You may not have been "seeing things." They project - so that they are ready to go when the news breaks. It's embarassing when they screw up and get caught but it's equally embarassing if they are slow.

MSNBC: palestinian foreign ministry in Gaza city bombed by Israeli warplanes

"make friends", Hillary???

That reminds me of the Girl Scouts:

Make new friends, but keeeeeep the OLD..lalala.

[duffthor]

[Txsleuth]

Besides...her nasty husband did a LOT of talking to Yasser Arafat...the LEADER of terrorists...IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

[Miss Marple]

Ha! Senator Allen calls Arafat a "reptilian, corrupt, terrorist."

[prairiebreeze]

la,la,la indeed. I'm thinking Hillary didn't have many friends when she was little...

[RDTF]

"reptilian"

hilarious - yes he definately looked like a reptile

[RDTF]

yep

[IrishRainy]

Clinton, on the other hand, had Arafat as the most frequent guest in his WH.

Good factoid, Peach. And a whole lotta good THAT did, too.

Why, Clinton single-handedly solved the middle east problem...you see what a little simple dialogue can do? /s

[Txsleuth]

He is a lib...

and, I have been very surprised to see how many Jewish people subscribe to the very lib way of thinking.

But, don't ask me to explain...I admire Israel, and the Jewish people..but I am really ignorant about their politics.

The Darwinists said, "What's the worry? It's survival of the fittest. If we all die, we were unfit and deserve to die. Maybe one of the passengers has dormant gills as a result of sheer dumb evolutionary luck and he'll survive and pass the advantage on to his offspring. If not, well it was all pointless and meaningless anyway. *Glub* *Glub*"

[Txsleuth]

I was thinking that Allen wouldn't get a word in edgewise with Chris Dodd with him...but, he is doing quite well, so far.

[sofaman]

Wesley Clarke is Jewish? What did I do to deserve that?

[Da Mav]

And the New York Times carried the story --

No Comment from Admin on Delay in Deploying Lifeboats
A cruise ship carrying liberal activists mysteriously disappeared yesterday in high seas which experts say could be related to global warming....

Head Off..Apply Directly to the Terrorist. Head Off..Apply Directly to the Terrorist. Head Off..Apply Directly to the Terrorist.
