Tweety had Molly Ivins and Blankley (Moony WashTimes). Blankley
said he would like to see SANTORUM at the Repug convention... Molly said she would too! for different reasons of course.
By the way, Tweety insists that Dems must have somebody who is antiabortion (he calls them pro-life, of course) as a speaker in the convention. WHY DO THESE FOOLS THINK THAT THEY HAVE ANY SAY?????

2. Because Tweety is our sworn enemy.
He brings no real issue based debate to the table. I bet 80% of the country could give a shit weather Repukes has pro-choice people or if Dems have the other.

However, as far as the Fundy right is concerned, I would be MAD AS HELL if my politicians whore'd those people who are against the cause. Leaf let that to the congregations.

3. He also launched into a misogynist screed
about women politicians who raise their voices. Barbara Boxer, he said, like Hilly Clinton, cannot talk loudly because women's voices screech when they talk loudly, as opposed to men's voices, which sound authoritative.

People can complain about DUers who say bitch all they want; to me, shit like that is ten times more offensive than anything I read on here.

6. I love this comment coming from Tweety.
"women's voices screech when they talk loudly, as opposed to men's voices, which sound authoritative."

Hey Tweet, get a life and learn how to not interrupt your guests when they disagree with your views.

Tweety, you're nothing but a cheneying hypocrite and please just shut the cheney up.

4. Yeah I watched the Bushbuttlicker after I had sworn not to
Pissed me off ROYAL. I wanted to scream hey the pro-life speakers are at the Republican convention, dirtbag.

I don't want pro-life people speaking for ME as a Democrat. You don't want to have an abortion, fine. But don't be speaking for me. If you want to be Democratic and pro-life, fine, for yourself.

Hey, I know, maybe we should have anti-Gay people speaking at the Democratic convention, whadda think, Chris? I get it it-you are Catholic and anti-abortion. GREAT. Go vote for Bush again. Do you guys know that he admitted he voted for Bush on a show not that long ago? UGH. Such journalistic integrity. Hey, Let's call Frank Lutz and do another focus group.

His show is the worst because it claims neutrality, "Hey, I was in the Peace Corp and worked for Carter" but now it's nothing but a propaganda piece for the worst lying scumbag president this country has ever seen.

Rant over. HARDLIES.

5. ah yes. *That*.

Being a reasonable person, you forget that inside the Beltway almost everyone believes in the myth of The Conservative Majority. The pundits have had four years in which to convince themselves that it's true, that the numbers are lying. Pure group'think' and inability to understand numerical trends.

November will deliver a nice clue-by-four. But Democrats will have to kick ass and take names for a while after that before the bad mental habits die. Not that most of them seem able to adapt- check David Broder, who- even though he gets a clue every now and then- seems to think that northern Virginia Republicans are the epitome of the American electorate.

7. I don't understand why people like Molly
don't come back with the Republicans should have a pro-choice speaker at their convention. Dems just seem to let these opportunities slip by without calling the kettle black. We should only have Mary Beth Cahill out talking for us; she's got the balls to do it.

8. Oh but Mr. Tweety Hardlies claimed that the Republicans do let them
speak. He was basically claiming that Democrats censor those that don't agree with them. (No, dirtbag-the pro life people have a party and damn they can have it!) Get it-we want legal abortion, they don't. It's a big difference between us.


He was pissing all over the Dems, as is his favorite pastime.
This is a big fucking joke coming from the party that gave us "freedom fries", and attacks celebrity's that speak out.
