  1. What Americans really want: for Frank Luntz to eat scrod and die.

    Frank uses languistic alibi/excuses to only
    promote GOPs’ slogans.He will never be proclaimed
    a scholar.

    People like Luntz are a primary reason why we have thousands of deranged people running around claiming that Bush & Cheney staged the 9-11 attacks.

  2. Former Bush 43 Chief of Staff Andy Card discusses the latest political news,

    It will be fun to see if they discuss ACORN. I mean, someone should, right?

    Rocky the Liberal Rottweiler Reply:

    Yeah and after you’re done with Acorn you could discuss something else on that level, like The Three Stooges, or South Park.

    John Galt Reply:

    on that level, like The Three Stooges, or South Park.

    Finally, someone on the left acknowledging that those nut jobs in ACORN have been a joke all this time.

    Silly me, to think that Community Activists could be something serious!

    Three different ACORN offices caught on tape advising on how to set up a prostitution ring and how to cheat the IRS. And the ones who used the 60 Minutes hidden camera to catch them is being investigated and being questioned by the media likes of CBS, NBC, MSNBC, ABC.

    And there is more to come. Stay tuned.

    Well now why are commie liberal stations like CBS, NBC, MSNBC and ABC investigating this? Can they be trusted? Why isn’t Fox “News” investigating ACORN? After all, they are the only station that is “fair and balanced”.

    Spyder95 Reply:

    Fox News is the one investigating ACORN, the other stations are investigating James O’Keefe instead. He is the one who broke the story in the first place. Did you even read the post?

    You gotta LOVE the smearing of ACORN.

    If the latest charges about ACORN are true, (we don’t forget cointel pro), they should be investigated, (unless it’s just a “few bad apples”.)

    I would hate for them be right up there with other scandals that get short shrift, like;

    Salem bin Ladin bailing out GW Bush’s Arbusto Energy, caging Lists, David Iglesias and the US att. Scandal, ~ Pat Robertson and….Operation Rescue planes used for mining in Liberia, then getting FIRST listed on FEMA’s website after Katrina, for donations., Wally O’Dell, the Diebold machines and his pro Bush fundraising letter, in 2004.

    The crack corporate media were all over THOSE stories.

    I guess these guys are to ACORN as the pedophiles are to the church.

    TDro319 Reply:

    Whew, thank God I misunderstood. It all makes sense to me now. The “fair and balanced” news station is investigating ACORN and not any of the other commie stations (that includes you too, PBS).

    Americans can rest assured they’ll get a non-biased assertion of their findings (if any). I nominate Glen Beck to be the “investigative reporter”.

  3. Hey leave frank alone..even chubby bunnys need love too.

    Hey Suzanne. I know a Suzanne Smith. Not you of course. A “chubby bunny”??

    August 11, 2009 2:34 pm ET — Following House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s comment that protestors are “carrying swastikas and symbols like that to a town meeting on health care,” numerous conservatives have misrepresented her comment to claim that she referred to the protestors or opponents of health care reform as “Nazis.” Some conservatives have also falsely claimed Pelosi was lying or being misleading when she noted that protestors have had signs with swastika symbols.

  5. Teabaggers!!! Teabaggers!!! Teabaggers!!!

    Yeah, Anonymouse, they are swarming Alan’s radio show w/ calls lately. And Alan is getting increasingly impatient with them.

  6. When will Fox nation go after the christian coalition
    group which receives millions of tax money?

    goliath43 Reply:

    Sure would like to see a source for that comment Pierre

    Sarah Reply:

    Actually, the Christian Coalition whines all the time about having its tax-exempt status revoked. Waaaah!

    Perhaps Pierre’s talking about the Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Initiatives, which funnels MILLIONS of our tax dollars to all sort of religious entitities. Using our tax money, those religious entities discriminate against others based on gender, religion, sexual preference, etc.– thereby violating all kinds of American laws. And we have Republicans to thank for this travesty.

    DISMANTLE THE OFFICE OF FAITH-BASED AND COMMUNITY INITIATIVES NOW!

  7. The AFP NAFTA toll road conspiracy thing isn’t really a … conspiracy …

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Texas_Corridor

    … a better way to describe it is as the mother of all business opportunities!!

    Privatization of public utilities like roads has been going on for several years. Rather than a global conspiracy by Jews or FreeMasons or The Bilderberg Group to enslave us all, the background is probably much more simpler: corporate greed. Corporations have only spotted one last frontier to enrich themselves at our expense.

    Privatization of public roadways, both existing and new construction, is only more of the uber-business friendly Republican cancer we’ve all been afflicted with. With any luck, a round of chemo is on the way.
