15. EarlG is amazing.
He was running around with Hillary and folks like that at the Boston Convention - must be his winning personality and the fact that he can hold a lot of beer :) good beer I might add..

Hillary at the convention was all over him, but his galpal was able to lure him away from Mrs Clinton with her beauty, charm and wit.. she's a total babe, oops.. wife might read this.. still, you are one lucky guy Earlg ;)

11. Exactly! The "outrage" over Clinton's BJ has always been a hoax.
Right wing a-holes have no shame.

5. Mr. Smith DOES Washington.
I'm sure his excuse was that he was stimulating the economy by keeping a woman "gainfully employed." :eyes:

7. What a scumbag. HEY SMITH....IT'S NEWS BUDDY!!!!
Someone should go find the hooker he got down with and find out exactly what kind of a perv he is.

They should make a 45 minute newspiece interviewing the hooker...and invite him to comment afterwards!

12. Putting Everyone at Risk - A BJ on an Interstate
I don't particularly care if some rich guy tries to contract new species of herpes from a hooker. But I do care when they get a BJ from a hooker while they are driving a Mercedes down Interstate 83.

He was putting the lives of other drivers at risk.

According to the Baltimore Sun, that was in the police report concerning Sinclair's current CEO (and one of its principal owners).

17. is this the best argument we have?
I understand the anger, but what does this have to do with the legality of broadcasting a 40 minute campaign ad before an election?

Isn't this what we attacked the right for? Won't this open us up to hypocrite charges?

I think we're best served to just demand equal time, or if nothing else, adequate time to respond to the documentary. This won't be the first airing of this movie, so if there are any lies, the DNC can easily document them. All it takes is one easily recognized minor distortion and the entire movie can be discredited, and it'll count as a negative against the Bush administration, because the public will associate the broadcast with Karl Rove.

19. b.s.
The guy is running an hour long attack ad infomercial "on principle." That's bullshit. He couldn't recognize principle if it was in his lap giving him a blowjob. Oh wait. . .

He was married, driving down the Interstate in a company-owned, 3000 lb Mercedes, getting a blowjob from a hooker. Apparently, he was a regular customer. In my book, that makes him a scumbag a-hole unfit to force his "principles" on a flea, much less 25% of the country.

22. Thanks, for the e-mail. I'm going to ask him if he made the "girls" hum
the national anthem while they performed their services on him.

He's a real patriot, you know. Probably pisses "red, white, and blue" too but thank godness, they've got a pill for that now.
