I always wish I could read her next response to Rummy. Or did she simply slink under the table?.
RUMSFELD: ...The date on my paper here is February 14th. What's yours?Not sure what Sanchez was trying to say after the exchange, but considering that she began her sentence with something as pathetic as "the difference is different in different categories", it sounds like she was just babbling in confusion.
SANCHEZ: December 20th.
RUMSFELD: Not surprising there's a difference.
SANCHEZ: But the difference is different in different categories, not in the same...
HUNTER: If the gentlemen will hold on for a minute, the gentlelady's time is up, and we're going to try to knock out a few more questions here before the...
SANCHEZ: Mr. Chairman, you spoke during my time, Mr. Chairman.
RUMSFELD: I'm going to finish if I may.
HUNTER: OK, Mr. Secretary, if you can wrap up fairly quickly...
RUMSFELD: I'll like to just finish the last thought.
General Petreaus is in charge of the training and equipping of Iraqi security forces. And General Casey and General Abizaid are the ones who advice us as to what the force levels ought to be in the country.
And it appears that General Petreaus doesn't agree with them and that's fine. I'm sure other people don't agree with General Casey or General Abizaid.
But I take my advice on this subject from General Abizaid, General Casey, and General Myers and General Pace, and all four of them think we have the right size force.
UNKNOWN: Thank you.
MYERS: Well, I talked to General Petreaus last Wednesday night on this very subject, and I don't think he would disagree with the force levels we have there that the secretary mentioned earlier. I think he's in agreement with General Casey and General Abizaid.
HUNTER: I thank the gentlelady.
The Democrats have a pathetically shallow bench. I'm afraid the next level down is the intellectual basement and Janeanne Garofalo.
The level of discourse is pathetic.
(Yikes! This is the second thread I got to say "poop" on. Thanks, Democrats!)
Gee what happened between Dec and feb?
Perhaps it was that election thingy?
Just more proof that Democrats are well schooled in the art of lying. She was basically doing a nevil chamberlin by waiving the out dated paper in Rumsfeld's face.
She did not expect him to have the real numbers.
This is hilarious! What did Sanchez do after she got the Rummy smackdown?
LOL!!!
Loretta "Dirty" Sanchez is no match for a very small very dumb flatworm.
She was attempting to build a strawman, and it crumbled right before everyones eyes.
She just sat there looking stupid. I saw the whole hearing on CSPAN last week.
And BTW, wasn't Sanchez the one who was going to hold a fundraiser at the Playboy Mansion until public reaction forced her to relocate the fundraiser?
Oh dear God, I'm howling like a monkey!! :) LOL! My insides just got a good workout.... thanks!
I hope I can use that phrase in a casual conversation sometime today.
