GREAT POST!
thank you!
I saw General Casey on two of the shows, and I thought he was lousy... slow, halting, unsure of himself and his answers. He's no General Abizaid with the news media.
The military needs to publicly raise Hell with the MSM in front of the American people -- for about the next six months on a sustained basis.
Murtha, Durbin, Schumer, Pelosi -- all of them conspiring with the MSM to spew and spread any lie, any false charge, any innuendo -- solely for the purpose of recapturing the House or Senate.
They are shrill and irresponsible. Power is the only thing that matters to these hatemongers. And they hate our nation.
Please. The RATS and their media handmaidens invent new rhetorical garbage and lies by the hour. They will continue and continue to November 7 and beyond. Beyond their thirst for power, the key reason for their escalating hysteria is their overriding fear of another Supreme Court vacancy.
You're welcome.
Here's the transcript of Turban on FNS:

No question about any of that.
I wrote to my Reps over their stunt of hijacking the appropriations bill for the troops on the Dubai Deal.
I GOT A RESPONSE!
First....MY LETTER:
I have NEVER in my life been so FURIOUS over the behavior from my elected officials.
Capitol Hill DEMANDED a 45 day review- CLAIMING they wanted to take a step back, slow down, and review the facts of the deal. (Dubai Deal)
When they were granted this compromise- you didn't DO ANY OF IT and SLAMMED the door in SIX DAYS!
SIX DAYS!
Now we learn that this was all about companies lobbying Schumer?
http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial/20060304/1068106.asp
You HIJACKED the money for our TROOPS in the scandal no less. My brother is ONE OF THESE BRAVE MEN! He has served in our forces since he graduated high school in 1987. He is now an officer- a FULL MAJOR in the Air Force... a REAL HERO! He has been in IRAQ for TWO TOURS.
I have many times BRAGGED about YOU being my Representative. Your actions have not shown statesman-like behavior.
If my utility company gave me 45 days to pay a bill and then turned off my utilities in 6 days I would be FURIOUS!
There was NO REASON to do this... NONE!
You had 45 days to allow us to get informed, and then voice our thoughts.
Instead you reacted to instant flash polls etc.. instead of looking at the facts and allowing us to learn them before we could make an informed choice- and THEN voice it to you!
I didn't bother calling or writing earlier- because I thought I had 45 days to do so...
YOU ARE THE ONES THAT GAVE US THOSE 45 DAYS and then YANKED THEM AWAY!
I will not trust ANYTHING you EVER promise to us again.
I will support ANYONE who opposes ANY of you in the primary.
You cannot be trusted to be honest with us... let alone clear and cool thinking.
GO hug Schumer and King...
see if THEY will VOTE FOR YOU!
YOU LIED TO US AND TRICKED US!
I am just so disgusted...
Chambliss, Price, Isakson, etc will be hearing the same from me.....
You are doing a FINE job of keeping ABLE DANGER Burried as well....
It is clear the media is your base.. not us...
SINCERELY
My response from Chambliss:
Thank you for contacting me regarding United States
seaport operations. I appreciate hearing from you.
As you are aware, the United Arab Emirates-owned
company, Dubai Ports World (DPW), has withdrawn its bid to take
over operations at six United States seaports and will sell its share
of the acquisition of P & O Ports North America to an American
owner.
In the days shortly after DPW made its announcement, I
traveled with fellow members of the Georgia Congressional
delegation to Dubai and met with government officials as well as
representatives from DPW. I am pleased with the positive
discussions we had and believe the Prime Minister showed
tremendous leadership in urging DPW to transfer operation of the
ports to a United States-owned entity.
The U.S. has a valuable relationship with the United Arab
Emirates and I feel it is critically important that we continue our
partnership and work side by side in fighting terrorism and
cooperating on future trade agreements. We now have the
opportunity to move forward in our relationship and continue to
work together as partners on these priorities.
Thank you again for taking the time to contact me. As
always, I appreciate hearing from you. In the meantime, if you
would like to receive timely e-mail alerts regarding the latest
congressional actions and my weekly e-newsletter, please sign up

Sincerely,
Saxby Chambliss
United States Senate
First, I:
Then I ran to my "wine rack"
then I:
You posted your letter from Chambliss...but no opinion of it by you...
Sssoooooooo, what say you???
LOL>..out posts must have crossed...
Thanks for your "reply"!!!
Be careful though...you don't want to pass out before "24"!!!
THEN! I RESPONDED to him with this letter:
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
You send me some general letter?
You don't acknowledge ONE POINT I made! NOT ONE! You want to use the withdrawl of DPW as an excuse for TAKING OUR VOICE AWAY? How did I guess that would be your cover! HOW DARE YOU USE THEIR WITHDRAWL AS COVER FOR YOUR ACTIONS!
FOR UNDERMINING THE PEOPLE YOU CLAIM TO SERVE?
I know about your trip to Dubai! I heard you on Tony Snow's show.
SO nice of you to play your games! SLIT the throat of the voter by hijacking the troops $$. then run to Dubai and make nice. come back here and try and make nice.
I'm not an MSM mindless parrot. I have FRIENDS IN DUBAI! I KNOW THE CHANGES THEY HAVE UNDERGONE THERE- at the BEQUEST OF THE US AND ON THEIR OWN ACCORD! BUT YOU HAVE BETRAYED THEM and worse YOU BETRAYED US! THE PEOPLE YOU SWORE TO REPRESENT! SPARE ME YOUR GENERAL LETTERS!
I DEMAND AN EXPLANATION! WHERE DO YOU GET OFF SLITTING MY THROAT? We were ALL told there would be a 45 day review. Maybe you need some math lessons. 45 DAYS is more than 7 TIMES 6! You get that?
You treat your Reps the same way the Dems treat Blacks.....you figure you can just play games...where else will we go? I am DONE! It is like choosing between a husband that beats me, or a husband with AIDS.....which one would kill me quicker?
Buffalo News jerked that article off their site.
ROFLLLL!!
YIKES!
HA!
FIGURES!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
I know I'm late answering this, but yes, I'm afraid he would carry Lincoln, and the Ernie Chambers crowd in Omaha. But, NOT IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT. lol
3. Samantha
Straight Talkin' Sama puts the smack down again this week. #323 Well if the Republican's ran a focus group on the three words that fit the Dems and MSM(same animal) they would probably get Crazy,or deranged,anti-American,no plans, and I would add a fourth, complain #888 Russert/Richardson/Rutabaga equals Smarmy greasy kid stuff. #936.That is one of the reasons why I do not like Mr. Will. He does not mind being crapped on as long as he can say some of his pompous crap on Teevee once in a while. He thinks he gets them back by talking down to them,but they treat him for just what he is a suck up panderer for Publicity #942. He probably imagines that Delaware is really an important State in the Electoral College. Well, let us not disabuse him of that thinking. Also 164, 216, 274, 340, 387, 458, 597, 615, 641, 674, 808, 831, 834, 884, 889. 897, 899, 902, 906, 913, 918, 919, 926, 927, 929, 933, 934, 938, 942, 946, 948, 1037, 1046, 1048, 1054, 1084, 1087, 1088 and dozens more.
2.Cardinal4.
The Card is back with a formidable display of freeper excellence. #536 Going off of the wagon is something the dummies pray for. One of the granolas at work said his inability to handle his addiction is evident in his running of the country. Me and my 8 years of sobrety almost clocked her. Ones addiction and the past that comes with it should VERBOTEN to discuss. People like myself pray daily for anther day without a drink, and we pray for others in the same boat. W has to manage this issue while managing two wars, smarmy peolosi's and reids and a hostile media. It is a testament to W's fortitude, faith and sheer determination that he has not gone of the wagon. It is people like W who give hope and understanding that faith will keep us sober. People likeme look to the Ws for our guidance an understanding of our albatross. To see the left and the media bandy ones addiction about for politcal gain is quite disheartening.. #168. Murtha and Timmy-an exercise in futility, blame and arrogance. Not to mention being politically out of touch. Hey, Timmy! Did you get a lawyer yet? It looks like the Plame Game is calling your name...! #247. Good Morning! As usual, lacking a TV, I find out everything from other posters. Has Cheney been hammering the Iraq documents? The smoking gun is in there. Did Mr. Durbin or Mr I-was-just-subpoened-and-the-plame-chickens-are-coming-home-to-roost-Russert refer to the docs at all? The ones from 2002 where anl-Qaeda cell in Baghdad was known to Saddam? The "R"s should be hammering that doc!! #580. Clinton most certainly should have been impeached. I heard, probably here, that the reason they went after him for Monica, was because if they went after him for what he did with China, it would shake the publics faith in the Presidency. They had to punish him for China, but couldnt do it without destabilzing the government. #588 Oh yeah and another reason Clinton should have been impeached-losing contact with the "Nuclear Football" for a period of an hour or more. Another would be his refusing to launch and attack on a Bin Ladin camp, because he was too busy at a golf outing. It is a shame that the current crop of dems wants to avenge Clintons own undoing 672. Short and to the point. And no lip biting, no "feeling ones pain" and no ambiguity. Just an admonishment, albeit gentle, to remember those who have sacraficed for Iraq. He truly is one of the best Presidents we have had to date, and I dont care who calls me a Bushbot..!. #862 About Senator Ted Kennedy My Dad refers to Mr Kennedy (I use that title loosely)as an oxygen thief. I think that sums him up rather nicely.. Also. 215, 2566, 302, 311, 361, 368, 406, 419, 502, 544, 595, 625, 634, 650, 679, 684, 698, 709, 772, 813, 826, 887, 892, 904, 908, 920, 935, 951, 960, 970, 1007, 1052, 1083, 1098, and 1103.
Back shortly with the winner
Always the life of the party the Princess of Smarmy also gave us an awesome demonstration of intellect on the thread this week. Just totally ran away with it this week. #301 here is a piece I wrote on January 29, 2005....on the cusp of the first Iraqi "purple finger event".... I hope you all enjoy it as much as I enjoyed researching it, and writing it..... The Harder the Conflict, the More Glorious the Triumph "The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain, too cheap, we esteem too lightly:--'Tis dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to set a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed, if so celestial an article as Freedom should not be highly rated....... I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death." Thomas Paine- The American Crisis (Also the author of Common Sense.) Common Sense was published on January 9, 1776 and became an instant best seller. It was a 50 page pamphlet that outlined a strong case for the colonies to go to war, seeking Independence. (Snip....) She choose to post it as it's ownb thread but she could of posted it on the Sunday thread #669 pinged many of you to this thread already.. Hope you like this... a LOT of research and hard work to put it together.. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1599185/posts Why Do We Only Use One Vote, and Throw Away Two? #690 Yes, and how long did it take us to bring down the evil empire? uuuuhhhhhmmmmmmmm......1 hour and 35 minutes...without commercials...so what did I win? #1024 have ya'll seen this article? Tapes reveal Iraqi plans for lying to inspectors (Suddam)"They have a bigger problem with the chemical program than the biological program," he says. "We have not told them that we used it on Iran, nor have we told them abut the size or kind of chemical weapons that we produced, and we have not told them the truth about the imported material." He went on to say, "We imported a quantity from America and we imported a quantity from Europe #996 I want to know what Congress is going to do to keep me from gettting 20 emails a day on penile extensions.... #1115 I was going to post this pic when you called me a slave driver #1134 yes- and the feminazis just WORSHIP MEN! LOL! OY! hun- if you weren't trying to castrate men- they wouldn't have contempt for YOU! I don't feel men have contempt for me....but you feminazis sure do have contempt for me.... Also, 169, 219, 226, 242, 262, 269, 300, 304, 314, 320, 326, 366, 408, 470, 479, 483, 529, 552, 697, 707, 712, 715, 718, 721, 725, 732, 734, 740, 742, 745, 750, 753, 754, 758, 760, 763, 765, 768, 773, 774, 780, 783, 787, 791, 807, 815, 847, 851, 861, 863, 992, 996, 999, 1021, 1024, 1033, 1049, 1050, 1055, 1060, 1062, 1063, 1069. 1071. 1076. 1080, 1090, 1091, 1092, 1110, 1109, 1118, 1120, 1121, 1125, 1126, 1128, 1131, 1142, 1144, 1146, 1147, 1159, 1152 and dozens and dozens and dozens of others.
