OLBERMANN Countdown SPECIAL on tonight! Be there, aloha!
from the Countdown Newsletter:


A Countdown exclusive...
Inside the book "Tempting Faith"...
By the former Special Assistant to the President...
The number two man in Bush's Office Of Faith-Based Initiatives...
Who writes how Karl Rove's office referred to evangelical leaders as quote "the nuts"...
How the White House hugged them...
Then described them as "ridiculous" "out of control" and "goofy"...

Did the Bush administration take the religious right for a ride?

Countdown w/ Keith Olbermann broadcasts LIVE at 8 pm et, and the count is never complete without you. Join us.

3. I find myself agreeing with Rove,
they are nuts.goofy/ridiculous and several other adjective. But as i look around at the condition of my country, i'm not sure who took who for a ride.

9. From Wiki:
>
>
Private communications revealed as a result of the Congressional enquiry into Scanlon and Abramoff's consulting business demonstrate a contemptuous attitude to both clients and supporters. Indian Clients were referred to as "troglodytes" and "monkeys", Christian Conservatives are considered gullible "wackos" who can be manipulated to vote on demand:

"The wackos get their information through the Christian right, Christian radio, mail, the internet and telephone trees ... Simply put, we want to bring out the wackos to vote against something and make sure the rest of the public lets the whole thing slip past them."

10. My Secretary Is One Of Those Nutcases
A religious FREAK, who thinks that King george is the 2nd coming. She walked into my office while Randi was playing a soundbyte of him from this morning, and she perked up....."Is that the president?" With a big enthusiastic smile.

She's DEFINITELY in the 23% of IDIOTS who will follow him, even if he were to rape a child on live tv, she would blame it on the Liberal Media.
