Met John Ashcroft several months ago. Thought the same thing about him too...a very nice man swimming with sharks.
Well, that puts you in company with Juan Williams, who believes the same thing.
If you have any spare time after finishing, I've a room or two that needs a once-over. And then there is the laundry.
Durbin is neither man nor civil enough to apologize. I'm trying to think of who it was in the mid-80's who made a major blunder (southern white Republican as I recall, maybe Thurmond?) who eventually apologized, saying something like "I don't make mistakes often but when I do it's a doozie !" Durbin doesn't have the guts to ever apologize like that.
Too bad the left in general and Kennedy in particular, went after Ashcroft in such a personal way.
I have tremendous respect for him.
Just seen him on MTP he sort of apologised but it was so round about the houses and full of excuses of why he said it it smacked of only saying the words because of the fall out after he made his original comments.
I also could not believe when he said that the SC changes the law IMHO he believed what he said.
I'll give Gonzales the benefit of the doubt for now, and hope we are just witnessing persistent stage fright.
The reporters got in, our colleague Glenn Kessler reports from the scene, but were warned not to ask the president any questions. Mitchell popped one anyway. The thugs grabbed her shoulder and tried to drag her away, infuriating Rice and winning Mitchell oodles of publicity. As it happens, her book -- "Talking Back . . . to Presidents, Dictators, and Assorted Scoundrels" -- is being published soon.
$$$$$
I guess she believes the title of her book is "a good thing."
Good manners in a foreign country is not very high on her list of appropriate actions.
And I doubt I'll be buying her book any time soon.
Thank you for posting this. It always gives me a chill and tears in eyes.
May God bless them all and keep them safe.
It is not possible to thank them enough.
LOL.
I already call myself the chambermaid without the tips.
Off to do another room...
Her outer beauty is offset by her left-wing views as evidenced by letting her bias through when doing interviews.
In a town of supersized egos, this deferral to the SC tells me how impotent the dems really feel.
Howie's probably a regular poster on many of them. I wonder what is screen name is over at DU?
As long as you didn't get into a substantive discussion of politics, President Bush, the Iraq War, the Supreme Court, etc. Unless of course you like long arguments with unenlightened far-left liberals.
I'm not advocating "raising hell". I just watched Sen. Leahy say the WH lawyers don't work for the president, "they work for all of us, the American taxpayers".
That's how far the Dems will go to confuse the public (aka: lie) and Republicans are going to have to answer it. Civic education takes time and repetition. We are in danger of the Dems cementing the idea in the public's mind that the president's lawyer should be expected to reveal all his working papers.
It's pay back time!
