6. The DLC types hate Galloway |
|
Because he tells the truth about the stupidity of the neocon agenda.Just like they hate Michael Moore, Cindy Sheehan, or anyone else who calls attention to this shit, rather than trying to whitewash it under a "kinder gentler imperialism" like PNAC's PPI division does (which just happens to be in the same office as the DLC.

8. Because George Galloway speaks the truth about the crime |
|
cabal?
Galloway made a fool out of Hitchens. All Hitchens could do was resort to slime.

7. I saw part of it and didn't think the format/moderator were very good. |

9. YOU are definitely in the small minority with your opinion. |
|
What kind of format would you had liked to seen? And what's wrong with Amy Goodman? Or was it Galloway's truth about the crime cabal that bugged you?

10. I think Galloway is great and I usually like Amy Goodman. |
|
And I can't believe Hitchens is ever given a soapbox other than at a local pub.
However, it seemed like the format just gave the debaters time to talk without forcing resolution to issues or questions. Galloway is so right and Hitchens so wrong that it should have ended with Hitchens promising to withdraw from punditry forever.
Just my opinion.

12. Yes, but we need better debate formats. |
|
I am still furious over the Presidential debates and how they were weak on revealing truth and thrown to Bush.

15. When anyone attacks Amy Goodman they are on my fighting side. |
|
I have Galloway's testimony before the US Senate last Spring..Capitol Hill is not used to a fighter. The man is brillant.
