Carol Lin: Has Kerry "blown his wad"?

[Bluebear]

I kid you not. Schneider: Democrats made a mistake not attacking Bush at their convention and they are paying for it now with no poll bounce. Carol Lin: "So has Kerry already blown his wad"? How dainty!

[DenverDem]

1. Like the wrong wing propaganda wad on her face?

Complete whore.

[Bluebear]

2. Completely.

First fucking balloons and now blowing your wad on CNN.

[psychopomp]

48. In all fairness

a "wad" can mean a large amount of money and "to blow" can mean to spend. The inference is, "has Kerry already gone through his windfall?"

For all we know, Ms. Lin might be surprised to learn the salacious meaning.

[DenverDem]

49. Right, and monica was an innocent intern.

Please, let's not be naive.

[Sabriel]

58. Does that make him "Johnny Wad"?

If so, then I'm FOR SURE voting for him!

[TWiley]

47. Apparently, she does not have

Sponge Bob Square Pants playing on the TV set at home. I can only imagine which movie she picked that up from.

[Sugarbleus]

3. Who is Carol Lin? CNN? (??)

'How dainty'<-----lol

Tell me more. Thanx

[Bluebear]

5. Yeah anchor on 10pm news on CNN

[OKNancy]

21. Here

[Cha]

27. She needs some more makeup..serious.

[Sugarbleus]

37. Good Heavens...SHE said that? Yowzers! thanx...n/t

[Syrinx]

4. did Schneider comment on her, um, colorful comment?

[Bluebear]

8. I don't recall, my jaw was hitting the floor lol

[ncrainbowgrrl]

51. mine too... at that point, I wished that I had TiVo-

I wasn't sure that I had heard that line correctly... Now I'm sure that I heard correctly. Um... Yeah. Really professional. *sigh*

[arcos]

44. yes...

surprisingly enough, Schneider was considerably more unbiased than her.

Actually it is not that surprising... I think Carol Lin is the most biased CNN anchor, second only to Paula Zahn.

[Dees]

50. Agree. Lin is by far the most biased on CNN.

She's on the Rove payroll. Two weeks ago she was interviewing a Bu$h propagandist regarding all of the strengths of MonkeyNuts. At the conclusion she simply said, "well there you have it". She's Faux material.

[jdj]

6. This deserves an FCC complaint too.

If I were Howard Stern I would be pissed right about now. I'm sure she didn't know what it really means, now she'll have to live it down.

[wndycty]

11. Its cable they can say whatever they want. . .

. . .seriously.

[WindRavenX]

7. did she REALLY say that?

Holy crap, that's nasty...:puke:
CNN is really sinking.

[Bluebear]

35. She did, she did.

[Dookus]

9. lol

and some republicans were calling Edwards "sloppy seconds". These folk get all their talking points from porn.

[rucky]

10. "Mommy, what does it mean to 'blow your wad'?

[AspenRose]

12. Ewww - now there's a mental image I didn't need

Quick! Someone call Michael Powell, STAT!

If I were Howard Stern I'd be all over this.

[Bluebear]

13. Call CNN (404) 827 – 1500

[AbbeyRoad]

14. That's disgusting.

Doesn't that violate some FCC rule? Ick.

[osaMABUSh]

15. "blowing your wad" Wow, she doesn't know what it means?

She is ignorant and disgusting at the same time.

[markses]

29. Clinton reference: She knows damn well what it means

n/t

[Neshanic]

16. Was reading the paper, and heard that in the background. Whaa?

[Lefta Dissenter]

17. I'm not sure, but

is 'blowing his wad' somehow related to 'choking on the donkey or swallowing the elephant'... or whatever it was that bush said last week? That flew completely under the radar, except for here at DU. Isn't this the same party that had to cover up the breasts of a marble statue? :shrug:

[tcfrogs]

18. QUESTION!

Doesn't "blowing your wad" refer to a phrase dating back to the olden days - shooting your musket too soon? (I'm not making a joke, I think that's really true) Please correct if I'm mistaken.

[Lefta Dissenter]

20. I think that is the origin of the phrase,

however it has taken on a different meaning in more recent years. :evilgrin:

[tcfrogs]

24. I know, I know

Can't (well, yes I can) believe that everyone is in a tizzy about this.

[robcon]

41. I think 'blowing your wad' meant running through all your money

The "wad" is a pile of cash you have on hand.

[Old and In the Way]

32. Think it meant (back in the old days) to spend all your money, as in-

"Joe blew his wad on that nag to win the race". The phrase still means pretty much the same thing, but with a slightly different twist.

Pretty funny.

[jayctravis]

42. "Mommy, what does blowing your wad mean?"

Easily explained away, a vernacular metaphor for spending all the cash you have. It's a wad of cash. Seriously.

Kerry will likely prove her wrong.

[skygazer]

59. Yes, that's the correct origin

Premature ignition, shall we say?

[salinen]

19. Stern lost his job

for the same phraseology.

[Cha]

25. But Stern has another job now even better and it wasn't even

for that but because he was bushbashing.

[IronLionZion]

26. no, a caller dropped the n-bomb

it wasn't stern

[Cha]

22. That's fulla Shyte...kinda like when all the networks were

announcing in 2000 that the wrong person won.

And they had egg all over their face and brokaw said it would never happen again.

What Planet are they on that they can't read the other polls coming out that give Kerry/Edwards a 12 point lead?

[DeepModem Mom]

23. I was more offended by the clip of W in those skimpy, nylon-y shorts...

They left little of what was underneath to the imagination. My daughter and I expressed a loud, collective EWWWWWWW!

[AspenRose]

28. *cue cheesy 70's porn music* a la "Boogie Nights"

*wocka* *wocka* *wocka* }(

[Bluebear]

30. LOL that paints a picture

[belle]

31. ooh, potty mouth! FINE HER!

jeezus, what a bunch of maroons.

[graywarrior]

33. Bush is still blowing his wad

all over Iraq.

[BlueStateGirl]

34. I just tried to call and complain. The mailbox is full. Guess I'll fire

off an email.

[Bluebear]

36. I got a real person & he cut me off

Sent me to the same full mailbox. Guess they could give a wad what we think.

[VolcanoJen]

38. I saw her earlier today, and I'm telling you, I thought she was drunk.

She was interviewing some poor, tired reporter covering the Salt Lake City missing woman case, and Carol Lin was just barking these ridiculous questions at him. "Well, WHY haven't the police arrested him yet? Because he's in a mental ward?"

She was so shrill, and ridiculous, it made look up from my cooking and at the TV. "She seems half-crocked," I thought to myself at the time.

Hmmm...

[Bluebear]

39. Hmm indeed! Hitting the sauce are we?

[Endangered Specie]

40. Wonder how many wads she blew to get where she is?

[VOX]

43. There you go. Hers is the voice of experience.

:evilgrin:

[Endangered Specie]

54. Are you implying that I have an expertise in that field too?

;) :evilgrin:

[bacchant]

45. No, he's saving it for Bush's face n/t

[guitar man]

46. Ummm

If she's referring to blowing a wad of cash, I think it's the Boosh camp that's done more of that with little effect. If she's referring to the other, I think he's saving that for election night, where it will wind up all over the RW machine.:evilgrin:

[Tracer]

52. Carol Lin is disturbing.

I immediately change the channel if I so much as glimpse her face.

The woman smiles all the time Ñ and smiles inappropriately:

BIG GRIN Ñ "And today in Iraq, 110 people killed in a bomb blast" Ñ BIG GRIN.

It's so unpleasant to watch.

[LittleApple81]

53. She was the one on Saturday comparing pictures of Jacqueline Kennedy

to Teresa, rolling her eyes and asking if she was "lady like" or somesuch stupidity.

[Bluebear]

61. I saw that too, disgraceful.

[Clinton Crusader]

55. I thought I heard that and.

Schneider's face DID change a bit after she said that...but she didnt miss a beat. Im really not sure if she realized what she said or in her head she was thinking, "holy shit, did I say that ON AIR?"

CNN is praying everyone was watching MSNBC last night....
:kick:

[Must_B_Free]

56. "made a mistake not attacking Bush"?

I thought they were touting that they WERE attacking Bush at the convention. I recall several talking heads criticising Dems for this.

Make up your minds on what lies to sell!

[enki23]

57. now that is actually really fucking offensive

the day i hear about bush needing to "shit, or get off the pot" i'll accept that there is no bias here.

[Bluebear]

60. Exactly. Call CNN (404) 827 – 1500

Complain about the disrespectful & inappropriate language. John Kerry, after all, is a candidate for President of the United States, not a contestant on "Big Brother".
