Puff Daschle 'concerned' over Sept. 11 report (poor thang)

Don't you love these articles quoting every democrat president wannabe? Does Daschle think Bush KNEW about the attacks in advance and wasn't really surprised? These guys are so scummy. They care not an ounce about U.S. national security.

Rush knocked this story outta the park today. Time magazine reported the Clintonoid White House had the same warnings in 1998.

latching on for later reading

But Daschle said an investigation into the events prior to Sept. 11 should be expanded beyond the House and Senate Intelligence committees, perhaps to an independent commission similar to the one that investigated the Dec. 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor

Or, perhaps, the demoIDIOTs are looking for the own "Whitewater"? Of course, they thought Enrongate was it too.

Poor lil' Tommy, he is so pathetic!

Thanks for the post. You know, I really think this is going to backfire. People are not going to want to hear it. It's going to make Daschle look partisan at a time when a lot of the country still wants unity. I think the Democrats are making a mistake. In short, I say, Sen. Daschle: go for it! Keep saying stuff like that re the most popular President we've known in recent history.

Since September 11th, the administration has routinely announced non-specific terrorist threats and has been repeatedly criticized for doing so. Many critics have in effect said, "If you can't name the time and place, shut up, we don't want to hear about it." Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Awww, poor little Tommy. Let's hope it backfires in his face!

This morning while on my PC I said out aloud "he knew!" in disgust. A couple co-workers come over, one is a flaming liberal. I said "can you imagine, he knew in the summer that there was a hijacking possibility and didn't do anything! You know, the Transportation Secretary, Norm Mineta. Isn't he a Democrat? Not doing his job!"

The liberal co-worker is sputtering "well, uh, what can you do, nothing specific there in the alert." Ha-ha, love turning the tables on the dems.

[aristeides]

I wonder why Daschle didn't say he was "disappointed"?

[KSCITYBOY]

PEOPLE NEED TO LET THIS DIPSTICK DEMOCRAT THAT PLAYING POL WITH THIS ISSUE IS OVER THE LINE.

[JimVT]

Daschle, the little "D", and Gephardt the phart are once agains blowing smoke in their desperate attempt to make people think that the Dems amount to more than a hill of beans.

It has been mentioned several times....once again today by Dr. Rice, that the Senate and House Intel committes and the Senate and House leadership got pretty much the same briefings the Pres got before 9/11...... ........SO WHY DIDN'T THOSE PUTZES SOUND THE ALARM?????

[Freemyland]

Because if the deaths of a few thousand Americans is what enables him to weaken a popular Republican President, he isn't.

Give it a day or two, and he will be seen removing thus feet from his mouth, again for about the 1000 time.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Daschle's wife works for the airline industry. He knew, as she knew, that the airlines paid off the Dems. before election '96 to avoid making needed expensive security improvements at the nation's airports.

We can't expect the press to care about "fairness" or truth. They will never give a Republican President fair press...they didn't for Reagan and today's world is far more corrupt, people more cruel and immature.

We can spread the truth and work to inform enough people that, like in the case of Newsweek and Lewinsky/Clinton, the mainstream press can no longer remain silent without appearing the bigger fools...that took a year.

If you get Fox News Channel, Hannity & Colmes are having a RELIABLE SOURCE on their Friday show regarding what Clinton, Berger, Allbright and Reno failed to do when they had the chance. The reliable source is a democrat but he's sticking with the POTUS on this one.

From what I saw today, The Intelligence Committee needs a little name change. Any ideas freep friends? How about the Lack of Brains Committee? The dems are just going to get a backlash from this.

And, Puff has concerned me for a long time. The House does all the work and what for? Why are we paying Congressman to go to Washington if the Senate continues to DO NOTHING? Every time Puff is Puff, we lose out AND PUFF CONCERNS ME EVERY DAY.

[floriduh voter]

PRAY TELL, why didn't we investigate the first WTC attack in 1993, Somalia, the embassy bombings or the U.S.S. Cole?

Had these same continually elected dems called for investigations for those acts of war or had their potus taken his oath of office seriously, how would things stand today?

Catch Hannity & Colmes Friday night. This guy knows lots of stuff - he was on the radio Hannity this afternoon. FV

little tommy is asking for a little payback that is bigger than Dallas. The Linda D./Airline industry connection, that forked over 450,000 smackers to the Dems killed Gore's airline safety recommendations...pre 911.

Michael Medved just quoted a Rapid City, SD newspaper poll that showed SD residents supported Bush's policies over little homegrown tommy's by 49% to something like 35%.

He's losing support in his own state. If we can post that poll it just might start the ball rolling to defeat Johnson by Thune in this vital Senate 04 election. Then we can go to work and get evil, wicked, mean and Nasty on tommy in 04.

[floriduh voter]

Do you want to find that poll and do a thread or what? I don't know the Rapid City media. I'll be glad to bump and ping if you can do a thread for the "front page" here...
