What the f**k is going on????

[CatWoman]

Am I in Bizarro World????

Tweety is eating John Fund ALIVE!!!

ALIVE, I tell you.

Dems speaking up.

Republicans speaking up.

The press is speaking up.

BUSH IS FUCKED!!!!!

I'm coming, Elizabeth. It's the big one!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mari333]

1. Tweety needs to apologize for backing this f*cking war

for so long....and Fess Up that He was WRONG....

[diplomats]

3. I thought Tweety

was against the war, at least before it started.

[indigo32]

4. Tweety was never really in favor of this war

eom

[sandnsea]

33. He was one of the few against it

and said so on a very regular basis. After the war started, he shut up, patriotic and all that. But he did not back this war. Bush, on the other hand, he ought to be tarred and feathered for backing the 'buffoon'.

[Booberdawg]

35. Mathews has always been against the war

He has asked all along why is Bush lying about why he wants this war.

I like Chris Matthews. I get particularly annoyed with his overkill on the Clinton bashing, but he is a Democrat and he is hard on both sides most of the time. He doesn't put up with spin from either side.

That's not to say that I ALWAYS agree with him, but he has always one of my favorites. And right now he's got a woody for Bush. Big time! He put the responsibility for the SOTU squarely on Boy Idiot's shoulders and practically called him a moron. Said he was basically just Ted Baxter mindlessly reading script handed to him without having a clue about what he was reading. Which is no surprise to most of us.

I knew he was an idiot during the 2000 campaign. He is a disgrace intellectually. From day one since his selection I have been embarrassed for our nation. He is a laughing stock. And, so help me God, I am taking great pleasure at his making an ass of himself now that this nation (the rest of the world already knew it) is finally taking notice that he is a fucking crook.

This story has legs. I saw another report, I think it was still on Hardball, I think it was O'Donnell reporting, that she spoke with many on Capital Hill, Democrats and Republicans alike, that are questioning many other statements in the SOTU and the buildup for the war that they feel were discredited but passed along as fact that should be investigated now. Specifically, the aluminum tubes, (centrifuges?), the Al Quaeda connection, the insistence that they had nu-KU-lur capability, all unfounded. I can't cite the source off hand, but it was reported that there WILL be a bi-partisan Congressional investigation on this around September.

The Bush Crime Family is Fucked!

It's almost as if some power up high said "Okay - you can go after them now - And the media is allowed to report it. WTF?!?!?!?

They always go toooo far, and it always bites them in the ass. They never learn.

Someone pinch me! It's been a week - am I dreaming??

Linda

PS - Thanks - I needed that!

[leesa]

50. Tweety is no Democrat

He flip flops back and forth all the time. He was pro-war before it began when he saw he had to kiss up to the Repukes. He's a DINO.

[Booberdawg]

51. I beg to differ

I watch Matthews regularly, and he has always been very vocally against the war.

[corarose]

2. Your cat's brighten my day up everytime I see them Catwoman

They remind me of my cat Mia that died a few years back.

Tweety is going off on the love of his life Jr? That's a change.

[zanana]

25. Same here.

I especially love the ones with the little mixed-up faces.

[CatWoman]

31. Awwwwwwwww, Thanks Guys

:hi:

They are quite an unruly, but loveable, bunch :D

[calimary]

44. Whole family of MAJOR cat fanciers here at my house.

It's Cats Against Bush. Actually I think they'd rather pee on one.

[spanone]

5. The domino theory of lying is upon us. I'm amazed that

much of what we're hearing in the mainstream press has been discussed on DU for many months. Aluminum tubes my ass.

[nostamj]

6. i know... it was stunning

what is this? Ted Baxter??? is the president going out there and saying whatever he's told to say? he was all over peggy noonan too!

it's a beautiful thing.

and there was Pat Buchanan:

This isn't about what was in the speech, it's about who put it in the speech! Who forged the documents?

tis dizzying!



The "drip drip drip drip drip" Edition

[calimary]

52. Peggy Noonan was a complete embarrassment.

I remember when she was a virtual Monica for the Reagan Administration. Tonight she was just an overwrought drama queen. "Christopher" (sigh, run hands through hair, grab forhead)! Good Lord!

[neuvocat]

7. One long-shot theory:

is that now that the media companies have what they want (after the FCC ruling) they don't have to really answer to the Bush cabal like they used to. They can appeal to the left-wingers too, knowing that there's a larger audience out there.

[Cush]

12. i've had the same thoughts

'play along until you get what you what'

[mitchum]

19. That makes a lot of sense

(it really does)

[neuvocat]

47. Got that one from Salon.

I thought it was kind of out there but we'll see.

[aquart]

30. Now, that's really funny.

Irony lives.

[qandnotq]

8. when O'Reilly apologizes to America as he promised

if no WMD's were found.

THEN, I will believe "It's the big one"

[Skip Intro]

27. o'reilly should be forced to say "they need more time to look"-

everyday that they aren't found.

Oh, but that was such a lame argument coming from the UN, before the freedom bombs fell.

[Skittles]

9. honestly

I believe it is the soldiers dying every day that is getting on these people's nerves. The fact that THAT is what it took to make these whores start asking questions borders on the criminal.

[NNN0LHI]

14. What Skittles said

[Lydia Leftcoast]

21. PLUS..

Rummy is admitting that he doesn't know how long the troops will be in Iraq or how much it will cost. Meanwhile, anyone with half an eye and ear open knows that the domestic economy is in deep pain.

[CatWoman]

22. See what happens

when the adults are put in charge????

And you guys should have seen Tweety slap John Fund down when he started with "Tenet is a CLINTON appointee".

The WHOLE panel slapped him simultaneously.

[snippy]

32. This is what Poppy said about Tenet in 1999.

"And when it comes to the mission of CIA and the Intelligence Community, George Tenet has it exactly right. Give the President and the policymakers the best possible intelligence product and stay out of the policymaking or policy implementing except as specifically decreed in the law."

[TankLV]

42. I wonder just how much a single human life (death) is worth these days?

Guess it's only pennys if it's not YOUR life, huh rummy & bunkerboy?

[doxielover]

17. 16 little words

Anybody notice that the Republican yakkadoos have lockstepped on their excuse for the lad's "only 16 little words" not mentioning that they impeached a good man for only eight "I did not have sex with that woman."

Oh, but he was a Democrat. There's a difference.

[Skittles]

18. HOWDY FROM TEXAS, DOXIELOVER

WELCOME TO THE DU !!! :D

[CatWoman]

20. And Tweety, of all people,

ridiculed the hell out of it.

Happy Days Are Here Again!!!!!

(well, almost :D )

[On the Road]

24. Welcome, DoxieLover!

:toast:

[barbaraann]

23. I think that's it, too, Skittles.

n/t

[calimary]

45. William Schneider would agree with you, too, Skittles.

I saw him pontificating the other day PRE-Niger Liar-gate saying that it wouldn't be the where-are-the-WMDs that'd start the trouble for bush, but rather the daily death toll from Iraq. A shame that it takes a continuing stream of sacrificed soldiers to do this. What a waste of life. What a waste. What a sin. What a crime.

Of course, everybody in the conventional media just stayed asleep at the switch until the Niger business erupted.

Now, at least, they're finally doing their jobs. Or starting to, anyway.

[teryang]

26. Nothing fails like a military failure

Nothing fails like an ideologue's vision...

" I shall supply a propagandist reason for starting the war. The victor will not be asked, later on, whether he told the truth or not..." Hitler August 22, 1939

[sendero]

29. yes...

... and unfortunately - IMHO this mindset has become an American phenomenon.

A lot of Americans were happy to get the adrenaline rush of a "war", but now are not so happy about the huge bill, in lives and money, that appears to lie ahead without end.

Just like buying stuff on the "no payments 'til January 2005" plan has played its part in wrecking the economy (it isn't just corporate malfeasance or a stock market bubble that has sunk our economy, it is massive, unprecedented consumer debt.)

So yes, I agree with you. Too many Americans have become instant gratification junkies, and this ill-conceived war is another example of it. Now that the true cost is becoming apparent, they are balking. I guess better late than never, but it is a shame so few people in this country could not see the *inevitable* outcome of this sorry war.

[NewYorkerfromMass]

10. Sounds good

sounds reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeal GOOD!

I've been out of touch of ALL media for days now, but this sounds.........
well,
good!

[Coffee Coyote]

11. I need some good news

4 major papers in Western WA, including the least conservative - the Seattle P-I - emphasized that new "democratic council" in Baghdad and buried the SOTU story.

Which made me think: Yep! They will sell this fluff piece about the council in order to "remind" Americans that this war was just and holy and good, so fugeddahbout the SOTU lies!!

Your Sanford pic is KILLING ME!!! :bounce:

[CatWoman]

13. hahahahahahaha -- it's all good!!!

[diplomats]

16. That story was on the front of my paper, too

but SOTU isn't going away, so cheer up!

[sandnsea]

34. OMG - Eugene too!!!

I'm going to email right now and ask them if they've lost their minds.

[RMJ]

36. oh sweetie...

lucky you. They buried the SOTU story. My paper didn't even carry it. My headlines this morning were "Quayle says Bush team on right track" and "Iraqi al-Qaida says it, not Saddam, attacks troops"

Gotta love Indiana....or wake up screaming, one or the other.

:bounce:

[uhhuh]

54. This proves it

You have got to be in deep, deep, shit if the best you can do is Quayle as an endorsement. WOW!!!

[Remark]

15. Bush is fucked when and only when his approval dips below 50%

Until then, 55% approval is just as bad as 92% approval.

Of course we're 15 months out of the election.

[homelandpunk]

48. no, WE are f*cked when his approvals dips below 50%

that is when they decide they need to knock over skyscrapers, and lob missiles (...oh yes it was...) into the Pentagon.

[Starpass]

28. From what I can see, Cat

I've been sort of on a "fuck the news" and hold my first grandchild vacation....but some powerful stuff still managed to get through. I've seen a number of "pissed" military family stories. I've said a thousand times that once they fell off the "America's heroes" for a few months list and where left with shit and they and their families started to piss and moan that Bush was going to start heading for the bottom. They are now getting pissed and thus their bitching is going through the vets clubs, bars and bowling allies of the country and Bush's numbers are heading for the sewer. Soon they will be open to hear more about them thar' AWOl charges and look on him as an arrogant son of the rich. AND, these whores, ever mindful of ratings, are in the business of giving the public what they WANT to hear...fuck the news. And now the principle is turning right against Bush. Tweety is probably (and I've watched for some time and am an old Political Science major) one of the worst fucking "political analysts" around. This fucker blows with the wind. Remember, honey, not long ago he was orgasmic over W's tight jeans. Now he's orgasmic over W's tight noose around the neck that threatens to hang him!!! Tweety is a great barometer.

[CatWoman]

40. As always, Star

you hit the nail right on the head :thumbsup:

Remember, honey, not long ago he was orgasmic over W's tight jeans. Now he's orgasmic over W's tight noose around the neck that threatens to hang him!!! Tweety is a great barometer.

[Snellius]

37. They're all trying to atone for their guilty conscience.

I watched the Tweety and Sylvester Show too. It's true that he opposed the war but Mathews has been goo goo eyed over the Dissembler in Chief since he was nominated. Everybody could see Bush put the B-U-S-H in bullshit every time he opened his mouth. There's nothing knew about this whole Iraq crap that anybody didn't pretty much guess from the beginning, but because the war turned into a mess that we're going to be paying for for years, now those same cable news hounds who were howling for blood are suddenly playing like they were the poor little sheep led astray.

[Melinda]

38. Wait a minute, what happened to Tweety worship of the "Stud"?

He couldn't fall on his knees fast enough after the USS Lincoln stunt!!

"What a stud, President Bush is a STUD!!!!"

Keep yapping Tweety, but WE know what a whoring, pandering piece of shit you really are.

[jayfish]

39. If You Think That's Twilight Zone...

you should have heard Alan Combs (That’s right, I said it) Friday night. He was on fire. He went down the list of the top ten lies from Bushcos' war run up. Quite surreal an no punches were pulled. Hell I didn't even know he was on in this Clear Channel city. Maybe they are making good on their promise to air more liberal leaning personalities. I may even give him a listen tonight.

Jay

[CatWoman]

41. AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

*thud*

sound of CatWoman hitting the ground as she fainted

:D

:D

[DagmarK]

43. Sheesh, Jayfish, what's liberal (or conserv) about the TRUTH?

this has nothing to do with making their shows more "balanced" between the libs and conservs.

[jayfish]

46. Agree 100%.

I was just commenting on the radio market in my city. Up until that show the last time I heard a liberal, progressive, or truthful radio personality in this market was when Larry King was still on the airwaves.

Jay

[Joe the Revelator]

53. His Radio Show

is carried here in Norfolk VA. Its hit and miss. The man just can't debate. He gets slapped down by conserv callers once an hour. Al Franken needs a show badly.

[ibegurpard]

49. Until I see these fuckers in prison stripes

I'm not holding my breath. Been disappointed too many times.
