An Israeli soldier scouts the area near the Israel-Lebanon border, July 20, 2006.

Good for YOU!

Sounds about right. Can't remember when the president made the recess appointment, but he renominated Bolton at the same time. The way I understand it goes to committee for another vote, which with V's vote it will receive a positive recommendation to the full Senate.

[JustaCowgirl]

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, a Nevada Democrat, also said he would oppose Bolton, saying, ‘If I were the coach I would cut him from the team.’"

And if we were the team, we'd give you a wedgie and throw you in the dirty laundry, Harry

[Txsleuth]

LOL..I think it was Laura Ingraham that played those soundbites this morning..pretty funny!

FoxNews satellite must be under attack.

Am getting allot of static on it. None of the other cable channels seem affected.

[Miztiki]

Fox news just disappeared from my satellite tv (DirecTv). Anyone else having this problem?

[Txsleuth]

You have every right to be upset...and I too, hope Rich posts it.

But, it IS a dem we are talking about here..and it was his secretary, which means "plausible deniability"...unfortunately.

If you ask me, that statement by Biden's aide was simply the usual democrat anti-Jewish sentiment. Note how they attempt to make the caller "un-American." Despicable.

It's only a matter of time until they attack the Vatican, and when Catholic callers complain they will also be called anti-American.

I really have a hard time tolerating Rats.

[rhombus]

Yeah getting static too. Maybe it's just the weekend people taking over. ;-)

[Mo1]

Shep is on

[TomGuy]

FoxNews

Shep: Weekend forecast coming up. [Under his breath] At least you'll get one.


[Guess Shep may have to work this weekend. lol.]

When I can wrench the remote control out of my 16 month old granddaugher's sticky little hands..you can count on ME!

[prairiebreeze]

His response, so I guess you being Jewish is more important than you being an American.

What impertinece. I hope you reminded the little twit that since you as a taxpayer are supporting him financially and his JOB is to write down and relay your opinions he'd best STHU and do his JOB!

sheesh!

[Diddle E. Squat]

Bob Baer has been going around implying to conspiracy kooks that some or all of the top level of gov't knew about 9/11 but let it occur so as to gain politically.

[MarineMom613]

i HAVE DirectTV in my office and it went out this AM and just a few minutes ago. Back on now.!

[Miss Marple]

I don't believe a darn thing Baer says anymore. As far as I am concerned, he is in that State/CIA anti-Bush cabal along with Wilson, Ritter, Albright and the rest.

[Txsleuth]

okay...my head is spinning now!! LOL

Seriesly, thanks for the information.

[JustaCowgirl]

So many things would be much better now if we'd had Bush-Cheney-Bolton types of kick-ass throughout the '90s.

That is so true.

I don't know how Fox News gets their signal to DirectTV, but there are bad thunderstorms in the NYC area right now, as there were this morning. I know that thunderstorms usually interfere with home DirectTV systems (but am not sure whether they should hurt a network's outgoing signal - you think they'd be stronger than that).
