Well, it looks like Iraq is going to be the topic of discussion

[The Raven]

Here's the Sunday morning topic from the DNC think tank

[be-baw]

Well, it looks like Iraq is going to be the topic of discussion

...and the baseball baloney.

[BOBTHENAILER]

This is getting more coverage tha it desrves.....must be a pre-election DNC stategy.

You got this one nailed right on the head. These POS RAT facilitators have had this non-story for how many decades?

I sure don't remember any of this SHOCKING non-news coming out when Billy boy was lobbing cruise missles into IRAQ. I didn't even read your thread yesterday because, by the title alone, I could see the propaganda written on the wall. I read it today for grins and loved the comments about Roosevelt and Stalin.

[BOBTHENAILER]

So are B.B. King and Eagleburger gonna discuss how the "Thrill Is Gone" over attacking Iraq?

[Gillmeister]

Why does that dolt Brian Williams cock his head like that? Did he have a neck injury as a child?

[Right_in_Virginia]

Aren't Eagleburger and Scrowcroft the same two who rallied to leave Saddam in power after the Gulf War?

I'm listening to Eagleburger on Fox right now...and Lord, he sounds like a jacka$$. (IMHO)

[BOBTHENAILER]

Sen. Jon S. Corzine (D-NJ), presidential economic adviser R. Glenn Hubbard and Hall of Fame shortstop Ozzie Smith.

Ozzie Smith will be fielding hot bouncing shots into the hole from lead-off hitter Corzine. Next up to challenge the all star will be pinch hitter Hubbard, who will attempt to advance the runner with a hard line drive over Ozzie's glove into the Fortune 500 outfield.

[BOBTHENAILER]

Did he have a neck injury as a child?

Yes he did, but what is not widely publicized, but is blatantly obvious, was the severe brain damage suffered during the same accident.

[Bahbah]

Brit Hume is the best interviewer ever.

[Right_in_Virginia]

I agree.

But I am growing weary of hearing Bush 41 has-beens telling us how "very afraid" we should be about stopping Saddam NOW.

I don't understand why they're advocating waiting until Saddam is even stronger.

[mystery-ak]

LOL....it obviously cut off oxygen to the brain....end result Brian Williams!

[cajungirl]

Brian AKA the Dolt is trying to look serious and penetrating. He looks like a blow-dried priss to me. I love Brit Hume esp when he responds to some dem whackjob. I do not think the dems are going to scare the populace into shrinking from what needs to be done although they are working overtime on it.

[mystery-ak]

Being CDT deprived.....what is happening?

[maica]

BB King gave a great interview about Elvis. Nice to hear an elderstatesman of the rock'n'roll era express himself so well. (as contrasted to the Ozzy Osbournes of later music genres.) I am hoping that new generations of young people will 'rediscover' rock'n'roll/soul music. It really was the best!!!

[Keith in Iowa]

Why does that dolt Brian Williams cock his head like that?

It keeps you from noticing his nose is as bent as Slick's willy...

September 6, 2002: New Moon

[McGruff]

Lawrence Eagleburger said on Fox News Sunday that he doubted very highly the Pres. Bush's father was in any way connected to Scowcroft's statement about IRAQ.
