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

Your comment is based on the premise that they wanted answers. The Senators wanted to speechify in front of the camera. Getting answers wasn't their main agenda.

Again .. you are correct

Now I think I need a beer to relax after watching that today

[kcvl]

Thank you!

[faithincowboys]

I missed it, did Warner act like a wuss?

[ken5050]

Weldon's comments were interesting..especially the one about a transferred platoon leader who's an aid to a sitting memebr of congress..HUH???

[Cold Heat]

Popping top right now!

[faithincowboys]

Lindsey Graham is another wuss.

[kcvl]

Me too, HUH?!

[Snerfling]

I think the Enemy Within is working their a$$es off to cost us this war.

The Dems appear to over-press their advantage each and every time. As people come to realize that there was an ongoing investigation following formal channels of review, etc., attention will shift from shock to the recognition that these images have helped aid and abet the enemy.

Rumsfeld has nothing to say and as he and Hunter leave the mike some idiotic male reporter yells out "How close a call was it? Were you close to resigning?"

Sorry RATS. You've been foiled AGAIN.

[txradioguy]

He's still on FNC.

[ken5050]

LOL..that got my keyboard with a spew...

[LisaMalia]

Well folks, T-minus seven minutes until we see three alphabet evening news broadcasts open with the creeps disrupting the Senate hearing with their anti-Rummy, anti-war chants.

I almost lost it when I heard those wannabe hippies. Why were they allowed in there in the first place? I was at my parents watching it by myself as they were both still asleep. It was all I could do not to SCREAM at the TV!

[Mo1]

especially the one about a transferred platoon leader who's an aid to a sitting memebr of congress..HUH???

Thanks .. for some reason I thought it was a family member of a staffer

I wonder who that person staffed for?

[faithincowboys]

John Kerry isn't fit to fluff the balls of a mule. God Help me, I despise John Kerry.

[PISANO]

While I think we have a few others in Congress that are patriotic, I GET YOUR MAIN POINT. We are in trouble as a NATION.

Too many IN CONGRESS, actually DESPISE this country. The CBC thinks we are a racist nation, the hispanics on the Dims side think we took THE SOUTHWEST from their home country and the Northern ELITES and LEFT COAST METROS, hate our values, hate the south, the military and want to control every aspect of human thought and action because they KNOW BEST!!

It is very disheartening but we can let the bastards win. Thank GOD for men like Duke Cunningham, as a fellow Vietnam Vet, when he speaks, I listen, and he always makes me PROUD to be an AMERICAN.

[TomGuy]

He wants to get in his SUV and leave, but he is answering questions, anyway.

[MEG33]

I am happy you are not active military.

[cyncooper]

Weldon's comments were interesting..especially the one about a transferred platoon leader who's an aid to a sitting memebr of congress..HUH???

I missed that. Huh,indeed.

CSPAN has Rumsfeld at the open door of his car and reporters still asking questions. Someone just asked about the prison being razed and he said (again) he thinks it's up to the Iraqi people.

[ken5050]

I could have heard it wrong..it's something like that..but Curt's a pol...he plays for keeps.hardball.there's a reason he chose to toss out that tidbit in public..set the media to digging..

[texasflower]

Oh, that's right. I forgot about his standing and moving all day long.

I didn't know about the racket ball thing though. That's impressive.

I also remember Brett Baier saying something about him wearing everyone out when they went on a trip several months ago.

That was the first time I was really aware of his age.

I'm 44 and that pace would kill me!!!
