I haven't perused FR today, so I don't know if another Freeper laid this out. If so, sorry to pull a Biden. Either way, we need the Hannity's, Rush's and certainly the President in his debate Friday night to drive this point home.

Who said this?

But I do think that the more serious question going forward is, what are we going to do? I mean, we have three different countries that, while they all present serious problems for the United States -- they're dictatorships, they're involved in the development and proliferation of weapons of mass destruction -- you know, the most imminent, clear and present threat to our country is not the same from those three countries. I think Iraq is the most serious and imminent threat to our country. And I think they -- as a result, we have to, as we go forward and as we develop policies about how we're going to deal with each of these countries and what action, if any, we're going to take with respect to them, I think each of them have to be dealt with on their own merits. And they do, in my judgment, present different threats. And I think Iraq and Saddam Hussein present the most serious and most imminent threat.

Yes, sir.

Not George W. Bush or Dick Cheney.

Yes I noticed that "little" tidbit too. The lack of coverage on this is further evidence of the ignorant leftist MSM.

Cheney brought many great points out yesterday like the non-funding. Notice, the media is ignoring it today with the exception of Limbaugh and Hannity.

The RNC PR team could do a better job, as well.

The MSM is not ignorant. They are not covering the news against Kerry on purpose. They know exactly what they are doing, in undermining our country.

I know that its been pointed out before that Kerry/Edwards voted against the $187 Billion, but nobody has pointed out that this funding also included the WOT in Afghanistan. It would destroy Kerry if laid out properly by Bush Friday night and the major networks will be force to comment on it afterwards.

I agree, they have made the point about the supplies for the troops, now they need to hit the Afganistan point....hard.

Did they point out the funding votes with regard to funding the efforts in Afghanistan? If not, which Freeper has an inside connection with Sean and/or Rush?

Ofcourse they are ignorant (uninformed or unaware). They probably don't have a clue as to where the money is being spent.

I don't think so. I think it was a total of $187 BILLION. $60 Billion was for Afghanistan. Of the remaining $127 Billion, a large chunk was for re-construction. Thats what Cheney was pointing out when he mentioned the contributions from other countries: $14 Billion in pledges for the war, the cost of other countries military efforts which they are eating, and the huge amount of forgiven Iraqi debt (I forget the total, but I thought it was $60-80 Billion.
