2. I agree with that, but, I also KNOW that if Obama doesn't start really fighting
back, we will lose this election. I am so tired of Dems. not fighting back and turning the other cheek. It doesn't work! How many times do they have to lose because they won't fight back.
That kind of attitude pisses me off more than the corporate shills.

I have said it before and I'll keep saying it - You can't hold hands with the rethugs!

3. Cenk said he'd like to see Obama and McCain hook up for several town hall meetings,
saying Obama would blow McCain out the door in any such forum. Agreed.

But, remember the Kerry-Bush debates. Anybody with a brain cell could tell you that Kerry was head and shoulders better than Bush. Remember these Bushisms?

It's hard work! (several times)

You forgot Poland!

Bush sounded incoherent, couldn't address any question, and had a hard time saying a complete sentence. But remember all of the media's spin? The debates were declared a draw, or Bush may haved edged Kerry.

I kept asking what these presstitutes were smoking and/or drinking.

That's why I don't think a lot of McCain-Obama debates or town hall meetings would work to Obama's advantage. The media gerbils will have already made their minds up that McCain held his ground or edged Obama before the first question was asked.

5. Oh god yes I remember that horse shit
After watching the debates between Gore and Bu$h, all of them talking about Gore SIGHING?? What the FUCK?

And, as you say, with the Kerry debates as well...

I was overwhelmed with disgust. Your term 'presstitutes' is apt.

We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM. We need MEDIA REFORM.

14. This is what we need to do
Edited on Sat Aug-09-08 12:32 PM by Joe Bacon
How do you stop David Broder from endlessly whoring for the Republicans along with the fellow Pre$$titutes at the Whoreshington Post?

Here's how:

1) Amend the Communications Act of 1996 to:
2) Reinstate the Fairness Doctrine
3) Force divestiture
4) No entity may own more than a total of 5 media properties in the US. Period (Media properties include: newspapers, wire services, magazines, TV stations, Radio stations, Broadcasting companies, computer companies, motion picture studios, talent agencies, software companies, entertainment production companies, cable systems, web pages, advertising agencies, publishing companies, stores that sell books, DVDs, music, broad and narrowband companies, web hosting sites and webpages)
5) Media companies may not have interlocking directorates. Screwpert Murdoch has NO business sitting on the board of directors of the ASSociated Press!
6) No media company may own more than one media property in a market
7) Advertisers are held responsible for the content of media they purchase advertising for
8) Newspapers, and broadcasting companies are responsible for their content
9) All Media companies are taxed at 25% of their gross income, the funds derived will finance real public broadcasting with no corporate ties.
10) The airwaves belong to the American people, not to Murdoch, GE, Redstone or any other billionaire.
11) Enact a Three Strikes Rule in the media. Three lies and you're out. Freedom of Speech does NOT include the freedom to lie!

It wont take a week for Broder to get three strikes.

19. as of February next year
the American people will not be owning any airwaves, since the signal will be going digital.

That should never have been allowed to pass.

There should be no foreign ownership of any American media. It's no different that foreign ownership of the ports into this country.

17. That's why I specifically wrote "DB" to get people to watch. The overall message transcends the name
I knew that David Broder wasn't necessarily a household name, and that if people read "David Broder" they might not bother watching the video (a mistake as you can see).

:)

12. Fuck David Broder!
Broder is THE original GOP shill.

THAT's why he is always on Gwen Ifil's "Washington's Whores On Parade".

16. If Obama had agreed to the THMs last month...
...he would indeed have been taking a risk. Just not the one TYT's talking about. It's not about being worried about McCain 'lucking out' in one of those - assuming that the audience wouldn't be stacked - it's about Obama mopping the floor with the old fart to the point that either the Repugs decide that he's, McCain, is a loser and they need to dump him (for health reasons no doubt) before the Convention, or he'll have been so beaten up the country will take pity on him, or both. Either way, Obama's gonna make mincemeat out of the senile prick, or at least he could if he wanted to, he may just be too concerned that the country will all of a sudden start to worry about taking care of old people.
