Letterman's disgusting buttering up of Gen. Franks

[glarius]

It's sickening to watch Letterman with Gen. Tommy Franks ranting on about what a wonderful job Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and the rest have done in Iraq etc....I'm really surprised at Dave.

[NewYorkerfromMass]

1. and he said Kerry's "another Dem without a chance" last night

anyone want to organize a protest in front of the Ed Sullivan Theater at Broadway and 54th? I'm getting ready to. :mad:

[JohnKleeb]

12. at least he didnt say working for Kerry was one of the worst jobs

of the summer he said this about Dennis K but frankly its been an honor.

[glarius]

2. Dave is asking harder questions now, but still Frank is lying about

there being a connection between 9/11 and Iraq....

[Cha]

3. What a Weirdo! I thought he hated bush? What wonderful job?

So "wonderful" they're callin' in their UN card?

edit; spelling

[radiclib]

4. Why are you surprised?

After all, Dave must compete with Jay's obsequious ass-kissing.

[The_Gopher]

5. he'll be back to making fun of bush tomorrow night...

i mean, are we going to bitch and moan every time an interview doesn't go our way? every time a dem candidate is made fun of?

it's clear that letterman thinks very little of bushie. no need to pitch a fit over this one.

[wtmusic]

7. Agree; he has to stay neutral

on the air. Big $ involved.

[The_Gopher]

11. no, wait, they used Kerry's hair in a joke! down with Letterman!!!

.

6. If he wanted to put a General on...he should have had Clark

[glarius]

8. Enough of that bullshit.....The old lizard is going off into retirement

Franks laughingly admitted he was dumb in school and we're supposed to have faith in his abilities as a general?....He's nothing but a blow hard!

9. franks: "...I think back to how I felt on 12 September...."

In response to Dave's question about how it makes franks feel that more Americans have died in Iraq since major moron declared the "war" over.

That's when I stood up and walked out of the room - fuck him

Tie everything in with 9/11 - shamelessly play upon those vulnerable feelings.

Tie everything in with our brave soldiers - shamelessly hide behind true bravery.

These lying, murderous, false-patriots in this bush regime make me want to puke. What shallow, slimy scum.

[glarius]

10. I agree in spades! They're disgusting!

:puke:

[aquart]

13. Nauseated you, too, huh?

I was screaming at the TV.

Those rotten Iraqis not seeing how wonderful we are for them.

When the idiot moron bastard spoke of how he felt on September 12 as a justification for invading the people WHO HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH 9/11.....

And they wonder why I still want the death penalty.

[bookman]

14. While not pleased...

.. I think Dave has great respect for the troops. He realizes that they're just doing a job.

He did question things, but didn't battle with the answers. I think he was trying to be respectful.

Franks was laughable. I'm sure he was a kiss ass general.

He actually mentioned the guy who had things buried in his yard!
Heaven help us.

[sistersofmercy]

15. Ah, the voice of reason! Thank You!

[glarius]

16. O.K...So Dave's respectful of the troops...Why did he have to give this

clown a platform for his propoganda?
