‘Never lie to me’: Bush to Daschle

The Hill ^ | 10/15/03 | Albert Eisele

Then, on the evening of Monday, May 14, Assistant Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada told Daschle that Jeffords wanted to meet with them in his hideaway office in the Capitol the next morning..... “It was 7 a.m. when Harry and I arrived at Jim’s hideaway that Tuesday morning....

What is this "hideaway office" thing? I never heard about these before.
Does every Senator have a "hideaway office", and if so, what for??

[q_an_a]

he says at least twice in this story how he underestimated what president Bush ment by his demand for honesty and clear communication. too bad, so sad. you are history. but only for a few weeks in ten years daschle is a trivia questions.

[Gumption]

Maybe it's like a fort, or tree house kind of thing. You know, for the guys ... NO WOMEN ALLOWED!

Or it could be something else but I'd have to ask you your age before I tell you.

[Lancey Howard]

• His low opinion of his former Senate colleague, John Ashcroft (R-Mo.), whose fitness to serve as attorney general he questions because he has “openly and defiantly used the power of his positions to advance his right-wing ideology.”

It is absolutely no surprise that a scumbag like Dascle would have a low opinion of a decent and honorable man like Ashcroft. Talk about polar extremes! And it could have been Ashcroft or any of about fifty other people who warned Bush that Daschle was a liar.

"His disdain for former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) who he said was bent on “demonizing” Democrats and portraying them as not only wrong or misguided but “evil,”..."

Newt didn't have to do anything, Little Tommy Dasshole and his Democrap "Hate the United States" Party do so by breathing!

Harry Reid and Jim Jeffords?? Ewwwww....

Bump and thanks for posting this!

I guess he means that Gore didn't order the Army to surround the White House. How big of him.

Or the lawsuit against her to establish the liability for the deaths of those doctors because of her slipshod policies and pocketing money? I guess what frosts me is that Tommy is married to someone who presents a conflict of interest with his position as a Senator, as well as Dorgan in ND, who is married to a lobbyist who appears (or did in the past) in front of committees on which he sits!

Sorry about the double post, sometimes my happy finger gets away from me!

[Salvey]

I am sure it will be as widely read as Jim Wright's book.

And marketed in the same manner !

“That statement caught me up short. What an unusual concern to express in such a meeting.… I’ve often wondered since then what George Bush might have been told about me that would make him begin this conversation, this relationship, from an implied position of mistrust.”

He didn't have to be told anything. It was mere observation, Mr. Daschle.

[Samwise]

However, he credits Gore with acting in the nation’s best interests by not challenging the results of the 2000 election.

Hilarious stuff ... the Left INVENTED this technique! Just precious!

"Did I miss something? Didn't Gore challenge the results of the 2000 election"


...That ridiculous statement kinda jumps out at you doesn't it?
...Two people who had good reason to challenge an election but didn't: Richard Nixon-1960 and John Ashcroft in Missouri in 2000.

[BillF]

Didn't Gore challenge the results of the 2000 election?

You gonna believe your own lyin' eyes or Daschle?

Daschle was so upset about Bush telling him not to lie. If you don't believe him, then he will really be deeply disappointed and saddened.

[Fledermaus]

Geez, this is total drivel. Which tells me Daschle must have actually wrote it since it's his psychotic style.

And he proves, yet again, that liberals like him to nothing but accuse others of the EXACT things they themselves do to everyone else.

What hypocrisy and total BS.

I hope the people of South Dakota wake up and put this guy where he belongs in 2004...an asylum.
