'There's an old rule in politics, and I've seen it many times," said retired Gen. Wesley Clark on Thursday night, as he brushed aside Fox News talker Sean Hannity's demand for him to condemn Sen. Dick Durbin. "Whoever uses the 'Nazi' word first loses," said Clark, the former Democratic presidential candidate who is a political analyst for Fox.

I don't think Durbin was in the house, and I know Obama never was.

They elect these turds right out of the state senate.

I looked it up. Durbin was in the US House of Representatives from 1983 to 1996

Six months ago, Senate Democrats picked Durbin (D-Ill.) to be their No. 2 leader because he is one of the most articulate and informed senators on his side of the aisle.

If Durbin is one of the most articulate and informed senators on his side of the aisle they are in deep, deep trouble.

I think it is that Durbin is more partisan than most on his side of the aisle.

I agree with you .. and Saddam admired Hitler. Maybe that's where his idea for the beheadings came from.
