10. I know! Sean Penn is so right on -- it was like having someone from DU on the TV!
Edited on Sun May-06-07 03:30 PM by tblue
And Ford showed why he's not ready to be in the Senate. No guts, no peripheral vision, no deep conviction and commitment to the effing Constitution.

:bounce: :kick:

you are right, Obama acts like one of the scardy Dem's
It's impossible to get a great answer from
obama, I love Kucinich, but I'm wise enough to know his chances.

Edward's is my guy.

6. Boy you almost had me with you until your last sentence.
You might be a little hard on Obama, I love Kucinich as well....but EDWARDS???? The guy that only (served?) 1 term as Senator WHILE he was campaigning for POTUS? The guy who....#1 voted in support of the IWR, #2 co sponsored the bill #3 voted for the Patriot Act #4 took years to admit that voting for the IWR was a mistake and #5 now voted NO on the Durbin and Levin amendments??????????? #6 Edwards did not champion or sponsor any poverty legislation during the 6 years he was a Senator, #7 he co-sponsored a massive increase in H-1b Visas...

I look at what Edwards HAS DONE, NOT what he SAYS he is going to do.


It makes me sick that so many Dems are willing to let an apology (coming years after the horrible error in judgement) excuse Edwards, it reminds me of the Repugs supporting Bush Bush supporters are also mesmerized by what Bush says and Bush supports don't seem to pay attention to what he has done.....otherwise known as his record.

I knew better about Iraq, why didn't Edwards? - -

How do you overlook this horrible error in judgment that has resulted in thousands and thousands of lives ruined and lost? Isn't that what the POTUS'S job is all about? Making important judgements based on sound knowledge and experience and isn't that why Edwards screwed up so badly, he didn't use sound judgement and he didn't have enough experience - even when Gore, Byrd, Clark (Democratic Party Leaders)and Kucinich and Durbin and Finegold all spoke out against going into Iraq (before Edward voted)? Edwards sided with the Republican President and against many Party leaders. How could anybody support Edwards just because he SAYS some of the right things and says it with style. If he were going for an Academy Award I'd say give it to him hands down. But he isn't, he is going for a job in which he has no credible record or experience. Remember what he says he can easily get from from polls, so that he knows what will fly and what won't.

I wish people would wake up, you love Kucinch, support him for God's sake.

11. Penn is well informed, articulate and passionate
Shandling, nice guy that he may be, rambled on. Ford, he sounded like a sleazeball politician. He said a bunch of stuff, but didn't actually say anything. No substance. Penn just jumped in and hit it out of the park.

16. Ugh. No wonder Harold Ford lost.
What a wishy-washy equivocating bush administration apologist. What a weenie, trying to sound like a reasonable man and avoiding the harsh language necessary for this situation that bush and the neocons have forced upon the world.

I've always admired Sean Penn as an actor, but now I respect him for his ability to speak what must be said, without regard to how it will affect his career now or in the future. Listen to that audience cheer! :thumbsup:

21. Yeah, Ford is trying to play the middle... but what else is a DLCer to do?
The Dems all need to eat a dose of Gravel, triply so for DLCers.

18. MORE REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER DISCUSSION
SEAN PENN FLATLY STATES: “BUSH SHOULD BE IN JAIL”
I posted the best of the discussion by Rep. Harold Ford Jr., Garry Shandling and Sean Penn from Real Time With Bill Maher.
The idea of a “War On Terrorism”, WMD’s, the vote by Congress to give authorization to the President to use force against Iraq and the millions of young Muslim men who hate America are all discussed.
Enjoy DUers!

22. War Criminals
Sorry, I don't have enough posts to rec. or I would ...

It isn't acceptable to say it in the United States but I think the administration is CLEARLY guilty of major war crimes and should be on trial just like there ex-buddy Saddam.

27. Jail is almost too good for these people
can't we get them on a Cool Hand Luke road chain gang - first time any of them would have to work, that alone might be worth it.
