[WilliamPitt]

1. Jesus

Was this Texas? I don't even remember...

[trumad]

2. Jesus Will... Either Bush is going to kill us

or that second hand smoke from your Cig... Get a patch dude..;-)

[WilliamPitt]

3. *koff*

[Q]

5. The cigs have to go...it's a distraction...

...to your audience.

- But the 'speech' was great...breaking down the lies of the Bushies...step by step.

- And DON'T DRINK A BEER while talking. Much too casual. This is okay in someone's living room...but...

[Gato Moteado]

6. yeah, half the restaurant has been diagnosed with emphasema already...

...from that evening.

[WilliamPitt]

7. ...because they were smoking, too

Get off my back

[Q]

9. Is this your Lenny Bruce routine?

- Seriously though...you covered a lot of very good information that people NEED to know.

[IrateCitizen]

17. Not Lenny Bruce -- a left-wing Morton Downey, Jr.

All we need to hear now is a tirade from Will about those "Pablum-puking conservatives"!

:evilgrin:

[Gato Moteado]

11. ah, we rib ya because we love ya!

[GOPisEvil]

21. Think about the awesome B&B room...

...it'll come back to you. ;-)

[Rollins]

10. interesting

Very agressive talk. Its great to get this information out into public conscousness.

Be safe.

[brainshrub]

12. He's a good speaker n/t

[Gato Moteado]

13. he rocked the place....

....houston and kpft were so glad to have him. believe it or not, even here in the belly of the beast (houston) will had a following here before he even came.

[GOPisEvil]

14. I have GOT to get a copy of this!!!!

:bounce:

That was an AWESOME night! :thumbsup:

[GOPisEvil]

15. Austinites...can any of you tape this for me?

Isn't Democracy Now on at 6:00pm here locally? I'll be tied up then, and won't be home before then. Can anyone tape this for me?

Please? There's :beer: in it...:D

[latebloomer]

16. Damn!

WBAI doesn'r run the first hour.

[latebloomer]

18. Hey!

They're airing it now!! Cool!!

[Khephra]

19. Yawn.....

You awake yet, Will? I'm not.

:evilgrin:

CAFFEINE! My Kingdom for some CAFFEINE!

[Bozita]

20. WBAI just started running it --- ohboy!

sounds GOOD.

[progressivejazz]

22. Great job, Will!

Keep doing it just like you're doing it. Sip that beer. Smoke that Marlboro. This country needs more angry white males on our side to be visible. Your smoking and drinking a beer makes a lot of ordinary folks identify with you. These are the people our side needs to get out to vote. Keep it up. Fire them up. Get them angry enough to vote.

Great job.

[WilliamPitt]

24. Heh...I'm having trouble telling if your serious

:)

It's an odd day when angry white men get cheered on DU.

:)

[progressivejazz]

25. But that's the point.

I too am an angry white man. But I'm angry at the same people and actions you are. What we've needed for years is to redirect the anger of those traditionally thought of as angry white men away from minorities and in the direction of the robber barons. And who better to do this job than somebody who isn't afraid to tip a Bud and fire up a Marlboro in public, somebody who knows the score, somebody who tells the truth eloquently and simply. That's you, Will. You're a man of the people, like it or not.

And by the way, I also tip the occasional Bud, but I smoke Newports. However, I lack your eloquence. (And I envy you your youth, dammit)

Please keep doing exactly what you've been doing.

30. This Houstonian was sorry to miss it live..

No child care for the evening or I would have been there. So I was thrilled to see it on DemNow! this morning. DN rocks; KPFT rocks; and it is REALLY cool that you are helping them with their fundraising too via books & videos.

Progressivejazz was right.

[Room101]

29. I heard it on KPFA radio

Amy said we are going to spend the hour with William Rivers Pitt, a smile from me followed. You did great, it came across as a casual atmosphere with an informative angry narrative. You are doing us proud! :toast:

[HootieMcBoob]

23. listening right now on WBAI

Way to go! I'll definitely be on hand to make sure they rue the day they chose NYC for their convention.
