Wow, he gives us such confidence on national security. Yet another reason you can't trust Dems with foreign policy; its an afterthought to them.

I said it in 1992 and it bears repeating: Last month, the voters of the USA handed the car keys to a drunk driver. These leftists have NO understanding of the dangers facing the US. They see everything - and I mean everything - in terms of domestic power politics.
The situation involving this idiot Reyes reminds me of a joke that Spy Magazine (now defunct) played on several members of the incoming "class of 1992". (You remember 1992 - The Year of the Women, Bill Clinton's 43% solution, etc.) Anyway, they asked a few new members (Democrat leftists) questions regarding the ethnic cleansing in Fredonia and what should be done about it. The clueless jerks - Corrine Brown of FL stands out - proceeded to emote and complain that we should be doing more in Fredonia when, if they had any idea about the question, they should have answered that branding Firefly a war criminal was the correct action to take. Fredonia was the fictional country in the Marx Bros movie, Duck Soup. It's astounding that the country, once again, fell for the bullshit of the Dems/Leftists. (By the way, there aren't many good Republicans either. They're just Socialist-lite.)

did not know what Hizbollah was and incorrectly described al-Qa'eda as deriving from the Shia rather than Sunni sect of Islam.

And these are the people that the dumb vote voted for?

One would hope that Nancy Pelosi's decision to weaken national security in order to indulge her petty personal vendettas would come back to haunt her. There was a very capable person, senior on the committee, to step into this role, and Nancy Pelosi selected this idiot instead, because of some high-school-type girl-feud thing.

Frankly, The First Ever Woman Speaker Of The House Ever Ever has been a bit of a setback in the trend toward women in leadership positions. She has shown that she can't stand up to bullies by putting William "Cold Cash" Jefferson back on Ways & Means, can't abide capable underlings that might outshine her, like Steny Hoyer, and can't overcome petty personal jelousies against a capable woman like Jane Harman. Speaker Pelosi has demonstrated, on a national stage, all the prototypical "woman" behaviors that is said to make them poor leaders.

It's a question of dum or dummer.

Congresswoman Jo Ann Davis, a Republican who oversees the CIA's recruiting of Islamic spies, was also stumped when asked if she knew the difference between Sunnis and Shia.

This is really trite. What does it matter? They are Muslims. Both hate America. Both want to expel Israel from the Mideast. Both carry out the same crimes against non Muslims. It's like asking what's the difference between Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. The important thing to look for in our elected officials is to find out what side are they on.

If everyone would read FR daily, they'd be well informed on just about everything, and a lot sooner than if they went elsewhere for knowledge. I learn more here than I do practically anywhere else.

Well, the difference between the Sunnis and Shi'ites is this: The Sunnis want to kill us all with terrorist attacks, and the Shi'ites want to kill us all with nuclear weapons.
