6. Bush sent a footman to deal with a peasant
That's the whole idea, anyway. I sincerely hope this gets the maximum amount of play on mainstream news tonight.

This is disgraceful.

10. But LAND COMMISSIONER?
Is telling a former US Senator to go away? I was so sure Smirky was going to come out with a glass of fakey southern hospitality to spin this story....

Unbelievable he blew it! He must be hungover.

35. I thought he'd come out too
Same as what you said, and slap Max on the back and thank him for his valuable input, and blather on about stopping all the 527 entities. He really DID blow this one. He just looks like the imperial imposter that he is.

9. M<ax Cleelund (spelling) and one of the Swift Boat vets
went to Crawford to deliver a letter to Bush asking him to denounce the lying ads.

Love how the corporate media likes to make Dems sound sinister.

27. Oops! CNN must be getting phone calls from the WH- now they are showing
Dufus Patterson (aka Land Commissioner) telling his pathetic story...

He's talking about how he was driving down the road and "got the call" and then he was asked who wrote the letter and he admits that the Bush/Cheney 04 campaign wrote it for him! Hahahahahahaha

32. Land Commissioner Patterson (aka lapdog for Bush/Cheney 04) was
asked (I mean he volunteered) to bring a letter signed by 8 other Vets (all Texas Repukes) to Max Cleland from Bush.....

So, not only did Bush snub Max Cleland and send this dork out to meet Max, but also to "deliver" a letter to Max....

Max left him standing in the dust from his wheelchair....pretty funny....

34. Thanks...
Unbelievable. Bubble Boy King thinks this will make him look GOOD?

Of course the media will prop him up once again, but he really did cast a low blow on this one. And who cares what 8 puke texan vets say? The signators on Max's letter were all Congressmen weren't they?

36. The rethug land commissioner pushed for "Guns in church" legislation when
he was in the texas legislature.

CNN's Paul Begala, a Texan, called this guy a right wing whacko.

30. Mad Max at the PigfarmDome
Really tore Dumbya a new one. I especially liked the part where he itemized how W went after THREE decorated vets during political campaigns. Then said how America does not deserve this and deserves much better.

38. CNN censoring itself? Anybody notice this?

When I first clicked on the headline story on CNN.com today (from the "Vets deliver letter for Kerry campaign to Bush ranch" link on their main page) they had a pic of Max Cleland in his wheelchair, in front of a some Kerry supporters. Clicking on the same story, the pic has been changed (the text appears to be the same to me) to a close-up of Max sort of sinisterly backlit in bright sunlight.
