They can gather round a campfire and sing "Michael Row the Boat Ashore"
Nice of him to describe a congressional meeting with Bush about supporting our troops as a "lynching" unless the President obeys him.
What great conservatives and Republicans we have to support our President.
He can anticipate that no matter what he does, Dick.
The Congress In Chief. The Congress In Chief? Still don't sound right.
Who in his right mind would take you pompous twits seriously?
Congress doesn't make foreign policy the CIC does. They need to remember that. They are trying to take Bush's power away. Why don't they put their country first?
They are abandoning the Bush ship like a pack of Rats,but they really havent done anything to help the President for the last 6 years so thats no surprise.
***he can anticipate "a lot of hearings, a lot of study, a lot of criticism," Lugar said.***
LOL he will get plenty of that anyway.
How come we call Allen Sphincter a Republican anyway,can anyone tell me that? he is about as Republican as ted Kennedy.
History has not been too kind with war by committee. Even a committee of two is a receipe for disaster, can you imagine a Committee of 100, pompous blowhards every one?
How come we call Lugar a conservative.
This guy is one of my Senators, and I will do all I can to defeat him in the next primary.
He is on the wrong side of EVERYTHING.

Way to go, Breck Girl -- anyone who has a 'Doctrine' named after them has either been, or become President of the United States.
dick head lugar!!!
These clowns love to talk, but they are really cowards. When asked about what they would do in Iraq, they are mute or spew nonsensical platitudes designed to obfuscate any responsibility for what they do or say, so they pass the buck to someone else; they want Bush to come up with a plan so if it succeeds or fails, its his ass on the line and not theirs. That's the real courage of weak-minded morons with delusions of grandeur.
ITEM: Denver Post | December 7, 2006---"[Specter has]signaled this week that he'll join prominent Democrats in seeking to restore legal rights to hundreds of suspected terrorists confined at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and elsewhere."
ITEM: DallasBlog.com | 04/19/2006 | Tom Pauken---"Influential Republican senator Richard Lugar has urged the Bush administration to change its Iran strategy, saying the US must talk directly to Tehran about its nuclear ambitions instead of pushing for economic sanctions."
It's because of brain stems like Lugar, that the the Republicans are now the minority party, and will continue to be for quite awhile. P.S. A "Happy" and "Healthy" New Year to all!
No, FDR did not; and if you read Master of Sea Power, the then CNO / CINC of both LANTFLEET, and PACFLEET had to keep the democrat curbed to stop Roosevelt from selling the farm - which he did with Social Security.
Lugar is a fine example of an "empty suit" and one of the examples we are now in the minority.
While I strongly oppose President Bush getting weak and caving to the Democrats, I really think that the whole approach in Iraq needs a serious re-think. I must say I'm honestly not sure what should be done, but it's clear that the status quo isn't working, and we lost control of Congress largely because of this ugly war.
He is my senator too and he is anothe reason for term limits.......
