[elizm]

[rocktivity]

1. No doubt Tweety will be "in the zone"

asking about her impending divorce, her Israel/Palestine remark, and the counter-protestors.

:headbang:
rocknation

[RevCheesehead]

2. She's on NOW.

[stopbush]

3. Throw a bone to us cube rats, wouldya?

[rodeodance]

4. she looks good considing the long week she has had.

[rodeodance]

5. tweety says he will ask tough question--if your son had been killed

in afganistan--would you feel the same?

[rniel]

6. he'll say

Why do you hate america.

[rodeodance]

8. cindy says go after the terrrorists not the whole country where innocents

get killed. even in afgan.

[RevCheesehead]

7. Tweety: Would you feel this way if your son was killed in Afghanistan?

Cindy is holding her own. "Why do we invade entire countries when we're looking for a few select men?"

[rodeodance]

9. I think Tweety is being rough on her--now bringing up division in her

family.

[rodeodance]

11. Cindy saying her side of the family is Democrat while the other is Repub

and we have always had good natured debates.

[RevCheesehead]

10. Tweety's dragging in "the Sheehan Family"

Cindy: "we've always been on opposite sides of the political fence."

[liberaliraqvet26]

12. SOME LIBERAL MEDIA

[rodeodance]

14. tweety still harping about why the other side of family release a statemen

t that they knew would be broadcast.

[RevCheesehead]

13. These family members never really had a relationship with her son.

Sister says they're shocked at the family's response.

[rodeodance]

16. tweety asked cindy if other side of family was put up to it by the Right-

and smart response by Cindy--you will have to ask them.

[shoopnyc]

15. JERK!

This weekend, on his OTHER show, he didn't even mention her! Just talk about presidential vacations! I'm pissed...

[RevCheesehead]

17. And now, the divorce.

Tweety, you're an asshole.

[RevCheesehead]

18. Cindy: This is another personal tragedy, and I won't talk about it now.

[rodeodance]

20. YEAH Cindy--she shut Tweety off by saying that is all she will be saying

about the family. tweety said thanks and they went to the commercial.

[elizm]

26. Especially liked her comment...

That their problems are just another casualty of this war...

[autorank]

19. She's handling Chris. Chris is restrained, respectful almost. Wow!

He asked permission to "ask a tough question." That's a first for Chris.

"Osama bin Ladin is still on the loose." Thanks Cindy.

"We support the troops." By bringing them home. Great Cindy.

"I am compelled to do this."

OK for now, 7:13. Chris is not rabid...yet. He's got the opponents lined up.

[rodeodance]

whow--to bring up all this relentless questing of the family was horrible

of Tweety!!!!

[autorank]

82. Yeah, Chris sank real fast. What crappy in-laws No place at the table

for them next than Thanks Giving.

[KeepItReal]

21. Matthews is full of sh*t! How dare he bring up her family business?

And he said "Bush went to Afghanistan and got the people that did 9/11" - a bald-faced lie!!

[FrenchieCat]

22. Matthews is now doing the "spread of the screw her via smear"

coverage....

Soon, he will have on Cindy's husband and her in-laws....so that it can become an intra family battle instead of a grieving mother demanding question of our commander in chimp.

She still did well with her answers to the asshole.

[rodeodance]

23. I am going to email tweent and give him my two cents worth. good gawd!

[TheCowsCameHome]

24. The relatives are using that beast Melanie Morgan to get their word out

That scum bitch from KSFO is one miserable $&*@. Ugh.

[rodeodance]

25. nominated--try to keep on top --hopefully people will email Hardball

about this disgracefull interview.

[rodeodance]

28. cindy back on---crying saying her son should still be alive --

[rodeodance]

31. tweety--cindy, the pres. is a stubborn man--He has been lead to believe

that he can make a difference in the ME--bla bla. tweety avoided the wmd and other 'reasons'!!!

[Webster Green]

27. Too bad our dem leaders can't stay on message like Cindy!

The war was/is a mistake. Bush is a liar.

So true & easy to comprehend!

Dems: Throw off the pink tutus and speak truth to power! We're still waiting.

[rodeodance]

79. yes, she did very well

[RevCheesehead]

29. No WMD's, no link between Sadam and 9/11...

Cindy's doing a spectacular job. Obviously, this is hard for her. She begins to tear up, but keeps going.

You go, girl - I'm praying for you. :thumbsup:

[liberaliraqvet26]

30. He sounds like a right wing hack

[rodeodance]

33. tweedy--asked if she would run for Pres. what!!!!!!!! cindy said no.

[FrenchieCat]

37. No...if she was running for congress.....

not for President!

She probably should run...but she needs to wait till this deed is done.

[snowbear]

38. I thought he said Congress....

I didn't hear him say President :shrug:

At least he complemented Cindy.. He said she knows more than half of em, so she should run.. :o

[KeepItReal]

32. YES!!!! Perm bases in Iraq...Drumbeat for war in Iran!! I LOVE THIS LADY!

She hit a Three-pointer then came back and dunked on punk assed Chris Matthews!

Kudos, Cindy!!

:-)

p.s.
With all due respect: F-U Chris Matthews!

[rodeodance]

tweedy actually said--you should run for pres cause you know a lot

more of what is going on than some politians. that was his closing after her went after her.

[longship]

42. Congress, not pres.

n/t

[snowbear]

43. He said she should run for Congress.. not President...

:D

[rodeodance]

50. ok thanks. congress thanks for the correction.

[GreenPartyVoter]

36. Cindy is putting out info that otherwise would never be heard on that show

at least not by Chris, anyway.

[chelsea0011]

34. Two women who support...Now we'll see if Matthews has a spine

[FrenchieCat]

39. Aw God......

How come we get balance when we don't fucking need any? Yet when we want balance, we don't get any? Mmmmmmm.....

[chelsea0011]

81. and why is it necessary for balance ? can't a story just be

about one person?

[oldtime dfl_er]

35. Cindy was great, Tweety was an ass

He came off as an apologist for the WH. Cindy was on message, poignant, and properly STUBBORN!!!!!

[rodeodance]

41. yes, it ended up good.

[rodeodance]

44. now he will talk with moms who do not agree with Cindy position.

[bluedog]

40. memo to chris:.have your sons enlist!!

I remember when you were so afraid that there might have been a draft.you were against this invasion.now you defend this rotten liar........

[rodeodance]

48. one women in the red shirt--looks like one ...woman!! cowboy hat and

all. Red shirt-red rreeeeeeeeed

[FrenchieCat]

45. But, but, but....

Debi Bohannan's son is still alive.

That's not a balanced view....far as I'm concerned. :shrug:

[HeeBGBz]

46. Now we got the opposition

Hardly articulate

[snowbear]

49. OMG... LOL... the woman in the red shirt w/the ugly cowboy hat...

She looks JUST like a Freeper :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[FrenchieCat]

52. She looked like Bush's mother.....

Hey...maybe that was her under the hat.

[KeepItReal]

55. THEY REFUSE TO ADMIT THAT MOST OF THE "INSURGENTS" ARE IRAQI

<EOM>

[Webster Green]

47. Freepers on now....

Hoo boy! Same old stuff.

[rodeodance]

51. the other women is talking better (opposition).

[rodeodance]

53. the bad people in irag are the ones who do not want the Iraqi people

to enjoy Freedom.

[rodeodance]

59. great--tweety is YELLING at this women--she has a second language

problem AND a difficult question and Tweety is going after her. what the hell is wrong with HIM. He actually yelled at her.

[chelsea0011]

65. sorry, she volunteered to speak on behalf of the war. she has it coming

[FrenchieCat]

58. I don't think so.....

She's very general about it all. Like she doesn't really know much. Matthews is trying to get it out of her.....She don't seem to know a damn thing....(including how to apply make-up--sorry).

[snowbear]

68. Yeah, well...

She sure as hell looked better than that Freeper in the red shirt who Tweety interviewed first!

[rodeodance]

72. you are right as she started out ok (better than woman in red)--but got

frustrated when Tweety went after her so harsh.

[Webster Green]

61. They are in front of some kind of militia banner....

Oklahoma Militia for Freedom.

I bet they are a fun bunch to hang out with!

[TheCowsCameHome]

75. Yep! 20 guys, in that picture, 30 teeth total.

Good ratio there.

[FrenchieCat]

77. Yeah...Webster Green.....that is IF

They may be a "FUN" bunch IF You like hanging upside down from a tree!

[chelsea0011]

54. Iraqis are an abused wife.......'nuff said

And to Lamotte, the Iraqi woman who supports the war. One of the reasons the constitution was held up had to do with simple rights for WOMEN! "bad people" are making it hard. There you have it. We are getting killed because of bad people.

[rodeodance]

76. that abused coment came from the oppositon women in red.

[chelsea0011]

80. I couldn't beleive that was the analogy she came up with

[Bumblebee]

56. He was respectful in the end. She will be on Anderson Cooper now

[shoopnyc]

57. This woman is forgetting her script! eom

[snowbear]

60. Yeah... pretty embarrassing...

They didn't brief her, did they? :silly:

[GreenPartyVoter]

62. Deleting.. thought this was a post about Cindy..

[FrenchieCat]

70. Talking about the Iraqi woman who represented Cindy's opposition

Along with Mr. Bush Sr. (what's her name again?) wearing a cowboy hat.

[GreenPartyVoter]

71. Thanks I don't actually have the show on so am a little out of the loop

[FrenchieCat]

63. Iraqi woman didn't know shit.....

and still made more sense then Bush!

So ya know we are really screwed!

[rodeodance]

67. give her some slack-she was under fire from Tweety and English is

nother first language.

[FrenchieCat]

74. No slack to be given.....

When the microphone was put in front of her face...she needed to be ready.

It's like she understood the questions...she just didn't know the answer.

Bad people are the enemy. Jeez....did we really need that??? :shrug:

[rodeodance]

78. whatever--i will give her some slack.

[rodeodance]

64. Tweety had no right to be that way with her--actually yelled at her when

she was stumbling for words to say.

[chelsea0011]

69. she volunteered to speak for the war. this ain't a game of checkers

[shoopnyc]

66. He should have asked her...

"what noble cause is your son fighting for?"

[snowbear]

73. She'd just repeat the talking points line though....

Same ol' tired line that Bush keeps repeating..
