Ex-president Bill Clinton predicts the U.S. will lose the war on terror, saying "the odds are not great of our prevailing." In an interview with the Ladies Home Journal due out next month, Clinton calls the war "a quagmire" and warns "we're only making them angrier by opposing them. If we submit we'll have peace. That's what the Quran promises. I say we take them up on it. Besides, that 72-virgin idea has merit."
Clinton spokesman Jay Carson immediately sought to tone down the ex-president's defeatist remarks, telling the New York Daily News: "President Clinton has always been a fun-loving kind of guy. People need to understand that when he says we should submit to Islamic terrorists he's just kidding. He doesn't mean to undermine our war effort."

Clinton WOULD lose it. Too busy selling out to the Chi-Coms

Worth going to the site for an amusing read. I liked this little nugget, too:
Capito Won't Challenge Byrd
West Virginia GOP Rep. Shelley Moore Capito announced she will not challenge U.S. Sen. Robert C. Byrd for his seat in 2006.
Capito said, "A group of gentlemen, at least I assume they were gentlemen, they were wearing hoods during our conversation, has persuaded me that it would not be in my best interests to challenge Senator Byrd."
To emphasize her seriousness in declining to run, Capito brandished a noose the men had left with her, saying it was one of their most potent arguments.
That reminds me of the story told about Alexander, and his general, Parmenio. The Emperor of Persia offered to give Alexander part of his empire if Alexander would cease his rampage. Parmenio advised Alexander that "if I were you, I'd take the offer". Alexander replied that were he Parmenio, he'd take it, too.
ROTF........good one!
