JOE SCARBOROUGH IS MAKING ME GAG
Edited on Thu Jun-17-04 09:31 PM by powergirl
He is interviewing people from Moveon.org and some Republican organization. Of course he agrees with the Republican guy who claims that F/911 is unpatriotic and is demoralizing to our troops - which, of course, means it should be banned. The moveon.org guy is pretty good because he keeps reminding Joe Dumbass that this is America and we should have differences of opinions, etc.

5. It is important to "Know thy enemy."
I want to know what those losers are up too. It makes my blood boil but I can't help myself! I am amazed how so many of them are total dumbasses - there must be a lot of them considering Bush's "base."

4. Time for Congressional Hearings...
...to weed out and black list all the unpatriotic filth in our country!

All this talk reminds me of the Communist witch hunts of days gone by.

Joe Scarborough thinks he has pulled a quick one...
Spreading the rumor that 100's of movie houses are refusing to show the movie?? He doesn't know that. He is making shit up with the hope that 100's of movie houses will take his advice, if they are conservative bent, and keep the people from seeing this important piece of film-making. They're OK with Rush Limbaugh propaganda spread to our troops in Iraq but somehow, this is dangerous for AAmericans to see??

6. Turn it off for your own sanity
Why torture yourself? You are braver than I. I am afraid I would have to smash my TV if I were watching.

He just walked out of the room and told me to let him know when "The Daily Show" comes on.

7. Talk about your free advertising
This should be more effective than buying ads.

Thanks, Joe.

10. Now Joe Dumbass is showing Cheney whining about the NYTimes
Joe said "the usually tight lipped Bush Administration" is complaining. Cheney said the NY Times should not have said that the president's claim that saddam and al quaeda are linked IS A LIE. Oh dear, don't turn the lights on, we'll all see the cockroaches. I hate them so very very much. :puke:

11. When did MM ever wish for more Americans to come home in body bags?
I flat out don't believe that one.

So what happens on Joe's show?

That's right.

He repeats the lie.

unfuckingbelievable!

12. Undoubtedly, it was probably PART of a sentence
For example, maybe MM said "the Americans will be completely outraged and the atrocities and torture that the Americans will suffer at the hands of the Iraqis will make the public WISH FOR MORE AMERICANS TO COME HOME IN BODY BAGS.

So, he probably only quoted the part in all caps.

13. It looks like Joe is going to whine every night on his show about F/911
Edited on Thu Jun-17-04 10:26 PM by cat_girl25
I guess he is like the Geraldo Rivera during the bogus impeachment. Geraldo spoke almost nightly about that and how he made it obvious he was defending Clinton. Joe is on the other side now and defending Bush, no matter what he does.

Well at least with Clinton, it was a vast right wing conspiracy. With Joe, they just don't want to see the facts.

15. My letter to Scarborough Country:
This show p*ssed me off so badly. Scarborough mentioned that Hezbollah has said they support the film and he posed a question to the gentleman from Move on about whehter or not it bothers him that Hezbollah is supporting the film. He came right out and said that basically anyone supporting the film is in alignment with the terrorists. I fired off the following comments to the show:

I just finished watching Scarborough Country this evening with coverage of Michael Moore's film "Fahrenheit 9/11". I was outraged at the disgusting comparison made by the host to anyone supporting the film and terrorism. I want to make it very clear to you that while I am very interested in seeing this film and I am convinced that every American needs to see this film, I am certainly NOT a terrorist or a terrorist sympathizer and your comparison is very insulting to me.

In complete contrast with the opinion that you have, I am a concerned American who is watching my country be destroyed by a combination of terrorism and a government that is slowly but surely being proved to be incompetent. Just because I feel that we, as Americans, deserve to know the truth about how our government is handling this war in Iraq and the war on terror, does NOT in any way, shape or form equate me to Hezbollah or any terrorist faction. Despite the fact that you are most certainly politically motivated in your comments, I am relatively sure that you are intelligent people and that you can see for yourselves that we most certainly have problems in our own government. It is becoming more and more apparent that this administration is profiting from these wars. It is also becoming more and more apparent that this administration has kept hidden from us an enormous amount of information. About 6 months ago, I knew absolutely NOTHING about Dick Cheney having ties to Halliburton or the fact that our government had made allowances to fly members of Bin Laden's family out of our country after September the 11th. I had come across some information on the internet accidentally which I thought was just rediculous leftist propaganda. I am sad to say that a great abundance of information that I thought was nothing more than propaganda has turned out to be absolutely true and I feel that it is irresponsible of the media to have kept this information covered up for so long.

Now that the truth is coming out, we have people like your host comparing truth seekers to terrorists. Well, let me give you a little lesson in politics. Our government is comprised of people that WE elect and that are in their positions because WE put them there and WE pay them to do their job and anything this government does is done in OUR name. I want to be assured that my government is doing right by me and I have every right to question and every right to disagree and furthermore, I have every right to watch a documentary about it. That does NOT make me a terrorist NOR does it make me unpatriotic and for you to say so or even to hint at something so horrible is a great example of gross misconduct. I don't think I have ever been so insulted in my lifetime as I was by your broadcast this evening.

17. I all ready ordered my F-911 tickets in advance :o)
I can't wait to go see it. Me and my GF are giddy with excitement at getting to see this movie. Since the Right-Wing greedy, angry, selfish, murdering, compassionless, simple-minded, ass-kissing, sheep-like whores are rallying against the movie, my excitement level is going up dramatically!!

These guys are not only simple-minded, but they are very suggestable.

I wrote to Mr. Angry (O'Homo) at Fox and told him that his sort of harsh rheteric would lead to civil war and the next night he was talking about civil war.

I later wrote a letter comparing them to nazi's and now they are calling liberals nazi's.

Organize a lot of people and send hundreds of letters telling them that they are purple-colored and the next day they will be rallying against all liberals being purple colored.

The "use irony" approach they have been using for years was very effective - too bad we figured it out a long time ago!!

21. Creepy Larry Sabato ("political analyst")
was just one saying he thought Ron Reagan was anti-Bush* because he was jealous (after all, W* followed in HIS father' footsteps). Right. What other reason could anyone have for despising Bush*

22. Yeah, that's why I hate Bush, because I'm Jealous, yeah, that's the ticket
It has nothing to do with Bush taking months of vacation, sending our boys to be killed for a war to make Bush and his friends rich. Jealous my ass.
