Why do all these guys give half hour speeches before they get around to any questions.
It looked like Democratic Sound Bite Nite to me instead of getting on with the business of approving Dr. Rice - which
will happen in spite of all their blowhard rhetoric.
Boooooooooring.
She lived up to her reputation - bless her.
They need to show that they know at least half as much about Iraq as Dr Rice does.
"Why do all these guys give half hour speeches before they get around to any questions."
To quote (at least similar) a former president: "Because I could..."
This is the chance for these weak-spined, impotent jerks to make themselves look sooooo important and sooooo necessary! If any of these 'progressives' had to undergo similar questioning, they'd break down in tears...and the MSM would absolutely crucify any conservative daring to question so harshly! I really do detest these hearings.
Looks like Dr. Rice is soring like an eagle even though she is surrounded by a bunch of turkeys.
Right! Then they complain that they are out of time before asking all their questions.
Politicians are a different breed.
