3. That's right Tuckerfucker...we let it happen
We let it happen by not having enough seats in the government to vote against it. Just like the guy that gets mugged at gunpoint - he lets it happen by not getting shot, so in actually he's working to get mugged.

4. He's a bratty little boy pretending to be a TV personality.
Please don't watch him but if you must, don't take him seriously! ;-)

5. Ah yes, the powerless Dems are responsible for everything.
STFU, Tuckie. And I hope you and are the first one voted off the dance floor!

6. He's right. They did.
I felt completely without a voice in late 2002 and early 2003 as the war drum beat louder and louder. Very few Dems voted against the war. There were essentially no questions asked.

9. That is true.
However, everyone was lied to regarding the intelligence.
Nobody knew about the DSM.
It is only now that we know definitively that our leaders were deliberately and maliciously lied to to go to war.

28. I respectfully disagree.
Sorry, but I do hold them responsible. I did not hear hardly anyone asking the tough questions. They didn't question the evidence. They didn't scream from the mountain tops that the inspectors were saying as loudly as they could that there were no WMD.

I knew then and they should have known as well.

35. And I remember all of the (202) phone calls that I made to Senators
and reps., and the letters, e-mails that I wrote prior to the vote on the IWR, begging them to vote NO. Not just the Dems, but to the RANKING, MAJORITY REBULICANS in the house and senate.

So no, F*#@^& Carlson, don't try to pen this Iraqnam fiasco on Dems!!!

8. What was all that crap I read about Tucker being against the war?
He's obviously in love with Bush's bullshit war.

12. If there was EVER any doubt that MSNBC was partisan
that can be laid to rest NOW.
All day they have been foretelling the Dems taking over with dire results...like it is the worst thing in the world.
I wish Olbermann would go where the real news is...Comedy Central. That in itself it pitifully sad.
He is too good for these fuckers. They don't deserve him.

10. Boxer's for a military base in iraq WHAT!!!!!!
Tucker asked her twice on whether we need a military base permanently in iraq and she said yes. She was doing good until that question came up.

15. No, she said "In the area"
She did not say we should have a base within Iraq.

11. I have fantasies of Tucker's bowtie starting to whirl like a chopper blade
It keeps speeding up until he's actually lifted from his chair. As the rpms increase, he's carried out into space and eventually arrives at the planet from which these Republican aliens invaded us.

18. Why yes he does
Which is why I think she needs to be replaced.
And I agree...anyone that isn't there to do the job of representing the people needs to be given a one-way ticket out of Washington.
I'm tired of these asses getting rich off of our backs by prostituting our values and votes for their personal gain.

19. WTF does he know? This little Toad-Boy got where he is because his
Daddy was a big-shot on PBS and a huge Repug contributor.

He's about the most useless commentator on television. Needs a good kick in the arse.

20. How many times do we have to point out ....




that for at least the last six years the rethugs have owned all branches of the government. The House, the Senate, Judicial Branch and the (comical) Executive Branch.



That would have made it awfully difficult for any party other than the rethugs to be guilty of "allowing" anything to happen.


Maybe Bowtie Boy is just warming up his lame arguments for November and he forgot to look at the calendar, not realizing he was too early.

29. Freeper logic
They also blame Clinton for not doing enough to find Osama because he was distracted by Monicagate. Yet, THEY were the ones who yelled "wag the dog" when he did!:crazy:

31. But, they did!
Without the IWR passing, Warchimp couldn't have launched this stupid thing to begin with.

Yes, they were given lies and terrible intel on which to base that vote, but at some point you have to take responsibility for your vote anyway...and study ways to change your data collecting process so we "won't be fooled again".

34. Who could stop you, Tucker? You wouldn't allow anyone to get in your
way. What are you going to do when we prove that 9/11 was part of a Repub plan to get us to fight in Iraq? What then?
