Brains not worried, during a recent interview they promised him that when they come they will only kill Jews. He must have turned his head when the scumbag continued by saying "before we kill you."

[festus]

Please...... Our founding fathers were not cowards hiding behind the skirts of their women and cribs of their kids while attacking defensless civilians.

They drew up papers proper, declared their indepence, sent them over to the King and awaited the war that would ensue. When it came they made a valiant attempt at war, darn near loosing but prevailing in the end.

Shame on this vermin for suggesting any similarity. ( Isn't he a maple leaf fellow or am I confusin him with someone else ).

The second I heard it I yelled at the TV B...S.... so loud my wife ran in the room thinking something had happened. Something did...I switched the channel never to watch NBC news again.

[Sam's Army]

Jennings, Peter; of ABC is the Canuck of which you refer to.

[BJungNan]

Geeze, if I thought it would do any good to call any of the loser ABC networks..

Call the affiliate. Tell them that is the last time you watch their the national news on their channel. Their station get ad revenue during that time slot. I called.

Wright is a mullah groupie. She is gross.

Join the club. I don't watch liberal news or buy it. I get what I need to know here or listen to excerpts from talk radio. My reward is when ratings and circulation numbers come out stating X,Y, and Z are in a downward spiral. They're hurting bad and they know it.

[BJungNan]

Anyone else who might have caught this, please chime in here. There was another comment or two that was being said while I stormed out of the room to post here.

That is the way it happened. The orginal post captures it pretty well.

Williams was explaining why we should not be concerned that the new president of Iran and another government higher up was one of the students that held our hostages.

Williams said, after all, our founding fouthers were consider by some during that time to be terrrorists. He linked the founding of this country to the students in Terran that took our people hostage.

Such a comparison is assinine. There is no comparison.

[SuziQ]

After all, some certianly regarded the founding fathers as terrorists,

Who are these mythical "some", Brian?

[BJungNan]

"The first U.S. presidents were certainly revolutionaries and might have been called 'terrorists' at the time by the British crown, after all."

Give us a bit more than that from you TIVO transcript. I don't remember the British Crown part. There may be more before that.

[RightOnTheLeftCoast]

"Wright said that she thinks President Bush has every right and should check him out, because even if he had a modest role, he should NOT be leading that country, without answering for his past deeds..."

Good for Wright.

Next up: Joschka Fischer.

[festus]

Ok. Thanks. "They all look the same to me"

Huh? I don't get it. I was referring to Brian and his lying big mouthed liberal ilk.

[jimfree]

If he has something in common with the founding fathers I would suggest the fathers Che, Fidel, Vladamir and Adolph.
