Clinton's military

This must be what came out of the big Harlem meeting because they and the media are all trying to trump it up. Sorry, ain't gonna work. And what a bunch of idiots...you really think, in the middle of the war, that our President is going to go out there and talk about lack of preparedness. What a bunch of dips. Read that Rummy says 6 to 7 years to get it back to what it was. Clinton's military That's an oxymoron if their ever was one. Just ask anyone in the military!

[okiedust]

The "Clinton Military" is definitely a talking point, and ref Enron, look for the word "sunshine". I have heard it a couple of times this weekend and expect to hear it more as in:"look we aren't conducting a scandal mongering campaign here, all we want is some sunshine. Open up and let us know about any contacts and let things develope. It's oh so reasonable to conduct ourselves this way, why is anyone resisting this effort?"

CBS Democrat newsslut Rita Braver slipped in an unscheduled hit piece on the Bush Administration.

I saw that too. Friends of Dan Rather keeping up their campaign of Bush bashing. Goldberg was certainly right in his book, Bias: The press has an agenda and it doesn't involve telling the WHOLE truth.

"McAuful lied like a rug, and Timmy the Potato let him get away with it. Racicot was too nice. He called McAuful on his lies several times, but he did it in "Pubbie debate language".

I thought he wiped up the floor with McAullffie. He is going to do a great job! McAulffie looked like a smary snake oil salesman.

Although Bush's pubbies have ethics and know to keep government and business apart, I think Racicot is giving the DemocRATS a freebie issue by not cutting ties with his law firm that is lobbying for corporate clients. Being on their payroll while RNC is giving the Rats plenty of ammo. I know the RATS do it all the time (accept money in return for lobbying government decision makers, or under Clinton, making favorable decisions) and think nothing of it. But until the Republicans take off the kid gloves and give as good as they get from the Rats and their press cronies, they must maintain a "squeeky clean" image in all aspects of politics.

Wasn't it the Clinton Military that couldn't deploy a Company of Apaches to Kosvo, cause the pilots didn't have flying time or the unit didn't have spare parts.

Wasn't it the clinton military that forgot to reload its six guns (Cruise missles) and is actually holding up the campaign at this time?

[IVote2]

"Clinton ruined, wrecked, and practically dismantled the CIA. SEE NO EVIL author lays it at the feet of the INS, CIA, FAA, all agencies of government ignoring terrorism. 8 years of Clinton, boo hiss!!"

I agree with you. The damage the Clintons and their syncophants have done to this country won't be known in full for many years.

For example, the damage they have done to our children morality wise is going to be horrific in years to come.

"I'm a Republican, but you gotta git off this whole "blame CLinton" thing, I respect the truth...he may have been an immoral man, but...blah blah blah."

Which spineless RINO spewed that nonsense?! Osama bil Clinton has orchestrated the MassMurder of more innocent human beings that bin Laden could ever hope for...Hell YEAH, Blame Slick's Flaccid Buttocks!!

FReegards...MUD

I really liked your racehorse analogy. I think it was a fitting description.

[IVote2]

"Senator John Kerry WILL BE the 2004 Democrat Candidate for President."

HMMMMMMMMMM Perhaps.

I forsee Hill myself. (I hate THAT thought, and actually wouldn't mind at all if it's Kerry, because truthfully, I believe he is an idiot. I didn't see Kerry today, I turned it on too late.

Jen

[GWfan]

I am going to borrow okiedust's analogy here. At least the racehorse now has a jockey. It is still injured, but now at least it is being looked after. Again, thanks to okiedust.

[JulieRNR21]

I'm watching John Kerry on CNN Late Edition, and will take this opportunity to repeat my longstanding prediction....Senator John Kerry WILL BE the 2004 Democrat Candidate for President

I felt the same way after watching him....did you note how pleased he looked when he said he had no Enron contributions to return?

[Sueann]

In other words - if it didn't happen on his watch he's not responsible for how the dems acted - that should be comforting to the other dems. I see we have another one like Clinton who blames everything on others.

[YaYa123]

yes!!! Kerry couldn't resist a big ole grin when Blitzer told viewers he had no Enron contributions. I wonder if Kerry gave that tidbit to Blitz before the show and made him promise to use it.

Someone else's astute observation was right on. "Sunshine" is another democratic talking point. As in: "Come on Cheney, let a little sunshine in on your official Vice Presidential meetings". What that really means is, turn over every bit of documentation that we never required Hillary turn over, even though your VP office shields you from such congressional poking around, and her secret little coven of healthcare gurus wasn't.

[JulieRNR21]

Yep I'd bet Kerry did indeed 'feed' his lack of Enron funds to Mr. Potato.....'sunshine' redoux....the DNC talking points have made the rounds....LOL

[Sueann]

Whoa! I have never heard that before either. And ... you are right, what a legacy to have your own military hate you.

[Sueann]

Well, be amusing and tell CBS what you know about Enron (enlighten them) - it might change their minds if they find out a lot of people already know the truth. There's no use pushing a rumor if the truth is already out there.

[maxxie]

I agree. Bush deserves credit for assembling the finest group of leaders this country has seen since the last time these same people were in control.

[an amused spectator]

This is the company that employs Dan "Rather Not Tell the Truth" and Bobby "Purple Rage" Schieffer [who just received a National Press Foundation journalist of the year award for spewing his Pubbie-bashing lies]. Rita Braver knew EXACTLY what she was doing.

[an amused spectator]

Yes, and James Carville always looked like a foaming, out-of-control buffoon. That sure helped get Clinton out of office, didn't it? And I hear that Clinton the laughing-stock can only get 100 large for speeches these days.

McAwful needs to be freeped into the ground. I've heard that he's as bold as brass, though.
