1. Edwards' response was PERFECT!
Says Cheney is telling the American people that if they elect anyone other than Bush and we get attacked, it's the American people's fault.

Brilliant!

3. His words were good...
Where was his anger?

Where was his indignation?

There is more outrage on this board over the Cheney comment, than I hear from the campaign.

12. Oh, please. Edwards doesn't need to behave like a frothing dog
his words are scathing enough.

Jeez.

28. Better to NOT show anger
Edited on Tue Sep-07-04 07:36 PM by LynnTheDem
A slight smile, a shake of the head (oh that silly Cheney!) and a light toss of the wordgrenade does much better at getting thru to the public at how silly Cheney is (and thus how silly they'd be to vote for a silly like Cheney).

Soft mocking destroys rightwingnuts.

38. Edwards was extremely angry.
His eyes are very expressive. His disgust with Cheney came through loud and clear.

4. Olbermann basically called Cheney a terrorist!
He said, isn't what Cheney is doing by saying this terrorizing people himself?

14. Olbermann's kicking ass -
Lead with Cheney's comments, then talked about Texans for Truth, and now teasing Bush's stupid OB-GYN comment.

Nice job.

Anyone have his email address?

6. Olberman is now my #1 news show to watch.
He's really good.

The whole show has been good--Olberman's pointing the BS out, and so is Bill Press.

Cool.

13. "The vice-president stands by my explanation of his statement" -
cheney spokesperson womack (sp?), when asked if cheney stands by his statement, as reported on Countdown w/ Olberman.

This isn't a flip-flop, its a somersault.

24. I can't believe OR has such a big head
that he thinks people will vote him into the Senate.

I mean, I knew he had a huge ego, but this is ridiculous.
