I do not recall voting for Dasshole, so why do I have to keep hearing of him trying to run this country. Thanks to "Jumping Jim" I cannot get away from his socialist @%$#.

Not this year sorry. But his Rat sidekick Tim Johnson is and we've got John Thune running against him.

Clumsy Tom Daschle Anecdote Collection

Thought you might like a chance to add to a collection that demonstrates ineptness on Daschle's part. Click on the above.

Um, it's okay for us to endure years of being called "The Great Satan", but one retaliatory remark from us means that we're out of line? Someone please explain to Mr. Daschle that we've had enough and we're not going to take it anymore! As I've said before, even the friendliest dog in the world will eventually bite if you keep poking him with a stick long enough! Personally, I'm sick of getting poked!

Yes, I agree. I think that the administration has played this entire thing very well. When President Bush said "we're goin' ta smoke 'em out."(nice cowboy lingo there) I think he realised that all our enemies would be hiding behind various postures and world opinion. It's like the old cowboy trick of sticking the hat on the stick and letting it get shot to have the enemy reveal its position. Very good Tom, you have just revealed your position. It's all a part of the strategery, I think.

I think that contrary to talking head/media/world opinion, this phrase(axis of evil) was quite deliberate and intentional. Let's see who is shooting and from where. Bush likes to play the "see how stupid I am game," and while everyone does the predictable thing, he quietly runs the table. I think everyone, including Daschle is getting hustled.

regards

I have to agree that President Bush was wrong with this comment. The axis of Evil is: Iran, Iraq, North Korea, and Tom Daschle! President Bush just forgot one of the parties involved.

"... the first major criticism from a leading Democrat about the war on terror."

'Tom-tom' being beaten again. An obstructionist is NOT a leader. While everything is backed up behind him, he's like the broken float in a parade, not moving and a momentary center of attention, soon to be swept aside.

"Say goodnight, Tom" "Goodnight, Tom."(With apologies to the Smothers Brothers)

Fine, now the Republicans can run against the Democrats on the Axis of Evil issue. On the one side you have Daschle, France, Iraq, Iran, and North Korea, ... need I say more ?

All I can think is that Daschle's major contributors are threatening to cut off money to him and his affiliated Democratic Senate campaign pacs if he doesn't denounce the Bush 'axis of evil' talk.

It makes no political sense otherwise, as it reinforces the weak on national security image Democrats have had since Vietnam. This is not an image Democrats want to have for their party in 2002. Especially since there will be military operations against the axis of evil in the run up and during that election.

"Bush should do the right thing and ammend his statement, he should add Daschle to that axis of evil list."

Tom, "You are either with us, or against us."

What is 'evil' to you, Tom--besides conservative Republicans?

Beady eyed Daschle relly thinks he is president, he has a hold on the contols and Bush is too timid or sold on democraps that he will not take hard action against the beady eyed monster.

"What does Daschle need an atomic bomb to drop on his head to make the case???"

That would be nice.

Behold...a glimpse of what al gore would've done as president to fight terrorism (and I use term 'done' loosely).

"Thanks to "Jumping Jim" I cannot get away from his socialist @%$#."

"The end justifies the means." Socialists/communists/progressives will call themselves anything, if need be, to promote the AGENDA. They call themselves 'pro-choice', but what choice do they advocate? They call themselves inclusive, but what groups do they exclude? They call themselves tolerant, but what do they not tolerate?

The answer to the all of the above involves 'Political Correctness', which in many cases means 'no correctness' at all.

Only the 'truth' can overcome their LIES. Are we capable of knowing, handling and speaking the 'TRUTH'?

I wish I lived in SD so I could vote against this guy. Daschle must be retired. Hopefully he'll at least be demoted to Minority Leader in the next election.
