I told them that I hope my son in law can salute him as commander in chief.

Four anti-war protesters were arrested for disorderly conduct. One of them, who was not named, is being taken to George Washington Hospital “due to complaint of injury” and is also charged with assault on a police officer.

Don’t know how fast he was tapping but I did note he had a wide stance.

THE DEMS ARE THE ONES THAT GIVE THEM TICKETS INTO THE HEARINGS!!!

The Rats are welcome to these vermin. I never tire of reminding the Dims, that I rarely meet, that they are no better than the swarm of angry apes that do the Rat's bidding.

Code Pink ejected on camera is great for the uninformed public. Wonder when that guy with the pink tiara will be hauled out. Pitiful people for sure.

It's very apparent.....the Republicans are the adults and the Democrats are the juvenile delinquents.

I wonder if the folks who are bringing us this circus (the Dems and C-Span) will be "redacting" the tape and transcripts of these hearings.

Lantos looks tired and bored. I'd guess he is tapping his feet to keep himself awake.

Crocker is putting me to sleep though. Not as stirring a the General.

Agree, tho I suspect it is the type of strategery one learns in diplomat school.

Actually, I like Crocker. He has made some pretty good points about the previous environment that Iraqis are having to recover from.

[the chairman is telling them that they will be prosecuted under the law. “We will not allow it”.]

BUT, he has allowed it totally and enthusiastically since the start. He should have ordered them shackled and drug out by their feet at the start!

What Crocker is saying has far more importance and impact than Petraeus’ report. It shoots the Dems out of the water in terms of their charge that there is no political success and the outlook for achieving it, bleak. This is really the strongest argument for staying there.
