Charlie Rose Last Night

Could u update and tell us if it aired last night and when nxt or make link available pls. Would love to catch it. Thnx..Old USC pal

Ah, jeez: had this been mentioned YESTERDAY … those without high-speed connections might have watched it on television.

I love Charlie Rose…I’ll have to find that interview. Jake, I think you are doing a great job also.

I didn’t want to watch it much further past Jake’s statement of Rush Limbaugh being an “incredibly gifted broadcaster.” Many Americans don’t share his obvious admiration.

“I am an Independent and former democrat who can say with conviction that Rush in context makes more sense than anyone I have heard recently!
And I have never listened to him before.”
I never listened to him, either — and based on news clips, have had contempt for him. The teevee speech was a lot better than Obama/Gibbs/Biden, however.

“he is cool, and i don’t mean like the Fonz.” hahahah

aware2u
“In comparison Obama has no moral center or code of ethics.”
So you are making the judgement from your in depth knowledge of Obamas & Limbaughs life?
barbara if “I hope he fails” was used in any context toward President Bush you would have been running the streets with a lantern crying TREASON!

Jake – I couldn’t stop laughing when you couldn’t keep a straight face when Charlie espoused the Obama talking point of “halving the deficit in four years”. Your reaction spoke for most sane people out there. Thank you for your continued hard-nosed investigative style and for calling a spade a spade on both sides of the aisle. It’s really refreshing.

Thank you, Jess. That was very well put.

We should lament the PASSING of responsible and non editorialized journalism so well exemplified in the Rose interview.

I think the Republicans’core values are out of date hence the confusion.
The very definition of the word conservative sounds very last century and fails to reflect the ideology of the party.
The liberals have captured the mood of the nation. People are no longer conservative but very liberal in their outlook.
Rush’s translation of consevatism falls within the framework of the seven deadly sins – Lust, Greed, Hateful, Pride, Gluttony, Rogues,& Adultery -
I for one view the word in the context of moral values.
I think going to the extreme right is wrong and going to the extreme left is wrong. A concession has got to be reached and policies have to be re-written to reflect the present age.
I am an independent and somehow I feel the current President has managed to identify the malaise in Capital Hill. You cannot make fair policies when you are on somebody else’s payroll – Lobbyist are a detriment to constructive policies.
Following all that has taken place post-enron I think there ought to be more outcry . It is not about party politics it is down to us all as individuals to curb our excesses.
When you talk about big government and small government I don’t exactly see what difference that makes.
I think you are all being too hasty in your assessment of the President – I am an independent but I have managed to capture his core values and it is quite powerful he has managed to embrass that fundamental universal human principle “loving your neighbour as yourself”. The challenge for him is to translate it into reality and he is truly working on it.
For me he has delivered- his manifesto was hope and change -on change spot-on
I am hopeful actually confident that once he has cleaned up this mess which unfortunately requires the tax payer to finance before confidence returns to the marketplace and thae banks, we will all realise how Rush’s assesment was so wrong about wanting it to fail.
However, I am voting for Rush come 2012.

Sigmonde, when you voice an opinion that states that you want the President to fail – long bofe he came into office surely that is way off-line.
Im defence I did say come 2012 I would like him to come on board I will surely vote for him.
Rush – 2012
