The interview is up on the show website. We didn't get a lot of time, but I tried to hold it down and throw in some humor considering the show is satirical in nature. Judge for yourself.

I'll also update the post

Congrats! And sorry I missed it: are there any podcasts up?

Hopefully we'll see steadily more press coverage ...

Not bad, not bad. Faith DID sound a little...racialicious to mine ears. Very nice interview indeed.

I enjoy the blog and was excited to get a chance to hear you live on PRI. However, I was quickly disappointed to hear you begin the segment grinning and proclaiming that the wiki tracker was born out of your laziness because you wanted to get others to do your work for you. You were too often a mugging stereotype tonight and I didn't find it funny at all. I can only hope that you fancied yourself satirical but, either way, you fell short of rising above the antics of any other "handkerchief head" that has been criticized as essentially jigging for the man (to my dismay you cut a couple of steps tonight as well my friend).

The Clintons MISTAKENLY decided they could trash Obama with racist smears, thereby doing damage to him in South Carolina....and NONE of the other Super Tuesday States would notice.

WRONG

What is mean and LOW CLASS in SC, is mean and LOW CLASS all across America.

THEY USE SCARE TACTICS IN IOWA AGAINST STUDENTS...

THEY USE RACE CARD AGAINST BLACKS IN SOUTH CAROLINA...

THEY USE SMEAR TACTICS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE ABOUT DRUGS AND ABORTION...

THEY USE LAWSUITS IN NEVADA AGAINST HISPANICS...

THEY WILL DO ANYTHING FOR POWER!!!!WELCOME TO THE CLINTONS WORLD!!!

HILLARY CLINTON OPPOSES ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS DRIVER'S LICENCE.

THIS MEANS THEY WILL HAVE TO DRIVE ILLEGALLY TO GO TO WORK!

THIS MEANS THEY CANT GET INSURANCE FOR THEIR CARS!

CLINTON SAYS WE HAVE THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT BECAUSE LYNDON JOHNSON SIGNED IT.

GOLDWATER RAN A CAMPAIGN AGAINST JOHNSON...

SO WHY WAS SHE CAMPAIGNING FOR BARRY GOLDWATER WHO WAS AGAINST THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT???

BY THE WAY CHECK OUT BILL CLINTON'S RACIST POSTCARD HE SENT TO HIS GRANDMA IN 1966 DURING THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT.

Here's a new one for the wiki:

Hillary tells Barack to shut up and go to the back of the bus.

In the New York Times:

''He serves as chair of the most important committee in the United States Congress,'' Clinton said of Rangel. ''He didn't get there by leapfrogging. He got there by lots of hard work.''

I want to know what exactly she means by hard work? Which of her "hard work" makes her ENTITLED to the Presidency. Was it supporting NAFTA? Welfare Reform? Don't Ask Don't Tell? The Defense of Marriage Act? Or her vote for George Bush's War?

If Charlie Rangel has done so much "hard work" then why isn't he the presidential nominee instead of you. After all, he's served in Congress and has the most experience.

You know what Hillary, you can get off my bus. You haven't paid the fare. Should you, a shameless politician who will say anything to win, get the nomination, I'm voting for McCain.

Can't get Fair Game on my local Public Radio Station. What time and station on XM?

Fantastic news!! And for those who have satellite radio, this program also airs on Sirus and XM!

Looking forward to hearing you! That Wiki is the bomb and it's great you're being recognized for it. :-)

I will listen to the program. Since the Clintons are playing the "what about the Republican attacks line," I decided to take that on with the wonderful of fiction this post entitled,
The Aftermath of a Clinton Nomination: Fiction (I hope)"

In my fictional world a split Democratic Party plus a Bill sex tape equals a 50 state landslide for McCain/Watts and losses of both the Senate and House majorities for the Democrats. Sadly, I don't think this is too far fetched. I hope life doesn't imitate art, but I have a bad feeling about it...

You know Hillary, it's so hard having a debate with you because you never remember what slimeball you took money from when it was convenient for you...

But on another issue, as far as I know, Rezko hasn't actually been convicted of...anything. Nevertheless he's already been convicted in the court of public opinion. I don't know if he's guilty or not, it just seems strange that the politicians would vilify a man who has yet to have his guilt proven in the judicial system of this country.

Did anyone see this?

Pictures of Billary with ...

TONY REZKO!

You know, Obama's best friend, the Chicago slumlord.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

'I DON'T REMEMBER MEETING REZKO'

**INTERNET EXCLUSIVE**

Photo surfaces of smiling Clintons with Tony Rezko.

MORE...

Clinton injected the indicted developer's name this week in debate with Obama: 'I was fighting against those ideas when you were practicing law and representing your contributor, Rezko, in his slum landlord business in inner city Chicago.'

Clinton tells NBC 'TODAY' show on Friday: 'I probably have taken hundreds of thousands of pictures. I don't know the man. I wouldn't know him if he walked in the door.'

This is from the Hillary is 44.org website:

Taylor Marsh further exposes the Sticky Fingers Republican in the act of misplacing his Democratic loyalty:

Obama: I have no doubt that once the nomination contest is over, I will get the people who voted for her. Now the question is can she get the people who voted for me? And I think that describes sort of one of the choices that people have, just a practical choice, as they move forward.”

There’s a resentment showing from Obama that is quite telling and lacks all grace. As long as everything was going along smoothly and the press was loving him, and there was no real scrutiny and he wasn’t being challenged, he was all for a different kind of politics and change. Now, not so much. The second he started losing we got another glimpse of the man. He sounds resentful after he’s lost a couple of tough battles. He seems to resent the possibility that someone would consider voting for Hillary and almost goes out of his way to scoff at the notion. Who would vote for her? Not my people! It’s the same type of attitude he displayed when he said about Clinton, “You’re likable enough, Hillary.”

I think we’re finally getting a look at the man who stepped on Alice Palmer, and pushed Bobby Rush aside. It’s not pretty.

Don't know if this is appropriate for the wiki page but you migt want to check out this site...it is clearly a backdoor to the Clinton war room.

I don't feel confident to add to the wiki myself, but what about this type of comment?

Quoted from http://www.breitbart.com/ar...

Zac Wright, a Clinton campaign spokesman in South Carolina, said it was "tough to take his comments too seriously."

"There hasn't been much action to match Senator Obama's talk," Wright said.

-end of quote.

I see that everywhere, but this repeat today finally made me say something. I also see this everywhere:

"He's just an empty suit."

Ugly plus.
