Its still confusing though [*LOL*]: Fox has John Bolton and NBC has Josh Bolten.

My suggestion yesterday was that Timmah's booking people tried to get Ambassador Bolton but got the wrong Bolten.  I can imagine the phone call from NBC to the White House "send us Bolton" and the White House staffer replying "Mr. Bolten will be happen to come on your program."

"Watch the Jekyl and Hyde transformation. Here we go."

I just alerted my neighbors to my disgust with Fat Timmy Boy. They had to hear me hollering at him.

This interview is nothing but a sham, an attempt to continually discredit the Administration.

I love the irony of Juan's son being Republican! Thanks for that nugget....of pure gold. LOL

I wonder why newspapers are called the Sun seems a strange name for them or also Star.

[Bahbah]

Central. MTP is the first thing I get.

Back in 1837 there was not very much light when the sun was not out. Just a few candles. Their masthead has the rays of the sun shining forth the news, I guess.

[TomGuy]

MTP

Is Thomas E. Ricks a retired General or former Secretary of Defense?

He thinks he know more how to run the war in Iraq. Then we would have a fiasco.

[snugs]

Sounds like worth putting a DVD in today then.

Newt on CSPAN is great

[old_sage_says]

"Geez, this is turning into the Juan show."


Sometimes, I wonder if Juan thinks he holds and wields a "magic juand".

[samantha]

#63, you really outdid yourself with your nuggets this week. They brought the usual ear to ear grins in freeper households all across the fruited plain. Keep them coming...

Prez is inconsistent because he doesn't ban all research, including private efforts, that use embryos.

All this talk about embryos this past week gives me the creeps. Plus I heard some Senator on Laura Ingraham, wish I could remember his name, but he convinced me that fetal stem cells were not the miracle cure they are purported to be. Turns out adult stem cells and cord blood were much more promising.

Then yesterday I saw Bush introducing some children and his statement was "these children were adopted as embryos". The point being to prove those embryos were human beings or like that.

All I could think of is how on earth someone adopts embryos? Is there, like, a warehouse of embryos somewhere that one can visit and , adopt?

I mean, yeah, vaguely I understand it but my shivers came from the knowledge that somewhere in this brave new world people can actually go shopping for babies instead of making their own. I am trying to adjust to this concept.

I think Bush is right on about fetal stem cell research and I like how he's been firm and forthright about it. We really don't need to go there and further there is no reason on God's earth why our tax dollars should support such research. People seem to forget that the man is not BANNING research, just denying federal funds for it.

[stopem]

Hmm I am in central and NBC has local news.

[stopem]

Are federal funds used for the "adopting" of the embryos?

[Bahbah]

I am in central and NBC has local news.

Perhaps local stations have the right to decide when they air these programs????

[philo]

Is Thomas E. Ricks a retired General or former Secretary of Defense?

Washington Post Pentagon correspondent

[Carolinamom]

President Bush also said that "these children are not spare parts." Succinctly says it all IMO.

[stopem]

Yup guess so, little annoying as I am not able to keep up with you all. ;)

...hoping Kristol will do the slap-down of Juan this morning.

[Bahbah]

I don't know the answer to that. I also don't know if they are used in creating them.
