This happened at a VA hospital of all places...the tide continues to turn
Edited on Wed Mar-22-06 01:41 PM by cynatnite
Just got home from taking hubby to the VA hospital. While in the waiting room, they had Faux news playing...which is the norm.

They brought on a RW talking mouth who spewed the typical talking points. Iraq is where the terrorists that attacked us are. :eyes: The dem fired back pretty well and then she went on about cut and run, bashed dems as enabling the terrorists and all that. I got pissed and had to leave for a few minutes.

After I came back, Faux news reported a coyote in Central Park and a few other meaningless pieces. They got back on bush again, brought a repuke and a dem to debate. The repuke slammed 'main stream media' for doing a bad job and gushed on about how great it is going there. He threw out a few other lies.

The dem guest on Faux said, I really wish I knew who she was, said 'with all due respect, you and george bush are smoking crack'. :rofl:

Most everyone in the waiting room, about half a dozen people, busted out laughing. It was fantastic!

If anyone saw this, please let me know her name. I wanna fire off an email to her in support.

1. OMG I just burst out laughing right now
That is absolutely hilarious. :rofl:

As a sidenote, my dad had to change where he got his car serviced because they always had Faux on in the waiting room, really loud, on this gigantic TV and he couldn't stand it. :D

3. Was that at Mountain Home?
(I refuse to call it by its updated name.) If so, I know some people who work there, and maybe one of them could find out who made the comment. I'd like to send her an email of support too!

4. Yep, it was.
None of the staff was around. This was a waiting room. I thought perhaps someone at DU saw it and knew who it was.

5. If she was an employee,
I could probably find out who she was. If not, it's doubtful.

7. Oh, no, this was a guest on Faux news.
I should have clarified it on my post.

6. People connected to the military often know the real score
better than the general public.

They know how Bush and cronies woefully have underfunded the VA medical system. They know how Bush and cronies could not care less about veterans or active duty.
