Luntz was straightforward in his opinion that Ron Paul should participate in the debates, and he provided blunt criticism of Ronulans. Ron Paul can't lead his hooligan supporters. Meanwhile, RP is too loony or lax to care how the rest of us view his mob of ruffians.
You are a FReeper, yes indeed you can handle this!

Hmmm. It seems that Tim tries not to make eye contact with Clinton. He keeps his head down, looking at the papers on the table. He glanced at her momentarily, then looks down at the papers again.
That cobra may spit in his eye
Great to see you NN. Hope you’re feeling better each day!
What is that in Hillary’s ear?

Generalissimo Clinton will not allow General Petraus to keep 35,000 troops, will begin withdrawing troops from Iraq within 60 days.
I can’t wait to see the full transcript of her answer on Iraq.
It’s rambling, contradictory, non responsive, and...well, it sounds like twaddle.
Tim asked her about troop withdrawal. She was expecting to be asked about the legislative gains made yesterday...and she answered that instead of Tim’s question.
“The point of the surge was to QUICKLY move the Iraqi government”. When is some pubbie going to knock this one down?! The legislative reforms couldn’t happen UNTIL the surge worked...not while the violence was still going on. It’s a softball, but no pubbie seems to challenge it.
.. those of us who are sworn Pubbies should never ever consider McCain because he is not a party player,
@@@@@
That is my baseline reason as well. He did so much in Congress to throw obstacles in the way of President Bush’s beginnings that I have considered him a mean, vindictive person who puts personal pride above what is right for the party or the country.
I am reading John Ashcroft’s book about his years as Attorney General. He states that Russ Feingold was the only senator to vote against the PATRIOT Act, because he considered the act “unacceptable government intrusions.” [Never Again, p154]
And yet John McCain joined with Feingold to restrict the ability of American citizens to voice opinions during political campaigns - the reason that the First Amendment was written.
Plus, he’s psychotic.
Clinton: “I don’t like talking about myself.”
I saw that movie; "Me, Me, Me. But enough about me, let's talk about you. What do you think of me?"

Wallace plays the class envy game.
AJ Strata is a brilliant guy,one of Rush’s favs if I am not mistaken. He points out how GW always out foxes the dems and always will. He will sew up ties between our two countries, Iraq and the U.S., before the elections, insure victory and make the rats look so dumb the msm will not be able to ignore it all.
And of course there is no hope for the AP they are simply part of the problem.

Great show just ending on ESPN 2 about how GW protects the striper fishery(he just signed legislation protecting several fisheries) while he fishes with young anglers,tv people, the Fischers,aboard their yacht just getting ready to sail around the world promoting sport fishing and diving. Doesn’t get much better.
Thanks, Rod.
Putting on my tin-foil conspiracy hat, I have to wonder about Bill Clinton using the phrase "fairy tale" when speaking about Obama, and the undisclosed secret that Bob Novak said the Clinton campaign, but would not release.
Somehow, I don't think a kindergarten paper about his political ambitions was enough to make a Novak column.
Also to obfuscate the real point of what the Iraqis accomplished in the same week the Democrat leadership launches their latest "Surrender Now" PR offensive on Iraq.
The Iraqis prove the Democrat Leadership to be liars. De Batthfication was the major political bone of contention blocking political progress in Iraq. With this accomplished, the remaining 7 of the 18 Benchmarks should be easier to accomplish.
Starting to look like Petraus can come back in March and report almost all, if not all, of the benchmarks met.
Thanks for your keen observation. Will look for that when the show airs here next hour. Perhaps Timmy is keeping with Evita's 20th Century edict. Didn't Her Heinous rule that folks working in the White House were never to look her in the eyes?
