Richard Holbrooke is kicking Tweety & Buchanan ass on Hardball
He just asserted that they ask him a question and answer it themselves. So why have him on the show when they can interview themselves. He's challeneged all their questions and said that he was there to discuss the issues and not their twisted logic about Kerry's campaign.

4. I'm off Tweety, too
But I had to take a quick peek today. Glad I did. This segment is over. Nora O'D was trying to ask Holbrooke a question but something was up with her connection. He couldn't hear her. She sounded like she was far away in a tunnel. They ended it there for a commercial.

5. Audience is mixed
I heard someone yell "4 more years". But as I was typing my post, there was some cheering and I think Tweety said to Holbrooke "That's for you, I guess".

7. Tweety is incapable of asking a question
that makes any sense. He's terrible as an interviewer. I can't believe that I used to enjoy reading and watching this creep years ago.

9. I am so sick of cable t.v. spin
about Kerry's campaign. They are nearly always wrong so I wish they'd shut their faces. They know nothing!

Richard Holbrooke is remarkable. He made them all look like asses. He has always impressed me as a spokesman and as a person.

10. Holbrooke acts like a Secretary of State.

How can these talking heads, lead by the clueless Tweety Bird think that the cheerleaders in the background and the "horse race" allusions are appropriate for a Presidential debate discussion during a war in which soldiers are being killed and maimed on a daily bases? There's such a disconnect in the media these days, the mind boggles.

I loathe these people.

12. Holbrooke has had his back up lately
He was on Tweety last week and was asked some inane question and he refused to give an answer, saying he was invited on the program to discuss foreign policy, not campaign trivia.

13. I was making dinner and half listening
I'm certain I heard him say something like " you invited me on the show. If you want to interview yourself, please do it when you have some other guest here."

14. he embarrassed Carlson last week and humiliated bow-tie boy
told Carlson to stuff the false syllogisms and talk intelligently. Carlson knew he had been made to look like a dirty little wanker by a guy who shits bigger chunks than carlson's whole body and he slunked off the topic.

thought bowtie was going to cry holbrooke made him look so bad.

holbrooke is expected to be kerry's sect of state.

15. The problem is that Holbrooke like every other Democrat....
CANNOT do this everytime. If we all did, then we could "KICK ASS" 100% of the time.

Holbrooke was right on the money and Tweety looked like he just "got it up the back end"!
