Face it, collectivists can't help themselves. They start out with "groupism" every time they try to "think" about anything.

More GOP seats in 2006. Bring it on RATS !

Polish her pumps . . . sheesh!

I don't think she deserves to clean Condi's mucking-out boots (if she has any) with a toothbrush.

She should really scare the dems by announcing (in 2 years) that she is going to be the first African-American woman to run for president. Then us racist, gun toting gay bashing bigots should scare them even more by nominating her.

WoW! Thanks for that incredible collection of links!

Babs, how do you mean "losing constituents?"

See my post -- great minds, etc. Either that, or you're channelling me!

A Republican like Arnold, could defeat Boxer.

Republicans should target to defeat her.

And they should start working on it now.

[Republican Wildcat]

"I'm losing constituents every day because of that war," said Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif. "She was the key cheerleader. I hold her and this administration responsible for that."

Pathetic, unprofessional, and stupid.

[Republican Wildcat]

The RNC better have these hearings recorded for campaign ads.

[John Lenin]

Maybe the RATS are counting on Muslim immigrants to fill the void when blacks leave the party. This is getting pathetic on their part.

[BibChr]

That works for me.

In a sane state, she would have been politically slaughtered in the last two elections. The margin of victory would have been double-digits.

But then, that presupposes a decent candidate. But even otherwise, a sane electorate would have rejected her in favor of her vanilla, spiritless, but at least rational opponents.

Not that I have an opinion, of course.

"Reporting for Duty", I suspect, is not on his agenda next week. There must be a few more countries he can visit before Jan.20.

If he does "show", we're going to have so much fun on the Live Thread! LOL

Nah, I actually expect Kerry will act rather civilly during the hearings, reporting on his urgent consultations with Jacques and Tony, and wondering why we can't be loved.

Boxer, on the other hand, will be her usual screaming banshee self. Rice will do fine, presenting a sterling defense of the decision to invade Iraq and weaving it into the larger WOT. Boxer is one of those people who say they are anti-fascist, but wouldn't lift a finger to oppose bin Laden or Hussein if their lives depended on it.

By the way, I never saw that pic of Condi in pads and helmet before. Cute.

The person to watch is Obama. He's going to act as the Conscience of Black America here, which is going to be embarrassing to everyone else, but will be eaten up by the black liberals in TV Land who think that Rice got the NSA job on her back. Don't think that Condi doesn't know this; Obama is auditioning for Hillary and needs to make Condi look bad.

Boxer will do about as well against Rice as the Sisters of the Immaculate Conception against the Steelers.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

I'll see you on the Live Thread, and we'll both watch the Preeners (as Howlin calls them) and the different roles play out. Kerry might feel threatened by Oboma since hethe new guy (and Black too!)be showcased. OTOH, Kerry did say that he was going to lead in the Senate, didn't he? Of course, he lies too, so we'll see.
