Bill Moyer Ripping Grover Norquist a New One
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 08:46 PM by Stephanie

He is telling Grover to face facts - the government and the deficit have both ballooned under Bush. Grover says this is because the Democrats in Congress were not cooperative enough.

5. That is a LIE.
NOTHING the Republicans in Congress tried to pass would have reduced the deficit. THEY control both the House and Senate. THe coming economic crisis is THEIR fault. Why doesn't he just strangle Norquist? PLEASE, Bill! DO IT NOW!

13. I LOVE this idea, shrink Norquist until he's small enough to drag him into
the bathtub and drown him!!!!!!

(Norquist's plan for the federal government.)

I picture him in a dungeon...starving him...like in Silence of the Lambs....

hee hee

6. Grover shouldn't even have a platform to spew - he's delusional
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 08:49 PM by vidali
of course he is listened to in DC so I guess Moyers has to give him space. Still. He puts the repug in repugnant.

17. Every republican failure will always be our fault.
They could have a filibuster-proof majority in Congress and they'd still blame their fuck ups on us. I hate them. All of them.

20. Just saw it
Grover Norquist, and anyone like him, need to be stopped. I don't know how. But he needs to be stopped.

Most of this country has no idea what's going to happen. They either don't care about politics, vote for these people when they absolutely no business voting for them, or are white/rich/male and have every reason to vote for this movement.

This is a Theocratic Fascist takeover. You cannot call it anything else. They own the major airwaves. They own the votes. They do, or will soon, own you in every way.

It's not about democracy anymore. It's a takeover. They want everything. They want nothing but power.

They have to be stopped. Because they will not stop because of "democracy", whatever the hell that is, if it really ever existed at all.

23. For each
there is an ending. Some among us wish not to believe it, but it will come to pass.

The only sure things are death and taxes.

Prove me wrong.
