Was Ben Affleck sober?
..and liberal actor Ben Affleck..TYPO -- that should be Ben 'AFLAC' (quack!)
:-)
later read
Well they did, let's be honest about it. The president said we would not sit back and allow the North Koreans test a long range missile. They tested one. The president said we would not sit back and watch North Korea become a nuclear power. It appears that the did. The president said we would not let Iran become a nuclear power. They're pressing ahead full bore to become one.
I watched the show. If winning means that Pletka shouted as loudly as Mahr and Affleck then she won. Did she convert anyone? No, but then again it's always a liberal audience so neither did Mahr.
Good for her! We need someone like her in a visible position in our government to make these points to the American people (and the rest of the world, for that matter).
She won't be invited back. That transcript is something else. She bitchslapped Maher and dismissed Affleck.
Americans are uninformed because the media is unwilling to risk losing audience share by putting this stuff out there regularly, as part of their responsibility to the public. People would rather watch Lost than learn about our world, but they will then bitch for four years about how "the government isn't doing enough to educate our children".
If every American spent four hours per election cycle researching the facts about the issues, Republicans would have nothing to fear from the Democrats, ever.
And there are freepers who are actually fans of that appeaser, Lou Dobbs?
I haven't finished the thread, but if someone finds a link to this exchange, please keep me in mind.
Danielle Pletka was excellent but had to keep talking over moonbat talking points which is a futile to combat.
It's 1936 all over again, The politicians who see the reality of the situtation are calling for confrontation. Meanwhile, the opposition party is winning hearts and minds (and votes) by offering peace instead of war to an ignorant electorate. The public wants peace and votes accordingly.....
....and then Hitler ionvades Poland (Woops) or (today) Al Qaeda types nuke Israel or Chicago or London. It's been done before. Democracies are easy to manipulate when it comes to these matters. I just wonder who gets to be Winston Churchill (assuming Western Civilization survives). John Kerry is my choice for Neville Chamberlin. He'll be in Tehran blowing their President in Spring of 2008 for sure.
Pletka! Pletka! Pletka! Woot!
For anyone who missed the link to the transcript at the top of the thread:

Priceless.
Hey anytime someone can verbally slap Maher around the way he takes great pleasure in doing to others I give a thumbs up.That being said I don't need Danielle Pletka or George Bush to inform me North Korea and Iran are evil regimes, I came to that conclusion all by myself !!!
Classic!
As to Lou Dobbs' suggestion that we pull out of Iraq, her reply could have been, "You people have sat here all night worried at how WORDS are bringing us more terrorism, when there is nothing we could do that would foster more terrorism than that what Lou Dobbs just suggested."
BUMP!
I watched the clip and saw what one USUALLY sees in these cases- a bunch of ignorant idiots who refuse to be confused by the facts when facing a person who actually KNOWS something about it.
Mahar and Affleck should go back to what they are paid to do- entertain, albeit in a mediocre fashion. Dobbs is just good at appeasing the nutjob who pays him.
