who is MOAC? mother of all combovers?---i just got here

Well, we can all breathe easier that there's one substance Saddam does not yet have -- Minoxidil.

Re: Dashole...I said it earlier, I'll say it again...

I am GRATEFUL TO GOD that Albore wasn't elected!

[Terriergal]

Kofi Annan on now--the counsel members all reacted at lunch.

Where are you watching?

[fightinJAG]

Agreed, so agreed.

However, from the Iraqi perspective, all they know is that the US apparently LOVED a similar jerk who bonked a young intern in the Oval Office and the pantry sink, while on the phone with a congressman about sending ground troops into Bosnia.

So the Iraqis might be forgiven for believing that Ritter's troubles are a fabrication of the VRWC and, besides, it's all about sex.

You do know why the attack on Estrada, don't you ...??

It seems that during the 2000 election aftermath, Estrada wrote one of the legal documents which was put before USSC. Yep ... you got it - this whole thing is RETRIBUTION for Estrada's action.

How petty and childish can you get ...??

Congress critter who went to Baghdad is saying Powell didn't make a case.....on Fox.

[Mo1]

Dasole is now saying the burdon of proof is on Saddam's shoulders

Who is this nit wit un inspecter on MSNBC

[Humidston]

Excellent point. They must think leftist thought prevails in America.

[Terriergal]

Oh yes, that's very intelligent of the Iraqis to put Ritter forward

Maybe Ritter's behavior is normal for them.

[Dog]

Bibi will be coming up on Fox..

[Terriergal]

Does that mean to top off the gas tank and buy bread and milk?

Maybe gas will go down because Kuwait won't be shivering in their boots anymore if we go in to Iraq.

[Catspaw]

i'm waiting for Bibi. He'll be quite a contrast to the appeasers.

[SunTzuWu]

Phyllis Bennis/Institute of Policy Studies is the idiot. Shep Smith just asked if she listened to Powell today.

She said that what Powell showed was bad picutres, unclear film and some drawings. This is unacceptable to her.
Shep then askes her if she believes Iraq has mobile bio-weapon labs. Her answer?
"Well maybe if the US had some pictures."

Unbelievable.

The idea that North Korea would take advantage of any war we were involved in in the Middle East or Southwest Asia and begin its own military aggression has been part and parcel of U.S. military thinking for years. It's what is behind the "two major regional conflicts" doctrine.

No original thinking there, Scott.

[apackof2]

Will do!!

[Terriergal]

Thanks! My kid is getting really sick of watching news.

[Terriergal]

Ritter is currently in Japan, trying to stir up anti-American sentiment

Besides, the women over there in that part of the world have that *youthful* appearance.

[Dog]

I heard that the North Koreans announced the start up of their reactors at the exact moment Powell walked into the Security Council at 10 am this morning.....they are in kahoots with Iraq..

[ican'tbelieveit]

These people will not be happy until someone volunteers to die to provide them color photographs with a dated newspaper or some such nonsense. Even then they will say they are forged, even if the body of the person taking the photograph or in the photo is produced.

I have children and I do not want them to go into their adult lives living in fear of the next attack on the US. Let us deal with this now, as President Bush said, not put it off until the next generation.

How did Teddy Kennedy get to speak at the UN? What's up with that?

The post re Teddy daddy's appeasnik speech to the UN before WWII is priceless. I hope Rush can find a recording of that speech and play it along with Teddy's blah blah blah.
