Rice Testifies Before 9/11 Cmsn. National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice testifies before the Sept. 11 Commission.

[LisaFab]

Somebody's got to take CBS for sure.

[Constitution Day]

7 South Korean Captives RELEASED (per FNC)

[antivenom]

The real answer is WE DON'T cross administration "lines" to respond to previous attacks on our country...hence the fly swatting...

[JustPiper]

GO JIM!

where was Congress?

[cyborg]

Because they won't talk about Klintoon's gaffes

[texasbluebell]

He has to light a match to see if the bulb is burning

But it's already so dim that he can't even strike the match.

[mombonn]

YES! Thompson just asked - WHERE WAS THE CONGRESS?

[altura]

Oh, oh, introduces the C-word.

I thought Congress was not in any way to be considered for blame!

[Joe Hadenuf]

We didn't respond to the USS Cole because we thought it would embolden the terrorist?

Huh? Did I hear that right?

[Inspectorette]

WIsh I could participate, but I'm cubicle-bound. However, fortunate to have KFI live feed and have been listening , fascinated by this amazing, courageous woman.

Can't wait to hear Rush's take on all of it!

[Sacajaweau]

The Bush team should have retaliated for the Cole? Aren't they asking the wrong White House resident?

[Coop]

Wonder if the NAGS and Patricia Ireland and The women of the Black Cacus will hold a press conference expressing their ourtrage at this white male mistreating this exceptional black woman during her testamony?

I was thinking along similar lines. Remember four years ago when Lazio cleaned The Shrew's clock during the debate? All anyone in the media could talk about was how he invaded her space, trying to bully her. Booohoooo!

Why do I have the feeling that BV's bullying won't be a big issue tomorrow?

[kitkat]

***When this is over, let's EACH take a different cable station and report back what each of them are saying!!!***

I'm not watching cable, but CBS on radio keeps repeating Condi's response, "I'm sorry, commissioner, but I don't remember if I told the President that."

Of ALL the things she's said, they HAVE to pick the one that sounds like Hitlery's I don't remember, I can't recall.

Thank God our local show host is creaming the libs.

[prairiebreeze]

Thanks for the link

[cyn]

wow on that info. bin venista indeed.

what if in march of 2001 al qaida had blown up another ship -- condi -- have to hold at risk what they ?hold dear, it's an issue of can you do strategic damage to this organization. he: blowing up our destroyers is an act of war is it not? she: we didn't like tit for tat, not connected to political policy that would have changed the course of al qaida -- we really believed an inadequate response would have emboldened them.

he" we've talked about structural danger in fbi, etc -- BUT this must be done by congress where was congress?

great question . . .

[Nonstatist]

Her response on the Cole is very weak. If our destroyers are attacked, you declare War. I dont know why she is responding like that.

[Indy Pendance]

The Cole attack happened on the Impeached Administration, Dr. Rice is carefully not stating this. Why didn't the Impeached Adminstration deal with the Cole attack at the time it happened? As stated, it was an act of war, of course, The Impeached President was worrying about avoiding terrorist teeth.

[McGruff]

she has "made no major gaffes"

Unlike the Evil DUers heroes John F*ing Kerry and Howeird Dean.

[Pukin Dog]

The Cole answer by Condi is weak. But she's still batting .990.

No it is not.

You would be surprised at how effective THE TRUTH can be. Condi Rice has enough confidence to admit when she does not know something. Had she appeared to know everything, then some might ask how she could miss 911.

[jwalsh07]

HALLEFREAKINGLUJAH!

WHERE THE HELL WAS CONGRESS AND WHY DIDN"T THEY DECLARE WAR ON AL QA"IDA AND WHY DID THEY ALLOW THE DESTRUCTION OF OUR INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY.

iracles never cease.
