Monday, August 2, 2004 at 8:52 PM When Kerry takes office, we need to have infastructure in place to begin a swift and strong grassroots movement to push Kerry to appoint Dr. Drew for Suregon General. what do you think? drdrew4suregongeneral.com? maybe pickdrdrew.com? I don't know.

Edited Tuesday, August 3, 2004 at 7:45 AM You really think the black man will get to vote this year? "What we have to do is wake that sleeping giant, that 10%, get our young black men and women to the poles. That's what's gonna bring change..."

Wednesday, August 4, 2004 at 5:38 PM And I'm still wondering why. When I hear the opinions he presents, he seems rather liberal to me overall. What compells him to label himself as Republican? —Dark Laith |

Wednesday, August 4, 2004 at 5:50 PM Yes, at least twice Drew mentioned in an offhand way that he is a registered Republican. He said it was because he detested the relativistic, do-your-own thing ethos of modern American liberalism. I can't give you the dates, but it was about two years ago. He didn't really make a big deal out of it or go on an Adam-style rant. He just mentioned it in passing. Has Drew ever mentioned who he's going to vote for this year? —Coleman |

Wednesday, August 4, 2004 at 6:40 PM Drew must be so conflicted. On the one hand, he supports widespread access to birth control, favors legalized abortion (although he doesn't perosnally approve of it), and subscribes to therapeutic theories most conservatives abhore. On the other hand, he HATES our permissive popular culture (even as he earns a handsome living from it) and supports the war. His head must be spinning at this election. —snuffy |

Sunday, August 8, 2004 at 7:52 PM IIRC Drew and Adam are both Independents, and have said so many times on the show. In fact, in 2000 shows I remember him saying very kind words about Joe Liberman, and even a few about Ralph Nader. —ZT |

Monday, August 9, 2004 at 8:14 PM I almost wish Kerry were a pinko commie. Then he might actually have strong, detailed positions on the important issues of our time. I can't respect a candidate who refuses to tell you what he really thinks. —Coleman |

Tuesday, August 10, 2004 at 5:30 AM How do you know what George Bush really thinks? By the cadence of his stuttering and stumbling as he reads a speech that someone else wrote for him?
All the candidates are a joke, as is anyone who respects any of them. —MajandraFan |

Tuesday, August 10, 2004 at 5:13 PM Well, based on his actions for the past four years as President, we have a pretty good idea what George W. Bush's foreign policies would be: a repeat of his first term in office. With Kerry, all we have to go on are 1) his spotty and inconsistent voting record, and 2) his frustratingly vague public statements on the subject. This isn't even remotely adequate for making an accurate judgment, although John Lewis Gaddis makes a semi-persuasive argument that a Kerry administration would not differ substantially from the Bush administration regarding the war in Iraq or our Middle Eastern policies. You've finally made a good point, MajandraFan. It certainly is a sad sign of the declining intellectual quality of our political leadership that the last President to write his own speeches was, as far as I can tell, Theodore Roosevelt. Bad times. —Coleman |

Edited Wednesday, August 11, 2004 at 1:09 AM Actually, Calvin Coolidge (in office 1923-29) was the last President to write all his own speeches. I, too, seem to recall Drew mentioning he was a registered Republican. Maybe he was an independent before 9/11 and a Republican afterward. Somebody call up tomorrow and ask him. BTW, you can be a Republican and still have nice things to say about Lieberman and Nader. Especially Nader--why do you think Republicans are helping finance Nader's campaign? —snuffy |

—snuffy Divide and conquer. Based on his actions, he doesn't decide policy or even what he wears, because he can't TALK. Or READ. You fucking dickhead. —MajandraFan |

Wednesday, August 11, 2004 at 2:50 AM Divide and conquer Yup. That's why Republicans might say good things about Nader...and give him lots of money. Good boy, MajaFan! George Bush doesn't decide policy? WTF are you talking about? Of course he decides policy. Dyslexia and a speech impediment don't prevent him from doing that. They only increase the chance that his policy will be ill-informed and poorly justified. Don't be hostile. I thought we were friends. —snuffy |

Wednesday, August 11, 2004 at 11:30 AM I'm not sure I should respond to opponents who stoop to hurling playground insults at me. Didn't George W. Bush choose his own advisors? He certainly didn't inherit them from his daddy, because Cheney is the only member of Bush Junior's inner circle to also hold a cabinet position in Bush Senior's administration. In fact, Daddy Bush and most of his advisors (particularly Secretaries of State James Baker and Lawrence Eagleburger) advised against Junior's invasion of Iraq. Daddy's advisors subscribe to the "realist" doctrine of cozying up to third-world dictators; whereas Junior's advisors hold a very different view. Presumably, Junior chose these advisors because he agreed with their basic outlook. Any advice they give him probably reflects his own world-view. And, as snuffy pointed out, the President is ultimately responsible for his administration's foreign policy. If he chooses to take bad advice, or stupidly misinterprets good advice, it is still his ultimate responsibility. Anyway, if you despise George Bush so much, why would you want to relieve him of responsibility for his errors? —Coleman |
