Dont' be -- it was funny! LOL!!!!

I believe before the Iraqi elections, scheduled for mid December, the Iraqi people and the emerging government must be put on notice that the United States will immediately redeploy. All of Iraq must know that Iraq is free. Free from United States occupation. I believe this will send a signal to the Sunnis to join the political process for the good of a free Iraq.

My plan calls:

To immediately redeploy U.S. troops consistent with the safety of U.S. forces.
To create a quick reaction force in the region.
To create an over- the- horizon presence of Marines.
To diplomatically pursue security and stability in Iraq

[StarCMC]

Hey Big Dog!! *HUGS!*

[joebuck]

Carolyn, you and I both know that the reason most of the women on this forum aren't in Congress is because we'd be under arrest within 20 minutes and drug off the floor by the Sergent at Arms for NOT keeping our mouths shut.

:-)

[You Dirty Rats]

I caught this Schmit lady from OH talk during the press conf. last night and liked what she had to say. After see what she just did on the floor I REALLY LIKE HER NOW!!!!!!!

I was blasted on FR for daring to vote for her in the primary -- was told she was a RINO. Fortunately, I don't pay any attention to that nonsense.

[antceecee]

looks like this clip is from yesterday....

[SeaBiscuit]

I've been sick too, with strep throat for two weeks. But I wouldn't miss this for anything.

BTW, anyone know if anything like this has ever happened while the President has been out of the country?

[mware]

Could you picture Howlin backing down if they wanted to censure her?????

I don't know but I sure want the cameras rolling when they try.

[Howlin]

Shhh.......don't turn me in; we're under water restrictions.........LOL.

[winodog]

Actually its mostly your name calling that made me say that. You and a few others can call people names without being called on it.

[Mo1]

So you mean that all the ones who are saying that they didn't see the same intelligence because it was withheld and manipulated never saw any period??

YEP ... because THEY REFUSED to carry their sorry butts over to the secured room to see them

You know ... this is starting to ring a bell

I remember the Dems didn't something of a boycott at one of the Intel Close Door meetings before they voted on the war

[goldstategop]

The Democrats had access to the same Intel the President and the rest of the world did and it bears reminder they offered 22 reasons to go to war to oust Saddam Hussein's regime from power - not just to search for WMD. How conveniently politicians elide the truth from national memory. This must NOT be allowed to stand.

[Republican Wildcat]

This is a rerun of his remarks from yesterday.

[Peach]

Good luck. A word of advice in the negotiating -- don't let a few hundred dollars mess up the deal. In the grand scheme of things, it's nothing when mortgaged over 30 years.

You've been busy today.

Did you hear that Harry Reid admitted that he didn't read the pre war intelligence report prepared by the CIA specifically at the request of the Democrats?

Rockefeller admits only 6 Senators read the report.

So they complain the intelligence was manipulated but they didn't read the intelligence?

Hello? Is ANYONE home in the RNC these days?

[Feiny]

Les: It's a helicopter, and it's coming this way. It's flying something behind it, I can't quite make it out, it's a large banner and it says, uh - Happy... Thaaaaanksss... giving! ... From... W.... ... K... ... R... ... P!!

Les: No parachutes yet. Can't be skydivers... I can't tell just yet what they are, but - Oh my God, Johnny, they're turkeys!! Johnny, can you get this? Oh, they're plunging to the earth right in front of our eyes! One just went through the windshield of a parked car! Oh, the humanity! The turkeys are hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement! Not since the Hindenberg tragedy has there been anything like this!

Johnny: Les? Are you there? Les isn't there. (composing himself) Thanks for that on-the-spot report, Les, and for those of you who just tuned in, the Pinedale Shopping Mall has just been bombed with live turkeys. Film at eleven.


Venus: Les! Are you okay?

Les: I don't know. A man and his two children tried to kill me. After the turkeys hit the pavement, the crowd kind of scattered, but some of them tried to attack me! I had to jam myself into a phone booth! Then Mr Carlson had the helicopter land in the middle of the parking lot. I guess he thought he could save the day by turning the rest of the turkeys loose. It gets pretty strange after that.

Andy: Les, c'mon now, tell us the rest.

Les: I really don't know how to describe it. It was like the turkeys mounted a counterattack! It was almost as if they were ...organized!!

Mr Carlson: As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.
