I find it hard to believe Feingold did this
Edited on Tue Mar-14-06 04:01 PM by quinnox
Unitl I see an official confirmation then I have doubt this story is true.

edit: Of course I'm referring to the story Feingold attacked Dems on Fox news.

14. The link: Feingold Accuses Senate Democrats of “Cowering” To Bush
http://thinkprogress.org/2006/03/14/feingold-accuses/

"Sen. Feingold said the following to Fox News’ Trish Turner:

I’m amazed at Democrats, cowering with this president’s numbers so low. The administration just has to raise the specter of the war and the Democrats run and hide. … Too many Democrats are going to do the same thing they did in 2000 and 2004. In the face of this, they’ll say we’d better just focus on domestic issues. … cower to the argument, that whatever you do, if you question the administration, you’re helping the terrorists."

20. You are smoking something right? So when a Dem goes on Faux
and lambastes other Dems it is o.k. But when Dems like Clark go on Faux to give our side not even to lambaste other Dems it isn't o.k.?

You're joking right?

WTF is up with DU?

22. My husband is a dem and he watches
Edited on Tue Mar-14-06 04:43 PM by Mojorabbit
fox news at 7 every night then keith at 8. My parents who were republicans till this last election when they converted do the same. There are a lot of people looking for a news program at the dinner hour and the other two cable channels have talking heads at seven. I do believe there are a lot of moderates who watch fox who could be converted. A few here and a few there and it adds up. But that is just my opinion. I also have no problem with Clark going on fox.

24. Then my bad. I apologise. Most people here hate Clark on Faux
when he goes to give our side. Now they love it when a Dem goes on and bad mouths other Dems. That I didn't get.

Did you see the post on why Delay the Censure vote is the best course of action?

If they weren't acting like cowards they wouldn't be treated like cowards.

25. So do you think Clark should go on Faux or not? DUers seem to
hate Clark on Faux but love Feingold going on and badmouthing the Dems.

Seems to be a double-standard to me.

blast his own party.

I think you missed the point.

31. He said what just about everybody here is saying

and I agree with him. If they don't want to be publicly labeled as wimps then they need to stop slobbing all over bush's knob.

32. But do you go to your enemies camp to diss your own army?
That is the point.

Us saying it here no biggie. him going on Faux is proving the point to the ool-aid drinkers. Deep down Faux is tickled pink and they are loving every moment of it.

IF they can paint us as disorganized and fractured then we lose 2k6. If u don't get that then I can't help ya.

37. He did not say it on FOX, he said it to "journalists", meaning a crowd of
them. It is just the FOX reporter who is referenced in the story.

Don't read too far into it ;)

26. This comes from a story that is posted at Rawstory.com
Edited on Tue Mar-14-06 04:52 PM by dogday
<snip>
Feingold, defending his censure plan today on Fox News, said: “I’m amazed at Democrats, cowering with this president’s numbers so low. The administration just has to raise the specter of the war and the Democrats run and hide…too many Democrats are going to do the same thing they did in 2000 and 2004. In the face of this, they’ll say we’d better just focus on domestic issues… cower to the argument, that whatever you do, if you question administration, you’re helping the terrorists.”
</snip>

Here is the link:
http://rawstory.com/news/2006/Democrats_slash_Feingold_move_on_censure_0314.html



There are no details as to when they say he did this, what date and time and whose show it was so I don't know until I get confirmation....
