Tweety on the Taset gun and the student: Shuster reports

He asks Is this the democracy we're teaching the Sunni's and Shia's about.
Tweety is pissed.

1. On Hardball?

Tweety is Chris Mathews, right? (how did he get that nickname? I've always wondered)

Doesn't he remind you of Tweety? (Yes, Chris Matthews.)

5. Another tidbit: When Tweety goes to Vegas to report and goes ga ga over a pretty guest

or woman at da place, we call him "Tweezer" = "Tweety" + "Old Geezer"

Oh, please do try to keep up? <friendly tweak/tease> :hi:

9. Tweety just used the fascist word

wonders if the democracy under the gun in Iraq is coming home. He and the Code Pink lady nailed both Rethugs and Dems.

3. Yes

Shuster calls it an assault on Free of speech. I agree 100%
This must be condemned.

11. JK agreed to take both questions

I know more than a few obnoxious students who do these stupid things, but there is no way they should be tasered for this. Sorry.

7. The points I want to say are he jumped in front of every one else.

Didn't they have a right to free speech. And then they let him go ahead and speak for the alloted minutes and he wouldn't shut up when his time was up. Wasn't he again taking minutes away from other people, what about their free speech. This is what I find him wrong about. He did not deserve to be tassered, but, I don't know how they would have gotten him out of there the way he was carrying on. He acted like no one else mattered by him.

12. I heard it otherwise

... on the radio, that he waited in line, and was given the mike. I saw a video of the beginning. I can't tell if a lot is edited out or not, but it was interesting. It doesn't support the 'he grabbed the mike and cut in front of others' argument.

10. Medea: "Hillary has goons."

She was pulled out of a rally for wearing a t-shirt, "Troops Out Now".
