C-SPAN caller: "Obama is coming down here to be with his fellow baboons".
It was a caller on Washington Journal this morning about 9:30 or so. They had a couple of New Orleans guests on discussing Katrina and taking calls.

3. They cut him off and then said language like that would not be tolerated
or something to that effect. I cut the shit off after that. That show is slowly becoming unwatchable.

5. Thanks. This reminds me of the whacko rethugs; they say
something completely outrageous, then say they were kidding. So cspan lets the message out first, then cuts the idiots off.

I don't blame you for not watching. I stopped, too.

2. I'm surprised this isn't standard language on RNC press releases

I bet a lot of congressional republicans are just itching to say that out loud.

4. I'm shocked that they would say that!
Obama doesn't like hanging around with Republicans. :-)

6. I love it when they do that! He's just saying what most of the
teabaggers really think. Most of them have learned to only talk like that amongst themselves. A guy like that just shows what most of them are about.

8. The had a live call in show and the show wasn't on a 7-10 second delay to
stop things like that? Why not?

11. They've never had one
It's a goldmine for pranksters and the Baba Booey crowd.

9. "He called me a babboon, think's I'm his wife!"


I think CSPAN should just give them a forum. Seriously. It would splinter their side faster than you can say "Paul Bunyan".

10. CSPAN is unfiltered stupidity
It's refreshing in a way. Without a Limpballs or a BecKKK to shepherd them through their talking points, the wingnuts reveal their true nature.

12. There you go...the one and only reason the republicans are
urging all the hate and violence. We have a black Democratic president and they think they are they ones who should be in charge. The are the worst bunch of racist going.

14. I miss Brian Lamm...He was subtle yet brilliant in dealing with idiots
He let them talk as long as it wasn't obscene. Then he'd ask them why they felt that way or something to draw out thier true colors. Worked like a charm & the idiots always hang themselves when given rope.

I'm a big fan of WJ...

15. I'm glad the calls aren't monitored
That way, everyone can see what these people are made of and the real reason for their hatred.

I hope millions listened and spread the word...
