Wow. I’m not sure whether or not you’re lucky or cursed. ;)

Most of us on the EC have to wait until 10 or 10:30.

Yes, Webb is running for VP. He did a Bill Richardson when discussing Hillary.

I like his toupee.

But I understand the saying “beaten like a red headed stepchild” now. I didn’t before.

Webb: al-Qaida had not been in Iraq before the invasion.

Webb needs to read the Text of Joint Resolution On Iraq Passed By The United States Congress passed 296-133 by the House of Representatives and 77-23 by the Senate on October 10 and 11, 2002. Specifically,

"Whereas members of al-Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility for attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq."

Corrcction, I misremembered my Generals. I was mistaking Lt. Gen. Raymond Odierno, for former Major General John Batiste.

4 Politicans vrs Odierno? Not even a fair fight, the 4 Surrender Monkeys would be wise to not even show up for this butt kicking.

That is ugly... Levin, Dodd, Ron Paul, and Snarlin’ Arlen? It’s enough either to put you to sleep or drive you insane. The general ought to be a good listen, though. As I said with Rove, though, they’re going to be watching for anything that can be twisted into “General criticizes Bush Iraq policy.”

I don’t think Rove gave them enough material, though.

I am balding, have been for years really, and would rather be beaten with a string of wet mudcats than wear a "rug" on my head.

I prefer to think of Jim Webb as Rugman Webb.

He is a charter member of Hairclub for Men.

Actually, I think his toupee looks real unlike his demeanor which is not only false but dumb.

As the interview wore on, the studio lights began to melt his rug until the glassy glare from his poly-dome darn near blinded me!

That’s a stretch, but the WaPo’s editorial page is a bit more sane than the news pages.

Webb is running for VP.

And if you ask me, he doesn't stand a chance. I don't think either one of them will take the chance of losing that Senate seat. They're pressing hard to take John Warner's old seat already. Plus it's not like there is a dearth of Democrat VP candidates. It'll likely be either Bayh or Richardson.

ARMY “sinks” Navy

%%%%%%

Good grief! Navy did not just win, or win by a lot, but they beat Army for the sixth time in a row = and that is a new record!

I can’t wait to see the team at the White House for recognition of winning the Commander in Chief trophy.

Plus their team captain is a man to watch for future successes: Reggie Campbell.

Webb: It’s not in the interests of the US to have a large military presence in Iraq.

Senator Webb, with all due respect, pull your head out of your butt and look at a map.

How you became Secretary of the Navy under Reagan with you demonstrated lack of a clue about either military strategy or geography is a mystery to thinking people every where.

Good morning, All, from the snowy Big Apple! Just wondering about the official talking points over Madame Pantsuit's "presidential handling of the hostage crisis"...yesterday Fox & Friends' Greg Kelly teased the story by saying that Eisenberg was also the brother-in-law of Trent Lott so “he is in both camps.” Huh? Is this perhaps because a study showed that Repubs are of better mental health than Dems?

As I was fighting my way through the zillions of tourists in Midtown yesterday, all preoccupied with their shopping & shows, I thought--people all across the country are getting ready for the holidays...is anyone paying attention to the Drive-Bys' pushing of this story?

Also, take a look at these front pages…isn’t it a tad curious that there is a teeny mention in the Times???

David Gregory expounding on why Hillary’s numbers are tanking amongst women.

Jeez I can answer that. Most women know what a compassionate person looks like and Hillary is a non-starter in that area alone.

Talk about cold and lifeless, Hillary is the personification.
