Tweety is poking holes in his story
Now he is challenging him...

Liar saying Kerry had a master plan to get 3 purple hearts, so he could go home.

Tweety is shooting him down.

Made him admit he cannot swear to this in a court of law.

and admits he just wants to discredit Kerry on the basis of his "feelings."

Hell: we should vote FOR Kerry BECAUSE he had a 'Master Plan' that included being lauded (in the future) for walking through buzzing bullets and bouncing betties ....

Kerry is even SMARTER than we thought ....

Master Plan ? ... He is the MASTER CYLINDER ! ... (warning: Felix the Cat joke)

42. He needs to do a lot more than this to overcome the damage...
...he's done over the past four years. One "atta-boy" doesn't wipe out years of spewed crap.

Until then, he's just plain "Tweety", IMHO.

19. Here's my running account, per Tivo!
Edited on Thu Aug-19-04 06:14 PM by VolcanoJen
Thurlow is stepping all over his own words. It's getting pretty hot in there. :D

Tweety: "What I don't understand is why you deserve the Bronze Star, but Kerry doesn't deserve it because he wasn't under enemy fire? Didn't you do the same thing? Wasn't this the same action?"

Thurlow: "I feel like, well, I got it because I saved the boat, and some people's lives."

Tweety: "Kerry saved Rasmann's life."

Thurlow: "I'm not quibbling about the award." (WTF?!!???!!)

Tweety: (snarkily)"OH YES YOU ARE, sir. You are out here in an advertisement, saying, quote 'When the chips were down, you couldn't count on Kerry.'"

Thurlow: "He had a master plan, a political plan..."

Tweety: "How can you say, in all honesty, that Kerry had a master plan? How do you know, in any real way?"

Thurlow: "Because he engineered three purple heart awards that allowed him to go home early."

Tweety: "That's just your account. He DID win the Purple Hearts. You can't tell me how you know he had this plan. Did YOU have a plan to win the Bronze Star? I don't get it. Could you swear, under oath, in court, that Kerry had engineered a plan to win these awards?"

Thurlow: "In court? Of course I couldn't. But I'm not in a court of law here."

GO TWEETY!!!!

41. Just goes to show that it's the media
who could shred this house of smearboat cards in a day, if they didn't prefer to keep it going.

This is why Kerry can "attack" or "defend" all he likes, but if the media won't show this kind of thing, just keeps saying it's his word against Thurlow's, it doesn't matter what he does.

I'm certainly pleased to hear ONE talking head is on it. We can only hope the sharks will turn once they smell blood in the water.

20. What a despicable fool Thurlow is

Matthews is destroying him bit by bit. Thurlow cannot even answer a single question truthfully - instead relying on ad hominum attacks and third hand reports from other members of his "team."

This so called "Kerry master plan" he speaks of is fucking ludicrous.

Edited on Thu Aug-19-04 06:15 PM by rumguy
He won't survive the week as a viable critic. While I'm not watching this interview, from the sounds of it Thurlow is getting cut to shreds.

And then there is the problem of his own military records backing up Kerry's story. Oh but wait...I forgot Kerry is so all-powerful he got Thurlow his bronze star too...

You've got the Post reporter who will go chapter & verse into how he got Thurlow's records and completely debunk this "after action" crap.

Next comes Cleland with the hammer on the entire operation.

Tweety's pissed and gonna let the good guys win this one.

47. Tweety was good but he missed the key question

"Mr. Thurlow, you got a bronze star for the same action as Mr. Kerry.
When you were awarded the bronze star, did you read (or have read to
you) the citation? Did the citation mention enemy fire? Why didn't
you object to that language at the time?"

48. Tweety's Not Gonna Be Played With This One...
The dirty tricks of this campaign are even more hardball than what Mr. Hardball likes and appears he's ready to start really blowing the lid off of this.

Certainly he's been privvy to all the info we have seen and more and knows what a pile of slime and shit this Slimeboat crap is. He's had to measure how to attack the story to see if became one. Now it has and it's turned ugly. He is one of the few in the media who can completely undress this operation. You can tell he hates being played. And he knows he's been played a lot the last couple years.

49. Credit to Chris Matthews
for holding Thurlows feet to the fire today. Thank you Chris. I do wish some of the other media types were this tough with the other swift boat liars. They wouldn't have gotten nearly the exposure that they have up to now. And I hope Kerry nails these lying turncoats for what they are. They are besmirching the integrity of the United States Navy every time they open their mouths and every American veteran should be appalled by their words and actions.

Credit to Chris, first of all. He took the lying bastard apart.

And Keith will undoubtedly have some follow -up on this.

The other day he referred to Ohio as a swing state and immediately coughed loudly and obviously.

He's not gonna let this one fly by either.

after Tweety ripped O'Neill to pieces last week?

The only bad news here is that Tweets probably won't get the chance to slice and dice any more of these asswipes on his show, cause they'll be whining about how unfair he was to O'Neill and Thurlow.
