Malloy Talking Election Fraud - Caution Most Cynical
Tune in to AAR if you want to hear some more election fraud info from Mike Malloy. Be warned, though, he's feeling very cynical tonight - doesn't believe we have a prayer in hell of getting a Senator to join the objection on Thursday, and he's lamenting the fascist government we're stuck with for the next 4 years. Might be a bummer of a listen, but maybe a caller will shed a little optimsim on MM?

15. I too love Mike. He is the real deal and he takes no prisoners in his
rants. He is really down on the Senators joining in the contesting of the electors tonight though. He just doesn't think it'll happen. I hope they prove him wrong this once. Things are different in 2004, last time I don't think anyone could imagine how horrific a * presidency was going to be. Now they know. Let's hope they do something about it.

3. Without trying to make people mad, MM is probably right.
The "establishment" of the Democratic Party is totally out of touch with its base.

4. Why don't you expand on that and give us specific reasons why you say so.
nd at the same time, let us know how you connect this line of thought with the thread topic, which was about being depressed/cynical over whether a senator will stand up on Thursday, and being stuck with a fascist bunch of thugs for leaders for the next 4 years.

10. even better,
Edited on Mon Jan-03-05 11:12 PM by GreenArrow
why don't you tell us how the Democratic Party establishment IS in touch with its base. I'm not sure the Democratic party even knows what its base is, other than moneyed interests. The poster that you saw fit to disparage was making a perfectly reasonable response, completely related to the thread topic. It seems pretty clear that the poster is "depressed/cynical over whether a senator will stand up on Thursday, and being stuck with a fascist bunch of thugs for leaders for the next 4 years."

I tend to be skeptical too, even if a Senator does stand up; I guess we'll have a better idea of where things are going when Thursday comes.

12. where did you come from?
I dont have any interest, right now, in debating with you 2 on whether or not the Dem party is in touch with constituents. It seems to me only marginally related to the thread topic and has nothing to do with 2004 election fraud issues.

14. Touchy, touchy, touchy! Sheesh.. lighten up!
What, a person can't even have a comment anymore around here.

I'm depressed too but I happen to be a believer. But please let's not all just automatically assume we are defending ourselves from a GOP mole that is dispoiling our sacred DU, for god sake!

You just sound touchy and inflexible. IMHO!

5. Now he's backing down a little - saying that he's not telling
anyone not to try calling Senators, that everything helps, but that he can't stand hearing that Senators are waiting to see if there's really anything to stand up for. This really pisses him off 'cause they're acting like 4 year olds. Now, he's off on another rant about this!

6. Now, he says what he's really doing is preparing himself
emotionally for the let-down on Thursday.

17. Dutchman...you truly are LOST.. and so is the truth about MM on your post
Back at the last corner, you turned left when you shouldda turned right.

Mike Malloy ROCKS, and he's cynical right now because he believes so deeply and passionately in the fight he is waging against fascism.

Get real.

18. Re-Education Camps for Conservatives?
Sorry, but I have a hard time dealing with someone demanding that anyone be sent to camps run by Pol-Pot even in jest. MM lost my respect and interest at that point.

21. Great idea. Pick something you don't like, and toss the baby w/ the bath
water. Don't read many books all the way through, do you?

If you don't see the big picture around Mike Malloy, then you just don't see too well.

:kick:

8. He is bitter, acerbic, cynical, angry, and sarcastic just about always
but I still enjoy listening to him.
Wouldn't take his opinion on this as prophetic or anything.

9. I really wish that I could get my call through to him tonight
Yes. He's right about the party establishment. But, He's missing the point. The party establishment is not the party. The people are the party. People who wouldn't have voted Democratic in the first place if they were'nt good people. People who care.
He's probably right. We have terrible odds. BUT, WE DO HAVE A CHANCE!
If nothing comes of it Thursday, here's what we do have. The connections and alliances formed here will go on.
What we are seeing,if nothing else, is the foundation,the beginnings, of the resistance,the underground, if you will.

11. Malloy just had a caller (8:28 p.m.) CA time who said he
has an unconfirmed report that a Senator is going to challenge, and will make a statement in the morning. The caller's name was Jim. So there's some hope.

19. Listening to Mike on rebroadcast on my local affiliate.
I love Mike; Mike's rant on election fraud on Nov. 3rd brought me to this struggle. Unfortunately I believe that Mike's right, and we won't see anyone in the senate taking a stand against the stolen election. The democratic senators are acting like a bunch of pussies. People calling in to the show are saying that the responses they are getting when they call in to their democratic senators is running along the lines of "well we're waiting to see what everybody else does, well we're looking into it, well we'll see"...that's a bunch a bullshit. I think Mike is right, though I'll wait with whatever blind hope I can muster until Jan. 6th to see it for myself.

It is a blessing or a curse when someone says "May you be born in interesting times".

20. I dunno. I like Mike
But he's really depressed right now. Maybe he should play 'The Shining' or 'Citizen Kane' instead when he gets this fatalistic.

Get better Mike - Undo the Coup!
