could be there to discuss "feelings"



They'd be tough for Johnny wood for brains to refute.

myfoxaustin just had a decent report showing Dr. Suzanna Hupp saying she threw things at her TV when hearing of Virginia Tech and said I TOLD YOU SO

"GUNS SAVE LIVES if they get that concealed carry bill on campus passed"


Also interview with CHL instructor
and lots more ... was on TV (followed by idiotic statements from Colin Goddard who advocates getting shot 4 times over 10 minutes rather than fighting to live)

They attached just a tiny bit of video to this story

I don't see the entire video, but this 9:00 broadcast will be repeated at 2:00 A.M. ... and possibly that portion maybe in the morning (Fox news morning) at 4:30 and 5:00 a.m. (and they run news all morning till 7 or 8 a.m.) If anyone wants to record somehow off the "watch live" link) on that site

Kory, I'm sure you'll do fine. Just make the antis stick to the facts and don't let them get away with their lies. Wish I could attend.

[Jasonw560]

Moon Draper? Really?

How did it go?

[RPB]

I think it was channel 24 (maybe 42) at 10:00 news had a brief blurb/video while it was going on ... not a lot.

Not seeing on either website yet

I know Moon, he's a great guy. I can't imagine anyone having a beef with him

That panel was brutal. I can only answer so many 'what if' questions so many times. About 90% of the questions were aimed at my side of the panel, so it was a long evening. Got a few good stabs in on Woods, so that was fun.

If I get my hands on the video, I'll post it.

And oh yeah, the Representatives didn't get to participate. They were tried up on the house floor.

[Jasonw560]

I listened to what I could take of your debate with John Woods on the Katie Austin show. I can only listen to so much "airhead talk" (all the "like", "you know", and "um") from the host before I start losing IQ points.

Send us a youtube link when you get the video up.
