--Ellen: Dick Morris baselessly accused the Clintons of money laundering. No liberal guest speculating about Dick Cheney's cozy connections to Halliburton nor the Bush family's chumminess with the Saudis, e.g., would get one hundredth of the respect Morris gets week after week on FOX News.

Donna:  This week on Fox and Friends they continued to bash Hillary Clinton while President Bush (the uniter not the divider) made a terrible statement against the Democratic Presidential Candidates at CPAC.

Outrageous Quote:  Ann Coulter edged out Sean Hannity last week with this doozy about presumptive Republican nominee John McCain: (he) "lies, he has no honor," and "claims he'll be tough on terrorism but he's very upset that we're dropping water down the noses of terrorists."
