I cannot believe this traiterous scum of a man, had the audacity to show up at the homecoming of my unit from Iraq.
Perhaps he was there to celebrate the death of the three
"NAZIS" in out unit who gave their lives in defense of his freedom to be an a$$hole.

Please Mr. President, you cannot let this stand.

I wish it said, White House Castrates Durbin for Remarks

That would require Durbin to grow two things he doesn't have.

Whooaaa, I thought it the headline said "castrates" Durbin. That would be real cowboy diplomacy and no one is more deserving than Durbin.

I think a week spent aassiting the guards in Guantanamo would do a lot to cure Durbin's attitude problem.


I think a week spent being guarded for treason in Guantanamo would help his attitude problem.

Exactly. Bush laced into the Dems as "obstructionists" the other night but far stronger words are needed about treason on the Left (and accomodation from RHINOs). The White House must return fire and with disproportionate force.

You'd think our side would have this kind of moxy, not being hamstrung by being quite as morally corrupt as are their opponents.

No, because they don't have the MSM covering for them.

"Turban" Durbin calls Camp Delta a "death camp." Nobody has yet been killed at Camp Delta. But millions of babies have been slaughtered in our country's abortion clinics with the connivance of Durbin's Democrat party.

How can something be "very true"? Are there degrees of truth? (Sorry, philosophy major!)

Mr. Durbin is either being very ignorant, stupid or a fibber when he says this. The GITMO detainees aren't covered by the Geneva Convention.

Correct. The GITMO detainees are indeed not covered by the Geneva Convention. But they are in some kind of "Gray Area", legally speaking. And as we all know, liberal-democrats love to wallow in "Gray Areas". So I guess Sen. Durbin is happier than a pig in sh-- right about now.

The bottom line is that the Democrats are taking a huge risk by playing the Gitmo card. Their party is already considered "soft" on crime. If they don't already have a reputation of being soft on terrorism, they soon will.

I'd like to hear from Bush or Cheney on this one, not the spokesman.

If so they will go out of their way to emphasize that Islam is a religion of peace. Yea, that peaceful arena in the Sunni Triangle that this president won't wipe out ergo our men get killed in the name of political correctness.

I've heard only that Roberts' willingness to release seven names from the documents Dems had requested was rejected by Dodd. Dodd raised the bar again. Roberts realizes dems are not interested in getting the info.

posted this on a different thread, but I have this suggestion: honey and fire ants. Just the nether regions for a start, with arms tied to a tree.

Tied to the tree. A small slit in the belly and slowly pull the innards out 10 to 15 feet so they can be watched. Honey is not required. The ants will be there.

Why, they can't upset the country club atmosphere you know. They'll all be having cocktails and cracking jokes together. It's just politics

It's just the "Two-Party Cartel". I'll bet they all can come together to vote in a pay raise.

Does anyone think this vile person should be in the U.S. Senate leadership? At the minimum the Democrats should ask him to step down.

Dems will continue to be elected, the goal today is for a US Senator to ask for Durbin to resign, if, a big if, that request were to be picked up by international media then our enemies would at least know that some here will not cave to them.

Bush needs to go on national TV and hold a press conference and publicly castigate all these idiots who are smearing our soldiers

Include our security with our open borders & tell us that he will close them. Finally tell us that no more is Islam a religion of peace. ( I can fantasize can't I?)
