Did anyone else watch "McEnroe" last night? I couldn't believe it.

[terrya]

It was like..."The Democratic Underground Show" or something. He had Katrina Vanden Heuvel and Marc Maron of Air America...and NO right wingers to "balance" the show. Just two great liberals, presenting a nice liberal tone to the show. I couldn't believe what I was seeing....usually, it's some right wingers and a wishy washy quasi liberal person on "balance" ala "Hannity and Colmes"

1. Where is it on? n/t

[ObaMania]

4. On CNBC @ 9 or 10 est. n/t

.

[OKNancy]

2. Not last night

but sometime last week. McEnroe read some of his hate-mail. It was from Republicans and freepers who said they wouldn't watch his show anymore now that they learned he was a liberal.

[checks-n-balances]

3. WOW!!! Sorry I missed that one & I'm gonna see if there's a repeat

thanks for the heads up - I'll be watching from now on. Hope lots of other people will be too.

And if he's been getting hate mail already, he's sure to get more after last night!

[ObaMania]

5. Guess they need someone to offset that idiot Dennis Miller

.. it's hard to watch McEnroe IMO, but if his show is left-leaning, maybe it is worth a look!

[skippysmom]

6. I may have to give him a try

Sounds like he's a hidden gem like Olbermann.

[Norquist Nemesis]

7. I'll have to check him out

Especially if last night's lineup is an indication of what's to come.

[0007]

8. Yeah, I watched it - kind of boring and insipid.

Just the opposite from the Dennis Miller show, which is a bigger joke.

[Bunny]

16. Dennis Miller is the opposite of boring and insipid?

Is that what you meant to say?

[0007]

18. What is it that you don't understand about Dennis Miller

being a bigger joke than John McEnroe?

Dennis Miller is boring and insipid, and I never implied that he was the opposite of boring and insipid.

In other words John McEnroe is no ball of fire either.

[Bunny]

26. Jesus Christ take a goddamn pill!

Your post may make perfect sense to you, but it said just the opposite to me. What part of that don't YOU understand? :mad:

sheesh. :eyes:

[0007]

27. ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((gong))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))


You've had your say please sit down!!
:dunce:

[Bunny]

30. Sit your own hostile self down.

If you cannot tolerate a simple request for clarification, I don't think even pills can help you.

[0007]

31. I repect your opinion -

.....and there might be something to what your saying, LOL!

[Guaranteed]

9. He's a liberal?

Is that...a good thing? :P

[Catch22Dem]

10. That's what we need

A good liberal foot soldier. We have tons of great liberal thinkers, but few liberal FIGHTERS. McEnroe is definitely a fighter.

[RetroLounge]

11. Katrina Vanden Heuvel was great

Called the Bush* admin Neanderthals who want to tak America back to the 19th Century.

and no one from the right to scream about it!

[Ripley]

20. Take us back to the 19th century?

Would that be where women are only talked about in terms of their fuckability?

Wow, that would be so different from now. :eyes:

[rpannier]

12. McEnroe has always been more favorable to Liberal causes

He campaigned against Guliani and for Cuomo. He was described by Jimmy Connors in the early 80's as the most Liberal American tennis player (and Connors was fairly liberal at the time, he campaigned against Reagan.) So I'm not surprised.

[G_j]

14. saw him years ago with a Greatful Dead T-shirt

read he played electric guitar. just a bit of trivia

[OneTwentyoNine]

13. WTF?? I knew he had a show coming on....

I saw him a couple of times during Wimbledon but....I thought it was only to be sports related. Damn...I gotta tune in.

17. It's a good show

And John is a die-hard liberal!!! :)

[ElementaryPenguin]

23. A good show, that looks like its going to get better...

Provided the network gives him time. So let's email or support! Nice to follow up the lying, vomit-inducing scuzzbag whore Miller with some friggin' TRUTH and sincerity - even if it is McEnroe's caustic brand!!

[Killarney]

15. I'll have to check it out. Thanks.

They haven't done any advertising for it at all. I remember before Dennis Miller's show started, they were advertising all over the place for it.

[ElementaryPenguin]

19. I saw it! It was fantastic! Johny Mac on the attack!

Looks like we've got another anti-BushCoestablishment hero! I wouldn't have started another thread, had I seen yours. Sorry.

[Ann Arbor Dem]

21. It's on at 10:00 p.m. EDT, right after Miller's show.

The guests tonight are Brian Williams (ick), Jeff Garlin and Rachel Harris.

24. Thanks!

I'm asking all my friends & relatives to watch, too!

[kentuck]

22. McEnroe let out a secret....

He went to the same elementary school as Katrina and had a crush on her.

[terrya]

25. Hell, *I* have a crush on Katrina...and I'm gay. :-)

Katrina Vanden Heuvel is a sexy, gorgeous, smart woman. And liberal to boot. :-)

28. I love that John McEnroe. He will not be intimidated by ANYONE.

He's a typical New Yawker. I hope the show satys on the air. The critics trashed the first show he had (It was kind of bad). Hopefully - it was just a temporary slip-up.

[West Coast Democrat]

29. I'm so MAD I missed it!

I love Mark Maron's show!

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

32. oif course drudge has to bash it

going after john's ratings in his latest headlines (while ignoring Joe Dead Intern an Turncoat Miller's paltry numbers)

[graywarrior]

33. John's quirky

So's the show, but I was surprisingly pleased with it.
