"I think Sen. Daschle clearly articulated the French position," said Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Pa.,...

LOLOLOL! This deserves repeating. We need to start refering to Dashole as the gentleman from the state of Alsace.

Daschle's next job can be the warm-up act for the Dixie Chicks.

"Wherever you are on the war, one way or another, you have to know that America deserves better leadership in how we disarm Iraq," said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.

Right, like the leadership shown by the impeached former president in his eight years in office. He lobbed a couple of cruise missiles into the sand and didn't even try to keep any inspectors there after 1998.

"Fermez la bouche, Monsieur Daschle."

I looked this up in my French-English online dictionary:
Literally: "Close the mouth, Mr. Daschle".
Not so literally: "SHUT UP, MR. DASSH*LE!"

Daschle's comments just before the summit caused an uproar in the Senate and a sharp rebuke from the White House, who called his words a "disappointing departure from the longstanding bipartisan tradition of the Senate majority leader when it comes to American foreign policy, particularly on the eve of a major international trip."

Oops, I think somebody goofed. Daschle's so far in the minority he may fall off his step stool.

I have been saying we should all do this! Man, Rick Santorum is a real great Senator. I am envious of my friends across the border in PA. I wish we could find someone like him for NJ. He's so good, I think he could win here.

Little Tommy Dazhole is saddened that he is a moron. I wish I lived in his home state so I could Not vote for his dumaz. I hate it when one of my cat's Daschles in the litter box and doesn't cover the Daschle, it stinks to high heaven.

Bug-eye could just as easily be talking about Daschle.

This is an outrage. He must resign his leadership position. We can't have the leader of a party making statements like this in time of war. He needs to move to the back benches.

It is "brazen and political" for a party chairman to be responding to a national security issue "with such divisive and political language," responded Daschle spokesman Jay Carson.

The “I know you are, but what am I?” defense.

They need to use Daschle's words against him from '98 after Clinton signed the regime change Iraqi Liberation Act resolution. Daschle: "Look, we have exhausted virtually all our diplomatic effort to get the Iraqis to comply with their own agreements and with international law. Given that, what other option is there but to force them to do so? The answer is, we don't have another option. We have got to force them to comply, and we are doing so militarily."

This is the last line from one ot today's WSJ R&O Op-eds - "Daschle's French Accent"

The next time Mr. Daschle says he wants to "work with the President," at least we'll know which country's President he's referring to.

May have been posted elsewhere today but you gotta love that!

I agree. We need to knock that little squirt off his little stool and put him back in his high chair.

Look at who is actually the architect of US diplomacy. It is the Secretary of State, Colin Powell.

First, Daschle alienates Hispanics (via Estrada). Now he attempts to alienate blacks by berating the highest ranking black person in the Administration.

Incredible stupidity on Daschle's part.

So typical of the Dems. . .they come out figting that it is the Repubs who are unpatriotic!

These people will sell #--* for gold; but don't think even their 'own' will buy this wagon load.

Didn't anybody ever tell you that Colin Powell isn't really black? He's just an Uncle Tom, according to the left-wing whackos.
