Hey Tweety, I know you're 'slumming' over here...
Edited on Sat Sep-27-08 09:32 PM by PCIntern
you've given out a few clues over the years on your mediocre interrupt-fest, Hardball. I've heard you quote DUers verbatim without giving proper credit or annotation, but that's neither here nor there...

You were railing on the other night that Obama was, because he was wearing cool sunglasses, acting 'elite' and too cool. Well, you dumb putz, he IS cool - he's hip, he's brilliant, he's funny, he's sharp, he's successful, and maybe, just maybe, he's on the cusp of being elected President of these United States.

You on the other hand, are a mediocre former-speechwriter, former-confidant, former-up-and-coming TeeVee hysteric. That last qualification was eliminated when Keith trumped your 9 of spades with charisma and real on-air talent which consists not only of claiming to have perspective, but that he actually has a sense of humor which you lack utterly. Of courses, you pretend to have one, but your explosive laugh is unsettling and absurdist, but I digress again.

You are thinking of running for Senator in My Commonwealth, the state which you call 'home'. You list the cliches of Pennsylvania: Tastykake, South Philly, Frank Rizzo, Bill Green, Bill Green's father, Bill Green's son, Pat's Steaks, Soft Pretzels, and Rocky Balboa. We're real impressed, let me tell you.

You may stop sticking your finger in the air, and pretending to be objective: you're a tear-down artist of the first order, you're annoying: you ask questions and when the poor guest attempts to answer, you re-phrase the question and talk over him or her. Periodically you assail a McCain or other Republican spokesperson, but you do it to gain the confidence of your left-wing audience, which is diminishing in numbers fairly rapidly. You then do a 180 degree turn and say something stupid, like the sunglass crack. Why don't you mention that McCain called his wife an unspeakable word, or that in your 60 or so years, I bet you've never met anyone who went to 6 schools in order to receive a B.A. as Palin apparently did. Let's have some real 'reportage', huh? You're going to be running as a Democrat I hear, and we shall not forget nor shall we forgive your transgressions here.

Your friend,

PCIntern

1. Well, now... that was mean.
Personally, I like the guy. I don't always like what he says, but that's ok. He's very entertaining, and when the man is on, there's hardly anyone else like him, lol.

Lighten up just a wee bit:)

3. Opinions vary...
it's not 'mean', it's all true. I defy you to contradict one point.

His remark about Obama's dress and deportment last night was outrageous...he felt he had to say somethign since McSmear was without question, acting like a real S.O.B.

2. Looking for cotton to stuff in my ears...
...as Tweey will inevitably interrupt and yell over you. Yich. Enough of Tweety and company and their pseudo-bullying tactics. Or is it strategy? In what respect, Tweety?

6. His finger is in the wind and he is testing the waters, for sure.
And he reps Pennsylvania harder than Dick Durbin, Barack Obama, and Rahm Emanuel put together rep Illinois.

If he wants respect, he will need to earn it.

7. when he was going..
off on Obama yesterday about connecting with white voters, I had to fire off an email and ask him why he thought white people were so stupid. I'm good about staying away from all of them, but the debate nights seem to suck me in. It only serves to piss me off. I never learn.
