McLaughlin Group - McLaughlin on Bush's Case |
|
I've been noticing that every time I catch the show - he's really been on Bush's case. A few weeks ago he had an entire show about auto safety and railed about SUV's and the air pollution casued by autos, etc.
I had always thought of him as pretty conservative...

1. McLaughlin cracks me up |
|
I enjoy watching the show for the sheer pleasure of seeing him cut Pat off, insist that HE is right ("WRONG!") and his "BYE BYE." I just wish the show was longer - it seems so rushed.
Back to your point, yes, he does seem to be going after Bush - or at least he seems to be somewhat objective anyway.

|
Make love not war :) I need to start watching again.

3. He has been on Bush's case for a long time |
|
McLaughlin has been a very harsh critic of Bush. I'd watch his show more often if I could stomach that disgusting Bush brown-noser Tony Blakely.

5. They had Lawrence Kudlow on today - even worse than Tony |
|
Didn't know that Kudlow was such a "whore." Luckily, Eleanor and Lawrence O'Donnell slapped them both down.

8. Ugh, you aren't kidding |
|
That Kudlow is AWFUL! An uptight, prudish, know-it-all looking man! And hateful too. So glad Eleanor and the good Larry kept him in his place :-)

6. I often disagree with John but I do think he's a pretty honest guy. |
|
I actually met him back in....argh, 1975?? or so in D.C. at the Hilton in Georgetown. Had flown my boss, a diehard wingnut there for some kind of convention and we all met up in the hotel. McLaughlin was the first "famous" person I ever met...I thought he was kinda cool. My boss was disapointed. ;-)

He used to be on Bush's bandwagon but perhaps as Ambassador Wilson, he's seen the light. He was horrible towards Clinton but if he's against Bush now all is I can is great!! People are waking up.

9. He's an ex Jezzy (jesuit), they're pretty openminded and fair |
|
Glad he's mad at dumbya.
McLaughlin himself has done some pretty weird stuff to staffers (making a female staffer smell a wet spot on the carpet) but I'm happy with him if he's questioning this loser administration.

11. That show is the best political debate show |
|
I watch it all the time. McGlaughlin has seemed pretty liberal recently from what I can tell. He has been critisizing Bush a lot.
The people on that show are better than those on other shows. Pat Buchanan at least critisizes republicans sometimes which is better than a lot of the right wing, republican hacks who just tout the party line.
