2. Or go on and just ask him over and over what he "owes" to Tom Delay
He really needs to be called on that. It's an important story and the MSM isn't going to cover it.

7. You do know why they are letting Tweety go all GOP on us???
The idea is to pull Republicans to MSNBC, and hope they will stay for KO. While it is distasteful for us, it's upping the ratings of COUNTDOWN.

Tweety needs his medication adjusted seasonally, I believe. But that said, it's kind of amusing to watch him spin from a fantasy perspective not shared by anyone who is reality-based.

9. I dunno.
The amusement seems to be overwhelmed by nausea, most of the time.
Seeing quick-witted paragons of integrity, such as Randi Rhodes, showing up on Lou Dobbs is heartening. Love her or not, agree with her or not, it's comforting to know she will not embarrass herself or us and won't back off.

11. Try to detach when you watch him, and pay close attention to his
PANDERING phrases. That idiotic exchange with DeLay was absolutely priceless. The problem is, when DeLay is marched off to the Federal Pen, Tweety will be hard put to find any footage of DeLay to show in retrospective that does not feature Tweety himself giving the guy a verbal blow job.

It all comes back to Tweety's judgment. See, there's a reason he isn't on political staff anymore!

8. I have chewed and chewed this over, coming down on all
sides. After a bit, I think that, as pissy as it gets, they have to keep going on, because they need the air time, and the hosts will try their best to trip them up, diving lots of opportunity for such quick on their feet notables as Howard Dean, Russ Feingold, or the inimitable Barbara Boxer, to do brain surgery on such self aggrandizing screamers as tweety lickball and doofus the wolf.
The real challenge is to hide and keep hidden the faux progressives like brazille and holy joe, thus controlling the frame. Eventually, now that they are self destructing, the neoconster crooks will begin to wear heavily on their viewers, with the constant whining and repeats of tired, threadbare talking points. The constant screw ups, corruption charges, and attempts to implicate innocent dems in their corruption will eat thew better than any argument from us.
The straw man technique, with warm bodies, that those moral pygmies use, of picking their own imitation liberals and then destroying them is the key scenario to be avoided.
Later, as more and more political slots are filled with dems, it will be no big move to have more dems on those pitiful shows.

10. That won't work.
We need to get more Dems with spine on there who can take Tweety down.
We also need to get more Dems on Faux, on CBS, on PBS, on NBC, on CNN, etc.
