Did you see my newer photo in "the teeshirt"

[Txsleuth]

Wolf showed clip of Levin's remarks at the hearing.

Feith said that what Levin said was about as WRONG as anything could be..

Wolf is trying SO hard to make Feith out to be a liar.
and STILL wants him to say that there never was any connection between al-queda and Iraq.

Feith says that he hasn't seen anything thats says there WASN'T any connection..but that the CIA and Tenet spelled out many times they were in contact in the 10 years prior to the war.

I was just watching a tape of Chrissie's show..one of the guests said that the Senate Dems are becoming fedc up with Lieberman, and also he with theml. He all but predicted that Lieberman would switch and caucus with the GOP..giving control of the Senate back to the Pubbies..

Good morning, and YES! Great photo. You are looking great in it. My wife wants one of those t-shirts now too. LOL Thanks!

Lott, as is the case with many Republicans, seems to be fierce and fearless when he's a member of the Senate minority. Luckily, in the Senate attacking from a minority position is often more potent than defending the majority position.

Robert Reiccchhhh sat next to Cokie Roberts at the rat round table including confused George Will who can't answer anything non baseball in a clear and concise manner.
Anyway Cokie who stands about 6'5 and Gen. Reich who is about 4'8" even sitting on four phone books gave a cool look for a rat round table less David.

I'm happy on Lieberman's stance on national security. I have serious doubts, however, he would make a change...unless he plans on retiring after his current term. It's unlikely his constituents would support him in 2012 if he changed parties.

[rodguy911]

I think the only conservative who has a chance is the guy from Calif. and the fact that I can't remember his name is not good.

[Phsstpok]

I just finished watching Feith with Wallace. Man, talk about a one sided outcome! Wallace should know not to come unarmed to a battle of wits!

A star is born. Feith needs to be a regular contributor on some panel. Brit, are you listening?

I'll also keep a sharp eye out to see if any of the Republican candidates take Feith on as an adviser. I'll look very favorably on that candidate.

[Txsleuth]

Feith said that Rockefeller, Levin and others have been very critical of the CIA intelligence...

Which is exactly what Feith did...but his criticism was called "inappropriate"....but it is okay for those Senators to be critical.

He said that doesn't make sense.....and poor Wolf didn't like that very simple answer.

[rodguy911]

I may have over done it on the cereal today!!LOL

[edpc]

I think you mean Duncan Hunter. I don't know enough about him to say yea or nay.

[norwaypinesavage]

"who owns the examiner? Is that a publicly traded stock, or is it privately held. I would LOVE to invest in it!"

Seemed like a good idea to me, after you suggested it. I checked it out. It's owned by Philip Anschutz. You can buy him out for only about $8 billion.

[greyfoxx39]

Not surprising the muslim Fayad, Harrod's owner, bans military. Why would they want to shop there anyway?

[rodguy911]

Good catch sleuth. Standard glom on to the front running phony behavior for the rat media.

[snugs]

:o)

[samantha]

You are right on with that assertion. it is the truth. Cronkite looked old and grandfatherly even when he was young, but most of the Media guys are all hat and no Cattle. Tom Brokaw was good looking , but always sounded like he needed to blow his nose. Rather was fairly good looking, Petah Jennings,Brian Williams. Most of the older Media Guys were seasoned reporters that just flat out got lazy and partisan. Today's reporters/Journalists have no real reporting background. It is voice and attractive appeal o mostly women viewers. Timmah is the exception very unattractive, and is not a Journalist, he is a ^&$%%^&^& Lawyer, who worked for Liberal Rats. We know where Stepphie came from. Schieffer is like another Cronkite, old Grandfatherly type that is trusted because you can just hear his bones creak. LOL!

[Bahbah]

He all but predicted that Lieberman would switch and caucus with the GOP..giving control of the Senate back to the Pubbies.

If that is so, it will be interesting to watch Harry Reid. He will be frantic to retain his power.

[Chgogal]

Have I got a lovely post for you. You will enjoy it if you haven't heard it yet. Pass the word via a ping list if you really like it.

It really is quite good!

[samantha]

I don't know if that is good or bad....I sure would like to have something decent where I live. I hate the Tampa Tribune.
