OK. I started watching MSNBC to hear the reviews-Tom Brokaw sucks ass
Edited on Mon Aug-25-08 10:03 PM by FrenchieCat
"I saw those African-Americans women in the audience tearing up."

NO TOM, many people had tears in their eyes.

Now, he's on the Black thing.....Playing the Race card, Again.

I will be writing to this asshole.

Her speech wasn't about race, it was about all of our dreams and aspirations.

Fuck you Mr. Presumptious piece of shit.

4. The fact that he had to refer to race right away shows that he has a problem
Now, I'm turning it off, because here comes mr. Harold "I suck ass too" Ford.

Look, Bill Kristol was up on FAUX saying "She didn't humanize him enough."
First of all, WTF is that supposed to me (isn't Barack human?)

And second of all, WTF is Bill Kristol doing criticizing a speech by Michelle Obama?

18. Kristol is just covering up his self-loathing hate for his propensity to perform fallatio on otters
He has a problem.

Michelle Obama stirred my heart and pulled tears of joy and respect from my eyes

7. I thought the same exact thing when he started his spiel
STFU! He almost ruined the moment by focusing exclusively on race... and I saw plenty of whites crying!

8. YES, he sucked. Chris Matthews had a very nice review, unlike Brokaw.
And I think Olbermann didn't like Tweety being squishy and honest.

9. WTF is up with Tom Brokaw?!?
I can see that he thinks Keith and Tweety are too partisan but it doesn't mean he should compensate for them to the point where he's just letting the RWers have their say without any critical thought into it at all.

10. Brokaw also said it was an amazing speech. Brokaw was not bad at all. Better than many other times.

13. I wish I could program my TV to auto-mute when Brokaw starts speaking
Not just him either...

I maintained my sanity by watching the coverage on CSPAN. Why torture yourself...

15. The fact that Tom Brokaw carries 6 golf balls in his mouth may have something to do with
why you cannot understand him.

16. And he couldn't say a damn thing without bringing up the Hillary supporters,
Hey Tom, get your damn jaw fixed so when you spout your partisan shit, we don't have to strain to understand WTF you're saying.

17. Brokaw is an over the hill senile drunk
He is indeed a presumptious piece a shit unworthy to empty Michelle Obama's garbage.
