Holy shit. Dan Abrams slaps the shit out of that little weenie, Cliff May |
|
He had May and Huffington on to talk about the tape leak. May, true to form, was all over the lot spewing talking points. Abrams kept slapping him and trying to get him back on topic.
Finally, May spewed the crap about protecting the interrogators. Abrams shut him RIGHT THE FUCK UP by saying ...... "Cliff, there's already a law about this. They're protected."
May, once his little jaw came up off the floor, was incredulous and tried to ask Huffington for her 'opinion' on this fact. Abrams closed it all off saying "Cliff, there's no room for an opinion. Its fact. I'll cite the law for you if you're interested."

3. Cliff May is a fucking idiot.....same ole talking points, same ole |
|
bullshit....
He is that stupid to think that Americans belive that it's okay not to answer the question, "is waterboarding is torture or not"? The guy that was being questioned for the deputy DOJ position gave the same bullshit answer that the current attorney General gave which was I have to be able to examine...blah, blah...blah..the current Attorney General is investigating blah, blah, blah...I can't think and answer for myself. Another patsy....
Cliff May is irrelevant....he needs to jump ship like the rest of the rats.

21. May went down with jaws aflappin' |
|
His keepers will not be pleased.
IMHO, Cliff May should never be invited to any place with a camera and/or a microphone.

24. That's good, because I've watched Dan Abrams several times where he let that imbecile, May, go on |
|
and on, way past the point of civility, without shutting him up or shutting him down. Made me so aggravated, I stopped watching that show.

4. 'Twas a thing of beauty indeed. Abrams has always impressed me |
|
and lately he's been handing it to the RW hucksters on his show (and Cliff May is the Joey O'Brien* of the RW tin salesman).
*Cadillac Man; Robin Williams played him.

5. Its beyond me why Abrams keep putting that half-witted shill on his show.. |
|
Edited on Wed Dec-19-07 09:24 PM by K Gardner
the man has no discourse but to yell and filibuster and repeat the same crap over and over, all while refusing to even let the show's host get a word in. Abrams finally had enough tonight, but Mays really didn't seem phased to me.

9. "Mays really didn't seem phased" |
|
No, he'll go home thinking he 'won'. It's like dealing with fundamentalist religious types, they have an impenetrable wall of rationalizations built around their minds. No logic can get in.

12. Exactly. The only way to 'phase' him is to quit giving him a podium from which to spew forth. |

15. It's because they're not arguing. |
|
They're just fighting. Their only goal is to insult, shout over, and anger the person who doesn't share their belief. There's no room in their mind for doubt, so there's no discussion.
I don't think most of these people actually understand what debate is.

6. Dan Abrams listens to and is a fan of Steph Miller |
|
This morning a caller said that right wingers keep changing the subject on his show ..... Abrams in his smack down must have said 4 times
"Quit changing the subject." :rofl:
BTW ... i loved ... Dan, "you want me to quote the case law the covers this?"

7. Hopefully, it'll be up on youtube, soon enough. |
|
Cliff May, president of The Foundation for the Defense of Democracies (hey, it's got 'democracy' in it, so it has to be good!), is one slimy little bastard. I don't know how Dan was so calm. I was just watching it and wanted to reach through the TV and wring his neck.
One thing that set me off, he said that thing about "I thought you wanted to protect the identity when it comes to Valerie Plame...that's why they had to destroy it". Maybe he's used to talking to an audience of slack jawed morons with no critical thinking skills, and can shout down any rational minded people, but not here shitbag. If you want to protect the identity, all you have to do is pixilize it, or put bars on their identifying features. When Plame's name was mentioned, the cat was out of the bag. Two very different things. Dumbass.

16. Cliff May is suddenly a regular on Tucker and Dan Abrams |
|
MSNBC must have signed some kind of contract with him as a commentator. When May was on CNN all the time in the days leading up to the Iraq war in 2003, his big thing was to interrupt anyone who tried to challenge him and shut them down by talking over them until the segment was over. He did that over and over again. Apparently, Dan Abrams is not going to let him get away with it on his show.

19. I think it's time to start Tazing Cliff May when he refuses to STF up. |
|
Seriously tho, I love to watch a good debate from both POV, but it's insane to have one guest who drowns out everyone with screaming. Glad you mentioned he did the same on CNN.. was not aware of that.
