I like what you've said here and would go one step further.

The Republicans control the House. How the hell did this commission get legs at this time in an election year.

The House leadership is about as impotent as any group of people I have ever seen.

I agree completely. If this is what is means to control Congress then no thank you. These really to pull their heads out and play hard ball.

I disagree! Have you checked out the SENATE LEADERSHIP lately. They are 'hands' down the most cowardly bunch of RINOS ever. The liberal Bob Dole makes these guys look like Socialists.

Other than the Senate leadership one supposes.

Hey D1!

Not to disagree (obviously disagreeing here...) BUT, when you said:

Ever thought that what we have here is "terrorism" being debated and specifically 9-11 where Bush truly shines. By "yielding" to the left for a kangaroo court oops..."commission" the war and terrorism is in the public eye...a war Kerry voted for (before voting against the funding).

As crappy as the RATS get, it is better this fight than the fight on the economy (where the RATS talk down the economy...this is only a second tier sidebar now).

We're doing great here...

YOU critical of the GOP? Hard to believe. Of course, you don't have a clue so maybe that explains it.

The problem I have is this stupid commission is trying to write the history book version here of what happened.

I think they have attempted Clinton legacy building here.
Bush bashing and skepticism of his every move also is here.
From what I have read though, Bush in fact did great.
This was a "SURPRISE" attack. If we were not surprised, then this would have been prevented. But never before have terrorists taken over a plane to use them as a weapon of mass destruction.

They also had reports that some summit was a likely target of terror at that time, not NY.
