Hope it is ok to quote the exact excerpt of the 9/11 Commission Report that the 44th President of the United States relied on last night.

I don’t feel up to reading 585 pages just now.

Was that quote from Jamie Gorelik?

Bin Laden went into a lot of detail over the years on exactly what his beef with us is. Why this is suddenly a mystery is beyond me.

One specific policy: We don’t bow to Mecca.

Guess we better get approval from everyone in the world before we proceed with any policy (sarcasm).

Why Hasn’t Rudy Giuliani Read the 9-11 Commission Report?

May 16, 2007

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ARLINGTON, VA – During the “First in the South” GOP debate in South Carolina last night, one thing was made clear: Rudy Giuliani does not understand how to keep America safe.

When Congressman Ron Paul, who has long served on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, explained how 50 years of American interventionism in the Middle East has helped compromise our national security, Giuliani interrupted saying he had “never heard anything so absurd.” This statement is particularly troubling coming from the former mayor who tries to cast himself as a security expert, since Dr. Paul’s point comes directly from the bi-partisan 9-11 Commission Report.

“Rudy Giuliani has tip-toed around the issues of abortion, guns and marriage. The only issue he has left is security, and he doesn’t even get that right,” said campaign chairman Kent Snyder. “It is clear from his interruption that former Mayor Giuliani has not read the 9-11 Commission Report and has no clue on how to keep America safe.”

After watching Washington Journal this morning on CSPAN, I was surprised about the reaction to the debate last night.

I am thoroughly excited about a Ron Paul candidacy. While he won't win the nomination, he will be a huge steering factor. I honestly believe that no one still in office will be on that ticket.

Enough already of understanding the savages. Give them Spain as they keep asking for and let’s cut our losses.

Besides the Spanish cowards won’t mind being made into slaves.

Another attempt by the rats to eliminate the war on terror, and star kissing the world’s ass.

NO. We must be prepared to prevent attacks and defend ourselves when a psycho Islamist decides to practice his own “foreign policy.”

Ron Paul the Libertarian Dennis Kucinich. Very few take him seriously. Osama Bin Laden also said our withdrawal from Somalia showed America would retreat when attacked. Osama has Ron Paul pegged.

Greivance ? Grievance ? So, fly planeloads of innocent people into buildings filled with innocent people or into a field...That's how a grievance is addressed.

F*** Binny and the camel he rode in on...

Again, let us ask the world what we should do as far as our policies go. To hell with our own interests; let us please everybody else.

Probably because it does not have very nice things to say about him.
