Now Tweedy is blaring the the public can't get enought of REv. Wright...
He says their ratings prove it.

They are pandering to the lowest common denominator...

Can I pound my head against the wall?

2. STOP WATCHING AND STOP POSTING ABOUT IT
By giving them attention, by asking others to pay attention to them, we are all feeding the beast.

Sorry for the yelling but the best thing we can do is turn them OFF.

3. In his dreams, maybe ...
I wonder how his ratings stack up against "Countdown". What's on opposite
"Spitballs"? People who are political junkies may have no other choice
but to endure his stupid show ... most of the time throwing crap at their
TVs screaming "ENOUGH OF REV. WRIGHT!"

4. Don't pound your head against the wall. If you can use Tweety's, that's fine.
Remember, this is the guy who wet his pants with joy when he saw W. on the deck of that carrier five years ago = "Mission Accomplished."

Tweety is a nutcase.

14. Turn it off. It's much easier on your head and your wall.
And your BP will drop almost immediately. :-)

15. There is nothing that can be done but sit and wait it out like the
swift-boat episode 4 years ago... If they are raising so much stink now, it makes me wonder what they have for November...

be afraid, be very afraid of the media...

16. Don't care about Wright but I DO care
