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

[EternalVigilance]

I didn't think I could hate the Left any more than I did.

But their continuing treason has become even more personal to me.

The son of a good friend was reported this morning as being among the latest KIAs in Iraq...killed by animals led by someone John Kerry thinks is a 'legitimate voice'.

I went to church with this fine young man.

I won't forget.

It's all part of the Clinton/Democrat legacy.

First question - The Memo!

[highlandbreeze]

ROFLMBO!! I have much respect for dr. Rice. From what I gather so far, she has done much good!

[Bommer]

You can't fight AQ and hug Hamas" - C. Rice

Then why do they tongue Arafat?

CONDI ROCKS

[Joe Hadenuf]

She stated: "We didn't respond to the USS coal because we thought it would embolden the terrorist"

They bomb a ship of ours or bomb two ships of ours-

Wouldn't attacking one of our warships be an act of war?

[COUNTrecount]

I believe Hillary is the behind the scenes "call for Condi" to testify publicly". It was a call to "destroy her now".

It's absolutely amazing what an incredibly brillant woman can accomplish without the help of a husband.

[maryz]

Wasn't Ben Veniste also counsel to the Democratic party during the Clinton impeachment hearings?

[FourtySeven]

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

He actually called her Dick Clarke at one point?

[jwalsh07]

Once again, why did the Clinton administration not bring the Cole attackers to justice???

The total ineptitude of the Clinton Administration is not a blanket amnesty for mistakes made by Dubya, who I support totally.

We need to learn lessons and the lesson we need to lear here is that when somebody declares war on us we declare war back and respond not in kind but disproportionately every time and ahead of time.

We made a mistake, Dubya made a mistake, we learn and go on.

But we seemed to have learned nothing. al Sadr and the Mahdi have declared war and jihad on American soldiers and we are not responding by dclaring war back and responding disproportionately

al Sadr should be dead by now, he's not. Why not?

[tortoise]

I was impressed by her performance. She comes across every bit as lucid, intelligent, and competent as I've always guessed she was. Of course, she isn't a career bureaucrat either.

If she chose, she could easily be a formidable politician.

[rhombus]

>> YES! Thompson just asked - WHERE WAS THE CONGRESS?

Pretty soon it will all be Ken Starr's fault.

[LisaFab]

Right. No mention of Kerrey repeatedly calling her Dr. Clarke.

[Guenevere]

GOOD GOING DR.RICE....

YOU HAVE MADE US SOOOOOO PROUD!

[No Blue States]

"O.K., time to go grab a 6-pack of brew, a dozen bloodworms, and go catch some bass before my head explodes! ;-)"

Wish I could go with you. Bloodworms for stripers? Ive never tried that, I usually use shad. Good luck.

Go Condi, we love you! You are a great American asset.

[OldFriend]

I listened on the radio and there was a good amount of applause for Condi when she completed her testimony.

[JimSEA]

Headline on Yahoo:

Rice: Nation Ill prepared despite threats.

They had this ready several day ago. In AP, Dr. Rice is criticised for being highly partisan!!

[longtermmemmory]

The Dems are trying to usurp the phrase 9/11 families as if they are all democrats.

While it did happen in NY, I am certain there are rabid democrats who lost loved ones and are not beneath using their families for political gain.

The rents in the WTC were not cheep, they are certain to have been politically active.

[GraniteStateConservative]

She didn't say that. I didn't say she did!

She said an we didn't respond with an inadequate response because it would embolden the terrorists. Big difference.
