Open lines on CSPAN for Bush's speech
This should be interesting. It would be great if a DUer gets in.

1. Oooh, a conversion!
Lifelong Dem and Bush hater who listened to speech and Bush just touched his heart. "I became more humble about my hatred about President Bush." He became much more proud to be an American.

Yeah, right! :eyes:

3. I didn't believe that guy for a second
Edited on Wed Nov-19-03 09:21 AM by girl gone mad
since one of the first things he said was "I was against the war for oil" or some such blatant attempt to pass himself off as a dem.

If he was truly against the "war for oil", he wouldn't let some phony speech sway him.

edited for spelling.

6. Look, DUers, we must admit that it WAS bullshit but it was PRESENTED

WELL. The lies were covered with the sheep clothing that they wanted to present to the world. None of those arguments were used when the war was prepared years ago by PNAC.

10. You hit that nail on the head.
Anyone who thinks BushInc. won't be able to put up a convincing front for the majority of people isn't paying attention.

They control MOST of the media and Democrats are susceptible to manipulation as easily as Republicans. Look how the media has controlled the storyline of our primary. Supposedly smart Democrats jumped on the bait thrown by the media.

12. He may have made a good presentation but
he said absolutely nothing new. I don't see how this will cause anyone to change their position. All he's done is rehash the backtracked reason for going to war from WMD's to Sadaam is so bad.

This will change no one's mind. If this gets him a poll bump, the people are way stupider than I ever imagined... and the people have lost a lot of ground with me since they elected the Schwartz.

spewing out of the mouths of some of these callers. :eyes:

8. using the call-in to pander to * ... is fraudulent ...
... and destructive as it makes a mockery of our system and chips away at the foundation of our democracy ...

I'll be looking for a photo showing any of the royal family showing any sign of being happy with the situation they're in -- providing refuge within their bubble for smirk ... I imagine they'll just be going through the motions with displeasure to let the viewing public they're not pandering, but being accomodating.

11. The freepers give theirselves away as soon as they open their mouths
with their whiney tone.
