Wonder if Tweety will try being rude to them.

34. What?
Tweety has had a hard on for B*sh since 911. He's in love with his "swagger." :puke:

40. You must not watch this show much...
75% of the time he's on Bushs' case. He admits to being a Democrat.

50. No, he hides behind his past Dem affiliation to hide his r-w love affair
He voted for Bush, and he only opposes Bush on the issue of the war. That's a pretty big issue, but even with a clear understanding of the havoc Bush has created with foreign policy, he still gushes over Bush and denigrates Dems for criticizing him.

42. Maybe Reagan but NOT Bush....
Have you been watching this show in the last few months. He was against the war in Iraq. That was when he strated getting on Bush's case.

54. I think the lily-livered sissy sees the worm turning with the public
and also s**thead's lies about the war and is trying to ready himself for the next popular wave, instead of rational discussions of truth, which we could always use. He was death on Gore during the last presidential election, and it made me sick.

53. And he veritably panted when talking about Clinton's sexual foibles.
Couldn't talk about "obstruction of justice" enough.

2. So what's Bush saying?
Or isn't he man enough to face down a bunch of widows? We know he's afraid of Helen Thomas -- 83 year old reporters scare the bejabbers out of the tough Texan.

4. Chris Matthews is interviewing the widows...
One's asking why Bush and Rumsfeld just sat there for 40 minutes after the attackes and did nothing.

One is saying that there might have been something "more sinister" that went on other than just "mere" non-reaction.

9. Bush needs to step up to the plate
no urgency to correct failures.

admit failures.

investigate.

talk, not action.

not a lot of cooperation with 9-11 commission.

Now that lame-ass official report came out there should be nothing keeping these women off the air except internal corporate media decisions.

26. if you could give Cheney sodium pentathol
Matthews asked Breitweiser, what would you ask him.

She reeled off a list of questions, some of which are referred to in this thread, all of them ones that people on this board have asked as well.

The other widow, as I mentioned above, was also great!!! She questioned whether there was something more sinister.

She said that on nation-wide tv.

Let Bill O-fucker Really try to tell her to shut up. Would he try to tell her he's done more for the survivors of victims...like he did to the son of a survivor who brought up the fact that America armed the mujahadeen, including bin Laden?

Now Gail Sheeney is on-- she wrote the article recently about the widows and has a book, Middletown, USA, out.

I don't have MSNBC. I have read about these ladies before - do they have an organization? (Not that they need one, just curious, because I would certainly donate.)

21. that was one of the few segments where
Matthews could really say "let's play Hardball" and really mean it! Both guests got the message out perfectly, hopefully we'll hear them get a lot more airtime after this, at least on talk radio.

45. well, you missed the earlier segment...
...with Peggy Noonan where they both became orgasmic over the presidential Bush and how the "young man" (Tweety's term) was "slapped by history". It was absolutely disgusting.

28. He just praised the 9/11 women!
I can't remember what he said, but it was an aside when he was talking to the woman in pink. It was honest praise for the widows. Interesting.

29. He gets it WAAAAAY wrong, again
Asked about how many U.S. deaths there were in WW2, he confidently responds "quarter million", and the woman interviewed just accepts it.

Last I looked, it was 408,000 or so. Big deal? Oh, I guess not...just typical.

30. I'm NOW convinced - Bush is toast!!!
Can you believe they are on Bush's case like this on Sept. 11? I thought that they would be talking about what a hero he was all day and they've been talking about how his poll numbers are down and getting a few pot shots in on Bush (on Buchanan and Press).

Things are going to get hotter and hotter for him.

The tide is turning folks!!!

where the White House hid the TRUE condition of the air from New Yorkers after 9/11. And the firefighters from NY are not being treated for their health problem, etc.

47. The show will repeat later. Maybe twice, I'm not certain
The first part had that Bush #41 speechwriter, Peggy Whatsits, and she wetted herself over the glory of Bush #43, and Chris claimed the speech he made to the Senate after 9/11 was the finest speech he ever heard, or some such groveling.

He totally disqualified himself as a rational person in the first part, and I turned it off, only to return near the end of the 9/11 widows' interview.

Chris looked at the camera and said, "How'd you like to have THOSE two coming after you?"

Not sure what he meant by that, but I'm sure glad they made an impact. Going to watch the show later tonight to catch that interview.
