Tweety just said that "the grownups" will decide CT, not "pajama-udins".

[Skidmore]

He's clearly cheering Lieberman on and really trashing the grassroots.

[LynzM]

1. Oh yeah.

Hey, wait. I thought you had to be a "grown-up" to be allowed to register to vote. :crazy:

God forbid that people actually get involved in politics in large groups, and organize in a way that is person-to-person. :wtf:

[Skidmore]

4. Sounds like Tweety was borrowing from *'s 2000 campaign BS.

[ananda]

2. The media is definitely campaigning for..

.. the Ho-mentum Team.

Ugghh.

[underpants]

5. They are campaigning for their relevance

which is clearly evaporating away

[long_green]

28. They are campaigning for the fiasco of a war that enriches

their bosses.

[Bill McBlueState]

3. pajama-udins?

I'm not getting that word... Where does the "udin" part come from?

[underpants]

6. I would think he meant something to do with "pundits"

Either Mathews misspoke or the OP mistyped it.

OR maybe I don't know what the hell I am talking about.

[Catchawave]

11. I thought I heard "pajama-houdinis"

maybe not. Somebody must have heard it :D

On edit: can't hear, can't type this a.m.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

30. It's a play on the term "Mujahaden"

[Skidmore]

7. He said he'd claim credit but didn't coin it after the news reader gushed

about it as a "great word." Apparently, it means bloggers, and must be a derisive term for bloggers among some of the media. It would be great if we have any media people on board to explain how widely it is used and the nuances of meaning for us if other than my impressions based on Matthews'use of it.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

15. I'm not sure I'm even getting the "pajama" part...

big, bad radical bloggers at home in their PJs? Hopefully, the pajama crowd and "kids" and "lesbians in flannel shirts" left over from the Dean campaign will bring about victory for Lamont.

23. Pajama media is the RW guys who run Little Green Footballs.

Got their 15 minutes for the Rather and the allegedly forged documents fiasco.

[Warren Stupidity]

34. We are going to plague every rw dino hack fool

The Pajama Brigades are out their mom's basements and on the march.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

25. It was a take-off on Mujahedeens - Pajamahedeens.

[rubberducky]

8. I just couldn`t believe how bad he trashed..

the bloggers!!!!!!!! "the radical left" "take off the pajamas and join the grown up`s" Who the hell does he think he is??

[graywarrior]

9. Tweety thinks he has the power to pick winners

He's already convinced the Hillary will be the presidential candidate.

[calico1]

10. I'm a grownup and don't blog.

And I voted for Ned. Get a clue, Chris.

[Gold Metal Flake]

12. "the grownups" is code.

"the grownups" is what *co called called itself in 2000. Therefore, if Tweety is to be believed, and I have learned over time that when the Beltway Insiders speak in this way that they should be believed, it means that the standard selection set of Republican election fraud efforts will be undertaken. Watch for fraud.

[WilliamPitt]

13. "Pajamaheddin"

A play on "Mujeheddin," i.e. the Afghan fighters that became the Taliban.

His point was that bloggers and online activists can't win an election until they step away from the keyboards, get dressed, and go out to vote.

The phrase was crass, but I agree entirely with the sentiment.

[Catchawave]

16. I was close, thanks for clarifying :)

:hi:

I did agree with him that a Lamont win will give the Dems a clear message, whereas a Lieberman win will keep our message fuzzy and confusing.

[AlGore-08.com]

20. I don't think the implication is that we could be effective if we grew up

I think the implication is that we can never be effective. The implication is that we are a bunch of Taliban-wannabes, who aren't remotely scary and can never be scary because we're such pathetic loosers.

[Crankie Avalon]

14. The guy who gushed over the sight of Bush in his flight-footies...

...is making distinctions between "the grownups" and whatever that other term he used was???

[Kurovski]

33. Tweety has also been atwitter over George's blue jeans and his

brush-clearing abilities.

The little lovebird sings about the fit of Bush's jeans on the TEEVEE, and we're a bunch of flakes?

[chill_wind]

17. "Grownups will decide", eh? We'll have to keep that phrase in mind

when the grownups in CT have had their say at the end of this day.
When the voters choose Ned. Let's hear him trash to grownups of CT then.

[UTUSN]

18. But-but, doesn't Tweety claim to be AGAINST the Iraq Attack??/ n/t

[Theres-a]

19. I'm childlike. And I voted.

The grownups can kiss my big fat ass.

[Theres-a]

21. PS I only voted because of DU

I had to REGISTER,that's right REGISTER to vote. I came here almost 2 years ago,and this past June was moved to register to vote.So those grownup newsliars need to buy a clue.

Apparently he has never tried to plant a garden.Grassroots are tough,and spread far and wide.And they don't need much encouragement either.Just a little sun and rain here and there.

[Theres-a]

24. Kids: 1 Grownups: 0

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,Tweety ,you bastid!

[Cha]

27. Thanks for all

that!

[leesa]

22. So are these the "grown-ups" that are likely committing voter fraud as we

speak? We've seen those "grown-ups" you rave about in the White House for years now. We have a different definition.

[Warren Stupidity]

26. Well I already spoke to that point.

29. Tweety's got a thing about Hillary. "She's gotta denounce the war".

Yes, and only then Bush will pull the troops out.:eyes:

[Rex]

31. Tweety is a 3 year old.

Guess what Tweety...the grownups did decide so STFU and go get your BFEE paycheck. I hope your days are numbered in the news business. You crank for Bush asshole you.

[Kurovski]

32. Tweety is a turd-tootler.

I'm begining to think he's insane.
