CNN CROSSFIRE
Should Pilots Have Guns?; Are Any Rules for New Media?

I caught a bit of the second part of this, and (as Josh Marshall has said) Begala was really giving Matt Drudge the what-for. (And Bowtie Boy was just sitting there and letting him.) There have been reports that the GOP is going to boycott Crossfire, basically because Begala and Carville are mean.

This is incredibly laughable, of course. Yes, they're mean, but they're just acting like mirror images of the usual Crossfire Republicans, or like any given Fox News talking head. Democrats are used to this, while Republicans usually have to face strawmen, or wimpy left wingers, or the occasional TNR Democrat.
