<p>The dispatch of Saddam Hussein's sons to hell (unless Ol' Scratch turned them away to preserve standards) offers a grim preview of what we can expect in the '04 presidential campaign. Even Bill Clinton is covering his eyes.</p>
<p>Some of the embittered Democrats can't bear it that George W. is getting a lift, just when he needs it most, with the deaths of Uday and Qusai. Suddenly the war in Iraq and by extension the larger war on Islamist terror is back in razor-sharp focus.</p>

ACROSS THE COUNTRY Republicans and conservatives are asking each other the same basic question: Has the other side gone crazy? Have the Democrats totally flipped their lids? Because every day some Democrat seems to make a manic or totally over-the-top statement about George Bush, the Republican party, and the state of the nation today. "This republic is at its greatest danger in its history because of this administration," says Democratic senator Robert Byrd. "I think this is deliberate, intentional destruction of the United States of America," says liberal commentator Bill Moyers. George Bush's economic policy is the "most radical and...

Yes, that's right. A number of Democratic politicians and liberal columnists are outraged at the killing of Saddam's two sociopathic sons, outstanding Iraqi citizens whose only sin was to engage in their favorite leisure-time hobbies...raping, torturing and murdering their fellow citizens at will. Odai and Qusai's outraged American defenders insist that U.S. forces didn't try hard enough to prevent the unnecessary "assassination" of Saddam's victimized kids. Instead of allowing Odai, Qusai and their associates to gun down the American soldiers at will (as was their duty, evidently, under international law) American soldiers responded with an overwhelming show of American firepower,...

They were split over Saddam, but Dems are united against the president. GIVE JOHN KERRY CREDIT. It takes guts to accuse someone of lying when that someone has said essentially what you have been saying for a decade. Which is what John Kerry did last week when he told a gathering of antiwar Democrats in New Hampshire that President George W. Bush "misled every one of us" in making the case for war in Iraq. Kerry called for a full investigation--a rather peculiar request from someone who sounds so certain about its outcome. Kerry isn't alone. More and more Democrats...

It’s The Lies Tom!Daschle Lies to Russert About Attacking President on Brink of War Remember when Tom Daschle attacked President Bush just as the war was beginning claiming that the President had "forced" us into war (must have forgotten about Saddam Hussein’s thirty years of atrocities.) Now he is hoping to cover up his outrageous attack by lying to Tim Russert. Appearing on NBC's Meet the Press Daschle said, "If I would have known that the president was going to act as quickly as he did I probably would have avoided making the statement at that time." Huh? Is Daschle...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The oldest voice in the U.S. Congress rose on Wednesday to denounce as misguided President Bush (news - web sites)'s march to war with Iraq (news - web sites). "Today I weep for my country," said West Virginia Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd. "No more is the image of America one of strong, yet benevolent peacekeeper. ... Around the globe, our friends mistrust us, our word is disputed, our intentions are questioned. "We flaunt our superpower status with arrogance," Byrd said, adding: "After war has ended the United States will have to rebuild much more than the country...

Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle (D-SD) simply keeps on talking, and in doing so keeps on hurting his party. Daschle is clearly a man on the edge, and has been for some months. His comments, especially at this time, are increasingly reckless and intemperate - as all the audio below proves. It's time for Daschle to step aside and gather himself, rather than continue to rip our leaders when our men and women are in harm's way. Under Daschle's leadership, people are going to start calling the Democrats "the Domestic French." They want to have it both ways. They...

So, it's going to be war. In his somber but forceful address to the nation, President Bush "showed his cards," as he likes to say, and now everybody else is showing theirs, too. Within 24 hours of the president's announcement our friends rallied to our cause, including the Japanese, the Israelis, the Australians and several East European nations. The Turks turned on a dime and announced they were going to do everything they could to help out. Prime Minister Tony Blair told his party and his parliament that the United Kingdom must stand "shoulder to shoulder" with the United States...

It did not take long for America's and Great Britain's fiercest critics to denounce the allied ultimatum to Saddam. Chirac of France exclaimed: "Whether it concerns the necessary disarmament of Iraq or the desirable change of regime in this country, there is no justification for a unilateral decision to resort to force." Schroeder of Germany announced: "My question was and is: Does the degree of threat stemming from the Iraqi dictator justify a war that will bring certain death to thousands of innocent men, women and children? My answer was and is: No." And Daschle of South Dakota joined in:...

The minority leader's attack on George W. Bush puts him in the dubious company of Charles Lindbergh. SENATOR TOM DASCHLE'S attack on President Bush on Monday was unprecedented for the leader of the opposition party in Congress, but high-profile Americans have a long history of getting it wrong on matters of war and peace. Most famous among these is Charles Lindbergh, who help found the America First Committee in September of 1940. Lindbergh barnstormed for isolationism, blasting the British as he went, demanding that America "not dissipate our strength, or help Europe dissipate hers, in these wars of politics and...

<p>House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert yesterday said Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle's criticism of President Bush came "mighty close" to giving comfort to U.S. adversaries and undermining the president as he headed toward war.</p>
<p>"Senator Daschle has spent more time criticizing the leadership of President Bush than he has spent criticizing the tyranny of Saddam Hussein," Mr. Hastert said.</p>

<p>WASHINGTON -- With President Bush on the brink of ordering the United States to attack Iraq, many Demo-cratic members of Congress on Monday muted their opposition and began to rally around U.S. troops at their battle stations. But Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle blamed Bush for leaving no option but war to disarm Iraq and oust President Saddam Hussein.</p>

Speaker of the House Hastert: Regarding Senator Daschle's Comments on the War Tue Mar 18 2003 13:16:55 ET "I'm saddened that the president failed so miserably at diplomacy that we are now forced into war," Senate Minority Leader Thomas A. Daschle (D-S.D.) told union workers yesterday. (Washington D.C.) Speaker of the House J. Dennis Hastert responded to the above comments of Senator Daschle today: "I was disappointed to see Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle's comments regarding the upcoming military action in Iraq.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Homeland security is President Bush's issue, but his Democratic rivals are determined to take it back. Presidential hopefuls Sens. John Kerry and Joe Lieberman criticized the Bush administration on Tuesday for a budget they say inadequately funds first responders and others responsible for the nation's defense. Kerry, in a speech to the International Association of Firefighters, proposed a $50 billion program in which members of the National Guard and AmeriCorps would be trained for homeland security and the domestic intelligence system would be overhauled. "Thus far the federal government has provided too little support, provided too little...

Republicans are for a change fighting back at obstructionist Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, who didn't fret over Bill Clinton's wag-the-dog wars but claims "this president failed so miserably at diplomacy that we're now forced to war." But it's Little Tommy who's the miserable failure, according to Republican National Chairman Marc Racicot, who denounced the South Dakota leftist's "divisive and brazen political posturing." White House spokesman Ari Fleischer today noted the hypocrisy of Daschle, who said in September, after President Bush pointed out that Democrats were putting politics ahead of national security, that "we ought not politicize this war."...
