Official "Guy James Show" thread---please keep kicked

[BeachBuckeye]

First of all, thank you to all who helped out on the fund-drive this past week. We're solvent thru September now thanks to you.

We're going to have a lively program today. We'll have Clinton Administration Deputy Treasury Secretary, Roger Altman at 3:30. He'll be talking about the great Bush economy.

Mari333 will be with us around 4:10 for a few minutes and then at around 5:05 we'll have Heather Bouchey, a top economist for the Center for Economic and Policy Research to discuss her report titled Hardship in America". It should be a great show.

call toll-free at 1-888-602-7500-7501-7502-7503-7504

My Best,
Guy

[Dudley_DUright]

1. I hope we can get a rational economic team

back in charge. Roger Altman is a key Kerry economic adviser (and of course was a key figure in Clinton's economic team). I will be very interested in what he has to say about how to clean up the mess Bush has left us with. Again, my condolences to Mari and her family in their time of grief. On a happier note, glad to hear that the fund drive was a success, but I wish we could find a more long term solution.

[BeachBuckeye]

2. "but I wish we could find a more long term solution."

You and me both. LOL!!

[proud patriot]

[Cha]

It's real professional!

[in_cog_ni_to]

33. OMG...THAT is just amazing!

I HOPE he records your parody! He's great!

19. Hi Amanda. Have you seen the GD thread on depleted uranium?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x2275887

[vetwife]

22. No Bozita..been working on Marie thread but will look at it now !

Thanks to all. I think Jeff and I are really tired ! LOL

[nostamj]

14. Hi everyone

:hi:
Trying to tune in. Having some problems with the feed blipping in and out. :-(

[coreystone]

15. We shall know Christians by their ...

acts.

[Judi Lynn]

16. Off to an outstanding beginning. Just the best!

People should remember another great Republican, Joseph McCarthy. The mold was not broken when he was created. They've got a million of him in the Republican Party. John O'Neill's only the last in a line. Hope he's the last one we'll have to accomodate.

[LWolf]

20. I'm home in time to hear the show live

for the first time in weeks!

Hopefully I didn't miss too much the first 20 minutes. Who is this siting the $$ numbers?

[nostamj]

23. he's.................

Clinton Administration Deputy Treasury Secretary, Roger Altman

[LWolf]

35. Great guest!

Off to a great start today.

[coreystone]

27. Clinton Administration Deputy Treasury Secretary, Roger Altman

:kick: :-)

[coreystone]

21. And, most should be aware of the "uncounted" unemployed...

:-)

[Dudley_DUright]

25. Roger Altman

could not be more on target. I wish we would see him more on the cable news shows (instead of the swiftboat liars). Of course, the so called liberal media would never allow a real debate on economic issues in this election.

[Dudley_DUright]

30. We in FL want a change

I am so sick of Bush (both W and Jeb) mismanagement and lies.

[vetwife]

31. I disagree Dudley..they manage their lies pretty good..LOL !

[Dudley_DUright]

36. Got me there

They certainly are masters of the "Big Lie" technique.

[coreystone]

32. How about the "spin" the Republicans are squeeking in Ohio..

they are knocking Kerry's tax increases for those over $200,000 as being a big negative for small business.

[vetwife]

37. Thye are dizzy from spinning Coreystone !

[vetwife]

38. Ol Lord Guy..thought you were under attack !

[coreystone]

39. Got'cha :-)

:hi:

[Dudley_DUright]

34. Glad Roger brought up

the awful regressive national sales tax that Bush seemed so intrigued with until his handlers reigned him back. Imagine Bush in a second term with no such reelection constraints. :puke:

[vetwife]

40. GREAT LETTER ! ! ! !

[Swamp Rat]

41. Wahoo Walt Starr!!! Kick ass!

:kick:

[Cha]

42. Guy talking about Walt Starr and booosh

ribbons(?). Will talk more about it later.

[nostamj]

43. guy.... it was only ONE ribbon that is in dispute

the 'markmanship' one is legit. the 'unit service' (I think) is the one that Walt Starr exposed.

no need to give the RWs any unnecessary ammo...

[vetwife]

44. Yep that one is legit but I still wish Kerry would duel him.Problem solved

[vetwife]

45. Oh God....Here we go !

[vetwife]

47. Bush I said he was despicable..

[coreystone]

49. McCarthy ruined so many lives. He was a very sick...

puppy.

[Dudley_DUright]

46. Another McCarthy defender

Ann Coulter would be so proud. :eyes:

[obietiger]

51. good grief!

This is hard to believe

[in_cog_ni_to]

48. LIBERAL PRESS??????

Hahahahahahahahahaha! Funny!!!!

If your not repub you're against the constitution??? GEEEEEZ, these people are damn NUTS! Now, let me praise McCarthy???? Is this Ann Coulter??

[Cha]

53. It's a Waste of our precious time.

I know Guy has to let these people speak for listener support but they are All over the air waves and we have Guy and a few others to get our voices out.

[nostamj]

50. the VIDEO of Barnes

Lt. Gov on TX who got smirk into the TANG has surfaced!

http://www.buzzflash.com/alerts/04/08/ale04040.html

(I'm pretty sure that was the tape that Guy tried to play earlier. he went to the Viet Nam Memorial and is now ashamed of what he did to help the children of rich contributors)

[vetwife]

52. What about killing grownups? Death penalty !

[vetwife]

54. Well I guess Hitler is conservative enough !

[Dudley_DUright]

55. This guy is to the right of Genghis Khan

[vetwife]

67. Thanks Jeff, was about to post it.

[rbnyc]

66. Mari is so brave.

Michael had better be allowed to stay home. I just can't stop crying for her situation. There was so much love between them. It's so much more than heartbreaking.

[vetwife]

72. They inmates are in charge of the asylum !

[in_cog_ni_to]

68. The war was RIGHT???

Is this woman out of her FUCKING MIND????? DAMN WENCH!!!!

AFTER hearing Mari's phone call she had the damn NERVE to say this war is RIGHT?? Holy crap.

[Catshrink]

75. what a phoney bitch

She starts out with "Bless her heart" and "I'm a Christian" then starts her dumb ass lies. Tries to springboard off of Marianne's grief to her emptiheaded adolation of a fucking DESERTER.

The nerve.

Good move, GUY!

[Cha]

70. Give her Hell, Guy!

Because you know what? It's her ilk that let booosh and his thugs Bomb Iraq and started this whole tragic Loss.

And for her to on and say she'll pray for Mari..makes me sick. They are Stupid, vacuous, Idiots!

Fuck her and the millions like her.

[Cha]

74. Guy is Fired Up!

:grr: Good!

This is what we need to defeat bush and the fake religious wing.

[nostamj]

71. "christian" MY ASS

I am so glad that Guy didn't suffer that FOOL. the NERVE of that steaming pile of shit!

[Cha]

78. Guy had the proper response with the witch...

the nerve to get on after our Mari and say those stupid things.

I knew we were in trouble when she said she was "conservative and a Christian".

[Bozita]

82. Tried to wrap her war around the grieving shoulders of Mari

fucking pig

[in_cog_ni_to]

73. Now I have a headache.

That woman must have made my blood pressure go sky high! :grr:

[vetwife]

79. I think a woman like that who called (the nut)

is like the rest of them...want to kill us all. If she could hear Marie and then say such stupid crap as that, she is not serving MY GOD. She is wanting a fascist country and rid themselves of anybody hurting. What planet do these people come from because My God its time to beam them up !

[coreystone]

76. George's picture on the box of "plastic Wheaties".....

with all the nutritional deficiencies. I think that lady OD'd.

[Catshrink]

77. Stop saying the jackass was AWOL, he was a DESERTER.

more than 30 days..... call it as it is, DESERTER!!!

[in_cog_ni_to]

80. YES! YES! YES! This man has his finger on the pulse.

Kerry and Mari ARE parallel in their actions and desires. Kerry had the courage to get us out of Vietnam, he'll get us out of Iraq. G-D love this man, John. :hug:

[coreystone]

81. This miscalculation along with Rummy is so pretentious....

It's back to the bully stuff again, teacher says, "now don't do that again"....."No m'am", says George and Donny, "Just give us another 4 years and we'll never do it again"

NOT!!!

[LWolf]

83. NSMA counters with the beatitudes.

Great call.

[soup]

86. Yes. Thank you NSMA!

That was absolutely beatitudifully done!

Connection is really really bad here, but I caught most of your call before it blipped back out again.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

108. Hey you!

:hi:

[Cha]

87. Yeah, it was a very interesting call...I

hope dee, in Sanibel, was listening.

[Dudley_DUright]

84. NSMA

I see the light! We are all blessed thanks to W. Hallelujah.

[in_cog_ni_to]

85. "I" don't PITY Bush.

"I" HATE him. He's the epitome of EVIL. He's doesn't deserve pity.

[Swamp Rat]

88. "I" = millions and millions of people around the world.

Don't vote for Bush! He's an alien lizard!

[jimshoes]

91. I knew it!

Ewww!

[vetwife]

92. Every week I say I am not gonna call and then I get mad !

Well Take care Marie..That woman was nuts !

[in_cog_ni_to]

94. You were GREAT!

:hug:

[LWolf]

89. Good to hear from Vetwife, too.

It looks like that christian lady caller really set off the audience!

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

93. Yeah...that lady was a steaming pile...great call Amanda!

[Cha]

90. The bush pricks have made ..

Extra sure they will have Black faces in the crowd at their circus..that's what I read on du.

They scoured for minority delegates.

Course, there was that one delegate who isn't going because he decided he wouldn't be voting for bush this year.

[vetwife]

95. If that woman is a chrisitan I am the Queen of England and I

haven't knighted anyone lately !

[Swamp Rat]

98. Excellent vetwife!

:thumbsup: from a "Knighted Rodent!"

[Swamp Rat]

97. Yes, like Guy said. There will be more on stage than in the crowd.

They have NO shame - NONE at all. Remember when Shrub went to lay the wreath at MLK's tomb?

[benburch]

96. White Rose Recording!

We've been out and about...

Archive will post at the usual time!

[Cha]

Good! Guy is talking about the Iraqi

Soccer team not wanting bush to use them in his Olympic ads..the Iraqi soccer player said through a translator... "he can find some other way to advertise himself...hope dee and her cronies are listening.

[soup]

103. Thank you so much.

[Desertrose]

113. and you do a great job!

thank you!

My teacher friend says basically the same thing about tests etc in Fl...make that Jebbie's Florida!

Hey...I am with ya if they start drafting grown kids...I'm taking my son & daughter outta this country...we should start a new community somewhere all together :)

:loveya:
DR

[LWolf]

124. I'd support my boys either way.

At 25 and 26, they're old enough to make their own choices, lol. But they are true sons of their mother; they won't be forced to do something that they haven't decided is the right thing for them to do. I heard recently that there was some agreement with Canada not to take conscientious objectors, should the draft be implemented. Just word of mouth; I don't know if that is true, but it would be good to know.

:hi:

[nostamj]

125. it is true...

something bushco did a while back... wonder why..... :shrug: ;-)

[LWolf]

127. Numbers.

How many young people would actually end up in the military under GWB if they could cross the border? It's not whether or not they want to serve their country in in the military; who in their right mind would want * playing with their lives and corrupting their service?

[Desertrose]

126. I heard that too, about Canada

I know neither of my kids would choose to serve...my daughter is 22 & son is 27. But I am putting it out there bigtime that it will not come to that.

Maybe a nice tropical island somewhere :evilgrin:
....or maybe just a nice tropical island somewhere for the hell of it LOL

:)

[soup]

154. You're speaking for the 16 and 17 yr olds

who aren't really old enough to make their own decisions, and don't need a recruiter talking them into something they have no real concept of.

Missed your call, but as the mom of a 17 yr old, I thank you. If you talked about the 'opt out' choice that parents have, and if one parent heard you who didn't know and it saves their impressionable teenager from being bush cannon fodder- what an enormous accomplishment your call made.

There's been too many deaths, too much pain and I sure do not want to lose my 'baby' to this insanity. He has enough friends, and doesn't need a recruiter 'buddy' offering pizza and baloney.

Thanks again for your call. Hope I can listen on the archives.

[LWolf]

159. You're welcome.

There is already too much pressure brought to bear on young people. Those from families whose resources aren't enough to help them through college or trade school are especially vulnerable.

[vetwife]

117. Oh goodness .. L Wolf I missed your call..will catch it on archives,,

Man..the phone rings at the most inappropriate times. Fill us in.
What did L Wolf say ?

107. THis man is right...bush doesn't understand

human life..sociopaths don't.

[Swamp Rat]

114. ANOTHER excellent call!

The previous caller is right too: Bush&Co are flippant about sending Americans and others to their deaths.

And talk about military cuts!

[coreystone]

115. Bush utilizes the "fear factor" after 9/11 to promote and justify ....

everything he does. I just don't understand why so many of the American people are so much "in denial" of the misinformation that they sponge up in allowing themselves to be so "programmed"

[LWolf]

118. Interesting idea, Guy.

Of course some soldier over in Iraq is collecting medals so that he can run for president 3 or 4 decades from now! ;-)

Here's another...how many of those soldiers who come home from Iraq, with or without medals, will be here in 3 or 4 decades? Considering the effects of exposure to DU/dirty bombs.

132. Guy, straighten this wingnut out!! HERE

Kerry DOES follow the teachings of his church, he just doesn't happen to believe that the Gov't. should impose his religious beliefs on others!

Also, Didn't bushie refuse to meet with the head of his own church before the war because his church was against the war??

149. Great show today.

I'm glad I was home for it!

[Wind Dancer]

151. Powerful show!

Marianne's call was heartbreaking, the next caller left me sick and angry - best not write how I feel about her.

Vetwife, you were great, glad you set the record straight. These so called "Christians" make my blood boil.

LWolf, thanks for speaking out for all the teachers and kids, well done.

Guy, thanks, so happy to have found your station through DU. You handled certain callers far better than I could have. I can't believe how selfish and stupid people are.

153. Go North Carolina!...for

155. Great Show but I swear this Repug love has got to be getting to Guy !

It is getting to me !

[Cha]

156. Getting to me, too, Amanda...but I love the way

Guy's voice and thoughts boom out across the airwaves.

If only some rational repubs would call instead of these one who are "Blinded by the right".

[Wind Dancer]

158. It is taking its toll on everybody!

The people have been spoon-fed such BS from mainstream media, we're dealing with a nation that is brainwashed. Rush and his ilk have caused serious damage - it just makes me sick.

Guy does an amazing job, so glad I found him through DU.

[vetwife]

160. These people remind me of Jim Jones and the Cult

We need deprogrammers. I love how Guy hits their buttons and that is why the extremes call him. That is why I get hate mail. We hit their button and they whine.Not to compare myself to Guy, he is awesome and really really good ! I feel people like Rush and Hannity should be up on charges for insigiting riots and under the hate bill in some states, stop the pitting people against people. IT is their venum that is causing all of this based on lies.
