Anyone watching the repeat of Turley, Tweety and Buchanan

[malaise]

Turley is a seasoned pro.

[spanone]

1. and buchanan is an embarassment...

pat is truly out of his league with mr turley

[malaise]

4. As usual

He's still reliving his heartbreak with Nixon. :puke:

[eleny]

2. Yes, second time here

My comments earlier. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x8369152

Not that your thread is a dupe! Just wanted to say hi and that this is one heck of a segment. :hi:

[malaise]

5. Thanks

I missed the first showing.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

8. That thread .........

I cannot believe the animus against Jonathan Turley because he interpreted the law during the Clinton impeachment.

Someone in that thread actually compared Turley to Bill O'Reilly?

Wow.

Welcome to freerepublic.com........

[Dragonfli]

12. Yes I even tried to point out the absurdity of the comparison.

Fell on deaf ears.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

13. I saw ..........

That's - I'm series!!1111!!! - about the most shocking thing I've seen here at DU.

I'm shaking my head at the absurdity and blindness of it.

You did good.

:toast:

[Dragonfli]

16. TY

[eleny]

20. Yup

I'm just not a "My Party right or wrong" kind of person. Reminds me too much of the Vietnam War days when it was "My country right or wrong". Nuts to both.

Btw, Clinton was an idiot for lying. He should have just told the truth and then told them to get their noses out of his pants.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

28. My favorite:

"America - love it or leave it." And I see it cropping up again today.

I am always confounded by the profound misunderstanding of what democracy means. Or our Constitution.

Like Watergate, the lies got Clinton into trouble, not the original offense. It was an outrage, though, that that fucking suit was permitted to go forward while he was in office. Absolutely wrong, wrong, wrong. But, then I remember how the GOPigs hounded the Clintons for eight damn years.

Remember "Whitewater"? And what came of it?

These same fuckers now want us to lay off on the matter of torture. Incredible. . . . .

[eleny]

34. Agreed - completely

[hlthe2b]

37. Isn't that the truth....

Amazing beyond words, I think....:shrug:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

3. I am

I never watch the 5 pm show, but, for some reason, I did today, and it's so cool watching Turley say, "For the love of God, Pat" to Buchanan when he gets particularly rabid.................

[malaise]

6. Damn he gets so loud when he is losing a point

Turley is good.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

9. I seriously need to punch

Buchanan in the throat...................

[Dragonfli]

15. I know a guy who could call it "enhanced discussion" and make it legal for you

It is only illegal if it is called assault - easy to fix.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

29. I know that guy ........

He's my cousin.................

:toast:

[Dragonfli]

7. Unfortunately some here hate Turley because he likes rule of law

No matter the party.
He has criticized Democrats so he has been thoroughly demonized by many here.

[malaise]

10. Not me

I respect him. Still don't agree that Clinton should have been impeached but he is consistent re the law.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

11. I've seen that in another thread,

which absolutely shocked me.

There's no one better than Turley. I'd love to see him on the Supreme Court. He's a brilliant teacher, though, and I'd hate for him to have to give that up.

But, the attacks on him here at DU just floored me.............................

[PA Democrat]

14. Can you believe Buchanan invoked the name of Martin Luther King

to justify breaking the law?

[eleny]

22. I'm still shaking my head over that

Frankly, I'd like to hear him develop the thought so he could be laughed off the set. There has to be some convoluted logic rolling around in his head like a hot marble.

[PA Democrat]

32. I know, I wanted someone to ask him if he was off his rocker comparing

Dr. King's commitment to nonviolent action to torture. That was absolutely bizarre.

[eleny]

35. "For the love of God" comes to mind

[malaise]

36. That is not what came to mind

:rofl:

[eleny]

38. Well, okay, swatting him with a rolled up newspaper is what *really* came to mind

:blush:

[AtomicKitten]

17. I so admire Turley's unyielding insistence on the rule of law.

:loveya:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

30. What else is there?

That's why I became a lawyer - that's why lots of us went to law school.

The law demands respect, and those who will not respect the law must be educated and prevented from doing harm to the others.

[AtomicKitten]

31. Of course; I'm talking about it in the face of those trying to make the law squishy. n/t

[taterguy]

18. Whatever happened to observing TV Turn-off week?

It's just one week.

The world won't come to an end if you don't watch.

Trust me.

[spanone]

19. matthews could really do better than pat buchanan.....

[malaise]

21. I am convinced that GE insists on having him there

There is no other rational explanation for his presence.

[spanone]

24. you must be right, otherwise it makes no sense

[merh]

27. well, if you think about it - he gives the balance for the right

so that it isn't "lefties" all the time (though tweety is a moderate that loved bush until it wasn't cool to love bush). I have no qualms with the nutcase, Buchanan, being the face of the right. Let the average folks see what they are really like.

;)

[madamesilverspurs]

23. I'd love to play poker with Unca Pat.

His face gets as hysterical as his screeching. Nope, no poker face there. Hmmmm...

[glowing]

25. Did you see where Pat said people in the US still support these interrogation

techniques.. and I'm thinking, then they are sadistic pigs and they have no business living the United States and calling themselves citizens. America does NOT torture. Its the law, and we live by the law. If you support, then you are a torturer yourself.

[malaise]

26. Pat is defending his Republican goons

He always defends them.

[Peregrine Took]

33. Its time for Pat to retire to the shuffleboard courts in "Boca."

And that screeching high voice and tired old arguments?

Didn't he ever hear the old bromide that the first person who raises their voice in an argument is the automatic loser??
