Peroutka bombed on Medved

I find it hard to believe we cant find streaming audio of Medved somewhere. If this went well for Peroutka, we'd find it all over the place on the CP site or one of the CP folks on here would have a link up in seconds

 

On the other hand Tom, if it went so poorly why aren't the Bush and/or Kerry supporters rushing to find streaming audio or type to show how horrible Peroutka did?
I'm really quite ready to simply write myself in come voting time.

Actually the other 16 interviews that Peroutka has done this month went GREAT and I havent seen any links to any audio clips "all over the place on the CP site". His interview with Joseph Farah went so well that Farah said he would be having him back again next month, and again in September.

After his interview on C-SPAN I got quite a few emails from people that saw him, and wanted to join the party here in Florida.

 

$ 15 for one interview? You gotta be kidding me.

NetPub, you're making my point. These so-called 16 great interviews this month, and the links to articles by anyone who says anything positive about the CP or Peroutka are legion. Besides, don't Kerry and Bush do about 16 interviews a day

 

If there were audio archives I would give you links, but their aren't, not even for the "big time shows" like Medved apparently.

Bush and Kerry do alot of stuff on their campaigns with the $75 million in taxypayers money, that Peroutka can't afford to do.

 

I suprise you for thinking that's a bit pricey for one interview? That makes me a liberal? That means I have to stop being a conservative? Are you kidding me Stop shooting someone on your side in this.

 

Sure. Medved is on the money train just like Limbaugh and Hannity. There is BIG money in GOP politics.

 

CMG seems to be the only one here who heard this interview, I don't even think Medved is on the radio here in the Orlando, FL area. I found a commentary from Betty Freauf, who also heard the interview, here is what she had to say about it:

On 8/27/2004 on my local radio station, Michael opened up his program, an encore, with the usual, "Another great day in this greatest nation on God's green earth. This is such a great nation that there are many great people who want to run for President of the United States. You all know about the current President whose name is George Walker Bush. You all know about his challenger, John Forbes Kerry, and if you listen to this show regularly, you also heard one of the fringe candidates from the "loser"tarian party (Libertarian Party)" and then he introduced Michael Anthony Peroutka from the Constitution Party - an attorney in Maryland and a family man.

From his opening salvo about the "loser" tarian party, I knew that Peroutka was in for one tough interview. The first question by Medved was about how many states would have the Constitution Party on the their ballots? Peroutka said they expected 41 and explained that with the two-party system in control of rules governing third parties, third parties were at a great disadvantage so 41 states and a number of candidates running for public office was impressive under the circumstances. He mentioned Utah and Oregon with a fairly large showing.

But that didn't satisfy pompous twit Medved who went on to make fun of Peroutka's predecessor, the founder of the Constitution Party, Howard Phillips, who Medved said only got 1/2 of 1% on the national vote in 1992, 1996 and 2000 when he ran and on at least two other occasions referred to it over and over again as a PATHETIC showing.

Medved seemed perplexed. He simply could not understand why the Constitution Party would keep running, running and running and not be able to accomplish more than 98,000 votes.

Medved forgets that it's taken more than 200 years for our great Republic that our Founders gave us to deteriorate to the extent it has especially since the turn of the 20th century and like a big ship with a tiny rudder unable to turn around on a dime, neither will third parties turn America around in one or two elections but does that mean they shouldn't keep on trying? If not third party candidates, then who? If not now, when? After all, Rome wasn't built in a day. Although abortion has not been stopped since the 1973 Roe -vs- Wade Supreme Court decision making it legal, the pro-life movement continues to make steady gains.

Peroutka told Medved his line of thinking is what they call "Preemptive Concession" meaning Medved is agreeing before the game starts that the other team is going to have more points at the end of the game so why play? He quoted John Quincy Adams who once said, "Duty is ours, and results are Gods."

SOURCE

 

This is a dubious source, who also claims that Chambers of Commerce are fronts for the United Nations.

Besides, if Peroutka can't handle Medved, how do you think he'll handle the likes of Helen Thomas, CNN, and Katie Couric?

 

Conservatives and liberals will buy anything that tickles their ears. That's why Al Franken and Ann Coulter are best sellers. I'm sure you CPers haven't bought anything relative to Peroutka

 

Too bad a self-proclaimed "conservative" felt that he needed to trash the only candidate who promotes what he claims to believe. I said "claims".

 

Christianity certainly does not seem to impress you.

 

Get a grip, cmg. You are making outrageous statements toward your brothers in Christ by slandering their character with absolutely no basis in fact.

 

Okay....Jim, you went over the line in attacking CMG. CMG, you have went over the line by being a little less than mature. Will a moderator who has the ability close this puppy down? We've been going in circles for days now.
