I didn't hear it, but I am sure it was sincere. I'm sure he would like to get the reports off his back also, but I believe he was probably mad.

His son recently enlisted, and I believe he quit his job to do so. His was almost 30 years old, and is certainly someone who didn't need to enlist, but started thinking about it after 9/11.

I could complain for a while about Daley, but he is not an anti-military dem.

It's time for people to start stepping up and calling these fools on this out of control talk!

Daley's son just enlisted not too long ago...

Ah...yeah, that might do it. I think most Dems are happy with the fiction that anything goes in bashing Bush but that they still support the troops. Durbin crossed that line by a long way.

This just happened earlier today.

The local news outlets don't even have it up on their Web sites yet.

Dick Daley has problems of his own with U.S. Attorney Fitzgerald breathing fire down his neck. He will be lucky to survive politically.

Daley is an imbecile. And he would do anything to get or keep power, even say this stuff himself. But he gets very agitated when anyone threatens to rock his boat. For political reasons, he needs to get the ducks back in line.

Expulsion would be better than censure. No doubt about it.

Call or email your Senators and Senator Frist and ask for them to sponsor a censure resolution against Durbin. I did.

He stated yesterday that this was not at the level of a censure. Yes, that's your pubbie leadership - your other faction of this "Two-Party Cartel".

Daley is not happy with this kind of idiocy for more than one reason. His son, Patrick, just enlisted in the Army after getting an MBA from the University of Chicago. Patrick is a patriot. And such stupid comments just lose votes for the Rats. While he is happy for any distraction from the thieving, looting and general skullduggery of his administration I don't think this is why the Mayor has said this.

Comments such as Durbin's are worth their weight in gold to those patriots who care about their country. Each word can be measured in votes lost. Speak up Dick the nation wants to know what you really think.
