MTP
Newly-self-appointed SecDef Murtha is telling Russert how the war should be run.
NOte how m any times Turdbin said
illegal
warrantless
broke the law
unlawful
He's trying to call our bluff about the censor vote going forward
You want to miss Murtha saying that the Administration is trying to blame the failures in Iraq on the military???? BTW, I have not heard the Admin do any such thing. Anyone?
I'm sure that Durbin was sweating by the end of the interview, and questioning his "competence" in agreeing to be on FNS to carry Feingold's water re impeachment.
Morning rodguy911!
Got your email and will write later.
I'll add my congratulations to Seattle Conservative, Anita and Phsspok as well.
Great job last week!

MoveOn.org's vision includes House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and putting Rep. John P. Murtha in charge of defense budget measures
Thanks Mo1.
No end in sight? Maybe Dick is having trouble seeing the forest for all the trees in the way?
tall = take.....nightmare spelling. lol
What else could she use?
FEMA has grabbed up all the
THIS VEHICLE MAKES WIDE TURNS
signs for their hurricane trailer transporters.
Where were you on the cesure vote Durbin???? You talk all tough but you lack the moral courage to back up your retoric with actions. Here is why Democrats fail. They simply tell you what they think you want to hear. They are born followers, not LEADERS. If President Bush is so wrong Senator Durbin, why are you doing NOTHING about the NSA program? What Legislation have you offered up Senator? ACTION, not WORDS, matter Senator. Durbin, just another Kerry Democrat.
Thanks & good morning Morgan.
LOL!
Yes, and he always has the Pubbie on first so they can't rebut the cr*pola the Dims spew.
Betcha that Timmy and the others won't mention any of this:
What We've Gained In 3 Years in Iraq by Donald Rumsfeld
Washington Post ^ | March 19, 2006 | Donald H. Rumsfeld

Some have described the situation in Iraq as a tightening noose, noting that "time is not on our side"and that "morale is down." Others have described a "very dangerous" turn of events and are "extremely concerned."
Who are they that have expressed these concerns? In fact, these are the exact words of terrorists discussing Iraq -- Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and his associates -- who are describing their own situation and must be watching with fear the progress that Iraq has made over the past three years.
The terrorists seem to recognize that they are losing in Iraq. I believe that history will show that to be the case.
Fortunately, history is not made up of daily headlines, blogs on Web sites or the latest sensational attack. History is a bigger picture, and it takes some time and perspective to measure accurately.
Consider that in three years Iraq has gone from enduring a brutal dictatorship to electing a provisional government to ratifying a new constitution written by Iraqis to electing a permanent government last December. In each of these elections, the number of voters participating has increased significantly -- from 8.5 million in the January 2005 election to nearly 12 million in the December election -- in defiance of terrorists' threats and attacks.
One of the most important developments over the past year has been the increasing participation of Iraq's Sunni community in the political process. In the volatile Anbar province, where Sunnis are an overwhelming majority, voter turnout grew from 2 percent in January to 86 percent in December.

Glorioski! Biden on board!
Trasference. Murtha the one running around screaming "Our military is broke" Stupid idiots. Do they think we do not fact check them?
Here 's this sunday's Media Nuggets
###### NBC's Campbell Brown & Dan Senor were dating for some time. Now, they are engaged & their engagement party was attended by Mr. & Mrs.Tom Brokaw(!), Pete Williams, Tucker Carlson, Victoria Toensing, Ashcroft, John Gibson, Ari Fleischer, John Moody(Fox VP), Lester Holt among many others.
###### Power is moving from the old media elite to bloggers. "Monolithic media empires must "change or die." -> says News Corp. boss Rupert Murdoch. (Anyone at Fox listening?)
###### Doug Simmons, editor-in-chief of The Village Voice is fired -> after the revelation of fabrications in a cover story. (Atleast prove that they are better than NYTimes or Wash.Post.)
###### NYTimes has chosen it's 2008 favorite, Hillary & started foulplaying in photographing her opponents.. It assigned 4 reporters - Anne Kornblut, Raymond Hernandez, Adam Nagourney & Patrick Healy to cover her. It also will publish excerpts of the biography of Mrs. Clinton by Don Van Natta Jr. when completed.
###### Media ethics 101 -> When hard drive goes bust & data can't be last, we PAY big money to recover. But NYTimes reporter finds an easy way and saved $2700. -> promoted that company in CBS & wrote a puff piece in NYTimes.
###### When Bill Bennett spends his own money in Las Vegas on gambling, for MSM it 's a scandal. New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman goes to Las Vegas and gamble publicly, and nobody cares.
###### Throwing stones from glass-house - Moody's downgrade NYTIMES Debt-Rating -> Moody's Investors Service said Friday it may cut its rating of the New York Times Co.'s debt because of the company's weak cash flow, high financial leverage, and declining margins. Meanwhile, Stock Market is 5 year high as economy booms.
