You tell 'em Newt.
Yes he IS right about the Rumsfeld thing.
Pres Bush waited until the day after the election because he didn't think it was fair to inject the effect of removing Rumsfeld into the election.
Both he and his father have this "play nice" attitude that too often winds up shooting themselves in the foot.
Hastert's defending of William Jefferson, D-LA, was the straw that broke the camel's back.

..monday morning football???? ...etc. :/
Rudy has the same problem. Or does it only matter for Newt.
Newt's right. Defending Bush on this point is dumb.
Conservatives engaged in their favorite sport: the circular firing squad.
Newt!!!!
Sorry sucker. You betrayed us once. We don't give second times.

Now I remember about his divorce. His divorce records are sealed.
But Jack Ryan's were opened during his campaign.
"The couple had two daughters, Alexandra in 1973 and Vanessa in 1976, but all was not bliss in the Kerry mansions. They separated in 1982, with Thorne in the depths of a severe depression and on the brink of suicide, which she blamed on her husband's cold and distant nature, his long absences and his fierce ambition (which she was bankrolling). The separation came as Kerry was mulling a bid to run for the Senate seat vacated by Paul Tsongas in 1984; Thorne said she still associates politics 'only with anger, fear and loneliness.' In 1988, the final divorce went through. ... She later called her relationship with Kerry a 'suffocating marriage.'"
That played a part.
'...but any man who has 2 ex wives shows he is lacking in commitment and responsbility..."
Millions of irresponsible non-committers running around....
That's how I recall it. Oddly, Kerry is apparently still "friends" with her brother. Well, maybe she was as glad to get out of the marriage as he was -- by the little I've seen about her, she seems to have been a nice person.
I wonder why they won. Why were Americans so stupid not to vote for us?
I always liked him too. from wikipedia'
In 2001, President George W. Bush appointed Rogan as Undersecretary of Commerce and director of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. He left the positions in 2004 to join a law firm in Washington, DC, but later joined Preston Gates & Ellis LLP in Irvine, California.
In 2004, Rogan wrote his autobiography, titled Rough Edges: My Unlikely Road from Welfare to Washington.
In August 2006, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger appointed Rogan to serve as a judge on the Orange County Superior Court. [1]
Really? Not philandering, fat, power-happy old gasbags?
Neat. And people complain about Ahnold.
The GOP eared their losses. They strayed from their conservative principles and values. They went on a spending spree and their power went to their heads. They became the antithesis of what conservatives stand for.
You can all criticize New Gingrich - how soon you all forget that he brought the Republicans into power in Congress.
Et tu brute?
Independent voters believed that the war in Iraq was a mess and the only way to change course was to vote Dem, when Bush could have said weeks ago that he recognized things in Iraq were a mess and that he was making a change.
Thanks for the update.
