Tucker is destroying Towey

[malaise]

re Bush duping the Fundies - Damn this is funny.

[Nimrod2005]

1. Who is Towey?

[malaise]

2. David Kuo's former boss.

He's defending Bush's record with the Fundies. Tucker asked him why Bush never never addressed the pro-lifers.

3. ?

4. LOL, that's what I thought too

I was just waiting for him to get high.

9. This COULD backfire.

This could end with a push to get a real, far-right wingnut elected.

President Alan Keyes and Vice President Fred Phelps? Secretary of State James Dobson?

5. If that ? is wondering this is about . . .

. . . a new book written by the aforementioned David Kuo reports that the Bush regime has been cynically using Christian fundamentalists for political gain with no real commitment to their agenda. The book says theat Karl Rove privately speaks of Christian fundamentalists in dispariging terms.

Tucker Carlson, to his credit, has dutifully reported this and appears to accept Kuo's thesis.

7. You haven't watched Keith Olbermann this week

He had extensive discussions on the book two nights straight.

6. Hopefully the book will fly off the shelves... LOL

Rove to David Kuo: "Start up one of those fucking faith based things"

Someone mentioned that the book went from #350 to #18 on Amazon as of yesterday. It's still moving, and is now at #13 !!

8. If this is true it's the first thing in the past six years that

made me have any positive thoughts about rove, bush or any of them but if they laugh at the ignorant fundies, for once I agree with them. They need to come out and fess up to it publicly.

10. My thought exactly!

I also put worrying about Armageddon on the back burner after hearing this. Really, these guys are too greedy to try and end it all. Peace, KIm

11. This really makes me angry, why is St. Vincents letting this guy defend

Bush? Why did they ever hire him in the first place?

This was my family's church and many of them are buried at St. Vincent's cemetery. I don't approve of this Bush apologist running the place.
