    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      The problem with all this is that it is almost impossible to find a link to the actual chat. I found one downstairs, but cnnot find it again. Will post when I get back down there.

              @George-K the live numbers were actually 900K, anyway. Saw that myself, though I couldn’t listen live.

                Thanks for the link. It was good stuff.

                I am curious what some of our resident DeSantis haters think of the conversation.

                  Here’s a guy who is coherent, disciplined and has thought this through. He can thoroughly articulate his positions. I like him a whole lot more today.

                      I didn't listen (yet), but I watched his interview with Gowdy. It was good.

                        Wow. It would be one thing if the lincoln project presented itself as entertainment punditry. But they want people to believe they are serious historians and thinkers. And millions think of them in exactly that way.

                        I noticed they included my favorite bit of gaslighting from the left. The one where they accuse the right of pushing some bizarre culture war that comes out of nowhere.

                          I don't think he's afraid of Trump. Judging from what I heard today I also think they are flat wrong, and frankly irrelevant.

                                No, they carry a lot of weight in the NAMBLA crowd, and that’s a big enough demographic that Target and the Dodgers are willing to give up their Christian base to try to win…

                                          Maybe he drives a Foad. I can see the confusion.
