The White House engaged in a divide-and-conquer strategy with congressional Democrats that isolated Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle and won support for a resolution authorizing military force against Iraq.

The plan resulted in President Bush being surrounded in the Rose Garden yesterday by prominent Democrats who pledged support for the resolution. Mr. Daschle, meanwhile, was left to issue a one-page statement at the Capitol saying he expected the Senate to give Mr. Bush his way.

Gephardt's polling data must have scared the hell out of him.

This time he decided to stand by President Bush in the Rose Garden instead of holding little Mullah Da$$hole up on his shoulders in some gutter of DC.

The trip to Iraq by the three Jihad Islamakazi Licker Congressits has back fired tremendously. Only the maggot left that hates America and loves Saddam cheered them.

Watching Daschle wither on the vine is priceless!

This is going to be a very unusual election cycle.

Now you folks watch Evan Bayh. He's the darkest of dark horses right now but he is an eminently responsible young Democrat without the showboating, crass nature of a John Edwards.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

The White House canceled that meeting because administration officials were not sure of the position of Mr. Daschle, who said last week that Mr. Bush was politicizing national security and the war on terrorism. Instead, congressional sources said, the White House began negotiating directly with Mr. Gephardt.

Quick! Someone ready a rubber room for Babs. She's gonna need it!

Correct. He is my senator. He is dangerous.

His father is Birch Bayh, who was defeated by Dan Quayle. Birch Bayh, you might remember, saved Ted Kennedy's life by pulling him out of that plane crash.

Bayh was educated at St. Alban's, married a very pretty woman who is an attorney, has twin sons, and executive hair.

He talks a moderate line, but votes more liberally when called upon. He has even fooled some of the so-called political experts here in Indiana.

I worry that he will run, and he would be a formidable opponent.

The problem for Daschle is that he still hasn't figured out that he is playing with the big boys now. Appearantly, Lieberman has figured this out - I don't know if Gephardt has yet, but with the advent of the Baghdad three, the light may be starting to dawn.

I believe the light may have just gone out. So sad, isn't it? (sarcasm).

"We will ..., turn them one against another, drive them from place to place, until there is no refuge or rest." (President George W. Bush, September 20, 2001)

President Bush made this statement in a joint session of Congress, describing how he intends to fight terrorism. Apparently, he feels it to be a great strategy to fight other opponents as well. So do I!

Is there any truth to the rumor floating around that BS and little Mullah Tommy Da$$hole are trying to have an affair? It appears that ee just can't find a big enough inner tube to strap on his little butt to keep from falling into the pit. He is apparently afraid that in a moment of passion her nose could become a lethal weapon.

A picture of little Mullah Dasshole during happier times.
