Tweety and the 911 Ad....

[dennis4868]

If Gore or Kerry had used 911 in their adds and showed pictures of the dead you know darn well Tweety last night would have been all over this and that would have been the entire show. He would not be saying how great the ads were. Tweety would be yelling his guts out demanding Kerry or Gore pull these ads. But what did you hear last night on his show? How wonderfull the ads were and showing it over and over! People....the Goring of Kerry has begun. It is in full force!

1. What was Tweety's position in the Carter Administration? n/t

2. I believe Tweety....

was working for Tip O'neill during the late 70s and early 80s if I am correct....

5. He frequently states that Carter was his old boss,

I'm curious if it was when carter was in the white house.

11. I thought I heard him say once that he wrote speeches for Carter

but I could be totally wrong

9. was he in 120 Tremont Street office in 76?

I recall seeing a face like his in Tip's re-election office at the time - but it has been many years, and there were many Irish faces there!

12. Then he found out how much you can make being a RW shill

To hell with speech writing,I'll get my own show on the tube and bash Liberals and boot lick Republicans.

I can't believe how many jump on the Tweety bandwagon when once or twice a year he stands up for a Dem. They think he's a changed man or at least become "fair and balanced". BS,Dems don't make out his paycheck,Repugs do.

4. Kerry can use 911 in his ads

"it was a shared experience" don't forget. Bush should be allowed to use 911 on the grounds tht it does pertain to his job performance, the kick is how will he use it? If he overplays it then it will probably backfire on him, which is good for Kerry. If he underplays it then it's not such a big deal and at least it's not bad for Kerry

Kerry can show how he stood behind the president after 911 only to have that trust betrayed when we wrongfully went to war.

6. Tweety is a pseudo democrat

His true sympathy is with the republicans. He constantly interupts his guests, unless he agrees with them.

For the most part I will not watch any so-called news that cnbc presents, it is so one-sided, even their business news

8. Every Time 9/11 is brought up, it's a nail in AWOL's coffin. He failed to

protect the nation which he TOOK AN OATH OF OFFICE to do.

Do you think the japanese emperor would have used images of the hiroshima and nagasaki bombings in his re-election campaign, if he had the means to do so?? uh.. no.

10. good point

...and I don't recall Bill Clinton using footage from Oklahoma City in his 1996 reelection campaign, either.
