Didn't ED say this morning that coming up was senator Nancy Pelosi from California before going to a commercial break?? Or was I having a nightmare!

[SuzanneC]

Thanks for that.

[Verginius Rufus]

The only two to vote against Condi were John Kerry and Barbara Boxer. They could be looking ahead to the 2008 race. The Democrat Dream Team for 2008: John Kerry and Barbara Boxer!

[ken21]

i agree. on display the democrats made themselves look bad.

but, as rush says, the democrat party is imploding.

the natural thing to do, is to get out the way. but they're not doing that.

[Piquaboy]

I hope that these people keep it up as they are digging their own hole. Kerry is as bad as Boxer with his inane statements that prove his own stupidity.

[avitot]

in europe the term for barbara boxer would be KAPO

[JLAGRAYFOX]

But, we have great "tape" clips to play for the American electorate in 2006. The sound bites of Boxer, Kerry will play well throughout the country.

[MizSterious]

CG, you are so right! No matter how insulting Boxer was (and it got really bad at times), Rice just answered reasonably and politely. That's real class, a word most 'Rats don't understand and have never learned.

One can hope. The Republicans, for some reason, have a history of being reluctant to play hardball.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

They just keep on digging.

[Phrostie]

I wanted Gonzales to ask Kennedy if he had been to Chappaquiddick lately. And I wouldn't have blamed Rice had she told Boxer to stuff it.

I would love to have had Condi ask Boxer the reason for her racist comments.

Condi, however left no doubt as to who is the real lady. Smarter, and with more class than an any known Democrat.

[wallcrawlr]

Senator, why the hate?

[highflight]

Boxer and Biden = condescending

Dr. Rice = Condi ascending

[redcountyrepublican]

Unfortunately Lugar is my Senator and I sent him a e-mail telling him that my streak of straight Republican ballot voting will be broken, as I will no longer be voting for him.

[MizSterious]

Good one!

[Phrostie]

Great!

Gulp! Well, wait a minute. Get pictures of Pelosi, Feinstein, and boxer together and try to tell the difference between them. The three each look like they should be riding a broom and screetching ," I'll get you and your little dog too!"

[Corporate Law]

Further evidence her Botox injections are going too deep and affecting her judgment.

[cajungirl]

she is a southern lady and while I have mixed feelings about my southerness, we know how to do "lady" stuff, damn, we are so good at the southern lady stare and manner,,no one can rival us.
