*BAM* Cavuto brought out the big guns yesterday
Edited on Thu Nov-02-06 04:03 PM by underpants
Bernard Kerik and Pat Boone were both guests on Your World w/Cavuto today (November 1, 2006). Kerik was on to talk about whether or not we should trust Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki, but of course, Cavuto steered him off that trivial course and onto the main course, that of bashing John Kerry. Kerik was predictably appalled by Kerry's remarks and positive they would be used against us:

It's going to be all over the Arab stations. Al Jazeera, particularly, will run this: The troops in the Middle East are stupid and that's why they're there. And now did they get it? They got it from a U.S. senator.
Roughly 40 minutes later, singer Pat Boone was on to talk about how critically important is that Republicans retain control of the government. At Cavuto's prompting, Boone, obviously a very thirsty Kool-aid drinker and regular Fox watcher, said almost the exact same thing:

Cavuto:

We had Bernie Kerik here, Pat, who said this will be propaganda for insurgents.

Boone:

Exactly.

Cavuto:

Do you buy that?

Boone:

Yes, because, you know, Al Jazeera is playing all of this and they're saying see, the Americans don't agree with their president. The Americans don't agree with their military, so let's press on. Let's keep on killing them.

1. Pat Boone. Bad actor. Bad singer. Bad American.
Put the glass of Kool-Aid down Pat, and back away from it.

Has Pat Boone done ANYTHING CONSTRUCTIVE since the 1950's?

4. "...ANYTHING CONSTRUCTIVE since the 1950's?"
You're counting his stuff from the 50's as constructive? You forgot his heavy metal album.

Wikipedia entry for Pat Boone

In 2006, Boone penned an article for WorldNetDaily in which he argued that Democrats and others who are against the Iraq War cannot, under any circumstances, be considered patriotic.<1> He also recently was interviewed by Neil Cavuto on Fox News, where he expressed his outrage against the opponents of George W. Bush (namely the Dixie Chicks) that their criticisms of the President showed they did not "respect their elders".

2. Wow, they'll try anything, won't they? Remember, Cheney
did the same thing back in '04. If you vote for the Dems, they'll hit us again! This is just more of the same. It will only be different if the American Sheeple have woken up enough to see through their lies and fear mongering.

5. Cavuto is a Right-wing whore, but...
Here's a story about him. When I did tech support for Micron he called in with a major problem with a SCSI setup. I stayed on the phone with him for nearly two hours, and we talked about all kinds of stuff while waiting for re-boots, etc. Eventually we got the problem solved and he asked when I came to work the next day (this was on a Sunday). I told him...

The next day I walk in and everyone is telling me to get into the bosses office ASAP. I figure I'm cooked for something... But Neil Cavuto called my boss to tell her how great I was and stayed on the line until I arrived. I thought that was really cool...

But he's still a Right-wing whore!!!
