"you go to war with the Army you have."-- D. Rumsfeld

"A good plan today is better than a perfect plan tomorrow"-- G.S. Patton

"Flexibility: It's the key to Air Power."-- old Air Force Axiom

"You innovate, you adapt, you overcome."-- "Gunny" Highway (Clint Eastwood) "Heartbreak Ridge"

So it has always been with the troops whether they are on the line or not and shall always be!

"did you read the rest of the article?"

True may not have read it all but I did.

And not only that, I've read the German Law involved.
It's simply a law written by lawyers to enable lawyers to dip into international pockets in order to fill their own pockets!
The Germans have declared that their courts can be used as a venue for prosecuting international war crimes.
CCR or anyone else could file in Germany cases against Saddam, Osama, those responsible for the genocide in the Sudan, Chirac for French troops slaughtering innocents in the Ivory Coast, or those responsible for the travesty in Beslan.
Why don't they persue those cases? Simple! There ain't no money to made on those cases! But take an American lawyer going after an American, now we're talking large $$ I wouldn't be surprised to see the junior John Boy signing on to this one once his Senate seat is officially gone in January.

btw, some of the major backers of CCR include the likes of Louis Farrakan, Lyndon LaRouche, Michael Moore and Sean Penn. Need I say more?

"The TV debates between Condi and the witch from NY would be priceless"

What "debates"? More a tongue lashing I will bet. Hitlery will come armed with a knife and Condi with a shotgun, if not a grenade launcher.

Where is Dr Rice not from?:
Born and raised in the South.
College degrees in CO.
PhD in IN.
College Provost on the Left Coast.

And Hitlery has to offer?:
A masters degree with a "secret" thesis.
A coattail rider from AR.
A carpetbagger in NY.

I dare say, it would be worse an episode than John O'Neill v. Ted Koppel and infinitely more fun to watch... :)

I'm all for Condi in '08. Who do we want as #2 on the ticket?

It's likely that John Edwards in enroute with papers to be filed against:

The golf ball manufacturer for producing a product that so easily goes out of control.

The SUV manufacturer for producing an SUV that it so easily thwarted from accomplishing such a simple task as getting out of a mere drainage ditch.

The engineers who designed a "drainage ditch" that could so easily trap a powerful SUV. Obviously, had the vehicle been a mere sedan, the results of said "trapping" could have been disasterous!

Bwahahahahahahahaaaa....

"The Secret Service duties ended for Kerry right after the election."

And it's a sure bet that all of those "sonofabitch" agents were packed and gone before the lights on the concession speech were turned off!

TH (she only used the K part for the political season) was likely even amazed at the absence of the fleet of armored SUVs that used to surround her and hers...

And probably even more dismayed that now she/they will have to travel to all the glamor spots in a mere Gulfstream rather than a personalized B-757. Oh, the ignominy.

A true ledge-end in her own time.

"What do you call these people... "Frost backs"?"

Perhaps "No!-Mads" ??

And in the good news...

60 million + U.S. registered gun owners did not commit a single gun related offense today.

"Even if I want a DVD recorder, I still need access to a VCR to save all of my tape based programming."

Hmmm...
About a year ago at Sears I bought a Sansui VHS/DVD deck (model VRDVD4500). Records both tapes and discs and will copy from either to the other. At the time, $339!

"You gotta be careful, though."

Jeez Louise, anyone from the SW (TX/NM/AZ here) will tell you that if you want the flavor and not all the heat, take the seeds and membranes out of the chilis before cooking!

During the deseeding process, do NOT repeat NOT touch your eyes (or pick your nose, for that matter) as that's a disaster in the making! Wear rubber gloves during the deseeding if possible.

And if it's still too hot, that's why God invented ice cream!

Enjoy... :)

And James Brolin is likely quaking in fear of whatever creature might appear next to him in the morning... lumpety, bumpety... BOO!

"That wasn't friendship, IMO. That was loyalty."

Yeah, what Woofer said...

The likes of a Kerry or a Clinton would not even have acknowledged that the agent existed unless "that sonofabitch" had knocked them down!

I have a feeling that those "protecting" the Clintons see it as a job, those that covered Kerry are sighing in relief and those covering W and Co. see it as more of a calling.

"They're dying on the vine"

And... they're eating their young as well.

So long they have wooed the women voters and the black voters while proclaiming to be the way, the light, the salvation for those groups...

And now that GWB nominates likely the most highly qualified Female (who just happens to be Black as well) on the planet to be SoS they raise hell.

Again, I say that I hope that the gun they have aimed at their feet has a fully-loaded, pre-ban, high-cap mag in it!

The Breck Boy can always go and "carpet bag" his way in NY -- methinks there will be an open Senate seat there in '08...

Hey, they were victimized by a "foreigner" one time, they might fall for it again...

Bwahahahahahhaa...

Just imagine for a moment as horrifying as the thought might be, that the vote were exactly reversed...

GWB would have gone before the cameras and the people and said something to the effect: "The people have spoken and have selected whom they thought the better candidate and I accept that."

There would have been no wailing, no finger pointing, no blaming and he would have retired to being a happy rancher in Crawford and that would have been the end of it. Period!

I think that's what those of us in the red precincts, counties, cities and states call "character."

That, John Boy, is a quality of which you are totally bereft!

Just another fine example of DemLib hypocrisy as I see it.

They pander, scour, scramble and scrabble for both the womens' and the blacks' votes in all arenas and typically promise them the earth, moon and stars with a DemLib administration... and for decades, it's worked like a charm though that now seems to be changing just a bit, at least.

But... let Bush nominate likely one of the most brilliant, capable and talented women (who just happens to also be Black) on the planet to be SoS and all Hell breaks loose!

Talk about eating your young so to speak!

I hope that the gun they're using on their own feet has a fully loaded, pre-ban, hi-cap mag in it...

"it seemed like a bunch of Hollywood "has beens" had nothing better to do but try and get noticed at the library opening. "

BINGO!
On O'Reilly last night, he had a stint with Geraldo who, in turn had a clip of himself getting a brief one-on-one in the rain with the Slickster...

There on the side was "the Babs" scrabbling like a groupie (gropie? gropee?) to get in the scene and close to "the Impeached One."

Bwahahahahahaaa

I was cruising the FNC site this morning and came upon the transcript of Greta’s “Grand Opening Day” interview with Hitlery.

In the “transcript” as printed, there seems to be a small(?) error compared to what I heard when I watched the interview as it aired during the ceremonies…

Per the transcript, in response to Greta’s first question, “In your wildest dreams, did you ever think it would come to this?”, Hitlery responded with some early history including the statement “…made him President….”

As I stated, I watched the interview and distinctly heard “the Beast” say “…made us President….” I tried to make a post to that effect at the time but through my own inadequacies, was unable to.

Did anyone else hear happen to see the interview and hear what I heard?

Does anyone care?

Seems to me that on what was effectively the kick-off of her Presidential campaign that she made the first of what I am sure will be an unending string of gaffes and would like to have it documented…

The major question is why is the transcript different from what I clearly heard? And yes, I have mailed FNC with the question.

"I'm noticing a lot of mail and bank frauds"

More striking to me at least, is the number of "possession with intent to distribute..."

There I was...

It was Christmas...
I was in Cambodia...
There were guns to the left of me...

I'd nominate Terry McLaughable!

After all, without the effects of his direction and far reaching actions, this country might well be in really deep sh!t for the next four years!
