“There is now a lot of talk about ‘ethno-cleansing’ by the dhims,....”

What do they think will happen if we pull out? It will be a bloodbath. The dems don’t really care about ‘ethnic cleansing’. It is all an act for their base(Move On).

BTW...it looks like Hillary is trying to time her big appearance close to the evening news...(rolling eyes)

LOL - I bet the fur traders of the 1800s would’ve envied Sen. Nelson’s rug!

I seems that Graham thinks the odds of our children serving in a war zone are increased by our being in Iraq.

I beg to differ.

There is an increased chance of widespread war if we abandon the Iraqis, for we can be certain that the Iranians or Syrians (or Russians?) will invade their country.

Graham will have himself to blame for the American and foreign blood that will be shed.

Truman already brought about the deaths of 30,000 Americans in the first 30 months of the Korean War, because he had made the mistake of prematurely abandoning a young, unstable S. Korea in 1949.

I'm grateful that President Bush is not caving into the Senators who want us to prematurely pull our troops out of Iraq.

Dear Senators, please do not instigate a Korean War

Ok.....stupid question time. These people get “appointed” to committees, right? Who appoints them?

For the Dems, Harry Reid I believe

For the GOP, Mitch McConnell I think

(I think it’s the Majority and Minority Leaders who do the appointing)

It’s unfortunate that she probably can tell you more than you’d ever care to know about Britney, Lindsey, Paris and Owen. I have a few in my family, too. It does, however, prove to be helpful when playing trivia games at family get togethers.

There is now a lot of talk about ‘ethno-cleansing’ by the dhims, isn’t that what got us into Kosovo? And is anyone .itching about still being there?

First of all, is ethno cleansing a real word? Secondly about Kosovo? Here's the liberal line on that:

"Oh, that's different."

Don’t they fight over it?

“MY guy! NO, MY guy!”

Like that?

I still say he should pull those stars off his jacket and fire them, ninja like, at some of these people.

That would be WAY cool.

Maybe this is what they do in Congress all day—play “Wild West” and take turns trying to sharpshoot Nelson’s rug off. After the “Everybody Loves Raymond” reruns, that is.
