What happened to Ralph Nader?

[ringmastery]

Wasn't he a pretty great consumer advocate once upon a time in the 60's and 70'? What made him turn into an egomaniac?

4. He was a consumer advocate

and I use to love the guy. I remember watching him on the old Donahue show...the old show from Chicago, and he blew the whistle on many a company. I LOVED him.

He's got to be working for KKKRove. He has to be. No one who cares about this country and what this fascist regime has done, would run against the Dems this year. He's a republican operative. There's no other explaination. He HAS to be a republican.....that's why he's an egomaniac.

5. My God

So . . . his tireless decades of consumer advocacy, which screwed many a Republican, were all just an elaborate scheme to win the trust of the Left, so he can execute his "Republican operative" scheme?

8. No, he's a Leninist through and through

He's beleiving his whole "It must get worse before it gets better" BS. His hope is that eventually things will get so bad, we will revamp the whole system, storm the gates of parliament and institute a Bolshevik Workers Paradise.

I liken Nader more to Lenin, Stalin or Mao than a Republican.

11. Unless Nader has been

sleeping or had his head buried in the sand for the last 3 1/2 years, he knows damn good and well what the Bush cabal has been doing to THIS country and the WORLD. Does he not give a shit or what??? There's no POSSIBLE way that ANYONE who actually gives a shit about what has happened, would run against the Democrats this year! He has to be a repuke. I don't give a shit what kind of "good" he did for the last 30 fucking years. 2004 is what's important and he has just shown me that he's a self centered SOB REPUKE.

Ralph the Repuke.

6. He was a real progressive when he wasn't helping the BFEE steal elections

[absyntheNsugar]

7. Actually, not really

He only went after deep pockets - not really for the consumer but who he could win the most $$$ from.

9. nader's the same, but the dems and the nation moved rightward

10. Nader's right and the world is wrong?

That's rich. :eyes:
