[Miss Marple]

Evil Terry Moran and Peter Jennings on. Jennings says this about whether Clarke had access and if Rice made the bureacracy work. And then Jennings says this about Rice's responsibility.

Oh, they are going to have Richard Clarke on in a few minutes. Surprise, surprise!!!

[MEG33]

She is doing great.Thompson just asked about what the Congress was doing?They had to be involved in changing some of the FBI/CIA practices and structure.We need to do more and we will fight for any changes that are needed.

Want PDB..Presidential paper declassified so it may be shared with the American people.The briefing paper will be the center of all dem talking points..It does offer a general overview of Al Queda but was not a specific threat warning..

[alaskanfan]

Gotta run. Time for the frozen four.

[mtbopfuyn]

Hamilton giving her big kudos.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

NOW they want to go back to closed session.

Shouldn't take long as Democrats grandstanding in closed session is useless.

[FourtySeven]

Rather thought she was steady, but didn't offer the 911 families an apology.

Dan Rather and Dick Clarke are both idiots.

[bmwcyle]

VOTE ARE NEEDED!

[LisaFab]

Brit Hume: She gave as good as she got. Fox goes to Kean and Hamilton presser.

CBS showing highlights, much crud about August 6 PDB.

[Brytani]

Britt Hume just made a fantastic point on FNC. He said Kerrey spent a good portion of his opening statment complaning about the Iraq war - then he complained at the end he didn't have enough time to question Dr. Rice.

The only thing he missed was Kerrey's obvious attempts to undermine her authority by calling her Dick Clarke.

"Family members shaking her hand. One woman approaches and hugs her...."

An image I GUARANTEE we will not see on the evening news.

[Sacajaweau]

A half a attack on Afghanistan after the Cole would have likely driven Usama to destroy the Northern Army in Afghanistan and would have changed the whole picture. Without Pakistan, the whole picture changes.

One has to look at the whole before one does something.

[Not A Snowbird]

You will never see any statements in the major maedia that the DemonicRats EVER use BULLYING as a TACTIC!

Sadly, I think you're right.

[TomGuy]

Even Peter Jennings said the Dems attacked Condi more vigorously than the Pubs and he even questioned its 'impartiality.'

[cyborg]

hehe... here read this :D

[Jorge]

Yea, but she was asked a hypothetical about destroyers attacked, and she answered that a tit for tat response would be ill advised. Not a good answer, IMO.

That was the only answer I think she could have done better explaining...but of course the bombing of the Cole happened under Clinton, so it shouldn't be the most important aspect of her testimony.

[texasbluebell]

Ha! Have fun over there on the dark side.

Can be entertaining, but I'm not up to it today...
