Grover Norquist is on MSNBC....

I don't think I've ever seen him before, just heard OF him.

I just clicked on...don't know who the young lady is debating him.

But he is absolutely APPALLING.

His arrogance rivals Cheney's.

:puke:

4. He's younger than I expected...

I've heard of him so much over the last few years but never took the time to see what he looked like; never saw him on TV until today either.

Wow....he really combines all the negatives of both Cheney and Rove.

2. "union goons"...
and talking about how only liberals need "leaders" -- conservatives are independent thinkers and don't need leaders, in response to the young lady's question about who is leading the Republicans now.

:puke: again

6. I love it when they attempt to distort reality by exactly 180 degrees
Norquist really is the perfect leader for their party. He's 100% un-reality.

3. Are you serious?
He's the neocon who wants government's role shrunk into the size of a bathtub.
Grover is batshit crazy...he's to the right of Attila the Hun.

He seemed rather unsettled in that interview.

7. I know who he is...but I had never seen him before today

From what he's written, I know he's batshit crazy. I guess I didn't expect him to actually come across as batshit crazy. Thought he'd hide it better. LOL

Silly me....Palin has given everyone the freedom to let their batshit craziness show for the world to see.

I'd rather that than hiding it and feigning decency.

14. He'll probably be on CSpan's Washington Journal tomorrow,
Saturday or Sunday? The cable companies love that right wing hack

13. That's about right for him,
dude hates government so much, he decided to make a living off of it.

"No Tax" Nordquist has been part of pretty much every Republican Administration since Reagan.

5. Ah, Grover Norquist
What a pig. I can't say what I really think on a public forum. I have hated him for a long time.

9. I kept trying to think of a word that wouldn't get me slammed....
Edited on Thu Aug-13-09 10:52 AM by OneGrassRoot
here for one reason or another, and there just isn't one I can use for him. Anything we've ever called Cheney and Rove most certainly apply to this dude.

He's Rove's mentor though, right? I guess that's why I thought he'd be older...



On edit: "wouldn't" instead of "would" get me slammed...lol

10. The thing about Norquist and all the "small goverment" types
Edited on Thu Aug-13-09 10:54 AM by Jennicut
is that they really don't want small govt. at all, just small govt. for anyone but them and what they value (the military and big corps). Its all a lie really.

11. Virtually no countering/debunking his stream of lies.
How many times did he say "government takeover of healthcare"?

Which polls is he citing that say "they" are in the large majority?

Nothing much in rebuttal except Carlos apologizing for not giving him more time.

12. Really need to thank him for
pressuring the rethug legislators here in California to take the 'no new taxes' pledge. Enjoy it while you can, you asswipe! That 2/3 budget vote is going the way of the dinosaurs next year.
