"Te Ray Za says that anyone who didn't serve can't criticize her husband's military service."
Hmmm. I wonder if she means served-served in the military, like in the regular service, or is she including the National Guard. Since her present hubby mentioned "avoiding the service" and the National Guard in the same breathe, does she include the N.G. as not serving? If so, it should be pointed out to her that her first husband was a National Guardsman. Maybe she forgot.

She did say something to the effect that "the source does not matter," which I find curious to say the least...
Is she the source or as the dems like to carp, part of the "chain of command" for the leak? Or is the transferred staffer on her staff?
As to pain in who represents the State of NY, in CA we have Boxer and Feinstein and in our area we can add Woolsey, who supports rapists not troops.

Faith...I have a mission for you, if you can stomach it. You and anyone else reading this. PLEASE watch the nightly news on the networks and write down the names of the people who advertise on their "news" shows.
I'm only now sorta kinda catching up on the thread, so I apologize if this has been mentioned.
Money...Money...Money. That's what matters.
We can all call/fax/write these bozo networks and it'll only inflame them more. Now...if we as Freepers decide to hit the sponsors of said shows...I do believe we could make an impact.
I hope.
Signing off now,
Pollyanna

Yes, Private England is pregnant. She probably got pregnant on purpose thinking it would make them go easy on her.

Excellent idea.
We need to compile a list of the major advertisers on brokaw, rather, and jennings.
Local ads also appear during these newscasts, and we ought to voice our displeasure to them, too.

I sent Fox an email about Hillary's slip up and Rummy's reply, asked them to investigate because I am sure none of the other media will. Sure hope Brit looks into it.

"The rats looked at the polls which show most Americans support Rummy."
Do you think it had anything to do with the article posted earlier today that Kerry had called all the Dems on these committees and asked them to go easy today because he's afraid it will bring more of a focus on his Vietnam crimes allegations?

Did Clinton ignore several opportunities to capture Bin Laden...including one opportunity as late as 2000?
Monsoor Ijaz testified just that before the commission today.
Kasick asks about 'apologies' for prison abuse. He thinks Arabs believe it is an aberration, but the problem is the loudest voices are the fanatical ones. This is not unusual as far as what they're used to in their countries, but will they want to hold us accountable for their own political objectives rather than what really happened.
Kasick says, why you? (commission testimony). Ijaz says was a witness to important events and negotiated an unconditional offer with the Sudan to share intelligence with U.S.. Included very damning evidence that Bin Laden had ties to the militia that killed our Marines in Mogadishu in 1993.
He told the commission that in their overall assessment of things that they needed a much better understanding of things. That there are real political ties, good/bad intelligence use, egos..personal agendas....none of this has been looked at so far. He used the Sudan intervention as a case study.
He gave the commission the specific name of the person they knew in early 1996 - before the Sudan made the offer to the U.S.- that tied Bin Laden organization to the Mogadishu militias. This would have given the Dept. of Justice the evidence they needed to hand down an indictment and that indictment would have been the basis on which we would have brought Bin Laden to the U.S.
What did commissioners say? Ijaz doesn't want to say they were stunned....but they didn't say a whole lot.
His key recommendation is that in countries where we have difficult relationships we craft a policy where we engage on a military level..training people, teacher exchange programs. Big problem to fix long term.
Second recommendation, if a country is on the state sponsor of terrorism list, bring military and intelligence officials to U.S. talk to them...find out what they're doing and a way to work with us to get off the list.
I taped and then transcribed the tape. I type too slowly to get it live.

"Also, doesn't Kennedy write Al Sadr's talking points?"
Nah, since Teddy got caught using other people's writings in college, it's more than likely Al Sadr's been writing Teddy's speech's and talking points.
To: Brad's Gramma
LOL.
OK, BG, I will. The dogwalk was pleasant--I listened to Michael Savage on the Walkman and he has never been better.
We really need to stop what they are doing. I think your "follow the money" strategy is truly inspired and the path that we must take.
Thanks,

Madeline Albright is on Hannity & Colmes saying that if she were Rumsfeld that she would be so ashamed that she would resign. I'll believe that when hell freezes over. How can she say that with a straight face?

Maddie Albright on H&C lying through her teeth. Saying if she were in Rummy's position she'd be so ashamed, she'd resign.
Also saying she doesn't know why it took so long to begin an investigation. What a (*&$#!

A complete divestment strategy must also be adopted.
You know what else might be a good approach. A mass mailing campaign to average citizens. I think we could work with local organizations and reach out to our neighbors. We have to go over and around the media.
We should develop newsletters containing websites, information (i.e. the percentage of Democrats in the media --9 in 10) and all sorts of other things to get our word out and pass them out in our neighborhoods. That would be great. We shouldn't use curse words, we should use persuasion. Good letters, fact based and friendly. We need to take our country back from the Leftists. We have to push back.

I would like to kick her in the teeth. She says our credibility has never been worse. I wonder if she means like chasing Arafat screaming please wait, don't leave?
