Tweety beating up on Grover Norcrist

[CatWoman]

a thing to behold :rofl:

[sharp_stick]

1. Is that squeaky voiced little puke

actually present? He's submitting his marching orders from so far behind the scenes I'm starting to think he's like the Wizard of Oz.

[CatWoman]

4. bwahahahaha

he asked Tweety "can I talk"??

Tweety: "NO"

:rofl:

[malaise]

13. There's only one way to destroy Grover

Billboards with the following
Grover Norquist wants to shrivel government down to the size of his dick!

[CatWoman]

14. LOLOLOL!!!!

:rofl:

[malaise]

15. He'd run for cover

:rofl:

[rhett o rick]

16. Pour salt on him and see him turn into slime. nm

[Rosco T.]

2. Really, Tweety is definately showing his Left Side today...

.. nicely done.

[malaise]

3. Excellent

What an asshole :rofl:

[tridim]

5. I'm upset he didn't mention anything about drowning in a bathtub

Or ask if his pledge would apply at a zero tax rate.

But it was a pretty good smackdown overall.

[kentuck]

6. It's great when they get slapped up the side of the head with facts!

Chris did a great job with that "interview"!

[AngryOldDem]

7. If he gets asked tough questions, he'll fold.

He was on NPR's Diane Rehm Show on Thursday. She tried to pin him down on what he would cut in government -- i.e., which departments he would cut in order to make meaningful changes -- and he would not answer the question. She asked the question bluntly about three times. No answer. So even **he** knows that some things in government cannot be cut, and that sometimes biting the bullet with higher taxes is in order to keep things running.

I am astounded that someone like Grover Norquist has the power through that pissant little "pledge" of his to hold the government hostage and potentially bring it down.

[Atman]

12. Here is why his "pissant little pledge" is so powerful...

Political advertising. The moment one of the weasels breaks "the pledge," our agency will blanket his district with advertising calling him a flip-flopper and a liar. They're still scared shitless of "No new taxes" and what it did to Bush. Why they signed it in the first place is anyone's guess, but the fact is, it's politics. They are just plain chicken shit. What I say is, if you can't take the heat...fuck off and get out of politics. And maybe just govern instead of playing these games.

[AngryOldDem]

19. Exactly!

I think that probably most in the GOP know what has to be done, but they're too damned scared of losing their jobs to do it. You're right -- this just shows how fucked up politics is anymore.

And I don't understand why they signed it in the first place, either -- sometimes tough decisions have to be made and signing a promise like that -- basically betting against the unknown as well as common sense -- is just plain foolish. If the debt ceiling isn't raised on the 2nd, a lot of folks in the hinterlands will wake up on the 3rd wishing that it had. And they can thank their protector and defender Grover for whatever happens after that.

[A Simple Game]

24. Everyone that signs his pledge should be asked if his pledge is more

important than the well being of America.

[RaleighNCDUer]

8. It warms the heart to see someone giving Norquisling his comeuppance. nt

[Vinca]

9. That was amazing. Finally they're going after the weasel.

All Republicans should be quizzed about their loyalty to Norquist over the country.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

11. Now, *THAT* is the question of the century!!! +1,000,000!!! n/t

[tularetom]

10. Glad to see it but I'm not convinced

Next week he'll be getting tingles up his leg over that moron Texas governor that wants to run for president after he prays a lot.

[rhett o rick]

17. IMO Chris plays the side he thinks will help him the most. nm

[rhett o rick]

18. There is no truth to the rumor that SS recipients want to drown Norcrist in a bathtub. nm

[ProfessorGAC]

22. Oh, Yes There Is

And there's a bunch of people who don't receive SS payments that want that, too.

Here's what i've heard: He doesn't know anything. He has NO power. He's a puppet who is getting paid handsomely to be the messenger boy. He CAN'T back down now because he is getting paid WAY above his pay grade with no discernable skills or knowledge.

He is NOT the one holding people to the pledge. He's just a front man pulling in a paycheck.

He's a eunuch.

20. SEGMENT COMING BACK UP AFTER THE BREAK :)

[nadinbrzezinski]

21. Yes, yes it was

Tweety is scared of what the radicals are doing.

[KittyWampus]

23. Norquist says Obama is having a hissy fit over tax increases. Tweety "that's how we're talking now?"

"What's a hissy fit"?

[SharonAnn]

25. I had that question, too, after I moved to Atlanta. "What's a hissy fit?"

The Atlanta receptionist couldn't believe I didn't know. Guess she'd never met a Yankee before.

Anyway, it's a southern thang.
