3. He's an idiot. "The Democrats are losers/cowards/suck-ups"
Edited on Tue Dec-20-05 06:29 PM by mzmolly
He's a dink. Why not give Nader a show? :eyes:

Nothing like blaming the victim. "Al Gore wimp/coward/chicken/freak" - "you knew they stole the election and you did nothing about it." Puleeze Malloy, where's YOUR PROOF!? To insinuate Kerry and Gore KNEW the election was stolen (with in days) and did nothing about it is ludicrous. One can't gather evidence of such a crime (overnight and beyond) if there are no friggen paper ballots. Further, Mikey must have forgot about the chad thing down in Florida? Gore did fight, the SCOTUS handed Bush the nomination, along with perpetual malcontents who liken Democrats to Republicans, like - Mr. Malloy.

7. I don't agree with him about Gore, but otherwise, he's right on.
The spinelessness of most of the "Democrats" in Washington DC is what's killing this party, and enabling the Bush Criminal Empire to kill this country.

30. I think the minority of Democrats are spinless, but Malloy did not clarify
with the words "most of the Democrats in Washington" he said "Democrats are losers/cowards ..."

WTF good does it do for Boxer, Conyers, Kennedy, Byrd, Feingold, Kucinich, Dean and many others to fight when the "left" is blind to it?

10. Yeah Gore really fought hard after the election was over that obviously
Edited on Tue Dec-20-05 06:13 PM by Zinfandel
was stolen from him, and all democratic voters who put in their time, who donated money and put their heart in soul into defeating Bush and the facist!!!

And Gore and the Democrats, ALLOWED Bush's people to go into Florida, fight, further fix and steal the election!

AND GORE DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!

It doesn't get any higher than that.

54. Refusing the Supreme Court order like they did in the Ukraine is a start.
The leader said to hell with that, the people are with me, and we know we are right!

Of course that wouldn't fly here because that would mean people having to come out of their houses for political reasons (and I'm talking millions in several cities here people), which is rare in the US.

20. I saw 911 and appreciated that movie moment for what it was. Another
Mike attempting to justify his support of Nader in election 2000 - by vilifying Al Gore. Sure, Al Gore could have done what Boxer did in 2004, unfortunately - the end result would have been the same - futile and forgotten. I notice that Mike fails to mention Boxer, Conyers and many other Democrats who fight their ass off every day in his rants.

My husand digs Malloy, and today was the first day I tuned in. I listened for 5 mns and today will be the LAST time I tune in.

35. It had to be awkward as Hell for Gore, as VP to preside over that session.
...of course, standing up for himself, or even allowing the CBC to fully speak their minds would have been considered "grandstanding" or whatever. But at that point, he had nothing to lose and should have let them speak until they were out of breath.

What really pissed me off about that scene, and to this day, is that not ONE single fucking senator stood with the CBC on behalf of not just Al Gore, but this fucking country. Where were the so called "heroes" like Kerry & Edwards that day? Even more troubling, why did the actual LIBERALS remain silent? For as much as Barbara Boxer and Russ Feingold are loved on this board, where the fuck were they on that dark day in history?

41. Al Gore asked them not to stand with the CBC
So says Barbara Boxer and I think she would know. She said this past January when she DID stand up that she wanted to in 2000 but Gore asked her not to. Awkward as hell for Al Gore? Good. He left the entire country in hell.

58. They knew it was over for all practical purposes.
Boxer stood up this year as she regretted her previous decision in 2000, but in the end, it was just a show with no practical results. I did appreciate her taking said stand however.

Yesterday when Pete Daou said the FISA issue would disappear, I predicted the left would start shooting at the Democrats within a week, allowing Bush to scoot away again. lol. Didn't even take a week.

That guy is a complete fool.

27. This is nothing new for Malloy. He always rails against the wimpy
Dems. Always. He's not doing this just because of the wiretapping issue. he's always like this. He's right. The Democrats HAVE BEEN useless over the last 5 years. They look like they're finally growing some balls, but that took 5 YEARS.

31. An idiot for 5 years
No special talent there. Same shit, new day. Bush is on the ropes for one thing or other, and idiots like Malloy start throwing rocks at the Dems instead of Bush. Over and over again. Maybe because it's easier to sit outside the ring then to ever actually get in and fight the Bush bastards directly. That's what takes balls, which means Malloy is the one really lacking.

He throws BOULDERS at Bush on a daily basis! I might add that he fights for us every day on the radio! Remember, Left radio DIDN'T exist until AAR. He does fight the good fight and HARD. Just not the way you want him to fight it. He's right...the Dems have been USELESS for the last 5 years.

I know who's been going after the chimp for the last 5 years, and who hasn't.

As someone who is fortunate to have met, and protested with, Mike Malloy, I would in fact suggest that you haven't a clue who it is you're talking about here and where his sympathies lie.

Or who the fools are.

And nominal Dems of all stripes ought to learn when to get behind Congress and when to shut up. Malloy's bullshit is distracting, as is Wittman's, and I don't know how many times this is going to have to play out before people learn to get behind the basic message and let the nitpicky shit fall to the side.

Edited on Tue Dec-20-05 05:59 PM by Beelzebud
They can't get focused on anything, they can't convey a coherent message. They are useless.

Tell me.

What does the Democratic party stand for? What? I'd like to know, because when people ask me, I have no idea what to say. I can tell them my opinion on things, but the democratic party as a whole is completely divided between the few good ones we have, and the corporate shills that really are republican lite.

The last time he let his personality loose on her program she refused to let him finish the week. They since kissed and made up. So Randi if you are reading this we love him the way he is.

51. They both get it wrong every now and then.
I've caught Randi in quite a few factual lapses as well, but it's expected when you have a daily show. If it happens often or is something blatant like the Pigman (Limbaugh), then it's a problem. But most of the time, factually, they are on the exact same page.
