Wallace keeps repeating Murtha's quote to "pull troops out of Iraq", but somehow fails to mention how he voted on Friday.
Wallace is the reason I won't watch FNS again.
To: mlc9852
No doubt. Doing dishes (which I HATE doing) is so much more constructive than listening to Murtha's BS. It's all so predictable.

Well I was wrong on two counts re: Timmy and Murtha. Timmy did confront him with his former statement 180 degrees off of where he is now and they did NOT try to pretend that Murtha didn't mean IMMEDIATE withdrawal--at least not in the interview section of the show.
Murtha said that the military leadership in Iraq told him things were going well, but that he, Murtha, knows what they really think...
Timmy did let him lie on and on about there being no progress in Iraq and even helped heap it on with the crap about only 750 Iraqis actually ready to fight on their own.

Great take fishtalk.
Immediately you took the rats best argument away from them. The proposal was phrased like Murtha stated,the rats will try and spin it but you nailed em'.
I thought the run-up to the vote was as spectacular as the vote.

No offense to Hastert, but the vote would not have happened without JD Haywroth. JD was the one who brought it up and there was so much support that Hastert probably had no choice in the matter. Hastert has not been as strong in areas like this in the past.

Ford or simply JR as he is known here, can't be seen as anti-war in his run for senate in conservative Tennessee.

"Interesting how only three socialists/commies in the house had the guts to vote down freedom for Iraq."
I found that interesting, too. I was especially surprised when Bagdad Jim McDermott, one of the biggest socialist/commies in the house (wish voters in Seattle would wake up and vote someone else in) only had the backbone to vote 'present'.

What is the point of this hysterical analysis of the Avian Flu on MTP? How will this be twisted to a Bush's fault scenario? Otherwise, what is the point.

RAT watching is better than bird watching. The movements of the RATS belie an increasing effort to put their party back together again.
The real political schism is not pro or antiwar but pro or antiwar in the RAT party. They are terrified and they need to do everything possible to make sure Iraq is a losing proposition. Unless they can, no sane person is going to trust them with national defense again.
The same thing happened during Viet Nam. Everyone forgets but Nixon pulled the combat troops out in '71 and then went on to a blow out victory. Only Watergate stopped the Pubbies from going on to victory after victory.
The RATS want a defeat. You can see it in the way Stephanopolous interviewed Rummy. The whole idea was to make Rummy say something that could be construed as "we lost."
Pathetic cowards all including odious Odom.
To: Alas Babylon!
George Will: "We are conducting an imperial foreign policy...This is what an empire looks like...".
He was referring to the projections of power all over the world, an implicit comparison to the British empire.
He has a point if it's not too paleo to say so.

Morning to you Morgan the fix-it man.
We need that all important photo of Juan and Ce Ce strapped into the crash vehicle and ready top crash head-on into the nearest wall with their latest DNC stalking points.(or I will settle for a Brit Hume/Juan smackdown)

Wallace is 2nd tier.
The vote Friday sure has the Dems in a jam. A lot of their base is wondering why exactly their reps didn't vote for immediate withdrawal.
This tactic was a smooth one for JD Hayworth. The democrats just couldn't hitch thier wagon to Murtha, but the looneys aren't going to accept that as an excuse, when the Dems have been screaming for withdrawal for the last two months.

Just damn! Visiting Idaho and turned on the TV and get FNS an hour earlier than am used to. Biden on FNS, missed Rumsfeld. With Murtha now on the fringe, Biden sounds halfway sensible. What they are doing now is trying to position themselves for 2006 by appearing as mainstream "moderates". Wallace trying to educate Biden on "imminent" threat, Biden says Bush did use the term.

Kiran mentioned Harold Ford had been invited opposite Gingrey, but did not show. They had even jiggled their schedule around to allow him to be on the program. Julian stated that he would not comment.
Gingrey said Murtha's comments about immediate withdrawal of troops was like 'putting lipstick on a pig'.

I watched about 2 minutes of Murtha and couldn't take it. I did watch the whole thing. Russert prefaced the interview with earlier statements from Murtha about how wrong it would be to leave prematurely. Murtha just used a lot of the sound bites he used in the debate the other night. What he failed to do was to adequately explain his transition to cut and run.
But I don't see him as suffering from any kind of dementia. I see this whole thing as a well orchestrated Democrat plan to take credit for any troop reduction that will almost surely take place after the election in December. Now the Democrats are on record in both houses to use a withdrawal in 2006 to benefit them in the congressional election next year. Murtha is simply their front man.
To: Fishtalk
Biden is LYING...claiming the Vice President said Sadaam was an "Imminent Threat". Imminent was NEVER said by administration...it was Jay Rockefeller who used these words. Lier and Plagiarizer
To: Seattle Conservative
Murtha is stating the obvious. We could very well have fewer troops in Iraq by election time. It's planned anyway, IMHO.
To: George W. Bush
Will: "This is nation-building and...conservatives cannot believe in that!
Will's going more paleo...
To: Bahbah
They feel important thinking they can scare everybody I guess. And the MSM will probably be very disappointed if half the planet isn't wiped out by the bird flu.
