[CyberAnt]

Thanks for this info .. it's been very informative.

[STARWISE]

I believe so, too .. just documenting the slip into intelligence oblivion and chaos that has beset our so-called protective and security agencies by that and Bubba's machinations.

[cardinal4]

Once again, thanks for a great Sunday. I really enjoyed everyones posts, and as usual will come away from the thread a little more enlightened than I was yesterday. Have a good week, all!

[STARWISE]

I was referring to individual staff members but I would assume committee staff members consist of many of the same people as well.

It's all in the "Beltway Incestuary" of musical Congressional and governmental staff positions anyway. I bet they know HUGE skeletons-in-the-closet insider stuff, and use it, and I bet we don't know 1/100th of it.

[Morgan in Denver]

Agreed. I can't remember the name of the woman, but she has or had a blog exposing sexual proclivities of various congress members and staff she worked with. Truly amazing, and sick, IMHO. Still, I agree with you that we'll never know all the scandals that are tied to various people there.

[mtnwmn]

Yes, Dean confirmed that the Dems have no plan except to get rid of Bush! I about fell out of my chair when he admitted that!

Watching this politically lately it reminds me of a bad wrestling match.....and the Dems are always the ones who have to win the match with a blind shot or a chair from the audience. I love it because nobody roots for the idiot who throws the chair .....hehe reminds me of Austin Powers " honestly...who throws a shoe?"

The Dems keep doing the same thing...right when they think they have the repubs on the ropes..they can't contain themselves and they send in Dean ( the ultimate moron) and he gets so excited he throws a chair!!!

[tiredoflaundry]

Thanks! :-)

[mtnwmn]

The King put Timmy in his place quite well. I was pleasantly surprised. I particularly enjoyed the part where Abdullah said he would fire the pollster and laughed at Timmy's pronouncements.

[daviscupper]

Maybe.

[chgomac]

I thought it was an incredible link as well.
"Special award time."

Yes, definitely. Stories like that remind us what we are fighting for. Everything is relevant when we are at war and news stories have the power to move us in our attitude toward victory or toward defeat. That story was heartbreaking and makes the resolve of our soldiers to finish the job even more admirable.

My little grandson goes to school, church & play unafraid....that is what I pray the little ones in Iraq & Afghanistan will soon be able to do.....

[daviscupper]

Okay, you are right.

[Txsleuth]

LOL----I was wondering the same thing...sort of...like maybe we should look at what TYPE car is being flamed and see if there is a pattern...

[Txsleuth]

How well I know what you are talking about...and, alas, the afternoon replay of the Fox Sunday show is just now coming on...

NO TELLING what insights and revelations could spring forth from my scathingly brilliant mind...but, NOOOOOOOOO...not gonna happen.

[fedupjohn]

yikes, I feel like such a whiner. $2.56 is nice.

Here in Central Jersey I paid $1.98 a gal today and expect it to go down tomorrow another 3 cents.

[daviscupper]

Hmm...McCain correct twice a day. That is a little high. How about if you flip a coin, once in ten thousand times it will land on its side!

[snugs]

In the UK I would not think there is any analogue cable or satellite still around.

[daviscupper]

How did all those people ever become Senators? That is one of the greatest mysteries in the United States?

[Txsleuth]

Rockefeller just said that he took a trip on his OWN...and informed the heads of other countries that President Bush had ALREADY decided, SHORLY AFTER 9/11, to go to war in Iraq....

WHAT right did that man have, to go to foreign countries and spread a rumor that has never been substantiated????

Am I the only one that thinks what he did a horribly presumptuous at the best, and unethical and dangerous as well?
