Daschle lashes out at Bush for 'failed' diplomacy

Cnn.com ^ | March, 17, 2003 | cnn.com

[Adams]

Once again, the minority leader has become "saddened".

What a nitwit. Like clintoon's "diplomacy" toward saddam made any difference.

Let's all join together and watch as this fool's ratings plummet even further...

[McLynnan]

"I'm saddened," Daschle, D-South Dakota, said

I'm saddened all flights into Baghdad have been canceled. I'd be happy to pay his way so he can meet face to face with Saddam and show his superior diplomacy skills.

[Shermy]

It seems to be a Democratic talking point. Loretta Sanchez was saying the same thing yesterday.

[LiteKeeper]

And Clinton succeeded???

[Dane]

"I'm saddened," Daschle, D-South Dakota, said in a speech to the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. "Saddened that this president failed so miserably at diplomacy that we're now forced to war. Saddened that we have to give up one life because this president couldn't create the kind of diplomatic effort that was so critical for our country. But we will work, and we will do all we can to get through this crisis like we've gotten through so many."

Sheesh Tommy, now you have gotten 95% of next weeks Oscar winners mad that you revealed thier scripted "acceptance" speeches a week early.

I just saw Daschle on TV uttering those words and it made me want to scream. Actually, I DID scream! The only thing that surprised me is that he didn't say, "I am deeply troubled", which is his usual mantra. I am so sick of this guy I'm on the verge of an uncontrolable case of projectile vomiting.
He is so partisan, it's disgusting.

[headsonpikes]

The miserable little puke was right at home with the Government snivel servant crowd, undoubtedly anti-war Dems, who think the State exists only to provide them sustenance.

[SMEDLEYBUTLER]

Dashole

[Right_in_Virginia]

"Saddened that this president failed so miserably at diplomacy that we're now forced to war.

Well, if the idiot Dasshole is "saddened" by the president's diplomacy...can we surmise that the moron is feeling suicidal over France's diplomacy?

Up the meds, Dasshole. Up the meds.

[Lurkus Maximus]

Is anybody else as disgusted and angry at this guy as I am??!! Here we are about to go to war, and all he can do is criticize our Commander-in-chief! Didn't he do enough of that before we got to this point? Once this is over, we must, repeat MUST, keep what these traitorous dems have done in the face of the american people; especially at election time. Let's have their actions haunt them and put them so far back all they will be able to whine about will be how the elections were unfair and they weren't able to get their message out.

Well, at least I fell better.

[goldstategop]

The Democrats are great for one thing though: comedic relief.

[Trust but Verify]

Like the 'Toon, when Little Tommy One-Note comes on the set, the channel suddenly changes. Life is just too short.

Put all these losers on a suicide watch.

[hilaryrhymeswithrich]

I, for one, hope that Dash-hole and other libs continue to make these kinds of statements because it will be amusing beyond anything imaginable to watch them try to shake their own words when the truth comes out. You go Tom, keep helping my side.

[fuente]

Buh-bye, t-Tom!

[IronJack]

Saddened that we have to give up one life because this president couldn't create the kind of diplomatic effort that was so critical for our country.

Saddened because this president hasn't learned how to grovel before tinhorn dictators and besmirch the reputation of the greatest nation on earth.

But we will work, and we will do all we can to get through this crisis like we've gotten through so many."

"Including the myriad crises we Democrats created then blamed on the Republicans."

[Trust but Verify]

Well, at least I fell better.

Hope you didn't get hurt!

[cardinal4]

Im willing to bet that Daschle gets led around by the nose by Hillary. Having said that, Daschle sucks.

[IronJack]

"If military action is necessary, the fault will clearly be Saddam Hussein's," Lieberman said.

Note to Sen. Lieberman: Call Daschle's office. He's apparently a little confused on this issue.

[Diogenesis]

"Let them laugh for NOW.
You and I still control a thousand stolen FBI files,
and because of them there never has been
AND NEVER WILL BE accountability for us.
They won't even go after Billy Bulger (D, Boston).
First, eliminate my competition, then go after the President."

[Political Junkie Too]

Daschle's definition of failing miserably at diplomacy is "not giving in to the demands of others." In other words, Senate Republicans have failed miserably at diplomacy towards Democrats regarding the Estrada nomination and partial birth abortion because they won't give in to Democrat demands.

It is true what they say about Daschle, that he turned the Democrat party into a "whatever Bush wants, we're against it" party.
