FLYNN: It was not the largest march since Vietnam.
SARANDON: According to the local police, it was the largest-I don’t know...
DONAHUE: That would be anti-war march, I think you believe.
SARANDON: That was the anti-war march.
FLYNN: Could I say something about the march?
DONAHUE: Please, Dan. Yes.
FLYNN: I mean, look, you had people at that march chanting, George Bush, you can’t hide, we charge with you genocide. It was organized by a bunch of...
(APPLAUSE)
FLYNN: ... of communists...
DONAHUE: Right.
FLYNN: ... and yet you went there and spoke!
DONAHUE: All right. So it’s their language...
(CROSSTALK)
DONAHUE: They’re over the top. They’re excessive...
SARANDON: There were church groups. There were not one group organizing...
FLYNN: Look, you were-you got in...
SARANDON: ... you know...
FLYNN: ... for what they would...
SARANDON: That’s not the point.
FLYNN: ... once call “useful idiots.”
SARANDON: That’s not the point I’m making.
FLYNN: The bunch of dupes that went there...
DONAHUE: Dupes?
SARANDON: I’m saying-this woman says, why do I have a right to talk? I only have a right as a citizen.
FLYNN: Why didn’t you speak out about those guys saying that George Bush is guilty of genocide? The whole crowd was chanting that...
ROBBINS: Listen, you can’t control...
FLYNN: ... We charge you with...
ROBBINS: ... thousands of people!
FLYNN: But you can say, Shame on you!
ROBBINS: You happened to find a couple of lunatics...
FLYNN: Shame on you for...
(CROSSTALK)
FLYNN: ... throwing around a word like genocide so loosely!
ROBBINS: Shame on you for putting those people’s words in our mouths!
(CROSSTALK)
FLYNN: You could have spoke out against it, but you were silent!
(guess I didnt read it your way...I felt Robbins and Sarandon were floundering)

Flynn wasn't sufficiently well prepared or articulate enough to (ever) point out there indeed WAS one group responsible for organizing the event; that the group was A.N.S.W.E.R.; that they are a creature of the communist, indeed Stalinitic, World Workers Party, and so on. Instead he baldly asserted that the organizers where communists, failed to support this except by assertion, and came off looking to the uninformed sheeple like a McCarthesque nut.
