Frank Luntz, Christopher Hitchens, and Ann Coulter on Hardball
Besides the fact that they are an odd coterie of far left and far right Dem bashers where's the balance.

8. Heh...Jab at the Bushies?
Edited on Wed Jul-30-03 06:19 PM by Cush
This Admin has a long history of playing footsies with the Saudi's (I think that's a direct jab at the Bush Family)

Chris just mentioned Pop's ties to the Saudi's.

12. Yep..
Bush is screwed on this issue and it just came up...
I've actually started reading the 9/11 report and they do leave out a lot of names, places, and entire paragraphs at times. Found an interesting part about a CIA Covert ops plan months before 9/11 being thought out but major sections are missing. (going after OBL)

10. NBC Poll : most of the country identifies themselves as DEM
40% Dem
37% GOP

Matthews just said it.

So as much as rightwing media wants to speak of the coming GOP "governing majority", nothing could be farther from the truth. The country is pretty much split down the middle, with the Dems having a slight majority, but the electoral system (especially the electoral college system in presidential elections) doesn't favor that majority. The electoral system is setup in a way that favors "red" states.

A recent poll also reveals that Norah Odonnel is gorgeous.

13. It Was Close To The DLC Results
Most polls show the two major parties at rough parity with the Dems having a slight edge.

We don't have the commanding lead in registration or identification we had twenty or thirty years ago.

We have work to do.

14. Frank Luntz
is a Republican consultant for the California Recall. He's the opne that said they needed to "Kill Davis softly." He and Annthrax deserve each other.

Is Hitchens hammered?

43. Snitchens wasn't hammered tonight. He was very sober in fact...
He and Annthrax were like prize fighters sizing each one up for the rumble.

Annthrax was a little less obnoxious because she and Snitch don't get along. And she knows she's no match for him. His tongue is even sharper than hers.

Snitch actually wasn't that bad tonight. He didn't come across as a neo con. He was critical about the 9/11 - Saudi connection.

Annthrax had on her knee pads for bush as always. Tweety asked what was bush hiding about his relationship with the Saudis in the 9/11 report. And shouldn't we know what he hiding. Ann of course has total confidence in Heir chimp, and is so trusting of him that she has no desire to know what's in those redacted pages.

20. AND.... a guy from CATO
the sad thing is that to the casual viewer, they do not KNOW the agenda of these right wing freaks..:(..

If the whole show...and EVERY show is packed with them, the people watching/listening believe what they are told.. They never hear much from any opposing viewpoint..:(

22. Wow! Hitchens is totally blotto!
I didn't think it was possible to get that drunk and still speak clearly, or in his case, sorta clearly in an Ozzy Osbourne sort of way.

I also like how Mann Coulter is bitter towards the Supreme Court. Funny how things change.

Who he Bush covering for, his family or Cheney and his folks?

Did Hitchens just say they didn't want an Independent COmmission because it could hurt his family? (Sorry, but I can't understand him)

Matthews To Ann: So in your in bed with the PRes with on every issue?

28. But it should also be noted...
That as he was tossing it to commercial, he used the words Bush and everybody likes him in the same sentence.
Ridiculous!

And Tweety has said he thinks Shrub is a "Ted Baxter" kind of guy.

36. That's true. I had forgotten about that great line.
But then again Ted Baxter never murdered 4,000 plus Iraqi citizens.

38. Seems to me this could have been used as a major campaign issue
in 2004. It could have turned the "Bush is the only one who can protect us" arguement on its ass.

I mean, Luntz, Hitchens, and Coulter? When are the conservatives going to get equal time?

ok, sarcasm off now.

Carry on.
