Shrub's coat tails - The GOP is goin' down!!!

[mandyky]

After listening to both Gov. Owens of Colorado and Rep. Drier of California making excuses for shrub's 7 minutes on 9-11, I can see Americans around the country asking their reps and senators what Bill Maher asked both these guys tonight. If they keep making excuses for shrubya, we may sweep the House, Senate and WH!!

[Walt Starr]

1. I noticed Drier lost it a couple of times

and ended up walking out on Maher.

[sandnsea]

5. I know!!!

Wasn't that funny. I have NEVER seen Drier get pissed off. And that Pravda comment was totally over the top. Wohoo! It feels soooo good to have them on the run for a change.

2. It was wonderful to see

such enthusiasm on the show tonight. It gives me a lot of hope.

[redstateblues]

3. Will there be an ad with Bush reading "My Pet Goat"

They say he's decisive. Tweety says he was courageous to go to ground zero- blah blah blah. Who couldn't have done that

[Walt Starr]

6. Hopefully a 527 will!

It would be AWESOME!

[lpbk2713]

8. The appearance at ground zero was just a photo-op

to redeem Shit-for-Brains after his vanishing act in Air Force One right after the attacks. He was scared so bad he was messing his pants and didn't want anyone to see him.

[Enraged_Ape]

9. Well, Clinton was there, for one, at least a day before monkey man was

And Clinton had to travel from the other side of the world (Australia) to get there.

Chris Matthews can suck me. I know he'd love to.

[mandyky]

12. Clinton went to NYC becuz his daughter was there

and becuz he had the new office in Harlem, and wanted to comfort people. Shrub went for the photo-op - NO DOUBT!

[kclown]

14. I'm the last person to apologize for *, but we're engaging in black/white

here.

1.  It's not "My Pet Goat" but "The Pet
Goat".  It's not a stand-alone book; it's part of a
reading primer.  See the current New Yorker for details.

2.  The Secret Service was apoplectic about * going to New
York because their NYC office had been in the WTC and was
gone.  * reportedly had to insist on the trip.

[Skittles]

27. sure

like he "insisted" on going to Viet Nam

[Kool Kitty]

19. And he can't even use the photos from

the WTC appearance, because the families and rescue workers don't want them used. I would think he was more courageous if he made a public appearance that really allowed the public in, not just people that are willing to sign a loyalty oath.

[Liberal Gramma]

4. Maher was HOT tonight!

Drier lost his cool, spluttered red-faced, and tried to hang on to the official Repug line, but was outmanned by Michael Moore, Kim (can't remember her last name) former Prime Minister of Canada, Ralph Nader, and Maher himself. Moore came onstage to a standing ovation--it was GREAT!

[mandyky]

10. Kim Campbell

This is the second time I have heard her speak - CSpan had her on WJ during the Convention.

[belle]

24. So happy. Dreier represents my former hometown. He is a fuck.

Maybe he'll FINALLY go away now, but I doubt it; he'd had a lock on that office for ages.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

7. Shrubya's coattails is a roll of t.p. stuck in his crack unfurling all the

way down the hall from the bathroom.

[ClassWarrior]

11. Dang. Don't have HBO here.

What happened?? Was it good? Do I need to find a tape??...

[NMDemDist2]

13. yes and yes

it was great. MM says "but he's lying! You can't let them get away with it! I'm no weak kneed liberal, I'm gonna fight when they lie"

or words to that effect

[City Lights]

17. Did I miss it?

Did you see it in the Phoenix area? I thought it was on at 11:00.

[NMDemDist2]

20. i have dish network, i watched the east coast feed

don't panic hehehehe

[City Lights]

21. Phew. I've been watching the clock and waiting for 11:00.

Glad I didn't read the TV Guide wrong. :-)

15. We should bring goats to the RNC

The terrorists are coming! BAAA! BAAA!!!

[lapfog_1]

16. Damn, now I got to order H-BLO

but OK, anyone that can get that blowhard, Drier, to walk
off of an appearance on national TV, I gotta support that.

This sounds about 10 times better than PI.

[LTR]

18. This part was funny

Drier told Moore his movie was full of lies.

Moore asked him if he saw it. Drier said no.

Asked Moore for $9.50 to see it. Moore told him to buy a ticket to 'Catwoman' and go in to see his movie.

Drier must be feeling pretty embarrassed right about now.

[NightOwwl]

23. That was really stupid of Drier.

What did he think, that Moore was just going to sit there and take it? And he didn't even see the movie. Good move, Drier.

[mandyky]

25. Real Time will replay a few times - check HBO web site

I tuned in a little late and missed some of Michael Moore.

[mandyky]

26. We need to totally, politically destroy GOP Pols

like Dreier and Owens who think it is:
1)Okay to lie to us
2)okay stick up for W when he is obviously wrong
3)okay to criticize and demonize people, in this case Michael Moore and his documentary when they haven't seen it.

I am not big on revenge, but boy howdy, if we win the WH, and both houses of Congress back, those folks need to have a lesson about not impeaching W for sending us to war with Iraq, among other things.
