Bob Beckel Threatens Rumsfeld With Violence
Monday, September 4, 2006 | Kristinn

Posted on 09/04/2006 7:40:00 AM PDT by kristinn

Democrat Bob Beckel threatened Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld with violence today in a discussion on the Fox News Channel about Rumsfeld's speech last week relating the war on terror to World War 2.

Beckel said if Rumsfeld weren't Secretary of Defense and had federal protection, he'd "kick the dog out of him."

Beckel joined a growing number of Democrats who have reacted viscerally to Rumsfeld's remarks, even though Rumsfeld did not single out the Democratic party nor did he name any current Democrats as appeasers.

Actually, he found a two-bit prostitute.

That's what's alarming about all of this. Beckel is one of the more stable Dem spokesmen.

Really? Have never thought that about old smirky Beckel.

He smirks and purses his lips like a skunk eating $$it.

Bob has probably gotten in trouble with the DNC for being too "moderate"...so he took his shot..LOL

Personally, I LOVE what he said...because it means that Rummy's speech has hit them where it hurts, their conscience...they KNOW they are being unpatriotic..and cowards..but they want the power MORE!

I totally agree with the conscience part .. but Rummy wasn't talking so much as about them being unpatriotic as he was about them being naive, stupid, clueless and ignoring history

Rummy mentioned appeasement during WWII for a reason .. because much of what was said and done then by Chamberlain and his groupies is being said and done now by the democrats

Once they have been called out as the wimps and cowards they are, they immediately puff up and start acting as if they are really tough guys.

Exactly. Here is a picture of Beckel in full "puffer" mode.

Oh...I KNOW what Rummy was saying...please don't think that I am as ignorant as the dems...and mistaking Rummy's speech being about THEM...rather than the danger WE as a country face, if we don't look to history...and change our approach ...

I KNOW that Mo1....but, the overreaction by the dems shows their either EXTREME ignorance..or their EXTREME lust for power...because their reaction to his speech, plus their equally emotional reaction to the "explanation" by the Pentagon...is downright SCARY.

IF the Bob Beckel's of the "cause" react this way...then hopefull the GOP will dig in more to take Rummy's lead to not only explain what Rummy meant, but FOR ONCE, stand UP for President Bush and Rummy and the security of our country..

I pray that you didn't get the impression that I am as delusional as they are...yikes!! LOL

I'd think that Bob Beckel would have a hard time in a fistfight, what with this week's hooker J-B Welded to his groin...

To answer your question: I don't know.

My wife, who is far more liberal than me (I'm to the right of Attila the Hun, she just makes it past the 1964 Barry Goldwater) hates his guts.

Yeah, I saw Tammy Bruce take-on Beckel. She was pretty tough on the guy.

Mr. Beckel's reaction to Rumsfeld's words says it all:

Keep it up. Mr. Secretary of Defense. You have the Democrats running into their malicious caves.

Is this the same guy who set up a website to advise the year 2000 electors to be faithless and vote for Gore even if they were sent to vote for Bush?

Yes - I'm answering myself. He was calling the electors and providing information packets to have them change their minds and vote faithlessly.

No problem. It pays to keep in mind what our opponents have done so that we don't trust them when they try to sound reasonable.

Love you screen name, by the way. I have 4 dogs and 3 cats. Although actually they belong to my wife. I just pay the bills and play with them some. :)
