Matthews Compares Palin To Fictional Union Organizer Norma Rae
Matthews Compares Palin To Fictional Union Organizer Norma Rae
Yesterday on his NBC Sunday talk show, Chris Matthews said that “Republicans think they’ve found a pit bull in Sarah Palin” because she spent time “battling big oil” as governor. He added that as “mayor of little Wasilla,” she got “ready for some big fights, a strong female up against the odds fighting for justice.”
Matthews then linked Palin to the fictional union organizer from the film “Norma Rae” :
MATTHEWS: She’s a conservative version, you think, perhaps, of some movie heroes like Norma Rae, the factory worker fed up with minimum wage who did whatever it took, even jail time, to get the union organized.
Matthews then aired a short clip of the film, in which Norma — played by Sally Field — calls on workers in a southern textile mill to unionize. Watch it:
Of course, Matthews didn’t provide any specifics on how Palin stood “up against the odds fighting for justice” like Norma Rae did in the film. But Palin tries to play the part, often touting her husband Todd’s membership to the United Steelworkers Union (USW) — a transparent attempt to fool union voters into thinking a McCain-Palin ticket serves their best interests.
In fact, USW President Leo Gerard said recently that Palin’s USW references do “nothing to absolve Sen. McCain of his long history of anti-union sentiment and anti-worker actions” and demanded that Palin “stop using the USW as a prop.”
Palin herself delivered “non-answers” and “a disarming smile” when she was asked about the corporate conduct of Wal-Mart — one of the country’s most profitable companies that famously prevents its workers from unionizing.

Chris wait until you’re off air to masterbait please.
September 8th, 2008 at 5:48 pmPalin’s a fictiona alright, but not the least bit progressive.
September 8th, 2008 at 5:48 pmPallid herself is a “non candidate” and was “armed”, drunk (on power and otherwise) alongside Cheney to go shoot people at 30 feet.
September 8th, 2008 at 5:52 pmHmmm, I think Palin may be more of a conservative ‘Flying Nun’ than ‘Norma Rae’
“When lift (Lies) plus thrust (Theme) is greater than load (McCain) plus drag (Bush), anything can fly!” The Flying Palin
September 8th, 2008 at 5:52 pmMatthews had been doing better, but he went off the deep end again. He was the same as calling McCain the next President after McCain’s acceptance speech.

September 8th, 2008 at 5:58 pmLets see Palin unionize the Anheuser-Bush distributorship Cindy McCain owns, then I’ll believe she is pro-union.
September 8th, 2008 at 5:59 pmMATTHEWS: She’s an open version, you think, perhaps, of a secret.
MATTHEWS: She’s an original version, you think, perhaps, of a copy.
MATTHEWS: She’s a jumbo version, you think, perhaps, of a shrimp.
September 8th, 2008 at 5:59 pmI thought she was Paulah Bunyan, swinging that axe and stomping around in her boots. One swipe knocked an incumbent governor out of the Republican primary.
She planted her foot squarely in front of the site of the Bridge to Nowhere. The problem was her mouth was there first.
She’s still traipsing around the Alaskan countryside, trying to hide her human faults while preparing for a softball interview. Watch out Alaskans for that swinging blade or those heels. I bet they hurt those who get in her way…
September 8th, 2008 at 5:59 pmOf course, if we had real journalists in this country in the first place, we would not be where are today.
I ask myself everyday:
if there had only been more mainstream intrepid reporters from Day 1 that questioned:
September 8th, 2008 at 6:01 pm9/11 : The Mother False-Flag Issue of Our Time and the Sole Cause of our reckless foreign policy and this country’s ruined civilian economy. Now we are living under a Military economy.
Chris Matthews reminds me of dry drunk who’s Seroquel prescription ran out.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:02 pmPalin herself delivered “non-answers” and “a disarming smile” when she was asked about the corporate conduct of Wal-Mart
If one is a Repub, which is better? The “disarming smile” or the primetime sneer? The “non-answers” or the outright lies?
Their motto: “Who you going to believe? Me or your lying eyes?”
How do you know when a Republican is lying?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:04 pmMcPalin, aka, the Moose-Killer, is a just a shill and a prop for the extreme right-wing religious types. In national politics she is a know-nothing, because simply, she knows next to nothing. She already admitted that she “had not given the Iraq war much thought.” After five years of bloody imperial aggression and occupation in Iraq by Bush and Cheney and hundreds of billions of US taxpayer dollars wasted? Not much thought about it? She is Bush-in-drag, a female think-nothing and know-nothing.
And those “public opinion polls” going towards McCain/Palin? Many are run by Republican corporations and they decided that the initial right-wing GOP enthusiasm for Palin shown at the RNC gave them the opening to start rigging the polls towards McCain.
Remember, before every electronically rigged and fixed and stolen election, the Republicans need to rig the pre-election polls to make their electronic election theft plausible…
We need to return to hand-counted paper ballots in our elections to eliminate GOP electronic election theft, which has been going on since 1996 (Chuck Hagel, Nebraska, ES&S: he was the CEO of the company which “counted the votes” in which he ran as a novice… Very convenient… Nobody said “boo.” Folks trusted a Republican candidate not to cheat in the election…). Just do a search on “electronic election theft.”
September 8th, 2008 at 6:05 pmRaptureReady, why do you hate the Earth and all it’s creatures?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:10 pmPallid is a cynical VP choice that is all smoke and mirrors just to attract the Hillary voters.
Her candidacy has already set the women’s movement back many many years. I am man: and I am a feminist.
Pallid is all Tina Fey theatrics and veneer and shallow as they come.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:13 pmMathews didn’t get it right, he got the message from his bosses. Cater to the right wing buddy, or you’re out of here.
Does poor Sarah get banged up rolling in the aisles? Do you realize just how fcking stupid you sound Parodyll? I pray for you buddy, really I do. And if there is a God who answers my prayers, you and your your whole congregation will spontaneously combust. Sadly, there is no God to answer my prayer.
If this isn’t a leader better than this woman.
WTF does that mean, or is that a prelude to speaking in tongues? Try English, it’s pretty neat once you get the hang of it.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:17 pmWell, just how far has MSNBC (of the extreme left wing media) caved into the political demands of it corporate master, GE. We have Tweety and Olbermann off as anchors for the campaign and debates with Greggory as that ever so neutral anchor. We have Teety singing the praises of Palin. No one seems to want to stand up and fight the Republican spin that they are biased against the Republicans. No one wants to call the Republicans on their absolute lies. God forbid that the Democrat party (yes I will use the Freeper term of derision) seems to have the balls to call foul.
Wonder how this election will end?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:17 pmRaptureReady Says:
Matthews has finally got it right. She is a warrior who fights for the people, just look at her record. I’ve also heard that she prays with others in her church on a weekly basis for strength for the common man. If this isn’t a leader better than this woman.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Well Raptorready if you ever get READY to join us on Planet Earth let us know. What is the color of the sky on Planet Wingnut anyway?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:17 pmI agree with the real journalist concern. Just from my research of BushCo (including business news & SEC filings) I’d have thought, 60 Minutes would have a field day. They’ve been AWOL.

I agree. She is just right for the lying repugs.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:19 pmRaptureReady Says:
You can look in the Bible all you want but you wont see the word abortion. You WILL see that if a man hits a pregnant woman and it causes her to lose her baby it is NOT treated as a murder but as a property crime. You are delusional and as with most wingnuts really have no idea what you are talking about.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:20 pmNorma Rae I think not. More like crazy ray.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:20 pmAnd I thought leaders were supposed to listen to the common man and act on their concerns? Silly me…
Now which candidate will pray hardest for me?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:20 pmOh, for the love of God!!! Chris Matthews is a g*damned MORON.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:21 pmRaptureReady Says:
Firt, we have dominion over creatures. Second, when has the spiritual Governor Palin ever said that she wants to destroy this earth? Proof, please.
You are “RaptureReady”. As a member of the Endtimer’s club, you know the “proof”.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:23 pmDarryl, why do you hate GOD?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:25 pmJesus can kiss my a**.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:26 pmUgh, I need to wash off the stink after reading this bullshit! And RaptureReady, if Jesus does come back you usurpers better hide because He will be pissed off at how you have corrupted His name and message. You should be ashamed but by your actions, it is obvious you are not.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:27 pmPalin is not Norma Rae, Jack Bauer is not a role model, ‘These Colors Don’t Run!’ is not a foreign policy… it’s time to stop pretending that we live in a comic book or a movie.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:27 pmThese choices have REAL consequenses and we definetly should let REALITY get in the way of a ‘good story.’
Palin is the Republican’s vice-presidential nominee and we need to KNOW who she is before the election, not who she looks like or who she reminds of on ‘Friends’ but WHO she is.
RaptureReady
I agree palin is the best surprised candidate the repugs can come up with.
I also agree with your narrow mind views on religion. I like people to live the way I say and not how I do. That’s the way of our principled decision. Our way and mcchimpy way or their way, happy, informed, hope, and believing in the truth suckers.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:29 pmSarah is a profit, that’s for sure. I think Jesus could be concerned about her chronically bearing false witness against other Christians, much less the opposing political party.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:30 pmYou can kiss my a** too, D.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:30 pmPalin is another anti-labor, anti-union, free trade Republican that has done nothing for labor unions in her time in politics. She criticized community organizers who help the unemployed (some) former union workers who watched their job float overseas. AND, she is running with the most anti-union candidate in this election.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:30 pmRaptureReady says:
This law could change under the Governor. I see alot changes coming during the McCain/Palin administration that will be geared towards Jesus’ beliefs.
Hey, ever heard of something called the United States Constitution? It is people like you that have corrupted religion that has pushed me away from religion. Try reading all the scriptures rather than only the ones that support your narrow mined crap. What a shame hypocrites like you have done to religion. Mark 7:6
September 8th, 2008 at 6:31 pmMatthews does know that Norma Rae was a movie right? The right side does know that Jack bauer is a teevee character, right? How come the right side seems comfortable offering fake people as solutions to our problems? Don’t they have any ‘real’ people to use?
The right side: fake solutions, using fake people.
BTW: If Jesus likes the kind of ‘christian’ that Sarah Palin is, God Almighty must be very pissed off.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:32 pmGuess what’s not in the Founding Father’s job description for President or Vice President:
Being saved by the power of the holy spirit and wanting to spiritually change our government.
Nor is it a requirement.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:33 pmRaptureReady Says:
Why do you dislike one of his prophets. Jesus’ will shall be done. Look at the polls.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:26 pm
You are not one of his prophets, you delusional f ucker. Your god is the corporates cooking the polls.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:33 pmAmerica is being fed a line of sh!t a mile long and thinking it candy.
Why are so many of our countrymen idiots?
Oh forgot, Repukian Mafia loyality and Faux Noise, Far from Balanced.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:33 pmWe have a pinhead in the White House that talks to God. So far he’s ensured the death and homelessness of millions of Iraqis. Let’s try something different…
September 8th, 2008 at 6:34 pmI talked to God last night. She told me she can’t stand this Palin broad. (her exact words)
I asked why God? She responded. “she obviously doesn’t think I can do my job. If she had faith in me to do my job she wouldn’t be down there trying to do it for me.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:35 pmThe fact that she is saved by the power of the holy spirit and wants to spiritually change our government should be enough.
No, it shouldn’t.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:35 pmThe fact that she is saved by the power of the holy spirit and wants to spiritually change our government should be enough.
Only the home schooled, bedwetters think like you do. Next time you have a meeting, you could hold it in a phone booth – with room left over.
Religion is an introspective philosophy. If you truly believe, then why force me to believe what you do? Since God is a rumor, why not be more flexible, as you really do not know what God wants from any of us?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:35 pmYeah, and George W. Bush is like Woody Guthrie.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:35 pmPalin socked big oil with higher taxes and raked in billions and now is against Obamas windfall tax on big oil.
The hypocrisy is astounding.
But does these taxes lower fuel prices and encourage drill drill drilling in Alaska? Nope. Regular fuel went from $2.32 a gallon in March of 2007 to a whopping $5.13 a gallon in July of 2008.
See chart:
http://www.alaskagasprices.com/retail_price_chart.aspx
Good thing the Alaskan people got a check from the oil wealth fund for 1,200.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:36 pmSo Darryl, you don’t deny that you hate god?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:37 pmThat was then, this is now. My pastors and others believe that God is calling to cleanse this nation. This will done through his children, Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin (I think she has a little evangelism in her).
Is that what Todd Palin calls his ’special purpose’? – a little evangelism? She surely does have it in her. With the rumors coming out of Alaska, Sarah has had numerous evangelisms in her. She is a tart.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:40 pmRaptureReady Says it doesn’t have a clue that “the magical invisible faerie in the sky” is a made up story by ancient Goat Herders.
God never existed and never will, so go take your ignorant superstitions elsewhere, fool.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:40 pmThe fact that she is saved by the power of the holy spirit and wants to spiritually change our government should be enough. -RR
George Bush said the same thing, said he spoke to GOD. We got a bigger government, more deficits, wars.
What is spiritual about that? GOD doesnt need money, or debt. These are material not spiritual things.
Jesus was the prince of peace. We got war instead.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:41 pmI believe in the Constitution, but God’s laws come first. We are going to spiritually clean up this nation in November. There will be true morals and values in this nation.
Oh boy, another theocratic society freak.
Darryl, the GOP preaches about reserving rights to the people instead of the gummint. Why are you forcing your views on the people instead of allowing them to make choices for themselves?
September 8th, 2008 at 6:42 pmI believe in the Constitution, but God’s laws come first. We are going to spiritually clean up this nation in November. There will be true morals and values in this nation.
You have been in charge for 8 years. If the nation isn’t spiritually clean by now whose fault is it?

The Gov. has not lied. In the end she changed her mind and decided to not support the “Bridge to nowhere”. A person can’t change their mind. What other lies do you have?
That’s right, she changed her mind. And she kept the money for the bridge to nowhere because the federal government says, repugs can lie to get money for honest projects like the bridge to Stevens’ property and keep the money when its original use is downplayed.
palin has the right to use the money to shoot animals for fun.
Keep it coming rap, you make loads of sense.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:44 pmSo you don’t love Jesus. If you do, you should be supporting your brother and sister in the Lord. -RR
What I do with my belief system is none of the governments business. Lobbyists dont care about Jesus, they care about profits and getting the taxpayer to pay for it.
Pontius Pilate was a governor, Jesus was a communtiy organizer. He didnt run for publc office.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:44 pmRaptureReady: We are going to spiritually clean up this nation in November.
To phrase it in a way you supposedly will understand:
The we you refer to are hypocrites. You spout spirituality
but you and your ilk are the true devil. Now have a look at Matther 23: 14-15 and tell me you and your ilk are not the devil. And the only way true morals and values will be in this nation is to get rid of liars like you. What was it that Jesus said about the poor? Your people say screw ‘em. Real morals and value there. Hypocrite!!!!
The more I hear you spout, the further I move away from what you call religion. You have no shame.

Daryll, you need to stop lying. You know it makes Jesus cry when you do that!
Palin didn’t stop supporting the Bridge to Nowhere until Congress cut off the funding. When she now claims that she told Congress to take back the money, it’s a LIE.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:47 pmJesus was a liberal. Chew on that one RR.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:48 pmShe has a little evangelical in her? I thought she was married to Todd? That probably explains the Down Syndrome kid, I have always thought the evangelicals were missing a few good genes.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:50 pmShe’s all smoke and mooseheads… As the Aussies say, no worries, mate!
September 8th, 2008 at 6:50 pmYou know if you are Rapture Ready I say why wait on God to make up her mind?
Go to your garage, roll up the windows, keep the garage door shut and purr up the engine. In just seconds you will have sweet glorious rapture.
September 8th, 2008 at 6:53 pmFu(k the Jeebus club. I don’t want to join your delusion. Feel free to carry on, though. Just please keep it to yourself.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Jesus never left idiot. God is everywhere. YOUR intepretations of what religion is or should be are not the only ones that matter. Palin MISUSED her power to try to get her brother in law fired. She is a vindictive, worthless zombie who continues to LIE about her opposition to earmarks and the Bridge to nowhere and doesnt even know that Fannie Mae is a private enterprise. YOU dont care because like most brainwashed hiveminders you LIKE to be lied to you WANT to be lied to as long as she is saying what you want to hear. To you OBVIOUSLY honesty has no place in a leader only the sweet mesmerizing LIES that you like to be told. Grow up. The country doesnt need another dishonest snake oil salesman like current President Gump.
September 8th, 2008 at 7:22 pmRaptureReady….OH MY GOD! Where to start?? Maybe, just maybe, I can speak for some others when I say this, but now I’m speaking for myself… I AM NO ONE’S PROPERTY!!!!!!!!!! Neither are you, for that matter.I personally don’t give a rat’s as% who you pray to, you just don’t get to force YOUR religion down MY throat! The problem I’m having with Gov. Palin (there are MANY) is that she is extreme to the point of having an agenda for the rest of us. NOT WORKING FOR ME…That’s why we have separation of church and state…darn those smart forefathers! And another thing….butt out of my choices as a woman..I can decide things on my own.
September 8th, 2008 at 7:23 pmkaty, I believe we’ve all worked with that woman. The one who stabbed everybody in the back to get ahead and when she got ahead the bosses realized she didn’t know what she was doing.

Please attempt to maintain a minimum level of coherence in your posts. I didnt talk about any LAW. That is plain stupid. I talked about the Bible and Christianity was never any basis for our common law. As for what the McCain/Caribou Barbie administration might do it doesnt matter since it will never happen and even were that catastrophe to become real how do YOU know what they will do? Did you throw your I Ching? Did you use your Ouiji board? Your magic 8 ball? Did you use the same prognostication technique that led you to say that Huccabee was going to be President? You havent got a clue. You NEVER have the slightest idea what you are talking about.
September 8th, 2008 at 7:26 pmRR,Look at the countries of the Middle East that are on by Theocrats like Palin and make a comparison what you will get,Anarchy and terrorism and that`s what you`ll get here if Mcwars and Caribou Barbie steal this election.Religion does not belong in Gov`t that`s what our founding fathers wanted.Just study Monroes Federalist Papers and other documents and you will realize how much religion is devalued when you mix it with politics.It doesn`t work in other countries nor will it work here.
September 8th, 2008 at 7:27 pmWell said EugeneDebs. Now can we flag that demonic piece of crap since we can’t get him to run towards his rapture without us.
September 8th, 2008 at 7:28 pmIs there anyway we can take those words (#81)and send them off into cyperspace for all to see?? Seems Ms.Palin and her church have an agenda for all of us!! Needs to be known. Flippin’ scary..what the junk? as my daughter says…
September 8th, 2008 at 7:29 pmdid anyone hear the story about how/why her son “enlisted”?

But he hasn’t said a word about his main man-love, huckleberry. What’s the matter, didn’t he send you that signed poster of him walking on the water, yet?
September 8th, 2008 at 7:47 pmGov. Palin has claimed that the Pledge of Allegence was created by the Founding Fathers!
It was actually writtten in 1892. with the phrase “Under God” added in 1954.
Journalism Graduate????
September 8th, 2008 at 7:51 pmPlease don’t encourage RaptureReady. What a name for someone who most assuradely is not. All of this is equally disturbing. Vote for the least qualified person in the entire U.S., even if she’s a nutcase. All because the Republican bosses say so.
September 8th, 2008 at 8:06 pmI don’t get it. She dosen’t believe in global warming (among other things), and it seems like only a bunch of lunatics in the U.S. deny it. The rest of the world seems o.k. to acknowledge it, but not these idiots. She tried to ban books from the library, tried to fire her ex-brother-inlaw. Has a tremedous enemies list, had an affair (who cares really, but if anyone should it’s those crazy republicans). She doesn’t even know the pledge of allegance and belonged to a group that wanted to cede from the union.
Are all republicans crazy? Or stupid? Or both?
All I can say to rapture:
are you going to fight the good fight yourself — on the front lines?
September 8th, 2008 at 8:31 pm#95 Rich H says:
Are all republicans crazy? Or stupid? Or both?
all of the above,Rich.
and Daryll,the type of vision you are projecting for Palin and McCain kind of sounds like the way things are run in Saudi Arabia,Afghanistan,Iran and any other country serving religion instead of the people – you really want that for America?
September 8th, 2008 at 8:41 pmPalin to Norma Rae? Give me a break. Tweety overdosed on the koolaid. Tweety has been spending too much time watching DVD movies. I read the story and saw the movie “Norma Rae.” And Palin is not even close to Norma Rae. Now, Miss Congeniality, the title of the movie starring Sandra Bullock: yes.

Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews are to progressives as O’Reilly and Glen Beck are to conservatives.
Ding! Ding!
C’mon backup, I know you’ve seen this thread. That crowburger is still under the heatlamp, and it’s going to taste really nasty, all dried out. If you think you can duck me, think again, pilgrim. I’ll be posting this in every venue you inhabit at TP.
Ding! Ding!
September 8th, 2008 at 8:58 pmDamn it! I can’t believe I missed Daryll again. D your postings have become erratic in time and space. Might you offer us groupies a schedule we might be able to rely on. I mean I check all the remotely gay related threads and all but still I could use a heads up on when I should get naked
September 8th, 2008 at 9:02 pmoh and by the way Sarah’s story line is made up. I’ll admit less ridiculous than that of Jessica Lynch’s but still a tale which has been scripted
September 8th, 2008 at 9:03 pmYou do know that saying ‘Jesus was one of God’s Prophets” is ISLAMIC doctrine? Christians don’t believe that Jesus was ‘one of his prophets.’, God Made Flesh.
September 8th, 2008 at 9:11 pmProof that Rapture Ready is an Islamofascist Agent!
Thinly disguised Christianity that actually spreads ISLAM!
palin, a governor that gives rebates to citizens while the infrastructure melts away.
That’s what I call governing.
September 8th, 2008 at 9:18 pmI like palin because she sent her son to Iraq and doesn’t know where Iraq is on a map. But she will leave it in God’s hands.
That’s what I call a wise commander-in-chief.

Tee hee… I nailed his smarmy troll Cheney on that one too, barfly.
Indeed… cut and paste… our bestest friend when it comes to rubbing a troll’s nose in its own poo…
September 8th, 2008 at 9:28 pmI am not kidding, I overheard a conversation today in which the speaker actually said, ” I think she’s spunky,I might vote for him now” WTF is that? That is more messed up than I’ll vote for him because I base decisions like this on shit like whether or not I have created some F’d up fantasy of having a domestic lager with him is sort of working class bar. Spunky? WTF?
September 8th, 2008 at 9:35 pm“is sort” oughta be “in some sort” Sorry but still how can otherwise normal thinking people who never even heard her name more than a few days prior now be sold on “spunky”. I don’t understand how civics teachers even try to do this shit with a straight face…

WOW that is world class delusion. Tweety for the LEFT? INSANE. Tweety who said that Bush shines with a sort of sunny nobility? That Bush is like Atticus Finch? That only nutbags dont like him? MAN. Where can I find a drug that would make me so deluuuuuuusional?
September 8th, 2008 at 10:10 pmMAN. Where can I find a drug that would make me so deluuuuuuusional?
Try holding your breath – for ten minutes.
He just test-driving political themes.
That one blows oil, and steers to the right.
September 8th, 2008 at 10:22 pmchris isn’t progressive he’s just batty.
September 8th, 2008 at 10:59 pmRapture Ready,
You guys on the Religious Right think you’re so holy and high and mighty that you feel as if you have the right to be the arbiter of who is holy and who isn’t. Conveniently for the Republicans, it seems that it has been judged that Democrats and liberals are spawn of Satan while Republicans no matter what they do are the Saved and the elect.
What ever happened to, “Judge not, that you be not judged.” ?
September 9th, 2008 at 1:31 amWow! So the Republicans have Batman and Norma Rae in their ticket! We are doomed, we can’t win!
September 9th, 2008 at 5:49 amSorry if someone else mentioned this (I stopped reading around post # 70. Couldn’t take any more of off topic Daryll and the troll feeders).
September 9th, 2008 at 9:16 amMaybe Tweety forgot that it took DEMOCRATS to guarantee a forty hour work week. It took DEMOCRATS to guarantee a minimum wage. It is the REPUBLICANS that work to undermine unions and it is the REPUBLICANS who work in the best interest of the corporations NOT THE FACTORY WORKERS! Pull your head out of your sorry ass, Mathews.
As you can tell with the Norma Rae link that the GOP is not grounded in reality. To take fictionalized persons and portray them as real people in real life serves to prove that they will try to rationalize anything the established system throws at them as factual. What’s next? I shudder to think of the sheeple who will fall for such obvious baloney.
September 9th, 2008 at 6:30 pmOh yeah, and Harry Potter’s real and the world is full of magic. Think Romney and “magic underpants” and you get the idea. Ooga Booga! I just cursed the GOP! Call the preachers to “excerise” the demons!!
