David Frum made a complete ass of himself tonight on "Real Time"
as did Joe the Plumber.

Joe wants to call Obama a socialist, yet when pressed for a definition of the term, he completely fell apart. That's the problem with right wing talking points -- one size DOES NOT fit all.]

Frum was so disgustingly biased against Obama, as he kept referring to Obama's trip overseas as a massive failure. Even Sam Donaldson let out an "f" bomb when telling him to shut the hell up and he didn't know what he was talking about.

1. Why does anyone care what Frum has to say?
He was a fucking speechwriter - and not a very good one, at that - for Chimpy Fucknuts. Remember "axis of evil"? Yeah, that little piece of genius was Frum.

So why the fuck is he of any interest now?

I don't get it.

And Sam Donaldson has been retired since when? He's legally dead, I believe.

This show needs to die .......................

6. I have an opinion ...............
What's your problem?

And why is someone trying to kill the shoe?

8. It appears you're the one with the problem
with the show?

with Frum appearing on the show?

with Donaldson still being among the living?

with me wondering why you want to kill the show?

and I wouldn't be caught dead wearing those tacky shoes.

here, try a pair of mine:



tres chic, no?

17. In that color???????
Well, maybe with black silk cigarette pants.

But, no, I don't have any problem. I just don't like something that you like. Both our opinions are valid, but there's no need to trash anyone because they see things differently than you do.

I have a great dislike of Frum, and Sam Donaldson is just a bore - but, he always was - and that other guy with the motor mouth, he was just boring.

My opinion. You have yours. It differs from mine. That's fine. I'm not gonna attack you because you don't agree, so please don't do that any more. Not good.

But, lovely shoes ...............................

The show doesn't need to die, but Maher needs to liven up. The Rethug jerks just blatted on and on
tonight, with little input from Maher. Generally he skewers ludicrous "talking points" such as Frum was spewing.

5. You are bad. "He's legally dead, I believe?"
:rofl:

I liked Maher's rant at the end, but Sam was right, why wasn't Maher stating his opinion?

Frum and that other guy (the closet Dem) were rethugs. And why didn't Maher ask about the state of the rethug party, which is in disarray?

7. I did about 45 minutes -
that was it.

Nice to see, though, that Sam is still using that same distinguished, distinctive hairpiece. For a while, rumor held that he had had it painted on, but then there was An Incident one day at the White House. Some adhesives just cannot be trusted in gusty windy weather.

Frum's such a POS. That other guy just kept talking and saying absolutely NOTHING. And they all just sat there.

That's entertainment?

Oh, and Pat Buchanan's dead, too..........................

11. I could care less about his hairpiece, and wish Sam had had
someone to agree with him, because he was correct as far as it went. Maher sucked during this.

18. Frum is the ultimate bloviator from windbag city
defending the useless class against the vile 'public', who of course know nothing a la Chicago school style of Straussians.

...but is he bitter?

19. Like Joe the Plumber..........
Why do these people keep getting invited onto TV shows?

Is it because they're the only "Republicans" around?

I mean, they're both useless tools .............

2. Wait, Sam Donaldson told David Frum to shut the fuck up?
I knew I liked his hair piece.

14. This thread is a fun read. Just like I enjoyed the show with all its quirks, maybe
I'm just into getting a kick out of everybody tonight.
Great shoes, girls.

20. Yeah, yeah -
you've got thousands of reasons to smile, missy.

So, you're laughing easily - even at stuff that's not funny.

You know, that's pretty wonderful .............................. :hug:
