President George W. Bush re: The War on Terror

>>>We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail.>>>

Every country in the world knows that Bush MEANS what he says except for the United Liberal Blue States of America.

I would hope, and expect that the next CJCS, Marine Gen Pete Pace, is a little more forceful when he testifies than is Meyers..BTW.. I hope Rummy writes a book..names names..when he retires..

I was just about to say that even the diet A&W tastes great with a scoop of ice cream in it.

He said that America is not what is wrong with the world, it't the people cutting off heads and using handicapped children as suicide bombers, that is what is wrong with the world, and he went on from there!

I know what you mean---sometimes Myers talks more like a Chaplain, than a General...

Remember how forceful Tommy Franks was....?

Oh, yuck, McCain praising the Vietnamese----time warp time!

John McLame appeared to be snoozing as Rumsfield was making his opening statements. McLame appears to have more chins than brains!

Last week when I paid bills, I put 2006 on all of them!!!

For someone my age, that is just not done. The years go by too fast as it is!

Rummy must listen to Bill Bennett's morning radio show.

Bill was talking about that 1776 book and the author's recent quote about the media yesterday and today.

Rumsfeld always proves who are the serious adults in these hearings.

Of course, that is what the left hates the most, serious adults.

I am listening to Laura Ingraham and she has on the author of that new book about Hillary....

He just told Laura that he and his wife have been "uninvited" to a couple of parties---he said one was at the home of a powerful dem....and that the wife of the politician called his wife and said that if Hillary found out that they had come to the party, that, HILLARY WOULD HAVE RUINED HIS CAREER...
