You know what the best part of today is?

As somebody else said on another thread:

Somewhere in this country, Maureen Dowd's head is exploding.

FoxNews analyst referred to Clinton crying about nothing of historical value happening during his admin, so he couldn't be historical.

Well, x42, there were plenty of things. The difference is leadership, not followship.

You followed the polls and adjusted your policies accordingly. (Followship)

GWB has stepped up and led the Nation in what needed to be done without regard to the polls. (Leadership)

A good response from the Washington Post:

Terrorist attacks decreased sharply worldwide in 2002 to their lowest level since 1969, the State Department's annual report released yesterday shows, and Secretary of State Colin Powell hailed the war on terrorism for foiling the deadly plots. "The last time the annual total fell below 200 attacks was in 1969, shortly after the advent of modern terrorism," said Cofer Black, State Department coordinator for counterterrorism. The report showed a steep reduction in attacks by "international terrorists" to 199 in 2002 from 355 a year earlier — a 44 percent drop. The number of deaths fell to 725 from 3,295 in 2001, a year that included the September 11 attacks, the report said.

Did you hear the pilot that flew Bush in?

Outstanding!

[swheats]

They are probably running subliminal messages beneath the broadcast to 'suck you in."

[Howlin]

Thanks!

Why is CNN still in business

Remember...these are the end days of the Clinton News Network!!!

[Anamensis]

I wish I could strike people dead over the TV.

I am so grateful to know I'm not the only one who thinks such things. Every time I watch liberals on talk shows I fantasize about having "death finger"... all I have to do is point and say ... "ZOT!!"

[VAVERA]

You are so funny - LOL

[Mo1]

FNC just airing the tape of the pilot that flew with the President and how the President flew the plane

Is this President Great or What !!!!

[Fracas]

1. Puts people to sleep in airports - making them more docile.

2. They have a pre-paid space on the satellites.

3. They make us appreciate FOX.

4. They need a place for the Libs to vent.

What is great about Scarborough is he has both guests on the right. No left or right just right>

[prairiebreeze]

One of the big reasons that terrorism escalated was because Slick Willy showed weakness by not confronting it effectively. A fatal mistake when dealing with Arabs, Muslims and Islamofascists.

It's be cause of Bush's courage and willingness to call a situation for what it IS instead of what we would like it to be, is why the War on Terrorism has been successful and terrorism rate is as low as it was in 1969.

OMG! Fox News talking about this just now!!

And the end of the Clinton "legacy."

[liberalnot]

you got that right!

ten years ago, i was watching the clinton-pukens on the cbs-abc-nbc-cnn nightly news. it dawned on me that the big 4 were protecting the clinton-pukens.

so, never a big tv watcher, a book reader, i unplugged my tv, picked it up, and carried it out to the apartment dumpster, dropped it several times on the pavement, and trashed it. an astonished tv viewer came up to ask what i was doing. and i said, getting the clintons out of my face.

[floriduh voter]

Yeah re: Bruce Willis. Did you hear them say that President Bush flew the plane up to 6K feet?
