Well, we'll just stay here unless we see another thread is started in the next few minutes. I'll ping you if another thread is started.

My sister (who is a democrat but loves me) has a boss who is a BIG Republican donor. The bottle was given out as a favor to donors at one of the convention dinners, and my sister gave it to me for a present. I am keeping it as part of my collection, and hopefully when I am gone it will add appreciably to my estate. LOL!

"we got bin laden... (wishful thinking)"

I like that one.

[Txsleuth]

Thanks for posting that link about Graham and McCain...two "traitors" to the cause and to the party.

[oceanview]

the court has made no ruling regarding these particular prisoners, they are not at Gitmo right now.

[roses of sharon]

Very weird, like I said, they must want the housewives to hear that we are following the law, and locking up terrorists for trial.

Doesn't sound like an election winner to me, but I am a bloodthirsty housewife, and must be in the minority in those polls.

[Txsleuth]

SURELY THAT ISN'T RIGHT...

[Minus_The_Bear]

I understand the court's ruling. That doesn't mean Bush should publicly capitulate. I was just hoping for more of a fight and maybe an appeal to congress during the stay... not just giving in.

[Toespi]

Maybe we have had Bin Laden, kept him secret and used him for bait.

[JFC]

Well when we get OBL, we might just have to open that bottle of wine and celebrate!

[Miss Marple]

I am quite bloodthirsty, too, but I recognize that there are a lot of weenie women who just don't understand war. I have a couple in my own family, although I am doing my best to get them to toughen up.

[se_ohio_young_conservative]

maybe we have him now..

[pollyannaish]

So these are not covered under that stupid ruling from a few weeks ago?

[RobFromGa]

Can you change the title of thread to add LIVE THREAD in parentheses?

[commish]

Anyone know who will be streaming this online? C-Span maybe?

[Peach]

I'll be interested to see if the networks break into their soap operas; it's my understanding the WH asked them to do that.

[Graymatter]

All right then, HVP #4, Pinch Sulzberger, to Gitmo also. Yes?

[Miss Marple]

You know, I realized that I sounded like I was trying to beat you on the amount of memorabilia, which I wasn't. My stuff (except for the wine and the Rove letter) is pretty much what any middle-class donor has. It's just that I cherish all of this stuff because this is the first president who speaks with my voice, and who has not turned out to be a phony.

If it IS OBL, I am not opening that wine. I am going out and buy a bottle of gin! LOL!

[se_ohio_young_conservative]

Is this the big news we have been waiting for...omg that would be nice.

[1066AD]

Understood but if it's just to announce regarding procedural & logistical matters .. maybe it'd be a comfort to them, I was hoping for more I guess.
