Hossana to Him on this Palm Sunday.

[MotleyGirl70]

I'll be watching.

Thank goodness Trent "vacant" Lott isn't on FOX News Sunday. I don't know why he even gets air time on there.

[McGruff]

From what I heard on CNN, Dick(Big Time) Cheney said no meeting with Yessir Arafart!
while tapeing interview with Sheep Blitzer for his show later today.

[boomop1]

I hope Cheney busts the twirp Schieffer in the chops, well at least makes a bigger fool of the fool.

[Redleg Duke]

If you look at "This Week", you see the impact of McCain's CFR. Emanuel gets free campaign boost. This is how it will be if CFR doesn't get ruled unconstitutional.

Thanks, Traitor John! You did it to us in Nam and you did it to us in Washington.

Big front page story in the NY Times this morning: "A Secret Iran-Arafat Connection ...". Iran's mullahs have been providing weapons and millions of $$$ to Arafat ever since the Intifada started again in late 2000.

Iran is also harboring senior Al Queda who came across the border from Afghanistan, one of whom recently sent three terrorists with bomb making instructions to Palestine. They were stopped in Turkey. It's a powerful story.

Now, who were those guys who scoffed at GWB for including Iran in the "axis of evil"? Surely they'll be made to retract those words on this morning 's shows....NOT!

[Snardius]

What other possible reason for having Rahm Emanuel on This Week than to improve the chance that this oily clintonista is elected to the congress?

Sorry..."oily clintonista" is a redundancy.

[TomGuy]

Ashcroft on FNS--we're not profiling, we're just looking for common characteristics. Duh!

[TomGuy]

Ashcroft = FNS. "What's going on in the INS could drive a man to drink. Not, me, of course." LOL. Sounds like a renovation of the INS is going to happen.

[YaYa123]

I suppose we should be glad that some of our good guys aren't slick, lying, spinning, verbal snake charmers, but good grief, the inarticulation of Ashcroft and O'Neill are mind boggling!

[mystery-ak]

as always, please keep us 'time delayed' deprived updated.....thanks.

[Benrand]

Re: INS...

Now how in the hell could the INS have mustered such a powerful offense against poor CUbans in Miami, but NOT be able to get these terrorists after five years knowing they might fly planes into buildings?

To me, that is the most important question that needs to be answered...were they told NOT to go after these people? IF they could mobilize so quickly against a group of people not especially aligned with Democrats, could they have moved with such swiftness and force against Mohammed Atta?

It's disgusting.

[caltrop]

He'll ge elected without any trouble. It's a yellow dog Democrat seat. ABC is positioning him as something more than just another freshman Congressman.

[ken5050]

I'm listening to the PLO head liar on Fox now..why do they give these scum air time..I swear, if cable TV existed during WW II, we'd have Joseph Goebbels on the air every week telling us how the concentration camps were spas..

[Methos]

That'll be the day......The republicans are nicey nice to a fault. They ought to start fighting fire with fire and take no prisoners.Been waiting for this to happen since '95.

[GraniteStateConservative]

His election is a foregone conclusion barring anything criminal.

[StriperSniper]

[Miss Marple]

No, his election is a foregone conclusion BECAUSE of something criminal.

Who was that guy that used to post "The democrat party is a criminal enterprise?"

[Miss Marple]

Are we supposed to guess what that is, like the ink-blot test?

[clintonh8r]

Gee..Dashole isn't co-hosting with Russert today...
