Exactly!

What is also interesting, as he's rehashing the old Dim's old talking points, including 'I visited Iraq' and saw blah, blah, blah, it appears he has been against Iraq since 2003:

Drudge: Representative Murtha Has Been Against Iraq War Since September 2003!

As reported by the Media Research Center’s Brent Baker, the network evening news broadcasts tonight all lead with Congressman John Murtha’s (D-Penn.) call for the removal of American troops from Iraq. Yet, they seemed disinterested in focusing much attention on Rep. Murtha's “denouncement” of the Iraq war more than a year ago. (Please see a May 10, 2004 CNN story stating, “Rep. John Murtha, D-Pennsylvania, in a news conference with Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, D-California, said the problems in Iraq are due to a ‘lack of planning’ by Pentagon chiefs and ‘the direction has got be changed or it is unwinnable.’") Maybe most important, the networks totally ignored the fact that Rep. Murtha has been expressing disgust with the Bush administration’s prosecution of this war since six months after it started.

AND

while he comments on soldiers/commanders he spoke w that said, blah, blah, blah, perhaps he should read this (I'm sure there are many other similar quotes from troops who are or have been in Iraq, the MSM just chooses not to print them):

"Here on the ground, our job is not done," said Col. James Brown, commander of the 56th Brigade Combat Team, when asked about Murtha's comments during a weekly briefing that American field commanders routinely give to Pentagon reporters.

Speaking from a U.S. logistics base at Balad, north of Baghdad, two days before his scheduled return to Texas, Brown said: "We have to finish the job that we began here. It's important for the security of this nation."

Me too. One thing about Tancredo, he's unafraid to get in their faces over something he believes in. Wish other GOPers had a simiar set. BTW, he wears the White House dust-up as a badge of honor in his willingness to confront them when he believes they are wrong.

Mangolians presented a couple of horses to Rummy. May they give to Bush also when he will be there later today.

Rats. Are these the NEW talking points or is Juan stuck on stupid? I was hoping for the new ones. (Maybe Juan has not had enough time to read them......)

I think you're correct - that this is a well orchestrated plan by the Democrats to roll Murtha out. And we'd better be ready for the next person or charge because the left isn't going to stop and it's started to affect public opinion. The administration needs to defend itself fiercely and it has started to do so.

I just got to the thread....and was bouncing back and forth from Rummy to Murtha...

EVERY time I turned on Murtha, he was repeating a LIE that has been spread by MOVEON.ORG...for years!! This man is a "walking cliche"....he had NO original thoughts..and was way too sappy!!!

You're right, but watch them do it anyway. The Democrats will take credit for whatever happens, and continue to blame Bush for anything that goes wrong.

Chrissy is suggesting a shake up in the WH

Yeah, shake up at the WH is starting to happen, but not where he wants but where we want. John King (CNN) & Terry Moran (ABC) already out. Both replaced by women.

So help out this humble Grandma Blogger suddenly thrust into the limelight and a little bit scared....

I heard Rush week before last say something about Soros contributing to a PAC. Can you clarify more on this?

Also, there is a way to check contributions to a candidate, yes? To keep it short, how could I find out, definitively, that my Rep (did you know Delaware is one of the few states that has MORE Senators than Representatives in the House?), got a contribution from sort of PAC? Cause this really needs to be exposed and by my Strine conversation, it's out there for me to write about.
