Not surprised really...

And you're shocked because?

They were gonna give it to Bill Clinton but...

The more they speak the clearer their intentions are.
They seem to ignore the fact that most of them would be first on the block so to speak...

Anyone know if Rice will be seated with the cabinet or with Al-Jazeera?

Maybe they'll learn something.

Or at least get a new set of photos to photoshop for their protest demonstrations.

The dems are pathetic.
NOW can we question their patriotism?

This merely takes away any element of doubt, now, doesn't it?

Not really much difference in the coverage by Al-Jazeera and that of the AP, BBC or Reuters. Yep Al-Jazeera fits right in...

Wouldn't want them behind me. Nope. Nosirree. Only way to seat them, in my opinion.

The DUmmies are going to be a riot for the SOTU address.

If Hillary wins, we can just rename the Lincoln Bedroom to "The Harem."

Ah, Madeleine Albright style of diplomacy at work. When at first you can't surrender, try, try again!

blinky lacks the smarts to grasp the nature of evil.

The Dems adore radical Islamic media. Radical Islam can blow stuff up while the Dems use their surrogates ( Alex Jones, Air America, and Michale Moore) to conjure up conspiracies that blame it all on Bush/Cheney.

They need preferred space to broadcast "Death to America"?

All the above.

Also, I would probe,x-ray,take apart their cameras and put them back together,etc, before I would even let them near the POTUS.

So, they're giving al Jazeera prime seating. Must be nice in the world of the leftists to on the one hand complain that Bush is taking away everyone's freedoms and rights, and on the other hand have not only the party of opposition have prime seating, but they provide it to the mouthpiece of the enemies of the US.

Gotcha.

It's all about the priorities.

My guess is that Helen Thomas might be bumped from her slot at the White House briefings in favor of someone even more anti-American. The Democrats are giving al Jazeera a shot at the crown...

I posted this list of the President's guests on the last thread, but a contrast needs to be drawn here:
- Staff Sgt. Craig Charloux of Bangor, Maine, who served in Iraq for 14 months and served as a leader of an Armored Reconnaissance Squadron. He was seriously wounded by two grenade blasts but was able to successfully complete the raid, in which eight al-Qaida operatives were killed.
—Dr. Bill Krissoff of the United States Navy Medical Corps. He applied to the Navy Medical Corps after his oldest son, Marine 1st Lt. Nathan Krissoff, was killed in combat in Iraq.

Also consider that this is very similar to the frame of mind of conservatives who were pissed off at G.H.W.

It's a bad strategy that may not play out the way you think it will.
Far better to put someone in place as close as possible to your views, and try to strengthen conservative influence within the party and in the electorate in the meantime. Frankly, the most effective approach might be grassroots efforts to replace the wafflers with conservatives at the Congressional level... control of the legislature often has more effect than of the Presidency.

Also, I would probe,x-ray,take apart their cameras and put them back together,etc, before I would even let them near the POTUS.

I bet this man wishes he had done so, he'd be alive today if he had.

re: #72 Ziggy

I fear you are perhaps right.

Our forefathers worked wayy too hard and at MANY times during the forming of America encountered much rougher times than what the USA is going through now and thank the Lord Almighty that they didn't throw in the towel and say we were done for. I won't ever say America is done for, it just seems so disrespectful to them. I won't ever give up the fight, America deserves our fight/support and so do our troops to keep this land free and brave. We will always have to fight evil, that is just a fact of life.

re: #25 The Shadow Do

I posted this list of the President's guests on the last thread, but a contrast needs to be drawn here:
- Staff Sgt. Craig Charloux of Bangor, Maine, who served in Iraq for 14 months and served as a leader of an Armored Reconnaissance Squadron. He was seriously wounded by two grenade blasts but was able to successfully complete the raid, in which eight al-Qaida operatives were killed.
—Dr. Bill Krissoff of the United States Navy Medical Corps. He applied to the Navy Medical Corps after his oldest son, Marine 1st Lt. Nathan Krissoff, was killed in combat in Iraq.

Thanks for posting this list. You know, bush ticks me off at times with stuff I think is not right, but he does a lot of good. That list is interesting and it would not surprise me if he handpicked them and not his staffers.

re: #111 Ziggy

I really like Rick Santorum. He is someone I could actually love as a President.

re: #132 Peter Verkooijen

Lebanon News Live from Beirut:
Letter from Barack Obama on his Muslim heritage

There are so many scary passages in that link you just posted that it actually sent shivers down my spine. Thanks for posting it.

The CommieDems are good dhimmis... They are already appeasing their mohammedan masters.

This is precisely why we must not allow the 2nd amendment to be messed with. It is what ensures not only the 1st amendment but keeps gov't in check. Imagine what chavez and fidel castro would do if they had a constitutionally allowed armed citizens. Even canadians have told me..whatever you do DO not give up your right to bear arms. They can see the effects.

I know some didn't grow up with guns nor shoot them..but I hope they realize how much it does help to have it in the back of these fat, dumb and happy politicians minds and keeps them slightly in check, they aren't all powerful in all sense of the word. Think about it, if there were an absence of guns...these politicians would be even worse, imo.

You go up to a house and it has a Beware of Owner sign with a handgun, as a robber do you choose that one or the next house? I'd choose the next :P .
