Ooh Boy! I'm watching the Biden "Revealed" and crying.....

[FrenchieCat]

and so was Joe. Wow......he has a compeling life story, and Jill is a Gem.

:cry:

[Sugarcoated]

1. He's so sincere and genuine

I got misty eyed, too.

[Stand and Fight]

2. Agreed....

Let's see if hey handle things more fairly in the second half. So far it has been very biased.

[FrenchieCat]

5. It's OK, he's not perfect, but he's better than that

Scary extremist gal.

remember that this is CNN!

[Danger Mouse]

3. The poorest senator in money, but one of the richest when it comes to humanity.

[medicswife]

4. I knew I would cry too,

so I'm watching a Law and Order rerun. My 9 year anniversary is in a couple of days and my husband's still in Iraq, so I didn't think I could handle Joe's compelling story on top of my already fragile emotional state.

I'm glad that it's good though. Yeah. Just thinking about it has tears welling up in my eyes too. :( Poor Joe. What a good guy. I loved during his introduction at the convention when Beau said that his Dad, his brother and he all married Jill five years later. That was just so sweet and poignant. And yes, Jill is indeed a gem. Remember how she was asking, "Where's Beau? Where's Beau?" After the speech?

Oh Jeez. I don't even need to watch it to bawl.

[seabeyond]

10. i am sorry you are missing your husband

hope you are getting him back soon

[medicswife]

20. Yeah, it keeps me from getting too damned complacent

this time around. Last time I thought that there was no way he'd end up back over there because I was sure Kerry was going to win. So, I only donated once, I was in Germany, so I couldn't go canvas or anything, but I didn't bother to talk to others about registering and making sure they voted. Not this time. This time I'm working my ass off.

[seabeyond]

25. fuckin bush

kerry won. stolen.

[medicswife]

32. I know. I think so too.

Fucking machines in Ohio and all the other shady ass shit they pulled disenfranchising people and so on. I was thinking about that election today while I was making dinner for the kids and remembering how I kept getting up all night long to go and refresh my browser to see how the precinct/state reporting was going. It was horrible.

[seabeyond]

43. i was in the panhandle of texas

around repugs all over. i could feel a kerry win. there was no excitement for bush. they could feel the kerry win. i had a friend down from colorado. it was about 7 at night, and felt the shift. it was after they had the interview of the bush family in the yellow room, and he said something, i dont remember, and i knew then.... they had stolen it. i watched nv nm co and iowa all shift.

for sure tx and nm were stealing votes. the machines wouldnt let people vote for kerry. 2,3,4 times they would try to correct it and the kerry vote went to bush. started earlier voting and went on doing it, and reported thru election day

to this day people are not bothered by it. to me, it is so outrageous

so i am not worried how obama is running his campaign. people dont like mccain. i dont care what the polls say, we know from 2004 they are being manipulated to favor repug.... it is that we have to win enough, they cant steal enough

[FrenchieCat]

13. Oh....I'm sorry about your hubby not being there.

That has got to be hard. Stay strong... :hug:

[sniffa]

6. What channel?

[FrenchieCat]

11. CNN.....

I imagine that they will be repeating it off and on most of the weekend.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

7. I hope that millions watched it?

[crazy_vanilla]

8. his wife is the sweetest thing ever

She just looks like a lovely lady.

[samuraiguppy]

9. damn I wish I had cable

is it good enough for me to go over to the common room for my apartment complex and tune in there? (they always have the channel on FOX :puke:

[1corona4u]

14. I'm sure someone will upload it to Youtube.

:-)

[samuraiguppy]

16. I will wait then--

I hate the hassel--but it saves me some money to do without cable. And I know that if I am completely desperate to watch something--I can generally see it...

[Doremus]

45. Go over there and watch it. And whenever you see it on Fix, turn the channel.

[Muttocracy]

18. you can get the audio from cnn.com (but not live video) nt

[samuraiguppy]

39. thanks nt

[1corona4u]

12. I'm glad they told the whole story about Kinnock, and

that they gave people some insight to Bork. Most younger people don't even know who Bork is.

[lady raven]

15. Does anyone know if these will be rerun?

I completely missed them :-(

[Muttocracy]

19. yes, Sunday night. nt

[lady raven]

29. Thank you!

I'll look for it- Thanks!

[Muttocracy]

44. just be prepared - fluff for Palin, innuendo for Biden. sigh. nt

[Sugarcoated]

17. Joe's one of those people

looks better as he gets older. I'm not saying he was a bad looking guy when he was younger, but he's just handsomer as an older man. A humility he didn't have when he was younger.

On edit - they just told the anneurism story, said he was a changed man after that hence the humility.

[Muttocracy]

22. I think he might have seemed cocky to me when he was younger, but he's terrific now - as he's

saying right at this moment - life and death issues with his wife and daughter and himself.

[Sugarcoated]

24. No need to sell me on Joe

I love him. I wrestled with supporting him or Hillary, though suspecting he'd have dropped out before PA. Obama, I hadn't even given a chance at that point.

[Zombie2]

21. You'll be crying when you watch....

Sarah Palin Revealed :cry:

[Top Cat]

23. He is going to be the best VP...

[Sugarcoated]

26. Fuck you Alex Castellanos

and your RW talking points. Biden is a good man, McLame is not a good man. Simple as that.

[jillan]

27. Fuck you CNN!

[1corona4u]

30. I know, what an asshat he was/is..

this was definitely a biased show.

[FrenchieCat]

33. I wrote......

Hatchet Job on Joe, pure and simple.

The poorest man in the Senate is made to come off as a pariah….
While the scariest religious extremist woman picked for the 2nd highest office in the land by a 72 year old 4 time cancer survivor, Ms. Sarah of 5 schools in 5 years for 1 degree, comes off like cotton candy literally wrapped up in a flag.

CNN, owned by Time-Warner corporation failed once again at telling a balanced truth. Why is Biden’s GOP foe, Alex Castellanos, long time CNN resident GOP pundit even in this piece? Why do we care what this operative thinks of Joe Biden?

But this isn’t surprising and in fact is expected by those who took us to war in Iraq, corporate media.

But CNN failed. I’m voting for Obama and Joe in spite of CNN hard work.

[FrenchieCat]

28. Here's the link to tell the SOB who did this hatchet job about himself.

http://siu.blogs.cnn.com/2008/09/13/joe-biden-revealed

[1corona4u]

31. Thanks, going there now...

[jillan]

34. FC - *please* start a thread posting that link.

If you won't do it - I will.

I'm fuming here.

[1corona4u]

35. I think she may be on CNN....

here is what I left for CNN-- I blanked out when I got there, and didn't list all of ther things he has done;

You know, I didn't watch Palin revealed, but everyone is telling me that compared to hers, you made Joe out to be a criminal. I think you took everything about Joe and turned it into something controversial, then left questions about him, on the table deliberately.

You failed to mention his violence against women act, which was extrodinary. You failed to mention the Biden crime bill. I have to think that you must be a republican, since you apparently sugar coated someone with ZERO experience to be a VP-or worse, a heartbeat away from the presidency. But I can honestly say, political parties aside, I would sleep better at night if it were Biden, who was a heartbeat away.....

I think CNN should pull this show, if you can't be balanced in the interest of both candidates.

Very ashamed of you, and CNN for approving this garbage.

[jillan]

40. That was great -

You know - I am really pissed, I mean really pissed.

I need to get out of here and calm down.

How could they do that? Did you see that the person who did the special said they knew nothing about Biden except that he was involved in foreign policy? Shit - they even trashed him on that!

[1corona4u]

42. I just replied to a repuke twit too...said we were losing, and that

CNN was harder on Palin!! Give me a fucking break! Here is what I said to her;

Debra; I don't know where you get your crack, but you are really smoking too much if you think they were hard on Palin. If she's going to be in this race, then she needs to be under the microscope too. She needs to be tough, and stop all the whinning BS. The fact that she is a female does not exclude her from being vetted. Get it?

I don't want this woman anywhere near the WH, and I, as a woman, think she is a danger to all women. CNN failed to ask her one tough question, so I guess you think she should just be alowed to waltz right to the V presidency without any scrutiny. NOT.

You are living in a fantasy world if you think McPalin will win this election, and that's the good news for the dems. You check the polls, and then when you're full, stay with that. That will make the shock of the McPalin loss even more devastating for you. I look forward to that.

[Sugarcoated]

38. DONE

[gblady]

36. yes, the show started out great....

and then took a strong right turn....
I was pissed by the end...

[1corona4u]

41. Why did they have to end with that disgusting right wing hack?
