Chris Matthews doesn't know where he stands on torture..

[isit2008yet]

maybe be-headings are okay in a swap for torturing people...WTF was he thinking when he said that?

[Cocoa]

1. Tweety gets away with saying a lot of stupid shit

[The Zanti Regent]

16. Oh, Tweety loves torture as long as he's drunk

Tweety, do us a favor, fall off the wagon and burn your liver out.

[dogman]

2. His tortured thought process has caused him to lose his head?

Does he think?

[0007]

14. ...like a bull frog that burps every now and then!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

3. maybe he likes to have his nipples pinched during coitus

eom

[blondeatlast]

4. Tweety doesn't know where he stands in the urinal.

Not R, not D, not independent, not Libertarian... I can't even deal with him. He makes no sense to me whatsoever.

[AlCzervik]

5. he's on every side of every issue

he had a lot of nerve sniping at Kerry.

[Spinzonner]

6. Maybe he should be given a sample

to clarify his thinking on it

[left is right]

8. more than just a sample

he should be tortured until he has a clear idea of where he stands on the subject.

7. Help

I can't start my own thread just yet, but I am watching Hardball. I was kind of paying attention, they said that in July they would basically impose a "blue state tax", said something to the effect that you could not write off your local and state taxes which are much higher in the northeast and west coast. Can anyone here explain this as i only caught the end?

11. The elimination of the deduction for state taxes is one of the monkey's

brilliant :eyes: ideas (he apparently doesn't think too highly of the mortgage deduction either). This would hit some of the blue states especially hard as they pay higher income taxes, e.g. NY and CA.

It seems unfathomable that this would pass muster, but so do a lot of things that have happened since the freak stole office.

Welcome to DU :hi:

[htuttle]

13. One of the other brilliant ideas I heard at the same time

...was that Bush also wants to get rid of the corporate tax deduction for the employer contribution to employee health plans. The only reason I can imagine he'd want to do this is to get a lot of corporations to cancel their health insurance contributions -- makes no sense otherwise.

[sadiesworld]

15. Yep, that one is a real lulu.

I'm not sure whether he's just looking for something to put in the coffers (while still leaving his corporate buddies with a zero sum deal), he figures that he can put his uber-free-market-corporate fantasies to work in the health care arena, or he just wants us all to die. :shrug:

(Hmmm...left one out...the military will still provide health care)

[Old and In the Way]

9. That was today.

Tomorrow, he'll be disgusted with it. The day after tomorrow, he'll think its a great idea.

Probably caught him in the middle between his polar swings........

10. I SAW THIS

I happened to be channel surfing and I caught the end of the interview with the journalist from the "New Yorker". I can bearly stand to watch the sputtering fool because he never allows the question to be answered, but:
After all she said - and all has been documented about the ineffectiveness of torture for information gathering, at the end of the program that tight, thin-lipped dry drunk, sanctimonious Catholic ex-cop who usually gushes over "studs", offensively concluded by saying he thought there were times when torture was appropriate. I felt like kicking his lily white Catholic arse out the door.

What would Jesus say?

[0007]

12. Why bother even listening to these types of jack off?
