[what's up]

Dick Durbin, Castro's sidekick for Cuba.

[jec41]

Thank you Mr. Bush, now can we have this SOB arrested, jailed, and tried for treason. He has conspired to create injury to my son and others in Iraq. He has also tried to subvert this country in a time of war.

[IrishGOP]

Why doesn't the "senator" put his money where his mouth is and go to Gitmo and see exactly what goes on. Then while he's there he can visit his friends!

[Bombardier]

Durbin is performing to his party's specs: He's being seditious. Bush's people are performing to their party specs: They're being limp. In time of war for a senator to be blatantly adhering to the enemy, indeed for a whole party to be doing so, says to me that the members of that party are traitors and should be treated as such.

THIS IS POL POT'S HANDIWORK.................... Big difference between this picture and the so-called torture at Gitmo, Dirtbag Durbin.

[InvisibleChurch]

oh, castigates

[caisson71]

Whooaaa, I thought it the headline said "castrates" Durbin. That would be real cowboy diplomacy and no one is more deserving than Durbin.

[Califelephant]

The bottom line is that the Democrats are taking a huge risk by playing the Gitmo card. Their party is already considered "soft" on crime. If they don't already have a reputation of being soft on terrorism, they soon will.

[Tarpon]

Does anyone think this vile person should be in the U.S. Senate leadership? At the minimum the Democrats should ask him to step down.

[rj45mis]

That a**hole Sen. Disturbin can virtually say anything he wants about this administration because, as long as Chicago remains in Illinois, he won't have to be concerned about getting reelected. What a frickin shame!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Finally.

[Adiemus]

According to the dictionary, the word slander is:
" 1. Law. Oral communication of false statements injurious to a person's reputation.
2. A false and malicious statement or report about someone.
"

My daughter is active duty military, and I am a veteran. He has committed slander against us both.

Wonder if a class-action law suit could happen...

[JewishRighter]

WHERE’S THE OUTRAGE FROM REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS ACROSS THE COUNTRY????????

[Deo et Patria]

Can someone post the "Dick Turban" picture again? That one was great.

[88keys]

Durbin should be:

pressured to step down from leadership...

censured by the Senate...

apologize fully for his odious comparisons...

be pressured to resign...

be impeached if he doesn't.

Now, a couple questions for y'all...isn't the FBI "Gitmo report" he bases his dramatic statement on really old news? I'm sure this "report" came out weeks, if not months ago. An obvious "tie-in" is the Time/Newsweek (whichever) report on the 20th hijacker "inside Gitmo"...and I'm still wondering, where and how did the magazine get that classified "log"? Last, and least significant for the moment...what about those ridiculous "Downing Street Minutes" which a close reading shows are quite meaningless, but how did those come to light?

On a lighter note, that idiot Conyers was on C-Span this a.m. blathering about "his" Downing Street hearings today...one of the "star witnesses" will be none other than Joe Wilson of "yellow cake! Niger!" fame...LOL! However, as has been mentioned here before, beware the "drip, drip" of incessant lies and propaganda...

Comments like Turdbin's makes me wish dueling was legal.

Below an email I sent to Senator Kyle earlier:

Dear Senator Kyle

I would like to take an opportunity to register with you my disgust at the remarks of your colleague Senator Durbin comparing conditions at Guantanamo with the Nazi concentration camps.
These comments in a public forum contribute greatly to the cause of the enemies of the United States and undermine the service and morale of our military personnel.

As a 22 year Marine Corps veteran I have an understanding of the need for our miltary personnel to feel that our government will keep faith with them. It appears that the Democratic Leadership in the Senate has stooped to a new rhetorical low in their efforts to hang the troops out to dry in the name of politics.

In Republican Rome, a man could not achieve Senatorial rank with serving his time with the legions. Right now that policy makes more sense to me than ever before in my lifetime.

I feel that as Leaders of this country, the Senate has a responsibility to call into account conduct and statments such as Senator Durbin's. He should be censured by the Senate. He and his ilk make me ashamed of our government, embarrased for our republic, and question why I would ever want my children to serve in a miliary that is at the mercy of his type of leadership.

I would ask that you pass my comments along to Senator Durbin in whatever forum you wish as well as my contact information should he desire to speak with me directly. Thank you.

Has anyone else noticed that the enemy in Iraq have stepped up their terrorist activities lately? People like Dick Durbin and these liberals are encouraging the terrorists by their insane rhetoric. Durbin's comments are unconscionable. His words give encouragement to those who are killing our troops!

Yes, this is just like Vietnam all over again, and the left is using the same play book in their attempt to defeat America. Sap the will of the nation with comments like Durbin's, embolden the enemy bring about more leftist hate-America talk. Create a vicious cycle of timidity on the part of commanders and this is a recipe for defeat and disaster. Are we not already seeing "Republicans" calling for the closing of Gitmo? For the withdrawal of troops? Just like Vietnam. The lefties are employing some of the exact same strategies to sabotage America as they so adroitly did in the 60's and early 70's. It is unconscionable and Republican in power ought to step up to the plate fast before any more lives are lost and damage done.

Get the video from C-span & use it over & over & over again with the general thrust being the Rats think that your sons & daughters serving in the armed forces are the moral equivalent to the guards at Auschwitz. The Rats have sided with the people who brought you 9-11 & video's of people getting their heads sawed off with a dull Ginsu knife to the cries of ALLAHU AKHBAR!!!! DO YOU REALLY WANT TO TRUST THEM TO PROTECT YOU?????
