Tweety going nuts on the Cheney story.

[joeunderdog]

"It keeps changing by the minute" from how it was reported, to who reported it, to what really happened, to how bad the victim was hurt, to why the local law enforcement didn't get an opportunity to do a breathalyzer. Wow. Why didn't he call the Prez? Why did Dickie get preferential treatment?

He's really on this.

[slor]

1. He should be...

We all should be.

[thebigidea]

2. he never liked Cheney, probably thinks he misled poor noble Dubya

[txindy]

26. That's my take, too. Tweety is sticking up for Junior.

Wonderful. :eyes:

[blm]

3. Why is he shocked? The WH has done this exact same routine on EVERYTHING

and the media has been letting them get away with it. Why would they think this time would be any different?

[rodeodance]

4. my question--Why have we NOT seen the official Sheriff's report?

[joeunderdog]

10. Tom Defrank said they were notified immediately

but didn't show til the next morning.

"Yup. Secret Service just called. Something about the Vice President of the United States shooting a man in the face, neck and torso, sorta near all those vital organs. Let's get us some sleep and get down there after breakfast tomorrow..."

[rodeodance]

16. smoking gun has a Press Release--not the offical 'police report"

[Klukie]

5. Yeah

He is definately not with the * regime on this one.

[TomInTib]

6. Yep... but I wish Blankely would go hunting with Cheney...

I cannot stand that smarmy ass.

[AntiFascist]

11. .

:rofl:

eating their own!!!!!!!

[Norquist Nemesis]

19. His "performance" was galling

I wonder what kind of a "frenzy" he went into about Whitewater, C/L, Travelgate, etc.,etc.,etc.

[TomInTib]

28. He was bonkers. Idiot would shout down McGlaughlin. nt

[johnnie]

7. There comes a point..

..when you have to stop kissing ass and blindly following. It it almost impossible to think that there are still people out there that are not asking questions about these fuckers.

Sometimes you have to swallow your pride and admit you are getting screwed.

[alstephenson]

8. Tweety on steroids!

Tweety must be eating his Wheaties lately - he has been relentless on the Cheney shooting and the CIA leak case! Go, Tweety, go!!!

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

9. Welcome to DU, alstephenson.

[katty]

12. birdshot 30 yrds away?! that much damage?hmmmm

[dogday]

13. It's a shame they didn't ask the hard questions before

we barged into Iraq... Might of made a difference in public opinion...

[sandnsea]

14. His other brother is right wing gun nut

Matthews has the Republican brother running for Lt Gov; but he's also got one that's right wing working class hunter gun guy. I'm betting he's the one who knew this story was bullshit from the gate and that's why Tweety has been able to nail this story down. There's the facts, which haven't changed one bit, and then the spin, which changes hour to hour.

[Pirate Smile]

15. Typical - two RW newsmen plus one objective reporter = balance?

Have Lawrence O'Donnell on, Tweety? Give at least one slot to the other side.

[maxsolomon]

17. if it bleeds it leads

the only thing the media whores like more than gun violence is a good solid intern blowjob.

to release.

[Radical Activist]

18. Change your story about killing thousands in Iraq, no biggie

Lie about one guy in a hunting accident and all of a sudden its a big deal. What the fuck is wrong with these people?

[Ksec]

20. I believe Tweetys abusing prescription pain killers

Hes scatterbrained.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

21. Tweety is just doing what most repugs do in an election year...

He is heading for the "middle" ground in a pretense of being "fair and objective." Fair and objective my ass, Tweety's brother just won the repug nomination for some elected office (too lazy to even care to look up the exact position - think it is as lt. governor) so he is doing his part to help his brother out trying to appear moderate. If he is moderate than Bro must be, too. Vote for Matthews.

He will never be a journalist but he will play one on TV for enough money. Right now he is doing the Teaberry Shuffle on the viewers' asses pretending to be hard hitting and "journalistilly"-like in the run up to November.

I wouldn't trust Tweety to give the correct and unbiased report on what he had for breakfast each morning. Besides that he is stupid, fawning, cloying and extremely annoying. Other than that...

[yardwork]

23. Great rant on Tweety!

[AntiFascist]

25. Notice how they head for middle ground on...

relatively safe stories. No mention of Plame though! Po Tweety, just not bwave enuff.

[FreedomAngel82]

22. He'll flip tomorrow

[meisje]

24. turning in to a regular tweety love fest around here

:puke:

[txindy]

27. Oh, no. Ick.

Tweety has ulterior motives. He's attacking Darth in order to protect Junior. Even yesterday, he asked Myers and Gergen if Darth "hates" Junior because he left him in the dark about this for a period of time. A decidedly odd question coming from the Tweeter. He's acting as Junior's self-appointed surrogate, attacking Darth to protect Junior's 'honor'. :eyes:

[LittleClarkie]

29. I wonder which personality this is now

Sybil.
