Plugs Biden appearing on a Sunday morning talk show. Will wonders never cease?
What are the Vegas odds for Biden appearing Christmas Day on one or more of the shows?
Good morning everyone, and thanks AB, as usual.

Where is Lieberman????
Notice how ABC is giving Duckworth a platform -- since she just announced she is running for congress. ABC is oh so transparent! LOL
Murtha again? Is he going to become another Sunday Show fixture?
Thank you for this thread every Sunday.
The Vice President is making a surprise visit to Iraq and James Rosen of FNC is reporting now.
I'm virtually certain that Hillary will take credit; in her meeting with the VP last week she suggested he go to Iraq and her suggestion was met with a stare.
Russert, Steffy, Shiefer, Blitzer are all used to pull up Time or Newsweek and demand answers from guests. Would ANY of them dare to pull this current National Review (intelligent, truthfull, topical) at ANY of the democrats and ask for their reaction when the dems are looking for a face transplant for Dean and/or themselves?
I do hope posters will post information on Tammy Duckworth. She's a Democrat running for Henry Hydes IL seat, and a current darling of the left. Without question, her Iraqi war credentials are going to be used by Democrats to claim they support the troops.
AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH
See post #12.
"My son told us, to our faces, 'I won't vote for Mr. Bush, but I'll take a bullet for him,' " Donald McGlothlin said in an interview Wednesday.
He won an Army ROTC scholarship for his last three years of college, but it was withdrawn after recruiters learned he had had a respiratory illness as a child. His mother said McGlothlin then worked even harder, training his muscles and his mind, to convince the military that he was healthy.
.......... after arriving in Iraq, Ryan McGlothlin became convinced that the fight had to be won there. In a letter he wrote five days before his death — and received by his family after his funeral — he outlined his views.
"I know this war is not the most popular one back home, but people must understand that to pull out before the Iraqi army is fully ready to assume responsibility for the security of their own country is not only irresponsible of us but would ensure the persistence of terrorism," Ryan wrote. "If you walk through these cities and see how terrified the Iraqi citizens are of the terrorists and how thankful they are that we finally came to their cities, you could not possibly consider doing this job incompletely."
Like his own father, a legislator in Virginia for 22 years, Donald McGlothlin is a Democrat. But he believes that what Bush says about staying the course in Iraq "is what we need to do."
"Nobody knows the pain a family has to go through to lose a child to this war," Donald McGlothlin said. "I would do anything to have been spared this. But I don't want the gifts that these men and women are making to the Iraqi people to go for naught."
Ryan McGlothlin was buried in Lebanon, posthumously promoted to first lieutenant and awarded the Purple Heart. At the time of his death, Bush said Wednesday, "in his pocket was a poem that Ryan had read at his high school graduation, and it represented the spirit of this fine Marine. The poem was called 'Don't Quit.
GOD BLESS OUR SOLDIERS
She's been recruited by Rahm Emmanuel to run for Henry Hyde's seat.
She wants universal heath care, better education and better jobs.
Sounds like the typical DEM agenda.
Yeah, I did. The Democrats will "use" her as they did with Max Cleland. Only, this time the wounds were not self inflicted. It's just SO transparent. Poor Tammy.
That Phillips character on F&F just said that Hillary Clinton was the one who advised Cheney to go to Iraq. What a jerk he is.
Good morning, OldFriend!
Tammy Duckworth is proof there are Democrats in the military. But, also proof Democrats will abuse their own side in attempts to score political points.
