    It does seem a bit heavy handed even for the fascists.


  2. Marie says:

    Fascists are being exposed. Is the MSM finally waking up to what the hell has been going on for five years?
    Disinformation. Squelching of the dissenters. Censorship.


  3. Susan says:

    Don’t worry Ed you have loyal listeners and you don’t need some lame station that nobody listens to anyway.

    That link didn’t work for me; you may want to try http://about.upi.com/products/perspectives/UPI-20051017-061704-9421R

    BTW, I love your site. Don’t have much to say in comments, but yours is among my top4 when I’m looking for quick news updates.

    Yo, buckfush! FYI, what you are doing is called “spam”. I promise you that I will never visit any of your links because you have become a distraction and an annoyance. Please, find something meaningful to say in your comments or else start your own website and stop abusing this one.

    #6-GP,

    SPAMFUSH doesn’t care what you say. I think he/she/it thinks that they’re contributing to the debate. I suggest just reporting him to administration and they’ll hopefully ban him. He’s breaking the Terms of Use agreement. Maybe admin doesn’t care. Lot’s of people complain, and he/she/it’s still here posting the same old garbage.

    While I generally disagree with inaccurate opinions expressed by indivuals such as Northeast Dilemma, they are at least writing something new. SPAMFUSH just copies and pastes the same old crap. Hmmm. Let’s boycott all of these companies because of their Republican donations (yet they all donate to Democratic causes too) Doesn’t make any sense.


  7. Brian says:

    Boy howdy that military sure is teachin’ us pansies a lesson, huh!


  8. Brian says:

    Buckfush is just “staying the course”. Give him/her a break. Seriously, atleast he/she is on our side.


  9. Brian says:

    I have to go watch baseball, but I have to get this off my chest: Judy Miller is a whore. She’s worse than Rove and all those other f*ckers combined.

    She’s the snitch in Midnight Express who got his goddamn tongue chewed out by someone who had been pushed around too much too long.


  10. The Muse says:

    Right on! The MSM listens…excellent work Progressives.

    Take a bow baby!

    And let’s take back our damn country while we’re at it.

  11. Clyde the Ripper says:

    While this may be a little off thread I still want to make a point about “supporting our troops.” This has become the favorite put down and talking point of the Bushco when they have no logical explanation for their tyranical actions. How are we to support our troops in our own way and not as directed by the Chimp-in-charge? How do we support the Army Private (E-2), from Carson, CA, three months out of basic training assigned permanent KP duty in a mobile field kitchen in the Iraq desert who just received a “Dear John” letter from his girl friend. The girl friend is going to marry his brother because they got a little high on some good pot one night and she is pregnant. Do you think he really gives a shit that you have stickers on your car, your suv, your ATV, and your boat when he doesn’t have a bumper to stick anything to? How do we support the Marine Lance Corporal, a career Military man from Santa FE, NM, who finished his tour in Iraq and shipped over for Six for the bonus and Staff Sargeant. He paid cash for a new Corvette but didn’t have enough money for his “Wetting Down” party and insurance on the car so he chose to treat his buddies. After the party he totaled the ‘Vette, got a DUI, was busted to Private and shipped back to Iraq. Do you think he gives a good rat’s ass about how many candles you burned with Cindy Sheenan. How do we support the Navy Captain, a ring knocker from the Naval Academy, who was deep selected for his first star two years ahead of his classmates. His favorite Aunt has just willed him her shares in the family business, giving him the controlling interest in the company, a seat on the Board, and the ten million dollar mansion overlooking Chesepeake Bay. Do you think he cares what asshole ison the talk radio? Are these true stories? No, not ver batim, but yes thousands of times over. Our troops are people just like you and I. They are not different, they are not special any more than any other person that chooses a hazardous occupation. They signed up to do a job and they all, from the Private to the captain will, if left alone, do it well when they are allowed to do so. How do we support them? We tell them what their job is and let them do it or we bring them home and let them get ready for the next time they are needed. Their job is not to play baby sitter over Daddy Bush’s oil fields. Their job is not to stroke DUHbya’s ego by being briefed for a photo op. Their job is to protect me, you, our families, their families, our Country, and they should be allowed to do just that and nothing more than they agreed to do when they took the job.

    Is this chump Blue State Red?

    I wonder why he never links to his piss poor blog? Wait a second. No I don’t.

  14. Liberals Have Screwed Up This Country says:

    Why won’t Ed debate Dennis Proeger? Is he afraid of losing in the battle of ideas? He must be. Dennis was willing to fly him to LA or go to North Dakota.


  15. Marie says:

    I think you have your debaters mixed up.


  16. Ryan Neat says:

    LHSUTC,

    The latest polls show an 11% spread of americans that want the DEMOCRATS to control congress. Clearly the american people feel democratic ideas are already better – you’ve lost the debate before you ever started it this election cycle!


  17. Liberals Have Screwed Up This Country says:

    As usual, you have your facts screwed up. Here’s the link etc.

    Hour 2:
    Why Won’t a Liberal Talk Show Host Debate Dennis?
    His name is Ed Schultz. He libeled Bill Bennett. Dennis called him on it. Schultz called for a public debate. Dennis agreed – anywhere, anytime. Schultz backed down.

  18. Liberals Have Screwed Up This Country says:

    Ryan,

    Where are you getting your information? Republicans and democrats in both houses are polling at record low levels and they are not that far apart.


  19. Ryan Neat says:

    No wonder you’re fvcked up if you’re listening to Prager!

    As for libeling – bahaha. If that were true, he’d sue and win. That reminds me of OLiely saying that he’d been libeled – and then proceeded to lose his case! Bahahaha, you conservatives are such wusses! Bennett does a fabulous job of libeling himself. I read the entire transcript, the man’s a hateful fool! And you’re a hateful idiot for defending him!

    As for the polls, clearly you don’t read anything that isn’t republican stamped, so I forgive you of your blind obedience and obvious ignorance.

    “A plurality of Americans, 48%, said they would prefer the Democrats to control Congress compared to 39% who want the Republicans in power, said the poll commissioned by United States television channel NBC and the Wall Street Journal.”


  20. Liberals Have Screwed Up This Country says:

    Ryan,

    Do you ever sleep? You post here day and night. You really must be worried. Get off of here and go take a nap. You really could use the rest.


  21. Ryan Neat says:

    “Ryan,
    Do you ever sleep? You post here day and night. You really must be worried. Get off of here and go take a nap. You really could use the rest.
    Comment by Liberals Have Screwed Up This Country”

    Ah, thanks for the concern? It’s the most heartwarming gesture I’ve ever seen from a republican! Now if I only believed you were being anything but a sarcastic dope.

    I guess I just don’t need much sleep – too bad for dopes like you who post propaganda lies…


  22. Ryan Neat says:

    So RepublicansAlwaysScrewAmerica,

    I posted the source of my study, and the best you can do is make a passive aggressive slap at my sleeping patterns? Wow, you really are incapable of admitting your failures. You know, there are drugs to deal with those kind of psychotic breaks!
