Randi has a freeper on the line

[LSK]

Arguing that Bush isnt stupid because he had the same grades as Al Gore in college...

[tsuki]

1. That was then, this is now. This is your brain, this is your brain on

drugs.

[LSK]

2. now discussing plamegate

He says it doesnt matter who told Novak about Plame.

3. How can these people even dial the phone (nt)

18. I heard part of Hannity's show July 4th weekend

(I was out of range of AAR in Memphis and was trying to find something to listen to on the drive to my parents' house in Arkansas.)

Anyway, he had some callers on the line and was quizzing them about some pretty basic history. One woman who gushed about how much she loved Hannity's show couldn't answer, "What nation did Americans fight in the Revolutionary War?" She was stumped! He asked another caller a question about Vietnam (something basic, too, like "What continent is Vietnam considered a part of?") and he couldn't answer it, either.

:banghead:

19. Hey Rob H

Welcome to DU. You know whats going to be funny, and I dont know if it's true or not, I hear that there going to be asking history and current event questions on driver licinse exams. Lol. Can you imagine how many people will get this one wrong. What's the color of an orange?

4. she just whooped his ass...

and the caller was just like a bushbot co-wrkr at my ofc. Rejecting facts for opinion as if the truth depends on your point of view...

[eleny]

5. I thought it was Kerry - not Gore

Looks like the caller may not be well informed.

[Melodybe]

6. It was Kerry and not Gore, Gore didn't go to Yale and had straight A's.

9. Which only furthers.........

our knowledge that these people don't know what in hell they're talking about! ;)

[LSK]

8. it was Kerry, shame on me for letting a freeper confuse me

[eleny]

14. I think that guy was planted by Rove

That Rove has a crew who calls liberal programs to confuse and get false "facts" out there.

I wonder why he chose to bring Gore's name into it? Hmmmmm....

[ClintonTyree]

7. It always amazes me..........

that those on AAR will allow dissenting opinions to be heard, while the right wing mutton-heads wouldn't dream of it.
I guess it shows that the right wing is afraid of honest debate and more importantly, the truth. They hide in their cloistered studios, surrounded by their "fact" checkers (propaganda artists) and never once let the light of day shine on their inane screeds.
That's why I'm a Democrat I guess, I''m not afraid to debate the opposition and the truth is usually on our side.

[LSK]

11. they should have more freepers call in

Its a good exercise to hear Randi blow tons of wholes into their paperthin arguments.

[caledesi]

16. Oh, that is my favorite part - when Randi skewers them with the

facts! I love it.

[eleny]

12. And the wingers who call demand to speak

This guy kept asking Randi to allow him to speak after she gave him so much time to have his say.

Frankly, I think he's a plant who called specifically to lie. Lie about what Dean said, lie about Gore having the same grades in college as W, wrong when he characterized Randi's characterization of Reagan. He knew what he was doing every step of the way. I wouldn't be surprised if Rove has a crew that calls these shows specifically to trip up people. If so, he trains them well.

[Just Me]

10. A silver-spoon fed Harvard degree does not dictate "intelligence".

She contained the con artist, QUICK!!!!

[eleny]

13. Yep, W's dad paid for his degrees.

[Just Me]

17. His whole political career was bought and paid for,...

,...and he still contributes absolutely NOTHING towards actually leading anyone or anything towards progress. He's a HO and the human exploiters are in charge.

It's friggin' disgusting!!!!

[DanCa]

20. Heck my grades are higher than Dubyas.....

And am a mcnugget short of a happy meal. It takes both grades and life experience to correlate into wisdom.

[Just Me]

15. Now, she is doing a superb rant FOR democracy,...

,...which these BushCo/neoCON tyrants are destroying.

I love this woman!!! She IS a patriot!!! :woohoo:
