So now that Nader has confirmed he's a Bush sycophant
It's gonna be open season on Ralph Nader. Screw ignoring him. I say we destroy him. I want to see his tax records, I know he was invested in some mutual funds that held stock in Halliburton and Q-Oil. I want to see his campaign finance reports, I wonder how many RNC contributors are on that list? I want his schedule, so I'll know if he's stupid enough to come to Ohio. I'll invest in a "Here comes the Bush lover" signs. In fact, I'm not really sure what he's thinking, because everywhere that scumbag goes he's going to be ridiculed for being exactly what he is, a complete right-wing sellout.

2. May Satan torture him on the bottom floor of hell
For eternity. I would prefer he got a never-ending swarm of killer-bees.

4. If that maggot comes within 300 miles of me I'll be there
I will not stand for his lying this time around. If he thinks he can travel freely trying to help Bush he's got another thing coming. I've honestly never been so mad at a single political figure in my entire life.

7. I know what you mean

And I suspect Nader has no idea what's he's in for since he appears to have little connection to anything beyond his own ego. BTW, I think the anti-Nader backlash could end up helping our GOTV efforts because Dems will want to make sure the race isn't close enough for Nader to make a difference.

5. Remember he said that those fighting for women's
rights (choice) and GLBT rights were suffering from 'gonad' politics. Nader has never fought for these rights and actually advocated that the left ignore these issues so that the left could focus on his issues. In the early years, he said the same things about the environmental movement.

10. I had forgotten about
his ignoring of women's issues. But I do remember reading about that.

9. Such hatred
Such vitriolic hatred for Nader. Why don't you hate the Democrats for offering up a loser like Al Gore? Or for supporting Bush policy so whole-heartedly?

Make Nader a scapegoat if you must, but the real problem is that someone like Joe Lieberman can exist under the Democrat banner.

13. And Nader has no one to blame but himself for this reaction
Even many of longtime supporters have abandoned him. That doesn't tell you something? And what's with thw crack about Joe Lieberman? He's not even running anymore.

11. I like my idea for an anti-Nader sign:
Nader and Bush = Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum(b)

But I'm with you. Nader must be exposed. Even if he's not a direct threat to our candidate, his tactics cannot be tolerated. He's crossed over now and I consider him no better than a Puke.

12. Nader will be the Harold Stassen of independent politics,
at the rate he's going.

On MTP Nader suggested that Bush will drop in the polls anyway, so a vote for Nader won't hurt. Wishful thinking. Nader also said voters need a choice so that third parties can get started, that the great social changes in America resulted from third party movements (e.g. abolition of slavery). I suppose that's why Nader decided to run as an independent instead of a Green.

14. Let me get this straight
Nader says a vote for him won't matter because Bush is going to lose anyway? If he sees his candidacy as irrelevant to the outcome, then why is he running? Wait, logic isn't his strong suit.
