25. That phrase really does mean something. Doug turns it on
for noise and I can't even hear it.

6. Tweety and Russert: What a joke.
They adore each other, and their Wealth. What a joke.

12. Sent my emails this weekend. Got a response from Verizon today.
We truly appreciate your choice of Verizon as your communications company. And we value you as our customer. We also appreciate your time and interest in expressing your opinions about the company's advertising on MSNBC's "Hardball." Be assured that we have received your e-mail and your concerns have been heard.

Verizon

"Hear me now.." Good!!!!!

14. Have you let "Hardball" know why?
Call them at 202-824-6707 amd leave a comment. Tweety won't care, but just to let those workers who check the messages understand that the public is angry and maybe they will be swayed to do something. Tweety knows that he is carrying water for the admistration, but I want him to know that we know this. The media lies to us everyday, the least that we can do is call and harrass them when they do. It's as easy as posting.

10. I am but
I would tune in right away if I hear of someone getting on and humiliating the little Tweety Turd and bitchslapping him on the air. I would watch Wes Clark, if the Turd ever has him on again.

23. ABSOLUTELY
And I would encourage people to continue contacting the sponsors. I'm sick of this non-stop lineup of wingnut commentators without any ethics or desire to inform the American public.

24. Yup-The Michael Moore comment with Biden giggling too did me in
for that show, along with the Fascist Friday lineup. I can get news somewhere else.

27. Olberman is all I watch
Bought a Sirius satellite radio so I wouldn't have to listen to any of 'em. I despise Tweety, but CNN is no better. And Fox... yeech! Only watch that when Clark is on.

28. Tweety introducing Kate O'Beirne
and her book 'Women Who Make the World Worse', he then said, "Speaking of which, we'll get to Hillary in a minute.."

On his typically skewed panel with Sharpton, O'Beirne, and Scarkiller...

Does it get any clearer?
