Welcome to DU!! :toast:

5. Keep us posted.

I missed the first part because I was a first time subscriber.

[Bozita]

7. Huh?

what's a first time subscriber?

[Rocinante]

9. First time listener

or because not signed up for listeners club or something. I have to enter my e-mail and year of birth every night cause I run window washer often.

[Bozita]

10. Huh? There is still no "first time subscribers" or any other "something."

Huh?

[Catherine Vincent]

12. Let me explain.

The website has it where you can click and listen. But before you can listen, it asks you to sign up with your email address, gender and zip code. And you also have to download something. It takes a few minutes before you can listen.

I'm glad I did. This guy is great. Of course, I say that because he's on my side.

[Rocinante]

13. Sorry just telling you

what I do to get Bernie Ward to load up every night. Maybe it's a Windows thing or something, but I ain't lyin'.

8. US Newswire has picked up the Enron email story, and not from Palast.

This is coming from the Foundation for Taxpayer and Consumer Rights:

11. Haha! This Bernie Ward guy is hilarious!

He shouts at all of his callers, well at least the right wingy ones. I loved his response to the idiot that called and was whining about the timing of the women accusing Arnold. He had the nerve to bring up Juanita Broderick. Yeesh!

[Rocinante]

14. Yeah Bernie is great

and sometimes you can catch him on the TV news talk shows.

[eleny]

15. I liked the convo with the guy who voted for Arnie

he said both parties were awful and Bernie ran down all the great things the Dems have done in history. Sharp!

[AP]

17. Ward made a good point which I wish would sink in to more people's heads

generally. He said that Enron and a few other corporations stood to lose 9 Billion of Bustamante's suits proceeded without the Governor settling for pennies on the dollar. He asked his audience, 'what do you think a corporation would do to save 9 Billion dollars?" Just about anything, right? You think they wouldn't run a recall fraud? Think again.
