"Do these democrats think they are the representative government of the USA?"

No kidding! I am SICK TO DEATH of them! Between Kerry and now this bs, I'm ready to blow, LOL!

Do they not see how transparent they are? Who is orchestrating this cr@p? It can't be Dean...he's not that smart! It's got to be the Hillary '08 Election Team.

It's just so bogus...I can't begin to describe it! And it ticks me off that the Republicans are letting them steal even one tiny spark of our thunder!

Well, there's always hope for her to become a hostage. I find it hard to believe they can find any Marines willing to throw themselves on a grenade for those hosers! (Yes, I know; Marines would do their jobs, no matter what, no matter who.)

Our tax dollars at work. Grrrrr!!

well I don't know how to plan these trips......plus with that reasoning, then I would have to hate Pres Bush 41 cause he is in Indonesia with Clinton.....I just am not as reactionary as many here.....sometimes I'm proved wrong but I'd rather be like Karl Rove.....don't overreact, watch, think strategically and plan.....I just think McCain is more good than bad but of course I know that many here dislike him intensely....he still votes 80% with the Repubs.....I'm not a McCain supporter but I certainly don't hate the man.........there are enough Dems around to fulfill my "hate" meter.......life is too short

Chinito remembered Hurl-at-me's last visit to the troops and the warm welcome she got back then . .

#71

It reminded me of the signals caught in the photograph when our naval vessel was captured illegally by North Korea and they released their propaganda photo and unknowingly told the world what we knew all along . .

USS Pueblo incident, 1968

USS Pueblo Crew during North Korean propaganda Broadcast


In early December, the North Koreans finally figured out what the finger meant and began to take revenge upon the men; this began a period referred to as Hell Week. Hell Week actually lasted 10 days and the beatings and injuries sustained were more severe than at any other time in captivity. This was going on at the same time as negotiations to free the men and when an agreement had been reached, the beatings stopped very suddenly and the crew received medical attention to prepare them for release and the media storm that would follow. The crew used many examples like this to exert their resistance to their captors without them knowing, which amounted to a mental victory despite their physical defeat. Another example of the psychological abuse the crew suffered was the time that the crew was given pen knives and forced to get on their knees and cut the grass in the yard of the compound. The grass was used later as a salad and eaten by the crew.

Works either way (if you assume it is a quote by the Senator).

Don't know if any of you actually saw the press conference but if you did, I'm interested in your take on the following:

Thanks so much for the report, dk. I was getting ready for a meeting and missed the exchange to which you refer. There is a reason why some see McCain as a loose cannon. The whole bunch are just over there as part of their respective campaigns for the presidency but given the "save" by Graham I'm giving him a pass on this one. Hillary! sounded like such a complete fool I found myself muttering that this woman will never be president. I would love to see the transcript.

Thanks for bringing my attention to this...I missed the press conference. I'm happy to see that Graham stepped up but in some ways it seems his style. He seems to associate himself with the opinion that provides the best political opportunity (which, so far, looks to be to make a national name for himself).

They can stay there too. Pull their documents and throw them out.

I must make a comment on Collins behalf. I turned on the TV just prior to the vote on Chertoff's confirmation.

Evidently Kennedy had been out there slashing and burning Chertoff and the administration.

Collins, the last to speak before the vote, really smacked Teddy down in no uncertain terms.

While not repeating his hate speech, she said she disagreed with every one of his criticisms of Chertoff, the committee and the administration.

I could not have asked for a better representative. It was extremely well delivered and all the more important considering it was Collins.
