Well Rush cleared up what Republican/Tea Party feels about women and it was nice to see how other men spoke out and defended women. I was shocked Republican/Tea Party women accept this opinion of themselves. Advertisers don't feel the same way as they drop out. Senator McCain waited to see what would happen as he was afraid to speak out but now he's all over it in hopes people believe him. With the fixation on women's private body parts its clear these men are sick.

As the GOP want to keep the promise made by Bush/McCain/Graham to bomb Iran for Israel it seems people aren't buying another illegal invasion. But Senator McCain is calling for President Obama to go it alone and bomb Syria like we did in Iraq. Contractors need to get back to War Profiteering and Law Makers are paid to make it happen.

Putin took a listen by George W. Bush on how to fix a win for President. Americans like to forget in 2000 voters were denied the right to vote, fixed voting machines and threats to employees. All that didn't work so it took the 5 US Supreme Court Justices to appoint for the first time a US President. Very little the US can say about fixed Presidential elections. Now Putin is seeing how money buys the office of a US President, Jim Crow Laws passed in many States and if all that fails there is still the 5 US Supreme Court Justices waiting appoint another Republican President.

I feel bad about Karen Santorum and Ann Romney who have to deal with the fact the GOP leader ID's women in that dirty name and their husbands can't defend them because of offending the Party. Karen Santorum knows how hard it is for a women to decide on an abortion as she not only taught that as a nurse but had to make the same decision herself when her life was at risk. Karen taught about contraception as she worked in a doctors clinic. Ann Romney had her life saving experience when she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis as she used medication in birth control to help her condition. Mrs. Paul a good Mom and grandmother knows alot but stays silent. Calista Gingrich knows her place and stays in it as she hopes Newt isn't ready for a younger women.

have a great day all

    I find it amazing how the democrat party and MSM has taken a non -issue and turned it into a national crisis. What started out as our government infringement on church rights turned into women not being able to get contriception pills that have been available for more than 40 years now. Any woman can go to walmart or Target and get a monthe supply for $9.00. Planned parenthood hand them out for free.

    I like to race cars on weekends but it is expensive. I think the government should help me out.

    This country is creeping up on 16 trillion dollars of debt and the major crisis is sex protection. This country is doomed. Thanks progressives.

      Good Evening Mr.Williams, A fine broadcast this evening as always. So very tragic and sad the devastation in Indiana and Kentucky due to the terrible tornadoes. So extremely sad the loss of so many lives as ones thoughts and prayers go out to all the families. And may those injured recover quickly.

      The report by Mr.Holt from Henryville, Indiana showed some massive destruction in the wake of the tornado carrying 175 mph winds. The video done by one woman before she found shelter in the bathtub was frightening. Now three days after the storm people are filing into churches to get food and other necessary supplies. Seeing so many volunteers from the State and all parts of the nation in wonderful because it shows such generosity and kindness of people to help eachother out in times of desperate need. One hopes the recovery continues on a quick path and those people are able to rebuild.

      On another note the report by Andrea Mitchell about the meeting of President Obama and Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel revealed definite differences of opinion on how to handle the Iranian Nuclear program and whether military strikes are to be done. President Obama believes sanctions against Iran could work and provide a window, yet Prime Minister Netanyahu states there is no time for patience with Iran. One hopes things remain peaceful and no military strikes are necessary.

      The "Making A Difference" segment by Chris Jansing showed how people over 50 in joining the PeaceCorps are truly bringing their life experiences to help those in need. Making sacrifices to help others and feeling no regrets in missing out on anything. An inspirational piece.

      Thank You for the broadcast Mr.Williams. Peace to You and to All!

      Be Well Everyone!

      Stay Extra,Extra Safe and Well Richard!

      Take Extra,Extra Good Care Richard and Crew!

        Brian and Lester, Continuing great coverage of the devastation in Kentuckiana, and I pray for all.

        As for Rush Limbaugh, I hope they don't let him off the hook because he cannot take his words back. The

        damage is done to the young woman who, hopefully, will reap the whirlwind with men like him, and the

        War on women, and that's what it is, a War on women, and it is shameful and must stop. Have a nice day!

          It will be interesting to see who is still on the air this summer & fall when the democrat planned chaos breaks out. I'm betting on Rush.

            It may be a hot summer! Very interesting, as Maxwell Smart coined and I bet you don't remember him,

            right?

              Hi Phyllis I wanted to add my comment about Rush who cleared up his Parties feeling about women but his last honest commit really set the record right as he said " young single white women over educated doesn't mean intelligent". Many advertisers dropped Rush because of their respect to the women in their lives. But we are seeing how many men have no respect for women as they line up behind the Republican spokesman Rush Limbaugh. The candidates running for office really can't criticize Rush and even Speaker Boehner couldn't defend women against Rush's comments. There will be a final candidate for the race for President but it's sad to see how some men don't remember what their Moms taught them.

                Jackie, my husband was raised right by his mother and I have reaped the blessings. Usually when you

                talk about reaping and sowing, it is all negative but not in my case because I reaped what she had sown.

                And thank God my husband has a great memory.

                    I appreciate what you said so much, Jackie; and I will tell my husband what you said, and I know the

                    feeling will be mutual.

                      Get Smart wasn't one of my favorites back in the day. As far as this so called War on Women goes we'll see (sadly) how many women get harmed due to the chaos the commie prog traitors start this year. Say a prayer for the sheepdogs and their families.

                        This is a War they can't win so my advice to them is to Get Smart. BTW, Ranch Dressing is terrific on

                          There is no War on Women. Obama and his Super PACs (some call them news networks) started this crap because Obama was losing women in the polls. There was some democrat pollster on Washington Journal this week that called the new group "Birth Control Moms" <--- that right there would insult the hell out of me if I didn't have a pair :-)

                          Maybe instead of messing with the Catholics and trying to make them go against their conscience Obama can order the Unitarian Universalist to pick a side already.

                            No War on Women, where have you been? Another example Billy Crystal at the Academy Award said

                            Meryl Streep was either the greatest actress or a dedicated whore,. Shocking!!! To pretend

                            there is no threat is a sign of weakness and not strength I blamed Rand Paul for creating a sexist, racist

                            climate in Kentucky but now I realize it is nationwide and he jumped on the bandwagon. The question is

                            why now? and it's not because of the upcoming election in November, and I guarantee that,.

                              PS Dave, and if a woman knows what she wants and goes after it, she is demonized like S/S Hilliary Clinton.

                              In a Louisville Courier Jounral newspaper years ago, an article appeared, saying that Hilliary would stand

                              beside Satan to get what she wants. O, please! Dr. Freud, obviously bedeviled, asked: "What does

                              a woman want?" Respect for starters, and men who don't get that, should get out of her way.

                                #5.4 - Wed Mar 7, 2012 10:42 AM EST

                                Billy Crystal did that? mmmmm Did Obama call Meryl Streep and ask her how she was holding up? OH wait he's a member of the "one party" so of course he gets a pass. I quit paying attention to that crowd back in 2003.

                                Look at it this way. Every time Progressives declare a war on something we end up with more of it so soon you women will out number all us men.

                                I don't think much of either of the Clintons. The world is on fire but Hillary has better PR than Condi ever had.

                                  #5.5 - Wed Mar 7, 2012 2:50 PM EST

                                  mmmmmmm, I never thought of it like that and you do have a point. Yep, Billy Cystal said that. In fact

                                  when I heard it, I asked my husband if I heard right and he said yes and I think he was as shocked as I was

                                  but it did not faze him if that makes sense..

                                  TGIF Dave, and have a great weekend. Phyllis

                                    Dave, it just came to me. Meryl Streep was the leading lady in "Out of Africa" which took place in Kenya

                                    and I believe it is correct to say that President Obama's father was born there so maybe the president

                                    should give our greatest actress a call as well. Mmmmm!!!!

                                      Good Evening Mr.Williams, A fine broadcast this Super Tuesday. The GOP Candidates all vying for votes in 11 States with 424 Delegates up for grabs. NBC Political Team always does a great job covering the election returns and looking forward to the Special Coverage at 10pm on NBC.

                                      First of all the amidst the elections President Obama held a News Conference speaking about Iran and their growing nuclear program which was the subject of his meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu on Monday. As President Obama stated this is "not a game" and should not be taken as "casual" because this is a serious issue. The United States will not tolerate a nuclear Iran and not sending a message of weakness to Iran. One hopes there will be not strikes on Iran, but Israel may strike Iran in the coming months. Time will tell.

                                      On another note the report by Mr.Costell about Stehanie Decker who lost limbs while protecting her 5yr old daugther and 8yr old son during the tornado hitting her home. Laying on top of her children in covering and protecting them from getting hurt by all the debris was heartwrenching. It was incredible and wonderful they all survived and are now safe and sound. Truly a wonderful family with true faith and love within all of them.

                                      Thank You for the broadcast Mr.Williams. Looking forward to more election coverage. Peace to You and to All!

                                      Be Well Everyone!

                                      Stay Extra,Extra Safe and Well Richard!

                                        Brian you left out the reason we're hearing all this talk of War with Iran. Well it seems it has nothing to do with Nukes or possible attack. Israel will have an election and Netanyahu is show boating for votes and using the US as the stage. Iran has their election and needs to show they have a great act. Yes the US candidates running for President have joined in with Wow let's bomb Iran as the crowd cheers. Facts Netanyahu is out, Iran has no Nukes and building any and yes candidates saw how easy it was for Cheney to trick the American peope into the invasion of Iraq when everyone knew there were no WMD's but the lie worked. At lease Powell apologized for lying and Bush and Cheney explained the spin as the US would control Iraq's oil fields to allow Americans to get lower cost gas. Well now Senators McCain and Graham see that story isn't working for Israel so they have moved on to get the US to bomb Syria. What's more interesting is how the GOP control Congress wants to give the President the power for a pre emptive attack on Iran. You can't this stuff up. Not one sane person would again pre emptively bomb a country for another country. For some reason the GOP want the Contractors to get back to War profiteering.

                                        Great news tonight and bless the Mom who saved her kids. The young Mayor has the support of the citizens in his town and their proud of him.

                                        The Super 10 Primaries/Caucus was interesting as it leaves the candidates still in the race. Newt did get George but wasn't on the ballot in the State he lives. Rick Santorum did very well and Mitt pulled out Ohio. Ron Paul is just collecting delegates. Many Law Makers aren't running for re election and some are apologizing for voting for the Blunt Bill.

                                        have a great evening all

                                          Good Evening Mr.Williams, a great Wednesday broadcast. Always wonderful to see Richard on the broadcast and in the studio is even better! Nice to see Richard in New York! Looking forward to Rock Center tonight.

                                          First of all Richard's report from the Fukishima plant exclusion zone which is contaminated with radiation from the Fukushima plant disaster a year ago. Due to the earthquake and tsunami a year ago the Fukushima plant exploded radiation and steam all over this area making it a "no man's land" for twelve miles around the plant. The town once inhabited by around 10,000 people has become a ''haunting" place as Richard stated with homes and businesses totally abandoned. Just everything left the way it was when the disaster struck the area. Seeing the man's office and home was disturbing since he only has alittle access to his home to get anything of belongings. All kinds of things simply left alone where they lay such as the laudromat clothes, homes with children's toys outside, any many other things. Only cows roaming the city and no people is terribly strange. As the man stated it hs a death town not possibl to clean up, but eventually sealed off. As Richard stated in the studio the town will be contaminated for years to come. Very sad and tragic.

                                          Excellent Reporting as Always Richard!

                                          The report by Andrea Mitchell about the crisis in Syria showed how the government of Syria is still attacking the city of Homs and other cities. Now attacking cities along the Turkish border which is frightening to the residents. It does appear that stopping Assad will be tougher than when trying to stop Qadhafi since the regime and army are more sophisticated. President Obama stating the United States will not go into this situation alone and there is no simple solution to ending the crisis. With Syria blocking humanitarian aid to the people in desperate need of help it is a tragic situation. Pressure upon the Assad regime may help in quelling the violence. Only time will tell.

                                          Disturbing and interesting report by Mr.Costello about the solar storm around the sun and how the magnetic field will have an effect on communications systems on earth. One hopes as said in the report it is very low.

                                          Thank You for the broadcast Mr.Williams. Peace to You and to All!

                                          Be Well Everyone!

                                          Stay Extra,Extra Safe and Well Richard! Excellent Reporting as Always! Very brave of you going into the area around the nuclear plant. Looking forward to more of your report on Rock Center!
