"I'm switching winter clothes with summer clothes and cleaning out closets."

Must be nice to live in a part of the country where you can do that.

What no car chases, explosions, kidnappings, slimy trials??? LOL!

[pinz-n-needlez]

My computer was out yesterday, I thought I would die! lol

Exactly. The Dem's fear Condi more than anyone in the administration which is why I say put her on and let the African-American community at large (not just the idealogue thugs at the NAACP) see how Dems really feel. Let their latent racism and hostility show while Condi shows class and strength that Hillary would only dream about having. You know Hillary fears her more than anyone and is probably the one encouraging the thrashing.

According to Rumsfeld, the Bush administration was trying to approach terrorism from a different angle as far back as March 2001. By that he meant, what policies and plans that were in place then, weren't refined enough.

Looks like we are going to have to start a Pukin Dog fan club. He does bring quite the therapeutic touch to these times of tension!

"I heard it mentioned on the radio this morning that well before 9/11, Condi was on the lecture circuit talking about al qaeda and terrorism"

Hannity played a tape of her comments about this that she made in early October 2000.

Mark Geragos orders a cheeseburger, and I am sure FOX will break in with a News Flash.

"Clinton was concerned about terrorism and spoke about it publicly"

Can I get a BARF alert?

[Spotsy]

Why has no one mentioned the commission on airline safety that Al Gore chaired in the late 90s?

Immediately following the 9/11 attacks, the mother of a man killed in the plane blown up over Lockerbie was on FOX News to discuss having served on the airline safety commission with Gore -

she was angry that Gore personally shot down the recommendation to harden and secure cockpit doors and require them to be locked during flight to avoid hijackings.

[OESY]

I thought Podhoretz would be good (on Fox). Just skewered Clarke: "He did nothing!"

[BigSkyFreeper]

Yep! Slow news day at FOX! LOL

[Dr Snide]

or strong enough.

[cajungirl]

Gore has gotten off scot free with the airline safety thing.

[freeperfromnj]

Clarke will be exposed today. Wonder if the Lowry bombshell is a Kerry connection.

[arasina]

Did you just hear on FNC P.J. Crowley say Janet Reno was "shaking every tree" to get info in order to be safe for Y2K? Partisan baloney abounds.

[AMDG]

Puskin Dog,

"Clarke is going to implicate himself, nobody needs to yell at him or be rude with him. Think of razor-blades instead of hammers. Also, remember the goal here is a tie."

Do you know something we don't know?

You remind me of Quidom who posted during the Monica mess.

[Mo1]

Are you watching this exchange on FNC between PJ Crowly and the guy from the NY Post

The dude from the post just called a Crowly a liar *L*

[Dr Snide]

everyone is scared that if they bring Gore back into this he'll feel the need to speak again, and that scares the children. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, THINK ABOUT THE CHILDREN

[BigSkyFreeper]

Yes, that too.
