8. Scott needs PR lessons

You don't go on Wolf's show and tell him he's wrong.
A lot more tact is called for if this guy wants to come back.

[Sal316]

9. We can't really play too nice, though.

If someone's wrong, tell them they're wrong and then tell them HOW they are wrong.

[karlschneider]

13. I think you're wrong about that. Wolfie NEEDS a smack on the butt now

and then. Scott beat him like a bad piece of meat.
;-)

[trof]

18. Wolf isn't the adversary.

He's the microphone.
Ritter can make his point without trying to make Blitzer look bad.
I'm glad he's on and saying what he's saying, but he'd have more credibility if he didn't come across as so cocky and know-it-all.
Blitzer can turn him off.
He, and others like him, depend on the Blitzers of the broadcast media for a forum.
Do not bite the hand that enables.

[Sal316]

21. Wolf did a good job impersonating an adversary...

"But Scott....But, Scott..."

Wolf started in on him from the git-go (IMO), and Ritter did an admirable job of just telling him he's wrong. Period.

Peace!
Sal (young whipper-snapper)

oops!

[Sal316]

10. OMMFG! THe trailer story again?

S*** Wolf! How many times does this story have to be debunked before you believe it?

:grr:

[joanski0]

14. Scott told Wolfie he

was wrong several times. "Again you are wrong, Wolf". Wolf said What about that evidence, Scott (the trailers). Scott said "That's not evidence".

[Armstead]

11. Ritter

"Not an honest mistake...Part of larger pattern of deception."

Wolfe saying Niger didn't influence Congressional vote.

"You're wrong Wolf." It was used earlier to Congress.

"Perpetrated a fraud."

"We have no evidence Saddam was reconstituting nuclear program."

"I led investigation into (Iraqi scientist with nukes in backyard.) We were going to look into his house on UN. But not likely representative of viable nuke program. I believe he did this on his own. Iraqi scientists were competing with each other."

"Bio trailers not represent of bio program. Those trailers not equipped for bio weapons."

President has misled and fabricated. We have a quagmire.

[kentuck]

12. Will Wolfe give the results of the poll before his show ends ?

:)

[karlschneider]

15. I'm betting he will....the one day before yesterday IIRC was WAY bad for *

and he did announce it, to my astonishment.
:bounce:

[LEW]

16. Wolf certainly

tried to shake Ritter - No go - Good job Ritter!!!

Best sound bite: "No Wolf, you are wrong"

[DrBB]

17. No "internet sex scandal"????

Why Wolfie, I'm ashamed for you. You're going to lose that all-important Media Whore license if you keep slipping up like this.

[Native]

19. First half dealt with Blitzer bringing up the issue that

the State of the Union address was in Jan. and Congress had voted in Sept. (like the lie is not an issue because Congress voted before Bush lied). Ritter's comeback was that the CIA pitched this info to Congress along with the metal tubes crap specifically to get their vote. Ritter pointed out that Congress was intentionally misled (stated that senators changed their votes specifically because of this info, Feinstein for ex.), and that the "American public" was intentionally misled in the State of the Union address.

[DrBB]

24. Whereas the Wilson report was in Feb. 2002

...and the completely independent State Department Bureau of Intelligence and Research report came in March.

Hey, that's MARCH, Colon, and Wolfie. That's a long fucking time before September.

Now, let's just calm down and discuss another little issue here. If these reports about the veracity of a nuclear threat to the United States just, you know, mysteriously went missing--and remember, this is all AFTER 9/11, this is all SINCE The Day That (LIHOP) Changed Everything--then how come, Colon, HOW COME, Condi...

YOU STILL HAVE A JOB, you incompetent assholes.

Or perhaps you're telling the truth. In which case, how come, Colon, HOW COME, Condi...

YOU STILL HAVE A JOB, you lying assholes.

Or would you care to admit it was your fraudulent *president and the powers who stand behind him who REALLY fucked up here? Never happen in my lifetime....

[SEAburb]

22. Wolf didn't like it when Ritter took the ball and ran with it

Wolf kept trying to get Ritter to just focus on the SOTU remark. Damn Wolf is controling.
