Joy Behar: ‘I’m still ticked off about the 2000 election’---ME TOO!!!

Spitzer asked Behar if she was registered as a Democrat or a Republican, to which she replied, “Oh, Democrat. One of the reasons I wanted to be on Current TV is because Al Gore owns the station,” she said.

Behar explained that she’s “still ticked off about the 2000 election. I’m still ticked off at the Supreme Court because that was not an election, it was a decision.”


Spitzer jokingly suggested “anger management.”

“It’s been eleven years,” he said, before conceding that he, too, is still a little hacked off about it, “It was a tipping point for our country. It was a tipping point for our respect for the Supreme Court. It could be the single worst modern Supreme Court decision. It was partisan, it was wrong.”

I feel somehow responsible for not knowing how to fix the purge in time. And not any earned purge.

Because I think they have a grand vision of a repeat performance.

All the pieces are in place Florida, Ohio and Wisconsin. Through a couple others in there and it smells like 2000 all over again.

More like so pissed off, if I ever personally met anyone of the bass turds who was responsible for that, the biggest travesty of justice in our country's history, I would personally tar and feather him or her!

I am just as mad, if not madder than I was in 2000.

Things usually get better after such an injustice. It's been 11 years, and things have gotten so much worse, I see our country circling the drain, becoming more a fascist police state each and every day!

From the Bush coup came the planned response to 9/11.

From that came all of the anti-terrorism agenda that has resulted in the weakening of our constitutional protections.

What's next? Tyranny.

I remember hearing the word and thinking "bass turd"? What does a bass poop have to do with a bad person??

A bastard is a child of unwed parents, a bass turd fish shit. Now you figure out which you would less want to be associated with. Would you want to be a bastard, or a bass turd?
