Ed Gillespie MAD at Kerry and Edwards

[Cocoa]

Gillespie went in and out of the conversation between television interviews, his underlined copy of Kerry's speech in his hand. "He just stole the 'Help is on the way' line," he said, referring to a slogan Dick Cheney used during the 2000 G.O.P. Convention. "I mean, they just stole it!"



asked for comment, Kerry and Edwards had this to say...

4. Doesn't Feel Good To Have Things STOLEN, Does It Eddy-Boy ???

19. Payback is a bitch Gillepsie, and so are you.

[Wickerman]

5. Sorry Ed, The line is actually from a bad Little River Band song

of the 70's - so, I guess it was either in public domain as general chatter or they ripped off the Aussie band LLB. Maybe even before that, it might have from the Lassie Show.

So, in short, Ed, fuck off.

[wishlist]

6. Funny- since Kerry/Edwards knew that Cheney sure couldn't use it again

this time around. I'm glad this is getting some publicity since it just emphasizes the Bush/Cheney's failures.

[blm]

7. Cheney stole "It's time for them to go." in 2000. Care to comment, Ed?

8. Perhaps he doesn't realize...

...that the "theft" was completely intentional. It's mocking what Bush/Cheney 2000 said, unless of course by "help" BushCo means "hey military, we're gonna give you something to do, bodies to bury, and have you involved in violations of the Geneva conventions that will make us all less safe and secure"...

15. Exactly. Kerry was responding to a Bush-Cheney slogan. nt

[LiberalEsto]

10. He should take Prozac n/t

[ThePhilosopher04]

11. I didn't realize....

Cheney had a monopoly on common phrases.

[LiberalFighter]

12. Why aren't they complaining about Kerry stealing...

the flag back for the American people?
god back for the American people?
honesty and integrity back for the American people?

[janx]

13. Good points, all. n/t

[spooky3]

23. I hear O'Reilly has a good trademark lawyer.

[JohnLocke]

14. Response

:nopity:

[renegade000]

16. thats not stealing ed, thats called irony

[Aunt Anti-bush]

17. Gillespie, I will steal another famous Cheney slogan:

Go F**K yourself!!!!

[Endangered Specie]

20. rofl

21. Help is on the way *Registered Trademark*

sigh

[beaconess]

22. Right - Coming from the people who stole "No Child Left Behind" from

the Children's Defense Fund and then used it to stomp all over millions of children, this whine is pretty ironic, isn't it?

[Sahjhan]

24. No one can steal words.

[newyawker99]

25. Hi Sahjhan!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[doctorbombeigh]

26. <snicker> Now that's the kind of larceny I can vote for...

and anything that pisses off Gillespie pretty much works for me.
