5. Please please PLEASE mention DU!
:D

Here's a question: what was the defining moment for Al; the thing that rang bells in his head and made him become such an outspoken liberal? He was on the case before Bush, but what was it, exactly, that helped him make the transition from comedian to political humorist?

4. Pell grants and college funding
Kerry should extend Pell grants to more people. Students and parents incur too much debt for an education. This effects a lot of voters, both of college age, and those with kids of college age, and would be a good, and liberal, position that would appeal to moderates.

11. hypocrisy of the church
Suggesting the denial of communion to anyone who supports abortion while ignoring all those candidates who support the death penalty. Aren't these two issues a moral equivalent to the church?

17. Tell him his dittohead friend was right about windmills
anything we can do to reduce dependence on foreign oil & gas AND to move towards renewables is VITAL (look at recent gasoline prices). Tough luck on the Cape Code residents who will have their view "ruined"!

19. Ask when Rumsfeld will be fired
1) Failure to capture Bin Laden (not surrounding Tora Bora)
2) Attacking in Iraq w/ an entire division on ships leaving the norther front wide open
3) Shock and Awe = premature Iraqulation
4) Leaving Al Zhirqawi alive

Once is a mistake (Afghanistan) Twice looks more like a paatern of behavior

20. If you get on with David Brock...
Ask them why he is such a whore, and where his credibility is. This dumbass gets a pass because he came clean on the right wing smear machine, and the left blindly embraces the guy, after the amazing amount of turmoil he gleefully caused the country over the course of eight years.

23. At least he's come clean and asked for forgiveness and redemption...
...and I, for one, thank him for it - he confirmed what we all suspected during the Clinton witch hunts.

25. Oh Brother. The man is dedicating himself to outing the RW echo chamber..
Edited on Wed May-19-04 12:21 PM by Kahuna
What he did is dispicable. There is no doubt about it. If David Brook was solely responsible for the VRWC, I'd probably feel the same as you. He was not responsible. They would have easily found another scribe to do their dirty work.

33. I'm sorry, they hung up on me. I'm sorry to keep you waiting
I'm just as pissed that I hung on so long and someone unintentionally or not let me off the line.

30. I'd ask why nobody asks more about the ex-MP's on 60 Minutes II.
Especially when know-nothings say we have enough boots on the ground.

Camp Bucca, that is, in southern Iraq. I'd bet an enterprising journalist could find other sites as well.

“The Palm Sunday riot was probably the worst,” Canjar tells Rather. “…At one point, it was me and another soldier guarding. I was watching 535
prisoners on my side….The prisoners started hitting us… called all the orders. Our other chain of command was
nowhere in sight….We did not see them throughout the whole riot.”
