Blitzer is an idiot. Those questions he was feeding Dean were so obviously misleading. I love it when Dean puts this fool back in his high-chair and feeds him truth one simple spoonful after another. That's what we are going to have to do with the rest of the Republican spin machine. Make fools of them enough, maybe their corporate sponsors will back off from them.

What's wrong with strip-searching a ten year girl?

Go Dean! Glad he says what he says, though he should be saying more. As for Lieberman...give him his elephant pin already that republican wannabee, kick him out of the democratic party!

What's Ricky's comment on the 80% body armor fatality report?

Perhaps Ricky's afraid of Bush's latest ploy:

Bush signs Internet 'trolling' ban

"Up to two years in jail for anonymous abuse, threats, harassment or annoyance."

So what do you think of your Emperor now Ricky?

Good ol Mush Head Blitzer, he wouldn't say anything unless it was okayed from the corpratists on high in his own building

What annoyes me about the "trolling bill" is that "annoyance" is included.. Lemme get this straight.. if I annoy someone I can go to prison for 2 years???

Can someone explain to me how that works? I mean, if it won't be too annoying.. :rollseyes:

I can understand making it so you can't send death threats anonymously, but not allowed to be annoying? how the hell do you even define that, legally?

Judge: In your own words, Mr. Jones.. tell us how this person's response to your comments on blog blahblah.com were received by you.

Mr. Jones, on the stand, under oath: Your Honor.. I was annoyed..

Prosecutor: There you have it your Honor.. Annoyance in violation of the law. We demand that Liberal Scum be put in prison with rapists and murders for TWO YEARS!!!!!!

That's right up there with the guy being labled a sex offender for yelling at a kid that ran out in front of his car..

This country is going in the shitter, and fast..

To be on topic... I can't believe people out there STILl don't get what's going on.. They keep refusing to see what's happening and how shitty this Administration is. Letting troops die? when we had the armour? WTF!? Why wasn't it shipped? Is there an investigation as to why we let so many peopl die when we had a way to protect them? Are people in the military FINALLY gonna wake up and see that they are being laughed at and allowed to die for the personal amusment of whom ever failed to ship that armour? I'd guess it's the same group of folks that say "support our troops", then defund veteran programs so those that get permanantly maimed fighting this illegal war can't get any medical help when they get home.

Howard Dean is finally recovered from the long battle of coming from nowhere to be the frontrunner in the last nomination cycle. I truly believe that between the DLC fighting him so hard and the relentless schedule of his campaign, he simply hadn't the physical stamina left to put across the true Howard Dean anymore. His voice seems to have finally returned. His mental poise has stabilized after this whirlwind life of his over the past nearly three years. He is now the DNC chairman in full, and speaking as he did in the early months of his campaign. Truly, sensibly, forcefully, credibly. I said from the start that he was a man apart from the herd of political drones, a man in whom we would do well to place our trust, and disappointed as I was when he seemed to lose his nerve once achieving the frontrunner status, clearly exhaustion had more to do with it. We should line up behind him, support him however we can.

That was the kind of American I want in my life on that video. He certainly fried Wolfie's circuits, and THAT is leadership. THAT is heart.

Since it is now against the law to annoy anyone I am forwarding all of the annoying emails I recieve straight to the justice department so they can take the proper action. :rolleyes:

I wonder if all of the E.D. medicine, male organ enlargement and "find a hot date tonight" email I get daily qualifies?

It annoys the hell out of me daily when I have to go through the mail my filter removed just to be sure it didn't capture a legitimate email I need.

Awooooooooooo The Said The WereWOLF (blitzer) of CNN Clueless News Network.

Howard Dean is Very Cool and The explained the gop JACK abramOFF Scandel Well.

In that interview Dean did what all Democrats should do. Speak the truth. Truth is like kryptonite to republicans.

#11 That E.D. medicine & male organ enlargement o'reilly Works, I Never Roll out of Bed Any More . . . . . /

The parting shot of Blitzer in total befuddlement in one pane and a smiling Dean in the other pane is classic.

Its the majority of Americans that put republicans in charge. You want power back, you need to win they respect with ideas for the future, not ocmplain about the past.

Here's an idea for this new internet law:

Everyone in the U.S. should now legally change their names to their internet pseudoname. You may still use your "real" name in everyday use.

Weddings would be more interesting:

Do you, Strawberrybitch, take this man, Beezlebub, to be your lawfully wedded....

Somebody should challenge the "annoying Internet" thing in court immediately. Crap like that can't be allowed to stand!

All of the bad is a reflection of who we are. Our politicians were raised in our schools, went to our churches, and we elected them-mostly. These politicians are mirrors of ourselves the American people. All we can change is ourselves! If everyone changed themselves for the good these people would cease to exist because we made them. Instead if we tend to make good we will reap goodness. If you compromise in small things you will compromise in big things. www.urbanterrorists.com

No compromise at all Dean, I completely disagree.

If Harry Reid took the money, he should be punished.

Period. If any democrat is proven to have taken his personal money for favors they should be punished. If it was only from indians, who in some off hand way got connected to Abramoff and Norquist later, they should not be touched.

Such as Byron Dorgan, he has never taken any personal money. Just worked with indians and has a history with them before ever hearing of Abramoff.

Hear, hear, Adam Urban.

A national poll some 15 years ago came out with the big news that most Americans felt that lying was okay, as long as it wasn't to a personal friend. Now we have liars running our country. Lying and cheating are not okay, never have been, and when we stoop to our laziness and greed, agree to lie and cheat to make a buck, or get ahead, THIS is its natural conclusion.

I don't seem to be able to get enough of this Dean/Blitzer video. It just really, really does it for me. * couldn't have held up a tenth as well under the same kind of questioning... less than that. Demoralized brethren! Download this video to bolster your spirit.

Oh get real. The truth is that while it may suit our purpose at the moment, the truth is that the Dems are very bit as guilty. Because they aren't in power why would anyone give them as much $$$$ ? If they were the party in control they would have received the yeoman's share of the big bucks. The bottom line isn't about the "party" it is about the system...the culture...the entitlement attitude we have allowed to grow in D.C. Elected officials have grown to believe that somehow they are "special", that they rise above the "masses". Frankly, I don't give a "s" how many of them are indicted or what party they are...only that the message is sent that their attitude does not prevail!

Bottom line Emma: Byron Dorgan did not take the money.

I have talked to him, he did not take the money. There has been alot of rumors being passed that he took Abramoff money. Byron Dorgan if I can clear the record here is someone who has dealt with indian tribes for a long time.

This is before he ever heard of Abramoff, Norquist or anyone. He receives money from indians and he helps out the indians where he can by talking with his colleagues.

There is no evidence anywhere that will prove Dorgan ever got involved with Abramoff. (And I challenge anyone to prove it.) Senator Dorgan is far closer to a independent than any democrat and McCain as well as himself have been investigating all of the Abramoff's activities.

Harry Reid I wouldn't be surprised anymore or many others probably did take money, but not much of it was any of Abramoff's. They were all on the take. But the bottom line is Abramoff is spinning a lie to smear Dorgan, McCain and anyone else investigating him.

The authorities have been notified.

Doug E.

Wow, I just watched the CNN Wolf Blitzer clip. I don't watch that much TV, but WB sure seemed like an aggravated Republican. Is he always so Pub-like?
I'm using a false name (OK, my nickname...) in order to irritate some of y'all and maybe be prosecuted for it...

peace out,

Anyone else have a problem with Dean's complaints about the leftest governments in Bolivia and Venezuala?
Sounds like we got ourselves an imperialist pig here. :angry:

Keep in mind that the Left does not believe in Superman, or The Lone Ranger. Or going it alone. Or in fighting evil....Today's far Left believes in fighting those who fight evil, in waging war against the war on terror. Besides, the New York Times would have published Superman's identity and branded him a fascist and a right-wing extremist reactionary bounty-hunting out-of-the-main-stream vigilante.

(#30)'s post is a bit of a waste of time, for one reason: throwing accusations at one side does not forgive the sins of the other side.

That's the last refuge of a person with a losing argument.

This administration is about fighting the war on keeping the price of oil in line with the rest of the World's economy, and lining their Corporatist backers' (read: Halliburton, Carlyle) pockets with gold.

The rest of it is a distant second. They're as much your enemy as any other poster on this page, whether you choose to recognize it, or not.

Jose: Superman and the Lone Ranger are fictional characters. Just like Jesus (no there is no tangible scientific evidence that the man Jesus ever existed. Find some outside of the bible if you can. And then prove that anyone who actually wrote any books of the bible ever met Jesus. Yes the burden of proof is on you.)

The war on terror is a falsehood. No war has been declared. It is a series of illegal maverick police actions with no international consensus or approval. "Going it alone" is simply another way of saying the rest of the world should do what we do and be like us, except that we will make the rules and control the resources. If the entire world operated the way our 5% does, we would have no resources left in 20 years (an educated guess.)

You have no clue about "America" do you? Really, honestly, not a clue... You would, as Franklin says, sacrifice your essential liberties for temporary security. Except that Bush offers you no security (reference the dramatic increase in terrorist events in the last 2 years) and you don't even see that.

You are pretty pathetic and hopeless. And yes, if you represent the war on terror or the fight against evil, then I am on the other side. So be it. Your labels mean nothing to me, they only serve to showcase your ignorance.

In the CNN segment this Sunday Howard said no Dems took money from Abramoff. Surf on over to the Center for Responsive Politics and you will see a bunch of Dems on the Abramoff list. What exactly does HD mean? How is he parsing his statement. What does "Abramoff money" mean?

I'd like to believe him but it seems that it might be political spin. I've been asking this question all over the blogosphere and so far no one is answering.

Read "Dean to Blitzer: 'There are no Democrats who took money from Abramoff'" on this Blog. maybe that will help you differentiate.

Abramoff is G.O.P. paymster and now the repugs. are attempting to spin thier way out by lying and pointing fingers at outhers in attempt to cover up corrupt,slezy,and cowerdly asses...

Cowardly asses.all they do is spin, don't leak,cover up,lie,blame the dems.,and stick with thier fearless leader the CHIMPand BLUBBER BUTT CHAINEY,he prefers ..cheney

Blitzer is an idiot. Those questions he was feeding Dean were so obviously misleading. I love it when Dean puts this fool back in his high-chair and feeds him truth one simple spoonful after another uk jobs. That's what we are going to have to do with the rest of the Republican spin machine. Make fools of them enough, maybe their corporate sponsors will back off from them.
