Frank Gaffney and Colonel Hunt are worried like I am about this. Glad to see Gaffney bring up the prison chaplains.

The guy just creeps me out. Sounds like Louis Farakhan (I don't know how to spell his nam) when he goes into his anti-war anti-bush rants.

Turning this into a war against a sect of Islam-- while reasonable-- is a nightmare for this campaign. I hope we wrap this up very quickly because this story probably has real legs.

What are the lefties going to say about this.

If it is true, this will be interesting how the press handles this.

Thank God no one was killed!!

That upset father yesterday was out of control. He wasn't just upset about losing his son. He is probably one of those parents that hoped his kid could get a free ride at taxpayer expense, but never have to face the reality of their decision to be in the military.

I just saw CNN's Aaron Brown interview the dad of a fallen soldier. The dad tried to make a final comment that protest should stop and people should support Bush, troops etc.

That skunk Brown just gave him a condescending sounding very brief answer and switched him off.

There is no question that the militant Muslims recruit in our prisons. One of the most frightening aspects of these people is how they use our freedoms against us.

Rita was not spinning anything. She was repeating what had been posited by a military analyst in one of the previous segments.

It's because we aren't prepared to face this problem. We have lots of these crazy Muslims in the country and they can cause serious harm to our national security if we declare war on them. We all hate the Nation of Islam, but we don't need a war against them. They are scattered all over and they are totally melted into the mainstream of society.

Apologies if this is a repeat (can't keep up with you if I leave the room for just a bit):

CNN reporting from an embedded journalist that three tents were hit and when the officers who could walk came out of the tents, they were under gunfire attack. They also reported two other soldiers are missing. Four grenades were missing and they think only 3 were used in each of the 3 tents.

BIG news: Approx. 15 minutes after after this attack, a scud attack happened at this same camp. They don't know if it's linked. I hear them on Fox now saying they don't think it is. Not bright to make that assumption, IMO
