crossfire is hot today

[cheshire]

Carville just offered 300 thousand for one person who say Bush in Alabama.

[michigandem2]

1. fill us in! I am at work..

[cheshire]

3. Carville keeps bringing it up. 300 thousand to anyone who say 8

[MissB]

6. It's Bowtie versus the Ragin Cajun

And Jim Dyke, RNC communications director, and Ann Lewis, Kerry advisor.

Bowtie tried to say that Kerry only wants to talk about Vietnam and that he doesn't want to talk about the issues. Lewis passed Bowtie Kerry's book and said while they aren't terribly interesting, Kerry is talking about the issues.


The RNC guy, btw, isn't exactly a fireball.

10. This type of post is very irritating

WHY do you say it is "hot?" Don't just clutter up the page damn it, give some details or don't post at all. I'm very grumpy today, sorry to take it out on you, but so many people waste time and space while bumping valuable posts off the front page with this kind of nothingness. Geez.

2. I thought all DU posters had taken the pledge...

to DESCRIBE what's going on in TV shows when they POST about them.

:P

On edit: thanks for adding the info :)

[michigandem2]

4. yeah I read that too...it would be nice if we got the detail...

wish I could be watching but would be nice if you guys who are could share with the group...

[elperromagico]

7. Well, there's a guy on TV with no hair. He's got a green tie on.

He's wearing glasses and talking to a guy with a rose-colored tie on. Somebody's clapping.

Does that help? :D

[cheshire]

11. LOL

[TexasSissy]

43. LOL LOL

[cheshire]

16. Thanks for letting me know you tend to be negative first. OH and thanks

for the support. Not

[A_Possum]

You do it a lot

So it was a little reminder.

[cheshire]

25. Some will turn it on that is why I do that. You are not the only one just

one that can't turn on their TV and expect someone on her to give you news.

[A_Possum]

30. I don't have cable

And many people have expressed their frustration with that kind of thread, in which a person implies that a show is very interesting but doesn't take time to say why. Just take an extra 30 seconds to say why.

[cheshire]

41. If I wait to type enough folks miss to much. Did you get the just of the

show while reading these posts. If you are patient it will come. Sorry you don't have cable but you jump in my shit too soon. It all came out, in spite of anything you or I did.

[Trajan]

42. Why post something if not to communicate a message ? ...

Maybe you can just point to the TV from your sofa ....

[KharmaTrain]

5. 300,000 $20 Bills....

300,000 x $20.00 = $60,000.

Hell, maybe some of us at DU can kick this up a couple more bucks. $75 grand, 100 grand anyone?

[MissB]

9. Actually, that is 6 million, isn't it?

Me thinks Carville isn't very good at math. Must be why he was getting some loud gaffaws from the audience.

[GiovanniC]

13. Actually, Wouldn't 300,000 x 20 be 6,000,000?

I think James's math might be off a bit.

[spooky3]

17. self-deleted dupe

[swag]

20. 300,000 x $20.00 = $60,000?

Knock it off with the freeper math, already.

[MissB]

22. Seriously, Carville was claiming someone could earn 300,000 $20 bills.

He screwed up the math, not the poster.

[TrueAmerican]

21. 300,000 x $20 = $6,000,000

that's SIX MILLION DOLLARS MAN

[cheshire]

26. Thanks for the correction.

[cheshire]

8. This stuff goes to fast for me to type it all sorry I'm doing the best I

can. Guard memos. real or fake. More $ for expert to say this war was anything but a war on terrorism.

[gratuitous]

12. By my count, that's . . .

$300,000 from Carville, $50,000 from the Texans for Truth, and $10,000 from Garry Trudeau. A nice, round $360,000 and an irresistible chance for a pun.

[MissB]

15. I don't think Carville was actually offering the money

I think he just couldn't do the math.

There is currently $60k out there, right - so that would be 3000 $20 bills.

[cheshire]

29. He did make his point though.

[AuntPatsy]

14. A woman obviously from Kerry's camp said to the pannel,

you said that Kerry is not showing us anything about the issues and she pulls out a book and says here is a book in which Kerry outlines his stradegy concering many issues.

The little guy with the red bow tie, dang cannot recall his name smiled and said, I read that book and it is so boring?, the woman came back with, thats the problem people dont seem to want to talk about the issues that matter, something like that... Hmm, first he says Kerry does not have a plan and than he admits to reading Kerry's plan?

[GiovanniC]

23. My Response to Tucker's Comments, If I Was There

TUCKER: That is the most boring book I've ever read.

ME: You only think that because it doesn't have pictures. Get a life. Is he laying out his policy or is he writing an action-adventure novel?

[LisaLynne]

28. What kind of a response is that from Tucker?

Asshat.

[GiovanniC]

38. Another Possible Response To Tucker:

"Well, Tucker, you're right... it's no 'My Pet Goat' or anything..."

[cheshire]

31. I believe his name is Pucker. hurlsome.

[GiovanniC]

18. Idiot Republican About Whether Iraq Has Made US Safer

"Look, there's two ways of thinking about this. You can wait for the terrorists to attack you at home, or you can bring the fight to the terrorists."

MY RESPONSE: Or, apparently, you can take George W. Bush's mysterious "third option", which includes attacking a country that had nothing to do with the terrorists.

[riverwalker]

24. then Carville offers money

for the rnc dipstick to come up with ONE terrorism expert (not in administration) who says we are safer after the invading Iraq. He can't name any....

[gratuitous]

27. Right to the heart of it, Carville

Name ONE terrorism expert outside the administration who says we're safer. That is, name one expert whose bread and butter doesn't depend on kissing Shrub's ass who will say what Shrub says. Can't do it. No way. Not a chance.

[faithnotgreed]

33. thats it. right there. and not just about terrorism either but every issue

[greenbriar]

36. damn,

our motel doesn't get CNN and I love the ragin cajin

[NC_Nurse]

32. I don't have cable

so I appreciate when y'all give me the scoop on these shows...

But I also understand that many of these posts are simply to alert people that something is on that they might want to watch.

So I guess I can't start a flame war. Damn! :D

[cheshire]

35. Thank you for your understanding and patience. Must be the nurses life.

[NC_Nurse]

39. Oh, I thought you were talking to me

OOPS!
Yep, nursing is all about understanding.

And I don't feel martyred about my lack of cable, I chose to turn that shit off! Too much money and shit for programs.

It was making me hate America! :D

[cheshire]

34. I'm sorry if you can't watch TV I post this way so those who can will be

able to. I do plan on discussing it and do go back. I spend to much time defending myself and will no longer do so. If you give me crap well that is just your tough shit. You lose. I am sick of getting crap from my side. I can get that from rethugs so keep your crap to yourself. Don't read it if you are so overcome with grief.

[NC_Nurse]

37. I was joking.

Lighten up.

And I SAID I appreciated the details you were giving.

I was kidding because I rarely get involved in flame wars on DU. I actually see both sides of this problem.

And I don't really care that much either... truth be known.

[cheshire]

40. I wasn't talking to you then, just in general to all above. You were great

I was talking to those you are negative. Please don't think I have anything against you I don't.

[buycitgo]

44. thanks for all the details

what's that CNN transcript URL again?

http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/

[faithnotgreed]

45. thank you diehard. i appreciate you trying to type out

all the details as they run by very quickly on tv

its hard isnt it?!! oh well, we just all do the best we can eh

thanks again
