Okay people, let's not go off half cocked. I relayed my information out wrong. I called my wife and she said it was a woman on Fox and Friends by the name of Reginia - a dem spokeswoman. She said that Rendall said that over 1000 troops were wasted in Iraq going after terrorits that were not terrorists while the real terrorist was allowed to escape. I paraphrased with the in vain comment because to me, that is what it means. Not that they died in vain, I do not believe that. I understand the dems to be saying that.
Thanks! In any case, neither Fast Eddie nor the Dem's mouthpiece is doing the Dems any kind of favor with this talk. Smooth move, guys...
I loathe Ed Rendell.
This is similar to what Bob Kerrey was spewing on Sunday's Meet the Press. Russert shouted a question, "Saddam Hussein wasn't a terrorist?" Then, of course, Kerrey went into the typical Democrat spin that Saddam was a very bad guy, but he wasn't bin Laden. Then Russert pointed out Saddam had funded all those suicide bombers' families in Israel, and Kerrey said Saddam was a bad guy, but...
The Democrat Party remains the party of Clinton. Just look at how they're now redefining the word terrorist.
Based on these latest comments by Rendell and Kerrey, any U.S. military member would be justified by going AWOL in Iraq if the goose-hunter becomes president. The troops would all be worthy of presidential pardons from John Kerry because there's no reason they should continue fighting in Iraq if their commander-in-chief supports rhetoric that says they're basically wasting their time in that country.
I just happened to zip home to grab lunch (graveyard shift) and caught that too. The Dem spokeswoman pulled a "I'm not going to comment on Rendall's comment blah blah " then in response to a question regarding the politiazation of 9/11 " Of course it's a political issue, George Bush made 9/11 a political issue ever since it happened". These people have no shame whatsoever. (I missed her actually saying what Rendall had said, it sounded like she dodged it completely)
