Wolf just showed a clip saying the republican plaform is wrong

[AnIndependentTexan]

Good morning america. He is flip flopping. Anyone have a transcript of this ? Bush just screwed up! It was the gay marriage stance.

[AIJ Alom]

1. yeah he said he supports civil unions and the party platform is wrong !!!

[LiberalFighter]

3. Is he getting that desperate??

When has gw* ever been for civil unions for same sexes?

[AIJ Alom]

6. i think laura fed him that line and somewhere Rove is groaning !!!

[bloom]

15. I think it's more likely to be a ROVE last ditch attempt

- I don't think W. cares what Laura thinks - not if it went against ROVE.

[kokomo]

13. There are ONE MILLION gay Republican votes.

Rove thought they could sacrifice the Log Cabin Republicans in order to go after the bigger evangelical Christian PRIZE, but now Bush needs every vote he can get, EVEN STEAL!

[NewYorkerfromMass]

Yes. He is getting desperate

There is no reason to alienate your base at a time you need them most.
Rove must have told him to say this.

[Eurobabe]

2. David Gergen on, bad week for preZnit

yeah....NSS, weapons fiasco, Allawi saying US neglected Iraqi troops, Bu$h wants more $$$ for war, consumer confidence down.

Talking about Kerry gaining momentum. Kerry's gonna crack this nut wide open!!

[BeyondGeography]

4. Are we having a GREAT week, or what?

Gergen's litany (he was big on Clinton's return as well) was music to my ears.

5. Bush stance on Civil Unions Angers Groups (Guardian)

[AIJ Alom]

8. if this hasn't been reposted, I think you should repost it for all

freepers.

[LiberalBushFan]

7. Maybe Mary Cheney threatened to endorse Kerry. n/m

[xray s]

9. Bush is taking a dive

He must know the news about Iraq and the economy is so bad he is cutting loose his base to ensure Kerry wins.

It wouldn't be the first time Bush ran away from a tough job...he is not up to the task of fixing his screw ups.

[terrya]

10. If you believe that Bush is actually serious about this nonsense...

I have the proverbial bridge in Brooklyn I'd like to sell you.

[troublemaker]

12. His seriousness isn't an issue. This demonstrates that they their polls

are showing hemorrhaging toward Kerry among suburban women--losses so serious they justify angering the base.

[LiberalFighter]

24. Time for their base to implode YEAHHHHH

[Czolgosz]

11. Read the Constitutional amendment Bush UNEQUIVOCALLY and repeatedly

backed. It CLEARLY bans gay marriage AS WELL AS ALL CIVIL UNIONS. If the Republicannibal platform is wrong, then Bush has been wrong many, many times when he endorsed the amendment to shore up his base. Bush has flip flopped BIG TIME, and it's on one of those issues that he talks to God about so how could that be?

[AIJ Alom]

14. does this man have any idea what he supports ?

[bloom]

18. NO eom

[Czolgosz]

20. He knows exactly what he supports -- whatever KKKarl says.

Sometimes he goes a little off message when he doesn't have that hump in his back to keep all the voices in his head in line.

[nostamj]

17. EXACTLY!

* just PISSED in the fundie's punchbowl and did it on mainstream TV...

great job suppressing the bible bigots george!

[Bandit]

16. That's Okay Bush* there won't be any casualties

:shrug:

[bloom]

19. Now if he backs down on his strict anti-abortion stance

the only reason some people (who listen to FOX or whoever) will have to vote for him will be Teresa Heinz Kerry.

[ewagner]

21. This is the biggest

flip-flop ever for dubya!

If this gets enough publicity, his base will desert him IN DROVES!!!!!

They won't vote for Kerry, they'll just stay home!

[Leilani]

22. The Republican platform was written for Bush

his people oversaw the process...

their internal polls have them worried...

did Rove just figure out Fundies do not make up over 50% of voters?

[iwantmycountryback]

23. There goes some evangelical votes

Man the bad news is just pouring on this week.
