Sen. Dick Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, took the Senate floor yesterday and likened American servicemen to Nazis . . .

A photo of Durbin would require a Barf Alert.

On another occasion, not only was the temperature unbearably hot, but extremely loud rap music was being played...

durbin's statement is so disgusting--

to those that died in nazi germany, the u.s.s.r., cambodia, etc,

not to mention the ideals of our military and country

--that durbin should resign.

"Turban Durbin" is very funny----I heard Savage tonight and he was enraged,as well he should be.

The people of Illinois ought to get rid of this America hater and maybe he could catch up on his history and put the Guantanamo stuff into some perspective.

What an idiot he is.

More treason from the party of treason. This is getting more disgusting by the day. This Gitmo bashing is just to the point of playing into Al Qaeda's hands and emboldening them. Democrats dividing the nation on Iraq was bad enough. Now they're dividing the nation on the fight against Al Qaeda. These Democrats are absolutely vile and disgusting. Then they wonder why we think they're traitors.

Turbin Durbin belittles and desecrates the memories of the MILLIONS who suffered and died at the hands of the nazis and soviets.

He is a traitor! I have never heard Turbin Durbin makes statements, speeches, or in any interview where he slams terrorists for cutting off heads of prisoners, for blowing the arms and legs off of innocent babies, for randomly killing men, women, children, entire families.

By his silence on these matters he endorses their actions.

Durbin hates the military and by equating them to the nazis and soviets he spits on the memories of all the brave military men and women protecting his sorry ass.

Somebody ought to ask Durbin where he'd prefer to do time, Guantanamo or Joliet. And then send him there.

The title reminds me of every liberal for the past 4 years "I support the troops BUT..."
Whatever comes after the BUT usually confirms what you suspected in the first place, that they don't support the troops at all.

And what about the puppet shows? When I heard we were subjecting terrorists to puppet shows, man, I was sick with shame...

Durbin has got to be the most annoying Senator to come along since Leahy -- truly loathsome creatures.

I'd place my Senator, Barbara Boxer, down there in the company of Leahy and Durbin.

Durbin knows who the real bad guys are! It's the U.S. military!

Durbin is merely reflecting forty years of Democrat leftist pap. It has left him unable to distinguish between us and the Nazis. How can you entrust the government to these people?

Hugh Hewitt had a liberal on his show tonight who was one of those ultra feminine "males". Anyway this idiot said that the people who jummped to their death from the WTC had a better option than those poor terrorists at gitmo who were forced to pee on themselves.
