Did Tweety properly hold BUSH accountable for the Swift Boats?
if he trashed O'Neill, but then failed to examine Bush's record of attacking his opponents this way, and discuss Bush's failure to denounce these ads, then fuck him.

But I didn't see the program, so did or didn't he?

2. He gave O'Neill a grade A fit.

Called him on everything O'Neill tried to bring up. Had a look on his face of disgust while he was doing it.
O'Neill started to say he wasn't getting time to speak his piece and Tweety shut him up on that one by saying "You've had X amount of minutes, we've been keeping track of it. You Republicans talk the most and always complain you didn't get enough time.

When O'Neill tried to say that Kerry didn't deserve his medals and the reports were wrong, Tweety told him that the reports were made by the U.S. Navy and they were lying? These are official reports and I've seen them and there are rules and regulations to follow in making the reports. If they say Kerry deserved the medals, he did.

Tweety did us proud against O'Neill.

He also reminded O'Neill of Bush's record. :bounce:
Almost forgot..He told O'Neill "You're a Republican aren't you? (a couple of times in rapid fire)
O'Neill said he hadn't voted Republican since Reagan.
Tweety said "You vote for Clinton"?
O'Neill said no, but he voted for Gore and also had voted I think for Nader (or an off candidate)

edited to add.

11. I've always thought
it applied to the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde episode (middle frame) -- with no offense to Chris.

12. O'Neill gave money to Republicans
Un-political O'Neill has made nearly $15,000 in contributions to federal races -- all Republican



Appearing on CNN's Crossfire on August 12, John O'Neill, co-founder of the anti-Kerry group Swift Boat Veterans for Truth and co-author of the Regnery book Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry, denied he had links to the Republican Party: "I've had no serious involvement in politics of any kind in over 32 years."

But, as Media Matters for America noted on May 4, O'Neill has long-standing ties to the Republicans, having worked under the direction of the Nixon White House and clerked for Chief Justice of the United States William Rehnquist in 1990.

Moreover, since 1990, according to the Center for Responsive Politics, O'Neill has contributed $14,650 to federal candidates or national political organizations -- all Republicans:

2004: $2,000 to Duane Sand (ND)

1999: $1,000 to Peter Staub Wareing (TX)

1998: $250 to Rudy Izzard (TX)

1996: $1,000 to Brent Perry (TX)

1994: $2,500 to Texas Republican Congressional Committee

1993: $2,500 to Texas Republican Congressional Committee

1992: $1,000 to Texas Republican Congressional Committee

1992: $1,000 George H.W. Bush

1992: $1,000 to Clark Kent Ervin (TX)

1991: $1,000 to Clark Kent Ervin (TX)

1990: $400 to Hugh Dunham Shine (TX)

1990: $1,000 to A Tribute To Ronald Reagan

He said on Tweety last night he was independant HA He also said he voted for Gore HAHA He's a LIAR......
