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

But then, without ever getting Osama...

Osama is a blot on the wall of some cave and you know it. Did his digi-cam run out of batteries? He's dead as Dillinger.

we diverted energies to IRaq, which doesn't have WMDs and didn't have a hand in 9-11 (both, as Bush himself now acknoweldges).

Bush never claimed Iraq was involved in 9/11, as you well know. Two weeks ago the President said we may still find WMD. And events seem to have overtaken your ostrich like stand anyway:

Iraqi WMDs, Now in Syria--An expert says we know where to look....

Saddam's WMD Have Been Found

Keep your head in the sand and start crying when your kids either fight these creatures in the streets of your hometown or bow to Mecca five times a day.

All meat and no potatoes, Bud, that's you.

Howya doing Commish?

Skelton, "you might have notified the world but you did not notify this committee."

Idiot.

[ken5050]

This thread is dying like the Dems' odds oftakingover the House..

[Darlin']

If you mean command failure on her part I agree.

[Peach]

GOOD POINT. To "delay" release of the pictures is to "suppress" them for a certain period of time.

Your semantics ala Clinton are duly noted.

You left out the most important part of that discussion, however. The very real fear that the pictures would inflame the Arab world and bring tragedy on our soldiers in terms of their safety.

Not that you seem to worry about little things like that.

[commish]

NOw saying that maybe they should get a WEEKLY BREIFING on ongoing investigations ..OH Gawd.

[ken5050]

He reminds me of Clem Kadiddlehopper....the old Red Skelton character..

[cyncooper]

Thank you for noting the numbers Rumsfeld gave.

The dems have tried to portray this as being ignored and/or approved from the highest levels.

Beyond absurd, the facts of the ongoing investigations and actions such as noted belie that assertion.

[VRWC_minion]

Churchhill is right

We should have pulled our troops out from surrounding Iraq and send them to Oregon to stop the Madrid bombings

On the topic of when this information about investigations and photos was disclosed.

Some congressman: You may have announced it to the world, but you didn't tell me.

[Maigrey]

Well, I'm here for reporting duty and will continue for the cube dwellers until it's finished.

[Darlin']

Sure will. :)

[Sacajaweau]

I think Hillary wins "blunder of the day" with her "well publicized report" bit. "How did you know about it? I didn't", said Rummy.

[Semper Paratus]

Again the 'rats came loaded for bear but only had air guns.

[Maigrey]

If the people in the House want to get weekly briefings, they wouldn't get any other work accomplished.

Let's do it!!! (/only slightly sarcastic)

[Darlin']

Guess their Ivory Tower isn't of this world.

[Maigrey]

Rep from NJ - Jim Saxon - noting that most of the investigations are still ongoing - and 3 of the people in question are up for court martial - and the other 3 are still under investigation.

Saxon was pretty good.

[LisaFab]

LOL! Wish the nets would have continued coverage of this--the sheeple might actually see some of the fools they perpetually elect in action.

[arasina]

Thanks for the link. I just used the website contact form to send a message of support and to express my hope that an investigation would be made regarding Senator Clinton's knowledge of the details even before Secretary Rumsfeld.

[prairiebreeze]

I might consider speaking to the store manager after an incident like that. And I certainly let the manager know why my business was going elsewhere.
