditioning for yet another spot.

Help Fred defeat the RINOs, along with the Hitllary-Obama Axis, & win the White House in '08.

Wasn't Shuster the man who announced with absolute certainly that Karl Rove was going to be indicted on KO's show?

Shuster is the master of unidentified,high ranking,anonymous,inside the beltway sources.
A hack is what Shuster is.
It seemed like every Friday during the investigation Davey boy's sources were predicting a Cheney/Rove perp walk.

If I had been Ajami, the interview would have ended rather suddenly with Mr. Shuster having to pick his teeth up off the floor.  Ajami has a lot more patience that I would have had with that useless blowhard.

Ten-hut! If the non-Leftists aren't going to not lose in 2008, they need ro expose the bad side.

Remember, Shuster is the reporter (sarc) who as I recall  was swindled by Jason Leopold on the "Rove Indicted" fiasco. Both of them allegedly assured the Chris Matthews Kool-Aid drinkers a year ago that Rove WOULD be indicted. Check out their fever swamp at www.truthout.org

It's nice to see the "objective media" so pissed off about one commutation. It proves their agenda beyond any doubt.

As I watched the tape, I kept thinking "now this is fair and balanced". </sarcasm>.  Where's the fairness doctrine when we really, truely need it?

"Could Shuster's scenery-chewing performance have been sincere, or was this an audition for Keith Olbermann's slot?" Let me ask, have Shuster and Olbermann ever been seen together? Sometimes these performances simply leave you speechless. Shuster's unprofessional performance astounds me, but the real kicker is why the Suits at NBC aren't truely embarrassed by these antics?

Having been a long time fan of Fouad Ajami, I was surprised that I never noted he had provided his expertise for CBS.  The man is always interesting and insightful but seldom controversial so little David Shuster's attack was all the more ridiculous.

The minions of the lunatic left like David Shuster deserve to be slapped down every time they spout their vitriol propaganda.  Professor Ajami began to do it with his comparison of Shuster's attack to the crap that comes out from that little turd Paul Krugman.

Wow, that's pathetic -- what a total jackass. Let the man speak damn it. These liberal hacks grow quite tiresome.

Mark, I happened to catch the 2nd half of this yesterday. As sad as it can get. It was this last gasp from Shuster that, in my mind, that really sets the proof as to how wound up and on a mission he was. And you noted it, as well. When Shuster blurted out:

Mr. Ajami, I'm not going to let you end this with the idea that Iraq was part of 9-11 when everybody knows, everybody knows, that Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11.

Not only had Mr. Ajami, "had in fact done no such thing" not said anything along that line of thought, neither was it in his column. Shuster simply created the attack (made it up on the spot), baseless as it was, and then gave Mr. Ajami no opportunity to respond. 

This reminds me of how the left creates what ever they wish to believe. At a party a couple of years back, in the conversation, I offerred that indeed mistakes had been made in Iraq; suddenly this well educted type (PhD) "adult" agressively blurted out, "Well then, you are a traitor. Bush keeps saying that anyone who questions the war in Iraq is a traitor." I volunteered, " I don't imagine that he has actually ever said any such thing." Wow, guess what? It turns out that I was the only person there who didn't know the truth - and suddenly they were all angry. It turns out that, according to the educated elite, I should watch the news. Who me? I'm still waiting for one of them to show me when the Pres. actually made such a reference.

Shuster seems to have shaped his MO to be a blend of Chris Matthews and Olbiedog.

While Shuster was demanding that Mr. Ajami apologize, it's Shuster and NBC that needs to apologize. What a low point for journalism. Thanks for covering it so well.  (;~> gary

Oh, even us conservative thinking types have occasional bouts of ADD.
