Brief article. Appears kossacks started testing the “Betray-us” thing back in June.

"Duncan Hunter needs to run for President... this guy is amazing"

I gather you don't know that he is running?

Or was that a little sarcasm on your part that I missed?

“That’s a relief to hear.

But what do you want to bet the MSM gives the most soundbit time to Lantos?”

No question about that, but it will have no impact. Somebody should tell Lantos that he expired years ago :-)

LOL My thoughts exactly.

If they can’t run a hearing, they can’t run the country.

They’re too in love with the sound of their voice for that to ever happen.

Even MSNBC now saying Move-on went too far, overplayed hand with ad and hearing disruptions.

Mathews says group, who he said helped clinton get away with his behavior, went way over the line, totally partisan, have to treat general with respect-dems need to push back at end of the day (against move-on)

When chrissy mathews is after a lib group, you know they went too far.

Microphone fixed-call to order by chair

No, it’s not a coincidence. It is a conspiacy and was deliberately done

Skelton was really pissed off. Did you catch who it was that asked him to remove the distracters?

5 minute break to fix microphone

Big break for our side ... now the entire focus will be on what Petraeus has to say, without the miasma of Democrat bloviation to obscure it.

This needs a congressional investigation... hah!
The moonbats were there at the invitation of some congressmember, I’m sure, probably Lantos.
If it were a tech problem, why do the congresscritters mics work, and the General’s don’t?

Thanks for responding. I'm just trying to assess if it's a positive or negative nickname.

More or less it was the chairman cussing at the tech difficulties with the Mic’s and because of the idiot protesters who were disrupting the hearing. 5 got arrested I hear. Or at least thrown out.

About to start again here.
