6. Hi roctivity!
That crap just irks the hell out of me. Someone says something VERY CLEARLY, and then when people are offended/angry/whatever, say they didn't MEAN what we thought we heard them say, they misspoke, we misconstrued, blah blah blah. :eyes:

:hi:

18. Same thing with "the little people" statement
Edited on Thu Jun-17-10 07:28 PM by rocktivity
"Clumsy translation" or not, that guy said what he meant and meant what he said. He just didn't understand that Americans who can't afford to attend $50,000-a-plate fundraisers don't LIKE being referred to as "little people!"

8. Joe B is just another nut
in the GOP. Not his first crazy won't be his last. Though he did teach me to never leave him in control of anyone's money.

14. Thanks, SG.
I have seen some bad stuff in DU, especially during Indecision '08, but whew, the crap that's been spewed against Keith and Rachel, combined with the mindless pro-Obama cheerleading, reached a point of critical idiocy the past few days.

16. Yeah, I know.
You know, I wasn't all too happy with either Keith or Rachel in their reactions to Obama's speech on Tuesday, but I'm not going to stomp off in a huff and swear to gawd that they're dead to me. I just didn't watch too much of them that night.

Whenever stuff like that happens, I always thank my luck stars that I am not close friends or a family member of the folks who do that. Could you imagine? If you didn't do everything to their standards, your butt would be on the streets!

13. I just hope some Dem somewhere
had a hard drive full of their video. The commercials write themselves and do national with the local.

15. Did Keith get to run the first
Harry Potter trailer on MSNBC tonight? I haven't been watching enough regular TV to know if it had run already.

24. The ad ran on all the NBC networks at the same time, 8 ET
Keith had no control over that. But he probably didn't mind.

25. I didn't think he had control
but wondered if it was a bit on purpose. Guess not but sure he didn't mind either. Also glad I wasn't that far out of it TV wise. Thanks.

26. Maybe Green's attorney was
ashamed to be seen with him. I wouldn't want to be seen taking advantage of someone the so obviously needs help.
