WTF is with Hartmann today?

Usually this is the guy I go to for inspiration, and all he's doing is pure negative crap all day.

I KNOW there are problems, but give me a fucking break...

1. I stopped listening to him a few weeks ago because of his
attitude about the election. I'm glad I'm not listening today.

3. Maybe I'll give Franken a try today.
I'm in a positive mood, and Hartmann was bringing me down BIG TIME...

5. Hartman?
I'm in the SF Bay Area and our schedules have been changed. I don't get Randi anymore. She used to be on in the afternoon, then she was on til 6. Last night she wasn't on. I used to be able to hear Franken at my lunch time....no more. Hartman isn't too bad, but I really miss Franken and Randi

9. What the hell is the matter with documenting the truth?
Edited on Tue Nov-07-06 02:31 PM by springhill
Hide your goddamn head in the sand and pretend that there isn't sytematic and widespread voter suppressions and fraud going. Yes, he is doing what every goddamn democrat should be doing, and that's making sure that if this election is stolen people are not going to take it lying down. I totally agree with Hartmann and Mark Crispin Miller. We need to talk about it and let people know that unless they make it obvious, by going and voting in record numbers, and making the exit polls so on-sided, that they will be able to again steal another election. The more people realize the consequences of not voting, the more people will vote. Rather than being a turn-off from voting, it will get the masses to get out there so that if the results are abviously not what the exit polls predict, there will be an outcry.

And rather than being negative, as you say, I get great inspiration from his call to stand up and fight if this election again is stolen like it was in 2000, 2002 and 2004. Thank God, he is not like Franken, and frankly many of the posters who would rather ignore the issues than hit it head-on.
