2. James Carville is a world class piece of shit and a first rate whore
Fuck him.

And any Dem who trusts him.

If you are lobbying for Scooter fucking Libby, you are OUT of the Democratic Party as far as I'm concerned.

I'm sure that there are plenty of convicted felons that worry about the welfare of their loved ones. We get it.


James Carville is part and parcel of this criminal regime.

Just as other so-called pundits have to occasionally acknowledge their bias. Pay more attention.

34. I am a Hillary fan! My concern is that she is being used liked Kerry
was used in the last election.

See information in this link....
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x1047237

There have been several posts about Carville in the last six months and all of them point to what a snake he is.


I mentioned it on another thread yesterday and I was corrected.
The poster told me that he is not on her "official staff" but he is
helping her.

With help like Carville,she doesn't need any more enemies.

I was one of his biggest fans when he ran President Clinton's campaign. Not now!

6. And did Scooter stop to think about Valerie Plame's children?
I think not. James Carville did not need to sign that letter. It is written by his wife. My husband signs greeting cards that I wrote on occasion -- but are you kidding? Carville is such a panderer, such a sycophant. Did you see the movie about his interference in Bolivian politics? I do not trust Carville. He talks like a Democrat every once in a while, but he doesn't walk like a Democrat. Did his money go to his head?

Carville should have been a hedge fund manager. No matter which party (stock) prevails in a national election, he wins. Either his wife gets a job in the incoming administration or he does. Now there's devotion to the cause for you. (LOL)

7. If he's so pro family
and mister trick or treat, then tell it to the survivors of Brewster Jennings compromised contacts (over 70 dead by some reports), a million dead Iraqis, and the Wilson's themselves.

This is sentimental shlock. Glad the judge didn't fall for it.

Edited on Tue Jun-05-07 07:14 PM by blm
hope Plame has a few tricks up her sleeve for Matalin.

Fucking Carville was supposed to be on CNN representing DEMOCRATS from 2001-2005. Carville was actually protecting his WAR CRIMINAL WIFE and her fellow criminals.

No wonder Carville was working AGAINST Kerry then, too.

This talk by historian Douglas Brinkley occurred in April 2004:

http://www.depauw.edu/news/index.asp?id=13354

Whom does the biographer think his subject will pick as a running mate? Not Hillary Rodham Clinton. "There's really two different Democratic parties right now: there's the Clintons and Terry McAuliffe and the DNC and then there's the Kerry upstarts. John Kerry had one of the great advantages in life by being considered to get the nomination in December. He watched every Democrat in the country flee from him, and the Clintons really stick the knife in his back a bunch of times, so he's able to really see who was loyal to him and who wasn't. That's a very useful thing in life."

Did Carville Tip Bush Off to Kerry Strategy (Woodward)

By M.J. Rosenberg |

I just came across a troubling incident that Bob Woodward reports in his new book. Very troubling.

On page 344, Woodward describes the doings at the White House in the early morning hours of Wednesday, the day after the '04 election.

Apparently, Kerry had decided not to concede. There were 250,000 outstanding ballots in Ohio.

So Kerry decides to fight. In fact, he considers going to Ohio to camp out with his voters until there is a recount. This is the last thing the White House needs, especially after Florida 2000.

So what happened?

James Carville gets on the phone with his wife, Mary Matalin, who is at the White House with Bush.

"Carville told her he had some inside news. The Kerry campaign was going to challenge the provisional ballots in Ohio -- perhaps up to 250,000 of them. 'I don't agree with it, Carville said. I'm just telling you that's what they're talking about.'

"Matalin went to Cheney to report...You better tell the President Cheney told her."

Matalin does, advising Bush that "somebody in authority needed to get in touch with J. Kenneth Blackwell, the Republican Secretary of State in Ohio who would be in charge of any challenge to the provisional votes." An SOS goes out to Blackwell.

Pulling out the "do it for the chillllddddren" card for Libby is beyond the pale. Though a first-class repug PR flak, it looks like Ms. Matalin wasn't able to persuade the judge in this case. :toast:

As for Carville, my take is that he has to do "whatever" to keep himself in MM's good graces in the marital bed. A lame explanation on my part, but there you have it.

FUCK LIBBY! ROT IN JAIL YOU TURD!

20. Reading this again, I have to ask whether Matalin wasn't the
originator of the scheme to out Plame. This letter could be a plea to Scooter: Remember all the good times we had. Think of my children. Don't take me down with you. This is total tin foil hat. Or is it: Matalin had the motive and the opportunity. Maybe she was the organizer of the outing of Plame. It is quite possible although just a theory.

21. With Carville and the DLCers, "us" means the ruling class and their paid operatives
His affection for Cheney's hitman and scummy prostitute Matalin and his high profile on CNN are no accident. It is how he makes his living. It ought to tell the righty DUers something about the corporatist whore wing of the Democratic Party, but I doubt they will learn that lesson.

30. What about the children of those serving in Iraq? Do the Carvilles and Libbys give them
any thought? As they weep over Libby's being called to account for his lies to the Feds and obstructing a Federal investigation regarding a violation of national security in which he actively participated, do they give any thought to the children who have lost a parent to the war these shits lied the nation into?

41. What kind of man writes about a ten-year-old being raped by a bear?

http://www.amazon.com/Apprentice-Novel-Lewis-Libby/dp/0312284535

“At age ten the madam put the child in a cage with a bear trained to couple with young girls so the girls would be frigid and not fall in love with their patrons. They fed her through the bars and aroused the bear with a stick when it seemed to lose interest.“


Fair or not, I can't shake my perception of this guy as some sort of closet pedophile, amongst everything else.

Grandchildren aren't part of the job, for fuck's sake. If you mean "the grandparents felt selfish, so they dragged their grandchildren with them to some boredom-inducing spot", then say so, Mary. And don't pretend it makes Libby a 'good man'.
