[futureliveshere]

regarding the Katrina gaffe...
and
on the free ride the media is giving him...
and
on his cake-cutting episode when Katrina hit New Orleans....

I love this.. LOVE IT!!!!

[Coexist]

1. shhhh...

don't tell people here, Olbermann is in trouble today.

[futureliveshere]

5. Hmmm.. I know.. KO just apologized on air for that too..

But he really did clobber McConfused just now.

[Coexist]

13. I was trying to not call out a fellow DUer

who posted a couple of unintentionally funny threads today.

But I love KO - I will catch the 10pm version - thanks for the thread.

2. I can't believe this isn't a big story

McCain gets let off easy on everything

[XLIXLI]

3. Lots of good stuff on Keith's show

Unless you happen to be a Hillary supporter, and don't like math and facts........

Well, Keith has so MANY facts and so MUCH math, he's hard to ignore.


His stuff on McCain will prove that McCain can't win against Hillary or Obama.....Republicans will regret having nominated him.

3 months from now, after another 60 Keith shows.

14. Hiya XLIXLI!

16. Hello.

Welcome to DU! :hi:

4. What was the gaffe?

[futureliveshere]

8. On Monday McC said when walking through Ward 9 that....

"we should rebuild, tear down or whatever"
(not an exact quote but close)

Now he just denies he said it... Senior moment.

[XLIXLI]

9. McCain was and is a gaffe

He claimed he would have "turned Air Force One" around, well, when Katrina hit New ORl. guess where Bush and McCain were!!!

Celebrating McCain's BIRTHDAY with a CAKE in Arizona! Side by side.

11. When said that he would....

Talk about whether to keep or even possibly tear down the lower 9th ward in New Orleans (aka peoples homes) and when asked about it the next day he said he didnt remember saying it. He said that if he was president during Katrina he would have flown air force one there and been there the first day, but he was actually with President Bush on that day and didnt tell Bush to do that. Instead he posed for pictures outside Air force one in Arizona with Bush on Mccains birthday.

6. I wonder how much of KO's shows come from DU suggestions?

I bet this one did.

7. GOD! I knew about the cake, but I hadn't heard

"so we can built it up, tear it down, or whatever..." , and saying the next day " I don't remember saying that...."

That clip of Meredith Vierra confronting John McCain with the DNC's statement about McCain voting record on Katrina was amazing.


What an idiot!

[futureliveshere]

10. Exactly.. This is the guy people are worried about. Obama will take him to the cleaners...

[marimour]

15. i cant wait till the presidential debates. Obama will wipe the floor with him on all of this.

The press basically ignores McCains record and just believes what he says.

[XLIXLI]

12. Somebody put this clip of Vierra and McCain on You tube!! n/t

[ErinBerin84]

19. haha, maybe I will later

the best part was that John McCain didn't even respond to it, he just said "I've been down here helping...ask the governor!"

Joe Scarbs gets so mad whenever someone confronts him about McCain's gross flip-flops. I remember Rachel saying "I'm sorry, Joe. I'm sorry that the FACTS don't match up with the story that people want to tell about McCain."

17. Did he even know what the friggin' cake was for?

I have my doubts..............

[barack the house]

18. KO was wrong for his joke but he's been right for us for many years.WTG KO at least he is for us.

[XLIXLI]

20. Wrong for what?

[futureliveshere]

21. What do you mean?
