So...How Many Of You Plan To Waste 30 Minutes Watching Dick?
I know for certain I won't bother watching. I wouldn't care to begin with, but the fact it's on Fox News, just seals the deal.

So, how many of you are going to support the Fox News Channel by watching ol' Dick LIE LIE LIE and make TALKING POINTS for 30 minutes?

Do you even expect to hear truth or sincerity from this Bozo slimebag?

3. Not me either! I don't watch FOX. I usually have CNN on in
the background though. I'm sure they'll carry the highlights, if there are any!

4. What's the point?....
He won't say anything relevant. He will try to rationalize what happened and probably try to blame the victim. I can't bear to look at him or hear anything he says.

6. The show is not for us
Its to ensure the ignorant base gets fed the talking points so they can share with us their vast wisdom around the water fountain tomorrow morning. I'd say by the end of the week, "conservatives" will be calling for mr whittington to be arrested.

13. Bingo, you nailed it. This performance is NOT intended to convince us.
It's just more BS to keep the sheeple grazing right along.
They will all be spouting their illogical, anti-factual talking points tomorrow!

I will review the lowlights here at DU;
no need to torture myself by watching Faux News.

I'll get all I need to know right here at DU, including play by play blows with witty commentary and thoughtful insight; not to mention intense sarcasm and tacky remarks. I'm looking forward to it.

78 YEAR OLD MAN HE SHOT IN THE FACE knowing he is only giving this taped interview to FUX to try to repair his image of a reckless and callous jerk off and not because he actually cares about the poor man that he SHOT IN THE FACE!

15. I think it's quite the opposite
the whole point was that he doesn't care about his image (because he's not running for president) and that's why he wasn't speaking. The only reason he's speaking is because of the outcry and white house pressure. As for not caring about his friend...I don't think he's a good VP, but I also don't think that he's an evil man that just shoots his friends IN THE FACE and doesn't think twice about it...lol.

22. I think he's a sociopath who doesn't care about anybody
but himself and those by whom he can profit.

I guess that would be some folks' definition of evil.

23. Well,
for me, evil is an extraordinarily strong word that's thrown around way too easily by people on both sides. That being said, I think using the word "evil" is a great way for us to never win an election - because bottom line - right or wrong - people have faith in the "goodness" of others, no matter how egregious their mistakes and incompetencies.

27. I think
there's a huge divide between what people like us really stand for and what it takes to win an election. Unfortunately, those things never completely line up. The fact of the matter is that the vast majority of people are not as informed day-to-day as people on this board. Most people get their news in snippets or sound bites if that. With that level of knowledge, they function by presuming that people are "doing their best" and are "good people" - no matter how silly that is. I think we can win by being strong and full of conviction, not by being shrill, conspiratorial or loose with accusations of "fascism" or "evil". It just doesn't play and will never play in Peoria - but only on these boards. That's my only point. Bottom line. I don't think our side is doing ourselves any favors by harping on this. I think it will backfire. You have to fight the good fight - the one worth fighting - this ain't it, in my opinion.

Edited on Wed Feb-15-06 02:55 PM by dufrenne
that the everyone is on the story...but I just don't think it helps us. I think keeping other stories on the front page are more important. As for winning elections...I mean the big ones - and at the right time. To do that requires getting momentum and maintaining it for months. Hunting BS doesn't really help that. Iraq and Katrina might though! lol

I can't listen to his muttering again. I'll read the transcript later.
