Look, the Comsymplibs would have voted for anyone running as a Democrat. The election was controlled by the otherwise small cadre of unreconstructed Confederate sympathizers and more modern-day Ku Klux Klan types who are easily attracted to what they perceive to be their fascist saviour.

The only way we can overcome these pukes in Virginia is for Republican voters to vote.

If they don't the scum is always going to rise to the top.

He has a son who's served in Iraq. So do I.

And I want to say how pleased I am at the unprecedented low casualties in this war. As a percentage of the population, the American lives lost in this war are 1/300th of our losses in WWII. At this rate, we could fight for 10 centuries and our losses would still be lower.

No American wants a single soldier to die in Iraq, but some things must be done, and it would be helpful if the Dems would get a grip on reality.

Gosh, where to start? I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer but...

"We are looking for affirmative solutions that will strengthen our nation by freeing us from our dependence on foreign oil"

Drill at home? Clean coal? Stop obstructing the President at every turn to achieve that goal?

Many, including myself, warned even before the war began that it was unnecessary"

With sanctions collapsing and gutted, our allies trading with saddam and he training jhadis to attack us, what other course was available?

"a formula that will in short order allow our combat forces to leave Iraq."

Negotiate with the enemies we are fighting and then run away.

"And as soon as he became President, he brought the Korean War to an end."

And now nk starves it's people by the millions, has sold nuclear weapons and missle technology to our enemies and threatens to nuke the US, well that war ended well, didn't it.

so basically... same old message.

Bush sucks, all of his idea suck, they hope it doesn't fail even though it probably will, and they have no suggestions of their own.

Were we living in a more civil, more decent and thoughtful society, Webb and his ilk would be hauled out in the street for tar & feathering.

and addressing such domestic priorities as restoring the vitality of New Orleans.

What "vitality of New Orleans"? Will he supply free whiskey and condoms? Did N.O. possess some national security value I wasn't aware of?

"Where is his evidence for this charge about our military? It seems to be a statement that is simply made up"

Every time I hear this man, see him, or read about him, I can't help but think of his sick, smutty writings .... and that the people of his state still elected him to represent them. It's frightening, indeed!

But does that include the cost of all fringe benefits or are was the number of CEOs much larger for example consolidation in the banking industry has dropped the number of true CEOs.

I guess what I'm getting at is I don't think it is any where near an apples to apples comparison.

Professional pacifists should be regarded as traitors to the great cause of justice and humanity.

Webb was elected thanks to the votes of the 50,000 foreign born Muslim terrorist sympathizers now living in Northern Virginia. He's delivering for them. Big Time.

You're the guy who said the Libs in Northern Virginia put Webb in. Yet, they are readily outvoted by Republicans in many statewide elections, so they didn't do it by themselves.

They needed help. Unreconstructed types gave it to them because they were attracted to Webb's antisemitism and fascism.

Guess I hit close to home eh?!

I can't concentrate on the address, because Pelosi is blinking so much. She must have blinked 8,000 times already!

Hmmm ~ 50,000?

You're off by a factor of 3 of course, but nevermind. The overwhelming majority of them are not citizens nor do they vote.

The Dems and their running dog lackeys known as fascist sympathizers did the job.

We Republicans must make sure the fascists don't vote and the Dems are drunk at home on election day.
