Hey Ron Paul fans, are you gonna take that?
Amero!
Republican Debate Thread: Fred Thompson, Coma Or ‘Ludes?By: Jane Hamsher Sunday January 6, 2008 5:25 pm |
Fox decides Ron Paul, who is ahead of Fred Thompson in the polls by arguably as much as 7 points in New Hampshire, should not be a part of tonight's Republican debate.
Hey Ron Paul fans, are you gonna take that?
Amero!
‘allo…
Paul is obviously not a “Fox Republican”.
Thompson is showing a little energy. Sitting up straight, even.
Wow, am I just slow today or are the posts coming in really fast!
McCain slamming Rumsfeld. And this has affected our security and future. Osama bin Laden has tapes!! He’s been an agent of chain.
so if Freddie was on ‘ludes, how would we know know the difference?
You’re slow. ;~)
Oh my god, after last night’s debacle they’re actually letting them do it AGAIN?!! M A K E I T S T O P !!!
Romney says Washington needs top to bottom change. Not government paid healthcare, though. He qualified that. Whew!
:)
This debate brought to you by VI*GRA.
-g
second layer of Depends….
I don’t think one need be a Paul supporter to see this is just another FOX Goebbels production.
Romney is going for McCain’s VP?
You can see why Paul and Kuchinich feel a certain kinda bond.
Ross Perrot for the 21st Century?
‘Ludes, OBVIOUSLY…no question, really.
This is CNN and abc? I am confused. Why did I think that this was going to be a Fox event?
Has Mitt dumped a loaf in his holy briefs yet?
-G
Thompson is absolutely on speed. He’s putting several sentences together into an actual thought.
Fox, Snarks.
If I were a Ron Paul fan (and I’m not, ’cause I’m voting for meself!), I’d be calling my cable provider and asking them to drop FOXNews from the service, for three reasons:
1) That network is not about news, it’s about opinions;
2) That network has had problems with reporting the facts, has been error-prone, and can be considered an unreliable source of information;
3) There are better channels to be had. Like, oh, the Anime Network. Or the Knitting Channel. Or BBCAmerica (more Who! More Torchwood!) Or that channel where all they show is a grapefruit, rotating on the screen.
The Paultards should insist that FOX be dropped by February and replaced with something better, if not then they will drop their cable providers.
I think that’s doable.
Hell, the rest of us ought to be calling the cable providers to drop FOX as well. It’s not doing any of us any good anyway.
“Change is a slogan.” Well, “Rudi is a dork.”
heh heh.
Does your screen say cnn & abc? or am i watching yesterday’s in repeats?
My take on Mr. Thompson is that he is past his prime.
Clemons says ‘these accusations will not change me as a person’……I will remain a prickly, arrogant douchebag.
-G
That’s the single most charitable thing I’ve ever heard or read about Fred Thompson…!
CNN has been rerunning the ABC debate from last night. Confused me too.
OK. I found the right one. Backround is a green looking house?
Unless you consider the Butcher’s definition of “prime” which would be “full of fat.” In that case, he’s right in there!
Margaret Carlson: Fred, you smell dreeeeeeaaaaaaaammmy. What is it?
Fred: It’s Cadaver by Calvin Klein.
-G
Romney just said that voters are looking for a governor to be elected for 8 years.
Why should the Paul supports be left alone in re FOXs’ BS? It’s wrong no matter who the candidate might be, imo.
Hi, SnarK, Marion, kiddo, GregB, newsp, Paul, Loohoo, Swifty, Mack, Eureka, Doctor KJ, TW, hmm, jayt, and JANE!
Swifty, you the Swifty?
Gotta wonder if Jeri and Judi are on MySpace, shopping for new models who might have a better chance of getting them to the White House than Fred and Rudi. Those tiaras must be rather tarnished by now….
I sure wish there was a punctuation mark that was the opposite of ! to put after Fred’s name.
Fred#
Fred%
Fred^
Fred~
Fred and McCain were great buddies in the senate. They want to be buried together.
Hey SKassandra - FOX News is a live event and CNN looks like a repeat.
Oh, and Happy New Year to you and yours! ;~)
If ya can’t tell em apart- McCain’s the older one.
Oops, the Stepford Mitt is getting glitchy. The handlers are scrambling for the reset button! This is good stuff!
Jeez, PLEASE don’t let McCain laugh again… It’s horrifying.
hi Prof!
Get Rudi an Mitti out of there- make the world safe for cadavers.
My take on Mr. Thompson is that he is past his prime.
He’s past his bedtime.
I will *not* watch Fox.
But if anybody else is, I’d be happy to hear the live-blog… *g*
My teevee has been trained that there IS no FOX.
was he referring to the closeted gays who espouse family values?
Mine may never forgive me…
Hello Prof, and Teddy, how about Thompson_______
Fox has spoken: Chris Wallace thinks Huckabee is an idiot.
And Ron Paul does not exist.
747
I can’t remember his drivel, sorry.
Oh, is that pudgy simpering creep Chris Wallace? I’ve managed to avoid knowing who he was and what he looked like up until now. (It hasn’t been easy…)
Fred_ (La-Z-Boy)
Huckabee just said “I don’t have the slip of the truth.”
Seems a safe bet the Crazy Train McCain will have J. Low LieberME!!! as his VP. They made a big to-do when Likuderman announced support for Crazy Train. What an inspiring and exciting “tri-partisan” ticket that would be!!
blech.
Fred, Geri, ludes, Viagra - OMG, that’s disgusting!
Did somebody say Ron Paul?
OT: I been bloggin!
We are looking at this Fox Republican thing. Gawd. Can I do another hour of this? Lahoma is getting restless. I don’t give her five more minutes.
Marion, yes, the son of Ed Wallace. Must be embarrassing for him.
Ghoul says he is the only one having to face an Islamic terrorist attach.
Fox oughta get Hillary to moderate this debate.
Which I am not watching (yet).
Did Rudi grab somebody else’s teeth? They seem oversized for him…
This weekend saw the first world invitational shit for brains finals
in the republican debate. No coma, not ludes, but pure scheisskopf, pups.
Best republican field I’ve ever seen… you gotta love it!
Quick — make her a margarita…
Rudy is such a gas bag.
I surely is schadenfreudelicious.
You’d think that with the hundreds of millions he’s made doing post 9/11 security, he’d be able to afford a decent set of dentures.
Why does Rudy always sound like Grandpa telling angry “when I was a kid” stories at awkward moments that everybody has heard a hundred times and long since ceased responding to?
That should be IT is….etc…
Son of Mike Wallace of Sixty Minutes fame.
Rudi stared down the terrorists eyeball to eyeball- and they bombed the shit out of his city killing three thousand…for this he wants credit.
I would… but we have to go back to work in the morning. ;0)
Hey, you fucking kids! Get offa my lawn!!
Those of us who lived in NYC during the Giuliani mayoralty could have explained all of this ten years ago.
heh
“Fred,Would you like to weigh in on Governor Romney’s answer?”
Fred; “Applesauce!”
Because he’s used to people believing him, respecting him, and hippity hopping around with regard to whatever he says.
Is he stupid?
Me too, but I have to have a beer to get through this!
Right, thanks.
Maybe Condi needs to run.
History shows- if ya want to escape terrorist attacks- vote for ANYONE but Rudi or Clusterfuck-they can’t stop the bombing- but they give lots of speeches AFTERWARDS.
how does he know what the people at Gitmo have done? they didn’t have a trial!
hmmmm, backslash between Fred and _ does not show up, thus screwing up my recliner punctuation….
Oh, beer, there’s an idea!
Huckabee is in a class all by himself. He thinks Gitmo is great.
Shorter Chris Wallace: Let’s give John McCain a moment to promote himself.
i thought they didn’t have women in the navy back then.
Let’s not forget Fox News actually won a court case involving fired reporters who refused to read obvious lies on the basis that lying is a first amendment right of all persons, corporate or otherwise.
This Bush neocon Federalist Society court system we get to live with will be Bush’s actual legacy.
McCain thinks being endorsed by that collection of Sectys of State is a GOOD thing???
So does Fred because if those people where held in the US, god forbid, they’d have RIGHTS!
The MSM is a dead man talking.
He’s Nancy Kerrigan’s stand-in. He even wears her tights.
-G
I’m firing up my recording of Kill Bill.
No - not *that* Bill…
McCain could use a new set of pearly whites himself.
Everything is wrong from the neck up on McCain.
Yes. Especially Kissinger.
This gathering of the Republicans on Fox. What a concentration of know-nothings.
Oh, please let me play Tonya Harding… PLEASE…!
What channel is the debate on???
I wanna see Mitt in tights and a superman costume.
Faux News, heaven help us.
If these guys get short of campaign cash we ought to help them do a tour,
I mean, you cannot make this stuff up.
Rudy kind used poor logic in one of his TV. Sez the Iranians released the US hostages when Ronnie Reagan took his oath of office.
Using that logic, Al Qaeda waited to Bush TOOK his oath of office to launch their attack.
-G
Thanks Marion
McCain luvs him some George W. Bush.
Just noticed THIS:
“Sen. Barack Obama has opened a double-digit lead in New Hampshire over Sen. Hillary Clinton just two days before that state’s Democratic primary, a new CNN-WMUR poll found Sunday. Obama, who won last week’s Democratic caucus in Iowa, now leads Clinton by 10 percentage points after being virtually tied in a previous poll.”
FOX news.
What’s with the title, “First-In-The-Nation Presidential Forum” on Fox News? And is immigration (back door racism) the only issue the Fox News viewers talk and care about?
mmm. Beer.
McCain tells us we need to be “compassionate”. Where have I heard that before?
It really should be on the Comedy channel.
Yeeps….I guess ya haven’t seen the video….Whoofah…
Take a rain check!
-G
Wallace asks Huckabee if he stands by his remark about children of undocumented aliens. Huck stands beside it.
“Obama, the first-term senator from Illinois who won last week’s Iowa caucuses, led the New York senator and former first lady 39 percent to 29 percent in a poll conducted Saturday and Sunday — a sharp change from a poll out Saturday that showed the Democratic front-runners tied at 33 percent.
Support for former Sen. John Edwards, who edged out Clinton for second place in Iowa, dropped from 20 percent in Saturday’s poll to 16 percent.
On the Republican side, Sen.John McCain leads former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney by a narrower margin — 32 percent to 26 percent, the survey found — while former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee moved up to third after winning last week in Iowa.”
they did
well
not really
but it sounds good
Lahoma just ran upstairs.
Rudy - like other deadly boring gasbags is infatuated with his own voice.
Huckabee is spanking Mittie?
it’s not an idea
it’s the american way of life
(and german and mexican and british and..)
9/11 happened on who’s watch?
A GOP Prez. and a GOP congress.
Apparently the specter of Ronald Reagan didn’t loom so large.
-G
USA Today/Gallup just had one come out today showing Obama with a 13% lead.
Obama 41%
Clinton 28%
Edwards 19%
McNewspaper isn’t always the most accurate, but that’s a pretty big number.
Huckabee says even RONALD REAGAN can make mistakes. And that he did with the amnesty of undocumented aliens!!
Goopers go ga-ga when Rudi says tough things about terrorists
“Why I’d pull their fingernails out- gouge out their eyeballs- waterboard em till they were waterlogged”
And the crowd ROARED!
Siun upstairs
Ghouliani, bald, wrinkled, glasses, poor dentures. Inspirational, huh?
what about all the people that come in boats?
Answer to a maiden’s prayers…
Forgot this part…USA Today poll
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/200.....ocrats_rdp
Well, as I recall, an FDL headliner did invite these guys to “bite me”…Rudy supersizes everything!
Thompson sounds like a cartoon character we all know. Who is it? Someone on Huckleberry Hound or one of the really old ones. A horse with a sheriff badge or something.
