Tweety asks Macaca tape viewers this question:
Who are you going to believe, Allen (and his explanation that macaca was a word he just made up on the spot), or ''your lying eyes?''

he was very tough on the repellent Ed (Screw Nose) Gillespie, who tried his best to defend Allen's indefensible, mendacious responses to his clear and obvious racist background

of course he had to say, at the end of his rant against Gillespie's position, that he LIKES Allen (along with Gillespie), and thinks Allen will win the election

first tweety thread of the day?

7. great point! he was LITERALLY squirming: left shoulder turned, bent

8. Salon reporter made great point that, of course, the M$M ignored:
the constantly changing explanation for macaca, including her hilarious example:

he meant to use the word "caca". she said that was a curious explanation, in that saying CACA about someone of color is pretty obviously a WORSE explanation than the one given, isn't it?

calling a person of color "shit" would seem that to me; that's for sure

nobody in the M$M seems to be picking up on the everchanging explanations Allen is proffering, allowing him to make his statements unchallenged, accepting them at face value, instead of asking him why he keeps CHANGING all the time

what a surprise

Since that RW slug Glenn Beck is beating him in the ratings for first time this month.

5. I wonder if Gillespie would react the same
if it were, say, John Kerry who was similarly implicated?

6. 'Yeah, he's a racist bully, but I like him'.
Huh? If I considered someone to be a racist bully, I wouldn't like them. That's all I need to know.

10. Tweety Is A SCUMBAG
I wouldn't spend 10 Seconds watching that piece of garbage show. It's bad enough I have to time my tuning to MSNBC to the second so I can catch Countdown without having to listen to one second of his Softball SPIN.

11. no tape of him saying N word, but Dr. Shelton is teammate of Allen,
who was on tape stating that Allen used that word all the time

he's also quoted as saying allen asked him if he was related to KKK Grand Dragon (Wizard? I thought it was Grand Dragon) Shelton, and started using nickname Wizard as result

13. make sure you TAPE this at 6! one of his best shows ever, especially Al!
he's acting the way Dems SHOULD act, and will doubtless be described as UNHINGED:

showing his outrage at the pugs for selling us this phony war with lie upon lie

he's actually keeping that fat, bulbous puswort Blankley from opening his fat yap. best thing I've seen on a gasbag show in a LONG LONG time

seriesly

14. the BEST EXCHANGE I've seen in a LONG time:
Al quotes Blankley in the WashTimes as saying Clarke DEMOTED himself, when, in actuality, 'demoted himself' AFTER 911, when his role was renedered meaningless. he went on in some detail, with FACTS, to support his accusation against Blankely, and all that obscenely corpulent bastard (who was VISIBLY shaken, turned a clearly different color), could do was accuse Franken of being removed from reality

it was fanTASTIC

Blankley eaten alive, unable to respond, other than with ad hom attack...no facts whatsoever

16. Gillespie was speechless because he knew what Tweety said was the TRUTH.
"Allen never heard the word before he said it? He just made it up? It just so happened that that particular word from S. Africa pertained to dark skinned people in a derogatory way and the man he attacked with that word just happened to be the ONLY dark skinned person at the rally? The term is a word from S.Africa and Allen's mother just so happens to be from S.Africa and he never heard the word or knew what it meant?"

Gillespie knew he was had. His only argument was "I believe George Allen and George Allen's mother." Riiiight.

18. good job!....pretty close, if not exactly what he said.
definitely taping this show

between Gillespie and Blankley, it's going to be hard to tell which one was more visibily shaken, more visibly OWNED by Tweet or Franken

take your pleasurable pick

22. best line of the show so far, from the Salon reporter, on Allen camp's
Edited on Tue Sep-26-06 06:33 PM by Gabi Hayes
explanation of what he said, as part of their ever CHANGING rationales for his idiotically self-revelatory statement:

"....he really meant caca! OK, so we're going to call the brown kid caca. That makes me feel a lot better. Every time they've tried to clarify this, they've made it worse."

as long as they keep him on the defensive, what else matters?

isn't that the SINA QUA NON of ALL republican campaign tactics? FUCK the issues, because they ALL redound against us. let's bring up as many straw men as possible, and keep the mouthbreathers from realizing how badly they're getting screwed.
