The fat has hit the fire
Press". He was unbelievably negative about the current Democratic candidates for President. He was most critical of Wesley Clark. He said the Democratic party is being pulled apart by the current party leadership's constant tilt to the left. He indicated that the Bush tax cut has lead to the improvement in the economy by pulling a torn out news article from his inside pocket and pointing to it. Rarely have I ever seen a politician be this blunt and to the point. I suppose it helps him be more forthright since he is retiring but... Whoa man, this is going to cause quite a stink. The truth often times does hurt. -- cg |

I've never heard the man speak before and I only caught part of this morning's broadcast. But I might. What do you perceive are his major criticisms of the Republicans? -- cg |

He called them outright lies. Based on my recollections, I would agree with him. While I don't remember the details I do remember thinking at the time that Senator Cleland lost office via lies. I will also be the first to admit it didn't make me sad but it did seem wrong. > >Like Allan, I don't always agree with Zell but at least he is honest. >He is also responsiblie for starting the Georgia lottery that paid for >my education. Yup, educated on the backs of the addicted. Where are your liberal values on this one? -- cg |
