Tweety statement

[goddess40]

I may have heard it incorrectly but I thought Tweety said near the end of his May 2 show that Democrats were more corrupt than Republicans. Did anyone else hear this?

1. wouldn't be a surprise if he had, would it? he's such a slimeball.

3. Tip O'Neil must be rolling over in his grave

2. There is a good chance he said that.

Maybe he asked it as a question....

[SteppingRazor]

4. Dunno. And May 2 transcripts won't be ready until tomorrow...

unlike the other posters here, though, I really doubt he would have said this -- thought it, maybe, but it just doesn't sound like the sort of thing he says as an explicit statement. Of course, I could certainly see him asking something like "But aren't Democrats even more corrupt than Republicans?"

[fearthem]

5. No, he didn't; he said they were equally corrupt, the two parties, that is

[FrenchieCat]

6. Which is a bunch of bullshit.....that he wants voters to think.....

He was basically giving the signal to treat Republicans and Democrats evenly.....even if it is not "even" in reality.

He and his Whores were instructing the viewers to judge the "individual", not the party.

Biased asshole is what he is!

[fearthem]

7. Oh, I agree -- he's a snake!

[gratuitous]

8. Well, we all know how worthwhile it is to bribe the minority party

:wtf:

[Cosmocat]

9. Naw ... It was "equally" ...

Which has been his meme with this thing all along ...

EVERY darn time they do a piece on it, they spend 14 minutes pointing out every piece of information, which has DIRECT ties to republicans, they make sure not to flat out call them scumbags, then in the last 15 seconds add in, "and the democrats are just as bad" without adding one piece of evidence to support it ...

It ain't that all the Ds are saints ... It IS that for any one D that has some skunk on him there are 5 Rs nose deep in manure, and that this Abromov thing is EXCLUSIVELY a republican thing ...

They KNOW that Abramov did not give cent one to Ds, and that the connection from tribes that did business with Abramov to Ds is a tertiary one, but they still use that to connect them ...

10. Well there you have it - I'm sure that Tweety received his 2006/8

campaign/talking points/lies.

We're going to hear that for two plus years.

Is anyone available to prepare a record - a document organized side-by-side showing corruption for the last 14 years - 1992 2006.

We are going to need solid black-on-white facts to counter all this because the corruption of the Bush admin is starting to blur and it is impossible to remember it all.

Perhaps someone knows about already existing lists?

11. no, he didn't say it, but he clearly wanted to spread the blame
