Vieira: "My sons didn't want to protest. They chose to not go, or even just experience it. I wish they had because it was peaceful, the New York City police department, phenomenal. They did such a wonderful job. They had 40,000 of them out there and the people that demonstrated I would say, by and large, there were a few probably, I didn't see anybody that was out of hand at all."
Star Jones: "Aren't you impressed that your kids made choices? You know, one son decided ideologically he just disagreed with you, and he didn't want to be there so that nobody could misinterpret his presence."
Barbara Walters: "It was interesting when you mentioned the war, that here it is, and instead of discussing the Iraq War that much, we're discussing Vietnam war 35 years later. Doesn't make any sense."
Vieira replied: "I know, I know."

SHE'S THE ONLY ONE THAT GETS IT!!!
BWWAHHAAA!!!
I see this man knows how to deal with the imbuciles permeating the quisling media these days, huh?
...gotta love ol' Rudy, don'tcha?
I'm confident Rudy can hold his own. Go get 'em Rudy.
Bunch of washed up old women who have no sense of honor, duty, country, decency. May they rot in hell.
Does anyone believe for one moment that Joy-less Behar was thinking.....oh I wish Al Gore was the president on that awful day?
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent miscellaneous ping list.
I have no clue who these folks are, but they're idiots.
That one put Kerry down for the count.
Shalom.
Guiliani should have pointed out the "For or against us" line was directed at NATIONS that either align with us, or through their inaction and self-interest give aid and comfort to the enemy.
And Viera and the other Manhattanite airheads marching to oppose the president on the liberation of Iraq DOES give aid and comfort to the enemy, and emboldens them to keep spilling US blood to fire up the opposition to the war here in the US. Thanks Meredith, you friggin' ditz.
I think all the quotes from the women on this show pretty much translate into "Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck!" Gawdamighty, what a bunch of cackling brainless hens! I give Guiliani credit for sitting through it.
Giuliani: "The idea that taking out Saddam Hussein wasn't part of the War On Terrorism really misunderstands the War On Terrorism."Behar: "No, but people say it was a distraction from going after bin Laden."
Giuliani: "No it wasn't! Saddam Hussein was one of the principal supporters of international terrorism. He was sitting on top of $4 billion or $5 billion, he had used weapons of mass destruction, and Abu Nidal, who killed Leon Klinghoffer and maybe about 25 other Americans and a hundred other people, was operating out of Iraq."
Behar: "So were the Saudis!" .
The proper response to this DNC/Michael Moore talking point is always "So then you support going to war against Saudi Arabia?"
Behar: "I know, but so would Al Gore. Don't you think he would have been as tough on it? Of course he would. Any President would respond."Sure Gore would have attacked Afghanistan and removed the Taliban from power and scooped up Al Qaeda members-- just like Bill did when Al Qaeda attacked us all those times. Oh, wait.Elisabeth Hasselbeck: "I don't think so." [Audience applause]
Giuliani: "No."
Behar: "You don't?"
Giuliani: "No, I don't think there's any chance at all that Al Gore would have been as determined. I think Al Gore would have backed off now about four times with the kind of criticism that George Bush [trails off]" [Audience applause and boos] . Giuliani: "Taking out Saddam Hussein was critical to defeating global terrorism."
Though overall it sure looks like Rudy put his foot in a few butts pretty hard, straight and true -- There is one thing I wish he would have said to further clarify the point about with-us-or-against-us:
Yes, you can have misgivings about the invasion of Iraq without being unpatriotic. It's the REASONS GIVEN for said misgivings/objections/dissent that determines whether you are patriotic or not.
For example: if you're a military wife with 5 mouths to feed and no family or support system to help you if your husband is KIA, I can understand being against invading Iraq.
But if you take the Michael Moore/Noam Chomsky/Jim McDermott/Hollywood line that the invasion of Iraq is more evidence that America is an inherently evil, corrupt, genocidal institution, then I don't know how much more UN-patriotic can get than that. Sheesh -- with "patriots" like that, who needs traitors?
The View, or as Hubby calls it "The Screaming Witches"
He pronounces "Witches" with a "B" though.
George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent
Pres Bush aimed his "With us or with the terrorists" statement at OTHER COUNTRIES, not the other political party! Here's the quote in context:
"And we will pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism. Every nation, in every region, now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists."

Behar: "I know, but so would Al Gore. Don't you think he would have been as tough on it? Of course he would. Any President would respond."
Al Bore said "I would have found out why they were mad at us."
Behar, your proctologist called, they found your head.
