It's the incompetence, stupid (Al Franken's on)

[realFedUp]

Al Franken's "new" slogan....of course, some
of us said that a lot earlier :-)

Al's on and he has a good line-up today.

TUESDAY'S SHOW
We’ll kick things off with Baptist minister Tony Campolo, author of Speaking My Mind. He’ll weigh in on the election, and talk about why devout Christianity and right-wing politics don’t need to go hand-in-hand.

William Langewiesche is next on our roster—he’s the Atlantic Monthly journalist who came to national prominence after writing a stunningly detailed story about Ground Zero. His new article, in this month’s Atlantic, explores the US-occupied “Green Zone” in Baghdad.

Finally, America Coming Together Chief of Staff Harold Ickes rounds out the show, talking about the battle for the White House—and the fight to get voters to the polls.

1. Zarquawi

several chances to wipe out Zarquawi but kept
him around because feared it would undercut
the administration's case to go after Saddam.

[realFedUp]

2. Bush on Telemundo

Bush said the war against Iraq is necessary,
still trying to tie bin Laden and Al Queda to
Saddam.

[realFedUp]

3. Franken doctrine...send in enough people to guard the huge explosives

.

[realFedUp]

4. I'm ready for the oy, oy, oy show already....

oy chorus!

[realFedUp]

5. shortest oy oy oy show...

Al voted today...it was a little crowded.

[realFedUp]

6. First time New Yorker has ever endorsed a Pres. candidate-Kerry

Thank you finally says Al to the New Yorker for
telling the truth about Bush's taxes.

[realFedUp]

7. Christy Harvey on....

she's not lipsincing. She's talking about Iraq....
America got punked! Conflicts would be weeks, not
months, the oil would pay for itself....what looting?

[realFedUp]

8. Mastication Theater

Not supposed to eat on radio Katherine pointed out
and how MT came around...

Today's episode: Assassination Attempt...Karen
Hughes has gone on a plot to keep Clinton out
of campaigning for Kerry...hehehe.

[realFedUp]

9. Ok, this is an excuse for Al and Katherine to eat...

disgusting!

[LizW]

11. Oh my god, that was funny

The best part was Katherine totally losing is at the end when Cheney shot George Soros. :D

[realFedUp]

10. Dick Durbin on next

one of my fav Senators.

[realFedUp]

12. Here for a fundraiser where Al will do schtick.

Talking about Durbin's roomies...other
pols....Schumer doesn't pay for anything
and eats everyone else's food...hehehe.

[realFedUp]

13. Asks Durbin for the election skinny....

2nd district of Maine....needs some help Mainers.

He's been to Ohio, will go to New Hampshire...
talking about Catholic voters. Arnie's Catholic
and bishops didn't go after him for his pro-choice
stand...

partisan Catholic biships anyone?

[burythehatchet]

14. I think Al's found his radio voice

he opened up with a tirade that would have made malloy proud. The Franken Doctrine. Al's figured out the format and he is going to be a lethal weapon for many years to come.

[realFedUp]

15. oh yeah.

The Baptist progressive evangelical's on....I
don't know how that all makes sense, but will
listen...

[realFedUp]

16. Tony Campolo on now

Bush said Jews can't get to Heaven when first
running...Campolo says that God's grace as manifested
through Jesus is wide reaching...no one should make
those kinds of judgements.

He makes good sense.

[realFedUp]

17. Al says abortions have gone up since Bush was selected

Abortions declined during Clinton's term...
well, when the rightwingnuts don't
respect the use of birth control....

[realFedUp]

18. Gays......

talks about Leviticus, right after it's an abomination
to touch the skin of a dead pig...which would eliminate the
use of footballs...

[realFedUp]

19. Tony should have his own show

Take it on the road Tony!

[realFedUp]

20. Let the state give civil rights to civil unions...

The church shouldn't be marrying people...just
a blessing for two
