Republicans to TMZ: We Can't Hear You!

They better get some nurses to Minnesota, stat -- because some big time Republicans developed serious hearing problems in the Twin Cities. Former Senator Fred Thompson, MN Guv Tim Pawlenty, Rep. Adam Putman went deaf on us, when we asked 'em about Bristol Palin and her Levi guy.

91. Hey #84 - why should they ask a question about the economy or Iraq - it's something the Republicans have been avoiding the past 3 days - not one speech has said anything about the middle class, the economy, college costs, health care, social security etc... And as for your comment about the reporter forming complete sentences, I could tell that he is just an average working joe and probably a minority - you sound racist to me!!!

To # 79 LA:

To call Sarah Palin's child a "retard" is reprehensible. I realize you were trying to get a little attention for yourself, but really, is it necessary to show your ignorance, your lack of compassion and ridicule a baby?

Pah. You are pathetic.

93. Hey there - you know, I rarely go to your videos and watch them. It takes up a lot of time and I am just not that interested. For some reason, I went ahead and clicked on the video you have of Fred Thompson and the politicians whom you said wouldn't respond to you about the Palin daughter. I have to say, I was shocked! I can't believe you put that up there. Not because of any scandal, but because it makes your photographer and/or whomever was asking the questions look like a total idiot. Do your people have any education at all? The people might have been compelled to stop and answer questions, but they clearly didn't feel they had to respond to an idiot who cannot speak properly. Sure, I know he was in a hurry. I've done that job before. I am a former reporter. That was embarrassing. If I was that guy, I don't believe I would have turned that footage in to my editor. What an idiot! (Did I say that already?) I think I will go back to not watching the videos. I was on to something there.

94. TMZ can diss other people...and the Republicans...but they still cant come up with anything on Barak!!! Barak has manipulated the media...just as Clinton did....Obama has something to hide and if we were to find out...he would be ruined. I question why he is secrective...why he hides....people need to read"The Case Against Obama"

95. Dear A**holes: I can't believe you are calling an infant a "retard"!!!!! Downs Syndrom is not mental retardation-just so you know. I cannot believe the vulgar stuff on these comments. Talking about aborting babies and the like. Maybe if your mother would have aborted you, the world would be a much better place. How do you like them apples? And, when did being a Republican and a Christan make you a redneck? Seems like the librals have nothing better to do than to sit at home while living on welfare blogging about a pregnant 17 year old. How bout you go get a job. See, when I make assumptions about you-you don't like it very well!!!!

96. TMZ-You have hit an all time low. You are a bunch of Liberal Blowhards. Don't you have anything better to report. Maybe the African American woman who works for you feels the Loreal/Beyonce case, still needs to be solved. You are a bunch of liberal blowhards, who support Obama. Why do you not feel the need to investigate and harass him? He is after all his "brother's keeper." Yet his brother is a Militant Muslim who lives in a hut in Africa. If TMZ really had balls, they would address Obama's issues. But they are too scared to be called racist, so they rely on being sexist instead. Excuse me while I go an vomit!!!

Vote McCain Nov. 4th!!

97. Sarah Palin wants the media to report about her teenage son who has joined the military to fight in Iraq. However, she admonishes anyone who asks about her knocked-up teenage daughter. Wtf?

Then, she exploits her disabled son and and pregnant daughter as arguments for her ferociously anti-choice stance. Apparently, it's acceptable to talk about Bristol when crusading against abortion, otherwise Bristol is not to be discussed.

How about not placing your vulnerable kid center stage in front of millions of pissed off Americans? Nice mothering, Sarah. Your ambition for higher office is soooo much more important than providing a stable and nurturing home environment for your daughter.

Railing against sex education and freedom of choice have yielded her a pregnant teen. I suggest she spend a little more time taking care of her daughter and special-needs four-month old. They need her much more than we do.

98. Hey sarahhp - I'm a democrat voting for obama and a doctor. I worked during college and medical school. No welfare checks here. However, I do agree that calling an individual with any congenital neurological problem a "retard" is simply ignorant.

99. What's wrong with calling infants retards? You can talk about older people but not babies. Please, we call it like we see it. A retard is a retard. She needs to be at home tending to him. She knows he's a retard and that's why she gave him that retarded name Trig. You do the math, Palin did. 23+24= 47 chromosomes. She should have used protection herself, she knew the risks for having a baby over 40! Get over it, geez, you all are reprehensible.
