Other groups linked to terrorism, such as Hamas and Hezbollah, he said, are much more active in supporting schools and providing financial assistance to families.

Hey Patty, there's your next hero!

[ChiMark]

Yeah and the kids learn how to blow up too! I wish I had that in school.

Q: What do Osama Bin Ladin and the Internation Population controllers have in common?

A: They "help" people by killing them.

[BOBTHENAILER]

Some thought her partisanship may have shown through there. These kids are pretty savvy."

You mean they saw her without clothes, when the media saw the fabulous trappings of lefitist gilded cloth?

[RANGERAIRBORNE]

I could walk out into the oilfield where I work, pick ANYONE at random, and he or she would be a better Senator than the moronic Patty Murray. Where do these idiot politicians come from? Is there a special vat of slime where they breed them, and send them out to destroy the country????

[McGavin999]

"He's been out in these countries for decades, building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day-care facilities, building health-care facilities, and the people are extremely grateful. We haven't done that.

Ms Murry is apparently unaware of the dismal plight of women in the countries Bin Laden "improved". Day care facilities!!!! In a country where women weren't permitted to work, even if they were widowed! Women weren't even allowed out of their houses, how can that woman be so ignorant and so, dare I say it, INSENSITIVE to women's issues.

Resign Murray, resign.

[Doctor Raoul]

At the time, the agency noted the U.S. was the largest single donor of assistance to Afghanistan, contributing about $115 million that year to improve health, water, sanitation and nutrition.

I thought Patty "nutcase" Murray said Osama was?

[Libloather]

And even some of the 40 or so world-history students found the statements a little off, according to the principal.

Way to go kids! The students are obviously smarter than their guest!

[beaversmom]

In an interview, Murray said her words weren't meant to be a major policy statement or a speech from the Senate floor, but rather a discussion about "an evil man."

Oh, now he's an evil man. I must have missed that part. From what I could see about her remarks, he sounds like a real life Santa Claus. Too bad he's not Catholic. They could have considered making a Saint out of him--right up there with Mother Theresa.

Poll asks if Murray should resign

Poll Link Here

[desertcry]

Down's syndrome patty murry is a known leftist, and we at FR know that liberal leftist are anti-American. Once in a while their hate for America surfaces so strong that even the left coasts see it. How long should America tolerate these scumbags?

[shortstop]

We now know where Murry-mom got her screen name.

[KansasCanadian]

Have no fear, our mainstream media will soon pick up on this and force her to resign for her "poor choice of words"

But first she needs to do an apology on BET

[watchin]

""What is important is that we have to have thoughtful debates and discussions in this country and raise questions and answer them without being pulled into some right-wing media frenzy," Murray said. "That is truly frightening to me. "

I wonder if she was as "frightened" about the "right-wing media frenzy" that destroyed Lott.

[Noumenon]

If that's Murray's set of criterion for a great humanitarian, should we not also hear her praise of:

1. Josef Stalin, who reduced hunger and suffering in his country. He did that by killing and starving millions, but how can we possibly be so judgemental?

2. Adolph Hitler, who certaily did wonderful things for the German economy of the day. Wow! Full employment, the Autobahn, schools for everyone (unless you were a Jew or a non-Aryan). And didn't he restore a sense of national pride? True leadeship by Murray's lights.

3. Benito Mussolini, who made trains run on time and 'organized' the Italian economy in a model that would make any Democrat proud. I mean, who's to say what's right and wrong when a leader like Mussolini has done so many wonderful things for his country?

4. Pol Pot, who, like good old Uncle Joe, also reduced hunger and suffering by killing off approximately one third of the Cambodian population. And let's not forget Pol Pot's contribution to reducing gun violence by instructing his cares to use hoes, pickaxes, shovels, axes and other farm implements to execute those nasty enemies of the state. Why this man is not in the HCI Hall of Fame, I just don't know.

5. Fidel Castro. What hasn't this man done? Free education (learn or else), free lobotomies (good Socialist ones, mind you) free medical care (just look as his handling of AIDS cases), 'outreach' missions to many other South American countries. Ms. Murray should be licking this man's boots. Oh wait. She already does. What was I thinking?

That's just a short list of those great humaitarians and contributors to human welfare that Ms. Murray for some inexplicable reason has overlooked.

[ClancyJ]

Gee - a little propaganda promoted here to school kids you think? More liberal infiltration of our schools to recruit more liberals of the future?

So nice that the democratic party is becoming known for this type of anti-America, blame America rhetoric propaganda. Even students notice the partisanship. Sure hope they know she is democrat - not republican.

I hope the democratic party keeps her. We can always use her as an example of the direction of the Democratic Party.

[Iowa Granny]

Another 'great find'. Thanx, again, for helping to keep this in the forefront.

My email to Patty Murray:

Like all Americans, I was disturbed by Senator Murray's comments [about bin Laden].

They were offensive, hurtful and wrong. Worst of all, they do not appear to be isolated remarks.

At a time when our country should stand as one, Senator Murray's comments serve only to divide.

We must continue to be a nation where people are united not only by the color of their skin, but by the content of their cause.

Americans deserve leaders who will stand up for the rights of all citizens and help our nation to move forward.

Do the right thing, Patty Murray, and resign from the Senate.

"Daniel Benjamin, a former staff member of the National Security Council, said radical Islamic groups have used social-welfare policies to improve their popularity.

"But I don't believe that's the reason why (bin Laden) is popular in the Arab world," Benjamin said, adding that bin Laden's primary appeal in the Middle East was instead his virulent anti-Americanism."

I think that about sums it up.

CowPatty doesn't get it.
