Rachel looks into how hypocrite John "I haven't seen this in my 20 years!" McCain denied Sen. Dayton "30 Seconds" to continue speaking on the Senate floor at the end of his anti-Iraq war speech in 2002 and that the video of this has been mysteriously deleted from C-Span's archive.

6. Thanks Rhiannon
Edited on Sat Dec-19-09 12:55 AM by Turborama
I missed that, checking it out now.

I do think Rachel makes a good point about its mysterious deletion from C-Span, though.

Oops, forgot to say :hi:

8. It seems really bizarre that Tweety would have the footage and Rachel didn't...
Don't these people talk? LOL. :D

But I do agree that Rachel had a valid point. However, she's incredibly sharp and should have known that it was available, but she obviously didn't know... :shrug:

Rhiannon :hi:

13. There is also something more serious here. CSPAN belongs to US.
This is destruction of Federal property. Some one hacked into CSPAN and deleted one of the incriminating objections but didn't know about the second one. They were not thorough. Silly Rs. The Dayton objection was deleted but the Byrd one remains.

In any case this is, I hope, a FEDERAL CRIME. But not likely because a Republican did it. :smoke:

19. I don't know where you got the idea C-Span is federal..it's supported
Edited on Sat Dec-19-09 09:13 AM by robo50
by a fee to all the major cable companies. There are no federal dollars involved.

Even C-Span's web pages tell you that.

"
Corporate Information
C-SPAN is a private, non-profit company, created in 1979 by the cable television industry as a public service. Our mission is to provide public access to the political process. C-SPAN receives no government funding; operations are funded by fees paid by cable and satellite affiliates who carry C-SPAN programming. "

14. So a member of the corporate party...
refused to give a few minutes more to a member of the other corporate party to express his pro corporate views and vice versa, this is truly shocking and unfair, we cannot tolerate this injustice, lets unite behind the corporate party.

15. Imagine if Old Man McCain were actually president!
Edited on Sat Dec-19-09 06:48 AM by mwb970
We would have four more years of a republican jerk in the Oval Office, this time accompanied by a ditzy airhead as VP instead of an evil sociopath.

Them republicans sure pick some winners, don't they?

17. Grand Obstructionist Party strikes again!!

Is RM the only one out there covering the GOP follies?? If the shoe were on the other foot, the Republicans would be howling, and every news channel would be covering it. If Americans only understood just how incredibly disingenuous, self-serving, hypocritical, and anti-American Republicans really are. Their behavior should be named and shamed each and every day.

18. Leave it to Rachel to find McCain's lying ass underbelly.....
...because she's one of the few remaining JOURNALISTS that we have. The rest of these jerks are just T's & A's.

20. Pretentious hypocrisy is the hallmark of Republicans
I've always said that. They live up to it every moment of every day and they have for all my life. That is my summary of the entire party and it has been for years, based on simple observation of their behavior.

There they go again . . .

23. For shame
Unfortunately those assholes have no shame. They are complete revisionist historians. Actually they just lie so much they don't know what the truth is anymore. And McCain is just getting too crazy. He lies that it's never happened before, but he did it himself.

Johnny "Lying" McCain.
