And yet Robert KKK Byrd and Jimmah Carter live on and on and on....
Bob Woodward once again worries about the troops...he says they aren't happy and want a new direction.
Oh, now he is saying that the troops leave Iraq, after the reporter in Iraq said that the Iraqis feel that we need to stay.
NOW, he is saying we can't pull out, or set a timetable.
pffffffffffft
I swear...I think the whole bunch in D.C. is half crocked from going to so many cocktail parties w/each other and hearing the same shallow remarks from people who fancy themselves in-the-know...a bunch of high level gossips imo.
Thanks Carolina. Got that suggestion in some great Freepmails, plus a goody from McGavin about something to take with antibiotics when the sight of yogurt makes you gag. I ordered the regular Sambucol and should get it Tuesday or Wednesday. Don't really care at this point as long as I have it on hand if anything else attacks me. Thank you so much. I really came on here as a distraction with no intention of sobbing in Freeper laps, but am glad I did as I got great suggestions. b.
Apparently ...
Hmmmm isn't there a new movie out about RFK??
Glad we could help, for we are FAM-I-LY. 8)
So the secret service in the US was bugging and listening in on Princess Diana's phone calls right before she died?
Ummm ... Didn't she die during the Clinton Administration??
Anita, I didn't know this particular detail: "President specially asked Rumsfeld to preside over this meeting." Thanks for calling it to our attention. That one simple sentence gives the total lie to all those who have claimed that Don Rumsfeld was fired.
He had been wanting to retire for at least the past couple of years. Given his age, the fact that he was comfortable and doing very well in the private sector, and the fact that he already had been SecDef years before, it was almost a miracle he even agreed to take the job in Jan. 2001, let alone stay this long.
His resigning the day after the election might have been seen by some as abrupt, but it wasn't. And anyone who has been paying attention these last six years knows there is a very special, truly unique bond between GWB and Rummy. Mark my words...next year GWB will be awarding the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Don Rumsfeld.
It's anyone BUT... those elected by the people. We saw it with the 9/11 Omission and the ISG... elected officials hesitating/declining to lead... and commissions and courts stepping in to fill the void.
This is how we will lose our voice... and our Republic.
How I wish your post could be at the top of every thread on FR.
If 3000 military casualties in 4 years in achieving a military objective is unacceptable loss of life, then we have ceased to be a great nation. Personally, I'm tired of hearing about the military being "in harm's way", as if they were little children walking across the street without holding their mommies' hands. They're warriors, for goodness sake! Harm is their business.
So Harmon thinks we should bomb Baghdad from the air. Kill people on a civilian train, cluster bomb the main thoroughfare, cut off the water supply, the heating oil supply, fill the Tigris with rubble, ala Serbia as perpetrated by Weasley Clark?
He's too moderate for their likening, IMO
Neville Baker's Peace Plan makes Vietnam look like a Victory.
Pray for W and Our Troops
Don't ya just love those bleeding heart liberals and how they change their tune now that the election is over ??
I might understand the CIA listening in .. but the Secret Service???
If the only objective of the ISD was to unite and mobilize people on the right, they hit a d*** home run.
&&&&&
LOL!
But seriesly, the grandpas are not that smart. Nice unintended consequence, though.
