Time Warner Dispatch

A tidbit from the meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative at the Time Warner Center today: Laura Bush will participate in September's second Davos-on-Hudson.

Murdoch will be there too, of course. And the main underwriter, again, is Tom Golisano, incongruously seated front and center between his wife and Democratic partisan warrior John Podesta.

I think I will be nauseaus from all this big buck VIPs making believe they're saving the world and hobnobbing with the Clintons and Bloomberg and Podesta and GOlisano and kissing up to the headliners and wanna be legends. Money, celebs and politicians - it's a place not to be.

Then let's listen to people in government, the NGO's, the qualified non-profits and university experts. And hell yeah, we oughtta get views from Bush Administration as well as from the folks who hate him.

The whole thing is full of crap.

See, this is the problem with the radical, irrational left. Your arguments make no sense!

I bet you're one of the people who actually believe Fahrenheit 9/11 was truth.
