Webb Defends Novels Against Attacks (cleaning off the fan in Virginia)

I have no idea why no one has made it into an issue...I am not webb or Allen, I don't work for either of them, nor am I a Virginia voter, nor am I the press

I am not defending Webb. bringing Allen's divorce into it is pretty damn foul if you ask me

I am quite unhappy with the Allen campaign using books to attack Webb.

And by gosh, by golly by gee, you signed up TODAY to tell us all about it????

And reading from the Raising Kaine press releases no doubt.

Sorry. I just don't believe you.

[ChurtleDawg]

everyone has to register some time. you were new once too

If you are not a Bush bot, you will not be welcomed by most at FR. Some pulled this same crap with me when I signed up. You would think that they would understand that some people surf FR for a long time before they join. I am a former Marine and have read some of Webb's books and I throughly enjoyed them. On a personal note, I think that Webb is an ass and would not vote for him. That does not mean that I can't read his books however. The reason that this is not getting very much media coverage is that 90% of the US population does not give a crap about what is written in a fiction book. This includes the works of Lynne Cheney, Scooter Libby, and Webb. Hell, I don't think that the voters in Tennessee even care about THE PICTURES ON THE WEB OF CORKER'S DAUGHTER MAKING OUT WITH ANOTHER GIRL! Most people will not make their voting decisions on this kind of stuff. BTW, I do hope Allen and Corker win their Sen. races.

"Webb (D) said... "Our government should no longer be in the hands of a group of unprincipled, small-minded, power-hungry character assassins."

Now why would he attack Nancy Pelosi like that? :)

[Corin Stormhands]

Sure I was new once.

But I didn't read from the DUmmy script for my FReeper audition.

****Lynne Cheney [have all] put rather bizarre sex scenes in their books****

Do you have any examples of this charge? She said on CNN with Wolf Blitzer that she never wrote anything sexually explicit.

If Mark Foley is responsible for his writings then so is James Webb.

Allen's campaign would never have gone down this trail if Webb had campaigned on the issues. Webb's only strategy has been to smear and demean Allen. Webb should have considered his own history when he attacked Allen.

I do know Jim Webb is a perverted mind and should never be let loose on the American people

Ditto! And you know how to use "loose" correctly! Bonus points. LOL!

"I don't think that the voters in Tennessee even care about THE PICTURES ON THE WEB OF CORKER'S DAUGHTER MAKING OUT WITH ANOTHER GIRL!"

Maybe not, but you'll be deluged with male FReepers asking you for the URL. ;-D

[Timbo64]

Just Google it. It's all over the net.
