Bump!

Would you dig up a mile of sewer pipe...........????

(finished with a very nasty ol Southern line about when someone is fanatically attracted to a woman.,..and I'm not even gonna hint at it beyond the clue left but I'll bet I'm not the only one that knows that one)

Speaking of bathwater....there was a very famous Latin song by Juan Luis Guerra about wanting to be a fish in a woman's bathwater or aquarium or something along those lines....so I guess that is a common theme.

Have you tried roses or a card?

[wardaddy]

I myself am trying to be practical right now with Arnold and my view between far right cultural extremist that I am versus pragmatism. It ain't easy.

Who could replace W.....I have no clue yet. Frist was mentioned but so far he's sort of milquetoast...and he's a homeboy.

[SAMWolf]

Who would you trust with the safety of our Country?

I can't believe any person with the title "National Security Advisor" still has a job after the 9/11 debacle.

I can't believe someone pounding away on a keyboard with 20/20 hindsight has the nerve to insult her for not being psychic. How pathetic!

[MEG33]

This is a terrific article.Her expression of her faith is truly magnificent.May God continue to bless Condi.

[VRWCmember]

Nice post sanchmo, but it is missing something.

There, that's better.

[Coop]

Who could replace W

George Allen (R-VA)

"She seemed to get upset when she was asked if the administration had any sort of warning concerning September 11th".

It could be that she is more than a little tired of having to answer this asinine question endlessly from the same bunch of lib reporters.
Do they really expect her to change her answer some day and say, "Oh yeah, we knew that was gonna happen way ahead of time, we just decided that we didn't care"
Give her a break, she's human and can only tolerate so much stupidity without getting a little testy.

The Good =

RICE aids our Commander-in-Chief in Time of War

The BAD =

HILLARY fights to replace our Commander-in-Chief in Time of War

...ASAP

I really like and respect Condi, but still take exception to that condemnation of the security wall. Condemning such a passive form of defense seemed like a Powell moment, especially in light of the UN's snide comparison to the Berlin wall. Sure it isn't perfect, and of course they'll just lob mortars over it, but at least it's passive defense.

[wardaddy]

I'd give DeLay 1 year as King.

Is that too "far right"..lol?


Seriously....W sort of chews up all the scenery right now after 9-11 and so frankly, I don't think anyone has surfaced yet.

Who would have thought Dean would be leading the Demons a year ago.

I like Fred Thompson's demeanor but he doesn't have the fire anymore to campaign.

Little Jeb?..."not gonna happen" as daddy would say.

I need to see more about George Allen.

Believe it or not....i think Rudy Guliani (even though I disagree with his social liberalism) could win....he is one of the few real Yankees that white southerners and mountain folk would vote for.

But, while I might think it's ok to knowingly vote in a RINO like Arnold in Kali because I think that's all who can get elected. I don't think that is quite true nationally.

Someone I agree with (100%) can't get elected dogcatcher but a slightly right of center Pub like W can.

You've given me something to think about.

"I can't believe any person with the title "National Security Advisor" still has a job after the 9/11 debacle."

Because you don't see it as an atrocity...you see it as a debacle in which our oversized, stupid, oil dependent, nation-building government was given a timely warning of the time, type and places of the attacks but didn't act.

[Corin Stormhands]

George Allen bump.

[cake_crumb]

"She seemed to get upset when she was asked if the administration had any sort of warning concerning September 11th. Someday we'll find out what that was all about"

She was probably sick and tired of repeating herself to idiots who believe that asking the same people the same question over and over will eventually result in their getting the answer they want rather than the simple truth.

As someone who tends to go ballistic about the third time I'm forced to repeat myself, I sympathize with her and find her self-control commendable.

Please put me on your Pro Coalition,anti-wanker ping list, please.

"Who would you trust with the safety of our Country?"

No contest!

Sandy Berger is gone.

[Coop]

LOL. I almost pinged you on that post, too.

[My2Cents]

With a few breaks, the Democrat Party will be moribund by 2008. Condi as the GOP nominee will be like pulling the plug on them for good, and consigning them to the ash heap of history.
