I'm sure all the networks will be showing this.

I HAD to take a break from this.
Will my lunch stay down if I return to watching it?

[Maigrey]

Well, it seems that some of the house members are doing the 9-11 commission form - posturing and posing for the cameras.

[Peach]

Thanks for posting that.

I was too busy responding to some freeper who is trying to pretend that there is no linkage between Iraq and AQ.

Sheesh - could people be any more stupid?

[prairiebreeze]

I just emailed See BS too. But I didn't offer to ever start viewing them again, under any circumstance. :^P

[Mo1]

That's because all the questioning so far has been by the Repuplican Chairman (Hunter?)

I should have known better

[JFC]

They will STOOP to the lowest level of the snakes belly....
and they still have months to go.

God forgive them for their evil ways, for they no not what they are saying/thinking or doing.

I'm at work so I can't call YET. If you happen to see an email for Rummy PLEASE ping me to it!

Rummy had already risen to leave, but had to sit back down and listen to Frist "do his thing". I hate it when Republicans act no better than Democrats..but then, among senators, there's hardly any difference.

Hillary had prearranged face time in front of camera's after the event. Frist simply cut her off by using his office.

[Darlin']

"The HOuse hearing doesn't rate a "demonstration?" that's sooo..unfair.. "

I noticed that. You know, I hesitate to say this but, traditionally the House has had the reputation of being the rowdier of the two chambers with the Senate being the more dignifed and distinguished body. However, of late, the most egregious and disgraceful behavior rest squarely on the Senatte side.

[Maigrey]

If you do, take some antiacids, but you should watch.

Rummy's up, and laying to the reps. It's astounding: 18000 criminal investigations, and 3000 court martials.

Vending their feelings


Globe-trotting Lauren Hutton came home from a recent trip to Tanzania with a suitcase full of macabre souvenirs.

"They were selling watches in carts, with pictures of Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden on them," the venerable supermodel told us. "For $1.50."


And did she buy one?

"Are you kidding?" said Hutton, who last night was the guest of honor at a benefit here for the African Rainforest Conservancy. "I bought every one they had" (as mementos for friends and family).

Terrorists' bombs rocked the U.S. Embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, in August 1998.

Asked if she felt the watch vendors were anti-American, Hutton, a critic of the Bush administration, said: "I've been feeling pretty un-American myself, lately. But then I didn't approve of the Roman Empire either when it went stomping around the world."

[JFC]

better yet, call their advertisers... and tell CBS they are not watched in your home!

[MJY1288]

Yes I caught it, I guess he figures we shouldn't give the soldiers what they need to defend themselves. He's an ass

[ken5050]

another good thing coming out of these hearings..There are a lot worse pics and images to come, more graphic..accordign to Rumy..but now, they won't have any impact...domestically..they've been defused, so to speak..

[Maigrey]

Skelton whining that there was a presser, but that the house members weren't informed.

What do they want, a gold lettered invitation, and a (censored) before they quit whining about knowing?

[prairiebreeze]

He didn't have to. No pictures.

Prairei

[commish]

Rummy slapping Skelton for asking why they were not aware of this. Rummy points out that last year there were 18000 investigations and 3000 Courts Martials, and there is not time to vet each one for congress. Then points out CENTCOM had news Conference on March 12 to the whole world, so Congress knew then!

[ken5050]

I was jes funnin' with him..(G)

[VRWC_minion]

dumbest comment on Congress of the decade.

He may have announced it to the world, he didn't tell us.
