Fascist Friday: Brian begging for Repub callers to support Andy Card & *.

[CottonBear]

:) He's running excerpts of an Andy Card interview to be broadcast on Sunday night. Basically, Card is sucking up to *. :puke:

Even the * callers are not happy with *. They comment on the issues of immigration and abortion but there's no mention of gay marriage.

Weird comment by a woman * supporter: she referred to living in "the red zone" instead of in a red state or area. Are they feeling hemmed in, under fire or at war? Interesting.

[slor]

1. LOL...I was listening too...

I am enjoying this so much!

[ElectroPrincess]

2. Yeah, I'm placing bets on whether or not ole'

covert Right Wing Brian Lamb also shills for Rove (KKKarls FAV reporter MaTTy) by CITING The Drudge Report. Nothing is "always" but I bet he may mention him like he's done on several Fridays. It's too funny how Brian promotes Drudge. Makes you wonder?

[rodeodance]

4. He reminded callers that the # is supports of Bush, NOT those who used

to support Bush but no longer do. Brian sounds frustrated.

[rodeodance]

5. This was in response to someone who called in on the "Support Pres.

Bush" line (who used to support him but no longer does)

[Viva_La_Revolution]

6. Caller calls bullsh*t!

says * supporters get 50% of the calls, but only 38% actually support him!

give that man a :toast:

[Roland99]

12. Sweet!

[ChairmanAgnostic]

3. say, is that a brownie Arabian?

Card is trying to replace Rove? Does that explain the disasters in the making?

[rodeodance]

7. I missed the beginning--Was there something he said to support?--or

just agree with Andy Card?

[rodeodance]

9. Card is on now saying--repeating the WH mantra--troops home when

democracy can be supported by Iraqi troops taking over.

[rodeodance]

13. non supporter "perhaps no Arabian horses died but people did"

[rodeodance]

14. "Republicans only care about their friends" (says the non-supporter)

[QuettaKid]

8. Who is this Brian Lamb? nt.

.

[Roland99]

10. He's on the rotation of hosts on the morning call-in.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

11. on Washington Journal - CSPAN

He's the host.

and this is Fascist Friday!

:)

[rodeodance]

17. suporter of Card says people blame Bush for everything-9/11, immigra'

tion, etc etc. says bush will do down as a great President.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

15. C-SPAN Washington Journal host and founder of C-SPAN.

[ProfessorGAC]

33. He's The CEO Of CSPAN

The Professor

[Coexist]

61. He always hosts Fascist Friday!

He is a barely veiled neo-con who looks up at his over-the-edge right with that oxycontin shine the right prizes so highly.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

23. sorry folks. I was referring to CottonBear's horsie.

not the shill on C-Span.
Although, it is funny to watch that too.

my bad.

[CottonBear]

37. The horse is an Oldenburg stallion named Coromino. He's my filly's sire

My Cotton filly looks a lot like her sire. I know she would not like Brownie. You can't fool a horse. Brownie isn't even worthwhile enough to scoop Cotton's poop, IMHO. :(

Can you believe the few gung-ho Republican callers? They've had a vat of kool-aid. Good lord. Did you hear the first * caller make the "living in a red zone" comment? She must feel like she's under fire.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

38. no kidding. I did like the kid from Corpus Christie, nervous but with it

Cute horsie. I think they are such noble animals, and so able to read emotions and thoughts of humans.

Hmm. maybe, that is why Bush is so scared of them.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

16. "all the Democrats have to offer us is fear"

good lord. Talk about transference.

Sir, step away from the Kool-aid.

[rodeodance]

18. Woodruff, WI---disagrees with Card--"biggest lie of Administion--they

took us into an illegal war"---not to bring democracy to Irag.

[rodeodance]

19. also says that it is the Repugs who instill FEAR (and that other caller

was wrong).

[CottonBear]

29. The Republicans offer only fear. Card's first comments were about 9-11.

Transference is exactly what they are doing.

A woman is taking * to task for staged photo ops and called him a puppet. hah!

[rodeodance]

31. USA today--not on Front page "staged" comment-then showed NYPost

with big headlines--Victory--upbeat etc (not the word 'staged").

[rodeodance]

32. Did the word 'staged' get on front page of any major newspaper? (my

question).

[rodeodance]

34. I find it interesting that c-span did an interview with Andy --Rove must

be on the way out?

[rodeodance]

35. a caller is smaking the Dems as well as the Repugs for sending troops

to Irag to die.

[Skidmore]

36. He's right.

[CottonBear]

40. Caller just asked if WH or CSPAN set up interview. Brian said CSPAN did.

The caller called in on the Democrats line.

[July]

41. rodeodance, I posted on this very notion yesterday

after reading a diary at DailyKos that said that Card picked Miers and was really browbeating people to accept her. So I had the same thought as you -- is Card taking over for Rove? Starting to look that way, I guess we'll know soon.

[rodeodance]

46. thanks. I note we see lots of Barlett and Card now (Rove and chenney

not so visible).

[rodeodance]

20. Brian looks and sounds crumpy today.

[rodeodance]

22. this is a silly show--as Card just repeats the WH line.

[rodeodance]

24. Brian has a live one-some woman gushing about Bush.

[Skidmore]

25. Have you noticed that the line has shifted from "our great and

fearless neader now" to "sometime in the future" he will be recognized as great and fearless leader.

[rodeodance]

28. good catch.

[rodeodance]

30. supporter saying lots of things that are going on started long before

Bush became president (but did not mention Clinton)--she was talking of immigration (other things also).

[Viva_La_Revolution]

21. Death Tax again...

Somebody needs call in and tell them Mussolini made sure to get rid of the death tax for his rich buddies too.

[rodeodance]

26. Well, Brian seems to have callers calling on the right line now. He is

settled down.

[rodeodance]

27. nonsupporter calling in says troops need take acting lessions cause

they sound soooo scripted (if they want to improve).

[Skidmore]

39. Man the callers are right on this morning, and they are

not afraid to take on all the lies.

[rodeodance]

42. I really wish this show was not set up in such a binary-yes/no--as it sets

up for divisions and does not allow a real discussion (in many instances). The 3rd line (other parties) does not help this situation.

[rodeodance]

43. Lots of people are following O'Lielly now--saying the Dems are Kool-

Aid drinkers.

[CottonBear]

49. Very few people call in on the 3rd line.

The National Review man, John Derbyshire, just gave * a B+ grade.
Give me a fucking break. I bet the WH sent him over to be on CSPAN.

[CottonBear]

44. The Dem callers have upset an old * lady. She says her health is bad

because she's upset by the Democratic callers and that she thinks the anti-* comments are bad for America. :puke: Well, my advice is stop watching.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

45. Next up - that rag the National Review

John Derbyshire, National Review, Columnist
http://www.nationalreview.com /

:puke:

[CottonBear]

47. It's an all-facist Friday! Woohoo!

:sarcasm:

Someone tell this John Mercurio of the Hotline to get rid of that ridiculous hairdo. It's standing straight up in the front and it's 4 inches long at leat. Absurd looking.

[rodeodance]

48. Deryshire gives Bush a B+--suffering from 'transiant' things--will resolve

[rodeodance]

50. Brian asking him what he makes about the Conservatives and Miers--

talking of Repub (civic minded) activists.they are the ones who make up the party.

Then there are the 'chattering classes" like him -who have a disconnect.
He is making fun of himself also.

[rodeodance]

51. Derby calls people like himself metrocons-and admits there is a gap

between people like him (generally talking of conservatives who do not like Miers)--and the regular Repug on the street).

[rodeodance]

52. Derbyshire was nationalized about 3 years ago (he says).

[rodeodance]

53. talking of Millions More March --says cpan will start at 5:30 tomorrow.

[rodeodance]

54. Derby said something about irresponsible males (Blacks)--when asked

about if March will do anything --or if the past march has helped.

[rodeodance]

55. He was talking of the single parent--ones who do not responsible for

their kids.

[rodeodance]

56. caller in is saying she was upset by Derby talk.

[CottonBear]

57. I assume he's a Republican. I wonder if he's a British or US citizen?

Woman Democratic caller is apalled at Derbyshire giving * a B+ rating. Oh, boo hiss. She couldn't say why she was aplled. Get it together people. Write down your comments and then call in.

[Skidmore]

59. Caller just made the point I was about to make...

this man cannot address what the experience of being black in America means. Pointed out that only 40 years ago, people were being hosed down in the streets.

[CottonBear]

64. He moved here in 1972. He simply did not have the expereince of living

in America prior to that time. There were very few blacks in England when he grew up there. He has no reference point. The black callers are taking him to task.

[Skidmore]

60. He's from England, said he was naturalized 3 yrs. ago..

Is equally clueless about being either color in America. Just shared that he used to work for oil companies and investment banks before becoming a writer.

[Coexist]

62. Ooh, so he knows all about the Black Experience

in America. Now the whole world makes sense!

[CottonBear]

58. Self-described Christian, military, Mexican-American * supporter

is upset with Derbyshire's comments about blacks in America. The caller says blacks have been hurt by 200 years of slavery and that Derbyshire doesn't know what he's talking about. Caller seems to be siding with blacks on the issue of the excessive incarceration of blacks.

I'm not sure what to think about this caller. Brian quizzed him and asked if he's a * supporter. The guy said yes.

[Skidmore]

63. Wooo, this young caller is good. Keeps calling him Jeremy and

points out that the legacy of slavery was to create the "animal" that he fears. That you can keep the animal down but you can't kill it. You can build all the prisons you want but you can't get rid of the bigotry and the reaction to it. That you just can't say as a white person to forget about it and get on with life--it is a real legacy. Jeremy trying to tell this young black man he doesn't know what he is talking about.

[CottonBear]

65. Argh! He's comparing the plight of blacks to that of the Irish.

Doh. What an idiotic comparison.

[Coexist]

66. Okay - we have gottent to the point... Democrats don't want blacks

to get jobs (because we refuse to stop illegal immigration).

Got it. Gee, thanks for that summation you imbecile.
