“The Terrs never messed with Dick Cheney”


Well, if he shot his friend, when he wasn’t trying, what would he do to a terrorist he was actually trying to hit?

Did Pelosi order the hit to put her one step closer to the White House?

So glad to see Gen. Petraeus in cammies back in theater.
This is one Great American

Yes, he is and I had the pleasure of meeting him in 2007.

General "O" is a great guy too. He just never smiles.

I'm sure that's why he headed to the Embassy.

They have a couple of really nice bars there.

Rockets are smarter.

You're probably right about that.....rockets are unguided and go off wherever they fall but the similarities are apparent.
