I simply will not listen to Lantos- just hit mute.
He has an overblown intellect, utterly lacking in character.

Maybe if Petreus rolled his R's a little, he'd get some traction.

Anyone else notice that these are really softball questions???
The Dims REALLY have no idea what or how to deal with these reports... they are not only fishing, they are at a loss as to how to spin this in their favor!
Given how deeply Iran is in the mix of messing with Iraq, Iran CLEARLY has to be dealt with.
He asks of Iraqi leaders might turn to Iran for help, What an IDIOT, Iran is out to take OVER Iraq, make no mistake about it, Iran WILL step in if there is any sort of power vacuum, and it has stated so. “The Iraqi leadership recognizes the threat Iran poses” says the Ambassador.

Lantos is quoting reporters.

Petraeus’s answers
Aren’t dying “last-chancers”
Lantos’ s been hit by a mortat.

Crocker is doing pretty good. Lantos and the Dems are more interested in propaganda as well! Hell.... OBL has their talking points down pat....LOL!!
To: tiredoflaundry
It’s actually an enormous testament to the strengths of our system that the nation continues to survive and prosper with such compromised filth such as Lantos in positions of power.

Crocker made a point about erroneous assumptions that Shi’a Iraqis would gravitate toward Iran simply because they are Shi’a. Iraqis are Arabs, not Persian.

Ambassador is also delineating the differences between Iraq and Iran. Iraq = Arab. Iran = Persian, and that difference is greater to them than the difference between Men and Women. That is my charachterisations.
Hunter up!

Dontcha just love the mute button?
To: sageb1
I thought that was a great answer: the Iranians just want a photo-op with the US while continuing their terrorist ways. So much for GrannyNanny’s headscarf-wearing visit to Syria.
