Nope.

That was a humorous exchange. We need to get a copy and keep in around just in case Richardson seriously runs for the Oval Office in 2008.

...as do most of us. However, the key is to never lose your determination to preserve your health and level of fitness, at any age. We all struggle...but in that struggle we can all achieve successes. *preach mode off*

Biden is doing a little hide and seek this week. Let's face it though motor mouth Joe is the gift that just keeps on giving! the C-spam video on Indians running 7-11's etc. is just priceless.Classic Biden coming out of hiding.

[PerConPat]

Richardson was flipflopping like a Kerry.

It's another example of the Left's impotence in foreign affairs. Richardson stated that Halfbright "almost" had a missile agreement with Kim Jong ILL . Marvelous, I almost was a lottery winner.

The Utopians will never be able to deal effectively with the realities of foreign relations- they have no understanding of human nature.

[greyfoxx39]

Tacky comment by me: Richardson sure is eating good as Governor of New Mexico.

A fello FReeper observed that he looks like a rutabaga.

[maica]

They refuse to recognize human nature, which is why they excuse and fight for the "rights" of murderers in our own courts; why they refuse in government schools to teach children to be accountable for their own actions; utopians is the exact word for them.

it's great that hollywood supports the dems...a natural fit, I'd say. You know, actors in the world of make-believe, supporting actors on the political stage...

[longtermmemmory]

PHYLIS SCHLAFLY ALERT!!!!

CSPAN2

It is about Toxic Culture etc. Pannel discussion. Just amazing speakers discussing right and wrong in society .

Watch this to increase your brain.

Good Morning all!
Thanks for the thread Alas!

I have some chores to do- will be back in a bit!

[Alas Babylon!]

One camp believes we have to give the 6 party talks a try. Another camp believes that negotiating with NK is immoral. I think it's more immoral to let them go nuclear.

I never want to rain on anyone's parade, but just for the sake of accuracy, if I read Peach's transcription on post # 44, this was said by Ashton Carter. Ashton Carter is a Clintonoid. What he is implying is that President Bush, and the republicans, would rather talk indirectly with six others, or not talk at all, and that's immoral if NK gets a nuke.

While I agree it's immoral if NK gets a nuke, that fault does NOT lie with the Bush administration (for not talking directly). It lies with fools like Carter up through Billy Jeff, who let Kim off the hook in the 90s to have just enough cash/goods for their people to continue funding their bomb works.

...they refuse in government schools to teach children to be accountable for their own actions

this is a keystone to the problems within our cultural and civic life. Fix this - and much of the problems go away.

Morning AB, All,

Watching Fox News Sunday right now and got a question.

When does the Clinton-protecting stop?

I am perfectly serious. At what point does it stop? When do the Clinton protectors stop their nonsense and take the world threats we face seriously?

Now we have that woman, Wendy somebody, out all over the place and first thing she says this morning..."It was during the Bush administration that ole Kimmie developed nuclear technology" and I ask you, serious as hell here, WHEN WILL THEY GROW UP?

If it was during the Bush admin that Kimmie got his nuclear technology, it was only via all the stuff the Clintons and Carter gave the guy! We know this out here in la-la land!

This entire country is constantly subject to the endless protections of the Clintons that Hillary may lead us with the moral superiority that her husband Bill led this nation with. Wendy makes again some reference to all the nukes Kimmie got during the Bush admin.

All to protect two of the most dishonest and disgusting people on this planet. Hey, I can understand the Clintons recruiting their puppet spin doctors. I cannot understand the total lack of pride of such people who would lie and damage their own credibility for them.

I'm done this rant but I had to get it out there.

[anita]

Thanks AB, I myself got little confused on that until your post made it clear.

[rodguy911]

The Utopians will never be able to deal effectively with the realities of foreign relations-they have no understanding of human nature.

Great quote. There are few Utopians that have misrepresented human nature more than the NYT. Here is a spoof on their take on when to publish a Nat. Security event. It's very well done and you will find it at:

Better start collecting these gems...here in NM he's made his intentions pretty clear.

[chiller]

W was vehement in his Chicago presser that he didn't want to walk into a head-on "trap" with 1 on 1 talks with N. Korea. Is he referring to the inevitable failure of such talks, and then the US is blamed solely?

[Bahbah]

Perfect analysis, Alas. The implication was that Bush is not a moral man if NK develops nuclear capability.

[KentuckianaHeadhunter]

Burns reminded me a bit of President Ford denying Soviet control of Eastern Europe while saying that the situations in Iran and North Korea are better now than in 2002.

And now this sunday's

Media Nuggets

###### A New Low for the 'Progressives'. In one of the most despicable leftist attacks ever, Deborah Frisch, psychology professor at the University of Arizona, has been threatening Jeff Goldstein(Conservative Colorodo blogger)'s 2-year old child & pays the price. Malkin's take here.

###### Where 's MSM's outrage? - It was okay for the dems (& MSM) for a judge to remove Robert Torricelli from the ballot in the fall of 2002 at the last hours so that another democrat GET ELECTED, but it is unfair for a judge to remove Tom DeLay from the ballot in even though he withdrew & shifted to Virginia 8 months before 2006 election. Looks like Delay's Bring-it-on moment.

###### Will he get an Hard-ball invite? - someone is refusing to go to Iraq, but he is an ABC Television Reporter.

###### Clinton's WH staffer Rep. Rahm Emanuel (is he related to Mike Emanuel?), equates Tom Delay with Osama bi Laden. What will MSM do if a republican did this to a dem?

###### The Baltimore Sun, Chicago Tribune, Newsday and the Los Angeles Times will CLOSE several Foreign Bureaus -> including Beirut, Lebanon, Islamabad, Pakistan, London, Beijing, South Africa and Moscow. Ssshh! ABC & NBC closed their Moscow bureau too.

###### "Look at the timing of this death. He has the financial resources and powerful friends (Bush family, etc.) to pull off a fraudulent death to escape justice. There must be an independent source allowed to verify the death of Ken Lay." - No, this is not from DU chat, but fom the Wash.Post chat.

###### Leak backlash! - Subpoenas for Cleveland papers?

###### Remember NBC's fake flood news flunked? Now, here 's a Cameraman Fined for Fake News.

###### Washington Post Pollster Richard Morin jumped to Pew Research Center. David Ensor- national security correspondent quit CNN & reportage like Ron Founier. Linda Vester not coming back to Fox & looking for radio opportunities.

###### Treasonous NYTimes.

###### BBC wants George Bush "to rot in hell" and then apologises, unlike our media. Fast losing Ratings & support like MSM here.
