Because the president offered a multi-faceted case for the need to liberate Iraq means he's somehow changing his story?? Could it be there was and continues to be more than just one reason for ending his regime??

I will never forget Alan Colmes, before we went to Iraq, pounding his little fist on his desk as he said something to the effect of: Is it WMD? Is it that we want to liberate the Iraqis? Is it to stop the torture chambers? Is it to bring democracy to the Middle East? Which is it? Make up your minds!

I remember screaming at the TV, "It's all of the above, you moron!"

After the media took the no WMD's line out of context of Kay's report, Colmes claimed the only pre-war reason given was WMD and now the conservatives are changing their stories.

Some conservatives say they like Alan Colmes because he's nice, and that's their right, but he's a slimy liar, and what's worse, his lies hurt the U.S.

Disgrace is right...their only redemption would be...if they truly were a front for the CIA (As Saddam accused them of being pre Operation Iraqi Freedom) and the blatant Anti-Americanism of their International unit was merely a cover...but...I doubt it.

I'm just glad the POTUS is getting his hits in these days Energy Bill, Bolton Nomination...can't accuse him of being lame in this term given that he's only been in it 8 months.(I know that fanatical immigration people would disagree, but they should be patient.)

Thanks for your efforts.

Cindy Sheehan is the Democrat's equivalent of a suicide bomber. In its simplest terms, she was brainwashed into strapping on a belt, getting out in front of the media...and blowing her credibility to shreds, hopefully spraying a little blood on the President.

All this for the greater glory of the left.

Even if she volunteered, that they would take advantage of a grief-stricken woman in this way is simply despicable.

Just like Nick Berg's dad, this is a person who hates our president more than the murdering bastards who killed their son.

This woman is neither poor, nor a lady. She sells herself for monetary and political gain. If one sells one's self, what does that make one?

It was Kristinn who called Drudge last night and told him about the article and her own web page that had the descriptions of the photos (the photos were removed)with her and the president.

I hate to criticize the woman. She's in deep pain, obviously. And, yes, she's going a bit nuts and blaming President Bush. This is politically unfair and also treasoness in some respects. On the other hand, if my son were killed like that, it might just blow my mind, too. Attack her politics but, not her personally.

She is more like an auto-tron....just wind her up and she will spew out nasty comments about our President and the Armed Forces. Someone needs to tell her to put a cork in it and STFU. I'm sick of these damned idiots spouting out lies on CNN and the NYT, and it is time for them to put up or shut up!!

"When will these people emerge from the pre-9-11 world they're stuck in where Saddam Hussein was to their way of thinking a great addition to the world community and where we didn't need to act to end the sources of instability and chaos in the Middle East that breed terrorism??"

When thier kids are dead...here on US soil...regularly...and, by that same token, when it is too late.

Here's a link to the article referenced above. It, in turn, contains a link to the original story.

This story does, indeed, have legs.

Thanks for your great effort. I agree CNN is a disgrace, and while I sympathize with Cindy Sheehan for her loss, I find her actions disgraceful. Her hypocrisy regarding the President reveals much about her that is not admirable. She is certainly not honoring her sons' memory or what he obviously believed in. It is a VOLUNTEER army, and I read that he did not have to go on the mission in which he was killed, but he wanted to go. Her son was a hero, but it's a shame his mother is using his death to promote her own political ideology. If she wanted to honor her son, she could find a more honorable way to do so. Unfortunately, she doesn't seem to care that she's being dishonest and dishonorable.

Is Cindy Sheehan on Moveon.org's payroll?

Alan Colmes IS a slimey liar. And he has a lizard tongue. We have to 'mute' him to be able to stomach H&C.
