Aaron McGruder is on CSPAN
Tavis Smiley hosts

Cornel West (bringing up Chomsky, Gore Vidal, Michael Moore, Arundati Roy)

First thing I heard was that the mainstream media lies, you can't believe anything they say

AM: take comfort in the fact that a lot of the lies they're telling you are not that difficult to root out.

AM: first thing we have to do is get the NAZIS out of the whitehouse, in answer to a question about how people can take back the media

this is good........exactly what the fricking spineless, Achordate party should be talking about.

McGruder said Gore won the election, but is not president because he was NOT willing to do what it took, but the republicans WERE.

says people have to be willing to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty

1. mc gruder just said we're no longer living in a democracy
Tavis smiley was taken aback by that, and said, half-kiddingly, that he expected to get lots of phone calls, emails, faxes, on that

BTW, anybody see this?



all last week Doonesbury was really sticking it to the thief....didn't see any commentary about it

2. yes watched it earlier today
did you catch that Mc Gruder came back at Tavis that it's what he said too.

Also I liked Mc Gruder's comment about his job is to unplug as many people as he can.
