Did anyone see Don King last night?

    Don King was on one of these liberal talk shows on MSNBC or CNN, one of those liberal stations..

    He kept touting love America, be proud of America, had his usual American Flag and patriotic garb on.. He kept telling the reporter how luck the US was to have GWB, how great Bush was, and that Bush is the reason we have not seen any terrorist attacks on US soil since 9/11... This of course is all true..

    But I found it interesting how the reporter kept trying to change the subject back to Boxing everytime King rammed the truth down his throat...

    Don King, probably one of the greatest Americans of all time.. What a character...

    Does anyone remember what show or station that was on? I was channel surfing last night and just happened to see it.

    Not exactly sure what that means.. Are you sure you would not be more comfortable on a pizza related forum?

    Savvy when it comes to boxing promtion, not so much when it comes to politics as you can see.

    Seems to excel at both... I would not be surprised if he becomes a campaign manager some day.

    Would you really want a convicted murderer as your campaign manager?

    Source please? King was convicted of manslaughter, not murder, and was later pardoned.


    Considering the thread starter is banned, I would say the poll is a bit flawed... :D

    Whether the OP of that thread is banned or not is irrelevant, look at the poll results. :D

    Just because the OP is banned doesn't make the poll flawed Mia and you know that. The only reason you said that was because Bush is getting a tanking lol!!

    The majority of the people involved in that thread are banned.. I think it is completely relevant...

    Anyway, you might want to take a look at the election results in the US for the last two presidential elections.. The results are much different...

    But hey, and internet poll at DP carries so much more weight... :rolleyes:

    With all the duplicate accounts that were banned in that thread? One has to be a bit suspect.

    On the other hand, US elections are not rigged..

    Only 3 people were banned Mia, it still makes for unpleasant reading for Bush lovers whichever way you care to spin it. ;)

    Duplicate accounts 3... Existing accounts 3... 3 + 3 = 6. Looks like the number is getting higher..

    You're digging yourself into a bottomless pit AGS...

    And those "people" are you... Actually the majority of the people that do not like Bush either do not live in the US, are terrorists, support terrorists, or just like to hate.

    You seem to fall into every one of these categories...

    I would say so too. I saw him on TV a few years back talking about UK politics & he was pleased the UK were cooperating with America in regard to the war on terror. Don King was waving his USA flag whilst speaking lol

    I guess the thing I have to respect about him is the fact that he is actually very positive... I never hear a negative word come out of his mouth.. To me that is more than patriotic, that is down right intelligent... That is why the man succeeds...

    Bush's approval rating is consistently in the low 30s - his own people hate him as much as the rest of us.

    Before a big-mouth and a flag-waver doesn't make you a politician, it makes you zealot. I'm sure we could take a ride through any town in the United States and pick up hundreds of blindly-patriotic Americans - that doesn't make them smart or politically savvy, it makes them idiots for loving their country more then the general well-being of the world's people.

    The only reason I hate Bush is because he has been the biggest disaster to come out of America in years. Your puppet lover has pretty much ruined the Middle East Mia, just because you worship the fool does not make what he has done right.
