1. Thanks for posting -

K&R

[ShortnFiery]

2. Why do the whorish News-models constantly slobber all over Lizard Cheney?

:shrug:

[Kind of Blue]

4. Maybe because she's the only

one of the republicans I've seen so far who remains deadpan as she twists the issues, as if doing so makes her rational. But she lost all that smugness this time when she said, "Lawrence thinks we should have waterboarded 500 people at Guantanmo." Very twisted woman.

16. BTW, NYT altered the story after the paper was released

the paper story with "returned" to AlQaida once they were released was changed online to a word such as "enlisted in" because it was realized that many- if not all- of the released were innocent. As you all know, the US offered large sums of money to Afghans to 'turn in known AlQaida operatives' and, well, given that chance, I'd turn in my boss immediately.
Lawrence- or anyone else- has to talk over just to get a word in with this new genre of dangerously positioned blondes. Good post, thanks!

18. OMG, turn in Lawrence?!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Desperate times I guess calls for desperate measures. I hope it never gets that bad for us. Oh, wait, remember all those people a few years ago who were turned in by neighbors, people at the gym, et cetera just because they hated what Bush was doing in Iraq? Sheesh, I remember being shushed so many times for speaking "too loudly" about my hatred of Bush. It's so sad remembering those days but much sadder still for innocent suffering Iraqis.

5. Lizard Cheney!

:rofl:

[WestSeattle2]

3. Just like her mother.....caught in misleading statements and

failed logic, just raise your voice and change the subject.

[emulatorloo]

8. She is the perfect reptilian mixture of her Crocodile Mom and T-Rex Dad.

6. The Cheneys are attempting to obfuscate with a data dump.

They think that by getting more info released they can cherry pick from that stuff that they hope can be used in Cheney's defense.

7. Finally someone who will talk over a Rethug!

That was great. Her voice alone could have been a torture technique but Laurence did not lay down! Good on him.

[ErtBob]

9. This discussion format should not be allowed

Just having them talk over each other is really irritating and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn from what they are saying.
It's a total waste of time.

[Kind of Blue]

19. I know it's hard. I think its a matter of

getting used to it. She's really gotten a lot of air time answering non probative questions or questions posed to give her enough time to twist reality. But Lawrence is just an extremely quick thinker, not giving her a chance to get deep into her schmap. For me, that was the beauty of the interview. I mean twice she tried to push that Lawrence wanted 500 people waterboarded. How ridiculous is that?

10. Lawrence is PISSED.

He was visibly upset on MSNBC after Cheney's "speech". I'm glad SOMEONE in the media has some passion around this issue.

13. Cheney sends out his daughter for protection but...

O'Donnell doesn't give a damn who she thinks she is.

[greiner3]

11. Is the term "Bitch-Slap;"

Redundant in this instance?

[rtassi]

12. Just wondering how his daughter became such an expert? n/t

[Number23]

14. Is Dick Cheney SERIOUSLY hiding behind his daughter now??

Really??????!

[Hulk]

15. Damn...I was thinking I was going to enjoy this "bitch slap"....but I was wrong!

I appreciate Lawrence O'Donnell's enthusiasm, but I think it really made him look bad today. Let the bitch speak...then bitch slap her to hell. To shout over her made him as well as her impossible to decipher.

I think her arguments are weak and full of holes. Let her hang herself....something I would love to see. The old man is going down..but I wish Lawrence had just let her express herself and then taken her apart.

My two cents.

[florida08]

17. my thoughts

too. While I certainly feel the emotional ire that Lawrence does, she is female and his riding roughshod over her projects a bully.
Calm and precise works better...let the bait come to the trap..then chop her head off!

[g96bdby47]

20. Liz Cheney

Oh, I think she held her own all right.....Actually she blew that fat faced pig out of the water.....

[newmac]

21. Number of times Liz Cheney has been waterboarded--- ZERO

So where does she get her "expertise"? Could she even last 3 seconds?

[Jack Rabbit]

22. Remember the days when "Liz and Dick" referred to something relatively innocent?

23. How come

none of these interviewers asks her the most basic question:

"Why are you out here speaking in your father's defense?"
