MSNBC - My head is about to explode!
WTF - MSNBC has a panel that is just fawning over bunnypants. The best bs/lie was Tucker Carlson when he said "no one doubts this is a noble cause, everyone knows that this isn't about oil, or building military bases, or imperialism." What a f-ing liar!!!

A "noble cause?" Oh, that's despicable :puke:

3. The best part was the "everyone knows" sweeping generalization fallacy

31. Yes, that's what they say when they can't think of anyone
That and "some say," and "informed sources."

30. Why deny it?
Tucker Carlson when he said "no one doubts this is a noble cause, everyone knows that this isn't about oil, or building military bases, or imperialism."

You know, no one would just, out of the blue, say "Hey. Just so you'll know. No one thinks I'm a child molester."

You don't deny being a child molester unless people have accused you of being one!

Bow-tie boy wouldn't say that if there hadn't been quite a lot of talk overheard about this war being about oil, building military bases, and imperialism.

Funny that he had to bring all those things up just to deny them......

The subcontext is: people believe those to be the real reasons for invading
Iraq.

19. Bartcop of bartcop.com claims to only have a 64, so me thinks
that 70 would be the cumulative IQ of these people.

20. Whew. That's what it took, all right - I'm better now.
Sorta lightheaded, but definitely better.

to watch General Clark.

Especially when you know what the end results will be? They are all liars and paid to be so. One has to wonder how they sleep at night?

17. So glad I'm not the only one
I mean, WTF -- look at that panel -- Tucker Carlson, Family Research Council, Eagle Forum, some big fat old preacher... could they have even attempted to make it appear slightly balanced?

We're not talking people who could even be disquised as impartial here. These are some radical right organizations...

I don't get it. What are they thinking?

...perhaps that means they're running out of slightly less demented "moderates" who are willing to stick up for George...

25. Ok, there's a slightly comforting thought
All I could think was: how long has it been since anyone took the Eagle Forum seriously? I thought we had disposed of that nonsense back in the 70s.

18. lady's face
Did anyone see the church lady in the crowd behind Chris, her facial response when he was making some negative comments about the reality was awesome, bitter realization.

22. Notice Olberman is nowhere near that panel. It must be so lonely being the
only person of character and integrity over at MSNBC.

29. KO is great. Can't think of anyone else unfortunately, Keith is a voice in
the wilderness. Something tells me the rest will soon be trying to pretend they always agreed with KO. The worm is turning.

KO is a class act. A pearl among swine.
