Yank in a bit from Breaking

I just watched it. She was giving her predictions for '03. Brenda said Bush will be reelected. Ratner said, and I quote, "unless he messes up the war -- I hope." Brenda: "You hope"? Ellen: "Well, I don't want him to win the election."

[unspun]

Gilda? I thought she passed away.

Somebody tell Gene Wilder, quick.

[Mo1]

Ratner said, and I quote, "unless he messes up the war -- I hope." Brenda: "You hope"? Ellen: "Well, I don't want him to win the election."

Well Gosh Ellen .. I didn't know that you HOPED for the deaths of more American's

Gee Ellen, tell us what you really think

That is the most DIGUSTING thing I have ever heard .. it's up there with Chris Mathews comment of Bill Clinton missing his chance at greatness when 3,000+ people were murdered on 9/11

[Mo1]

DIGUSTING should be DISGUSTING

[BUSHdude2000]

I saw her say that Hitlery wasn't stupid enough to run in '04 and that any Dem candidate is just going to be "the sacrificial lamb".

[alnick]

Disgusting is right. I stayed up past my bedtime to see this because I had to hear it for myself. I thought that maybe the person who posted it misunderstood something. Even Ellen Ratner couldn't say something so reprehensible, could she?

Well, I'm glad I heard it with my own ears because she did come out and say that she hopes that the war is "messed up" so that Bush won't be re-elected.

[McGruff]

I'm watching Alan Colmes on Fox News Channel trying to make the point that the current crisis with North Korea is happening because Pres. Bush called North Korea part of the Axis of Evil.

Talk about the loony left!

[Texas_Jarhead]

Her comments just prove that liberals are most concerned with power. Power is what they crave, it is their opiate. Without power they cannot improve all of our lives by the imposition of their agenda. BTW, that bitch sickens me.

[JohnHuang2]

To quote Der Schlickmeister, Ellen Ratner was only saying what most Democrats in Washington say on 'the back roads' every day.

[Mo1]

Well, I'm glad I heard it with my own ears because she did come out and say that she hopes that the war is "messed up" so that Bush won't be re-elected.

OK .. let see the libs want the war to fail which means more American will be killed

The Libs want to economy to fail which means many more will be unemployed

and the Libs want to raise the taxes

Oh call me crazy, but I'm thinking this is not a good way of winning back the White House

[MJY1288]

Talk about a Leftist Liberal showing his-or-her's true colors?

Ellen Ratner would rather see Presdident Bush make decisions that would result in the United States losing the War on Terrorism along with American Soldiers losing their lives defending our nation, Instead of aglorious victory against those who carried out the attacks of 9/11. Just as long as it resulted in George W. Bush not being re-elected in 2004.

The true colors of the Liberal Left exposed, PLAIN AND SIMPLE

[EGPWS]

Oh call me crazy, but I'm thinking this is not a good way of winning back the White House

What would one expect from a proponent of the party whose #1 agenda has been set in concrete for years to do nothing but destroy the political opposition at any cost?

[Mo1]

The true colors of the Liberal Left exposed, PLAIN AND SIMPLE

True .. but WHEN are they going to be held accountable for their words

I don't have a problem with folks questioning why were are going to war .. I think questioning is good

But to come right out and say that you HOPE the war fails so that Bush would lose the election?? .. that is saying you HOPE for the deaths of Americans and the death of America

When are these IDIOTS going to realize this is not a friggin game .. this is serious .. We are on the verge of a war .. Good Lord when are they going to grow the hell up

Sorry for my rant .. but this comment really upset me ..

[MJY1288]

Yes John, Ellen Ratner was only expressing what the affluent "Elite" Anti-American Democrats wish for each and every day.

After all? What is the big deal about American Soldiers coming home in body bags? Just as long as it means the Democrats win back control of the Senate and possibly the White House in 2004?

It’s a sad day when a Liberal like Ellen Ratner are able to show just how shallow she is.

Ellen Ratner! …..SHAME ON YOU

[EGPWS]

When are these IDIOTS going to realize this is not a friggin game .. this is serious .. We are on the verge of a war .. Good Lord when are they going to grow the hell up

When they lose their power and influence because of their game.

[JohnHuang2]

What is the big deal about American Soldiers coming home in body bags?

Recall the Charlie Rangel 'rule', a la, 'every-100-point-drop-in-the-stock-market-equals-another-4-seat-gain-for-House-Democrats'?

Secretly, I can imagine Democrats devising a Rangel rule for the Iraq war, a la, 'every-100-body-bags-equals-another-4-seat-gain-for-House-Democrats'.

The reporter for NBC nightly news said the same thing. Whatever other drivel she spouted afterward was replaced by a Sienfeld rerun....Serenity now!
