October 13th, 2005 at 8:13 amFrist is another rich arrogant crook that need to be out of the senate. All these Repubs thinks is stealing from the american people.
October 13th, 2005 at 8:15 amAlittle off subject. Dean was grilled pretty good by Letterman lastnight about Democratic Party incompetence.
Dean should be the next president. Hillary? Too much baggage.
October 13th, 2005 at 8:23 amHillary? Hillary who? Ooooh, you mean THAT Hillary. The one who voted for the war, and did not have a single vertebrate apparent during any voting session that could actually change things?? Pfffft. I don’t care what Gore says about not running. Outside of Dean, he’s the only individual with stones AND brains. Come on, Al—-say it isn’t so….
October 13th, 2005 at 8:29 amMaybe Dean and Russ Feingold could run on the same ticket. Senator Feingold did not vote for this war.
October 13th, 2005 at 8:33 amThe Repubs would tear Hillary apart.
Dean openly acknowledged (again) that Kerry tried to win on only 18 states.
October 13th, 2005 at 8:37 amI’m here to testify that I live in Texas and still have not received my “Kerry/Edwards” bumper stickers I ordered on the K/E website…
Well, they would TRY to tear her apart but I don’t know that they could really sink their pointy teeth into her flesh enough to take her down. I would vote for Al though. He already won once, he can do it again!
October 13th, 2005 at 8:38 am(It is a profound image seeing a Democratic bumper sticker on a 4X4 in Texas-Woe to the DNC for not paying attention!)
October 13th, 2005 at 8:40 amthe indictments in this administration are about to start coming so fast you’ll need a computer and a staff catalog to keep up; cheaters never win!
October 13th, 2005 at 8:55 amWhat is taking so long? We keep hearing this is coming. Frankly I am getting impatience. I hope they all go down. The White House will go after Fitzgerld.
October 13th, 2005 at 9:02 amHillary has WAAAAY too much baggage. The only people who really like her are on the far left. Centrist, moderate, and conservative leaning folks won’t vote for her.
I agree with the poster who noted her spineless backing of the Iraq war. She stepped up to the war bar and ordered a supersized jug of Koolaid.
The next candidate needs to be someone who didn’t vote for the war. Not a spineless lapdog Dem that most of those in Congress are.
October 13th, 2005 at 9:05 amDoes anyone think Frist or his office still has any documents sitting around? C’mon. Shredded weeks ago…
October 13th, 2005 at 9:30 amFor a beaten-but-not-broken Dem, this is an embarassment of riches. And do you realize that Abramoff-gate still hasn’t blown up the way it’s going to?
Here’s my suggestion for all good Dems, check and see if your Representative (if GOP) received any DeLay pac money. If so, write them and your local papers and demand that the money go to Hurricane Katrina victims. It puts them in a rather nasty box don’t you know.
Meantime, back to the scandal-torn GOP. You won’t believe this:
Dr. Phil to Intervene in Troubled Republican Family
Program to air Sunday night on Fox
EWM- (October 12, 2005) Pop psychology guru Dr. Phil McGraw will conduct a live intervention Sunday night on the Fox Network in an attempt to pacify the feuding Republican Party. The program was hastily announced this morning as party leaders conceded that the internecine warfare over Supreme Court nominees, Iraq policy, corruption, out of control spending and general incompetence was about to go nuclear.
“These guys need more than a check-up from the neck-up. I’m going to have to do a full cranial colonic. I mean they got more troubles than a trailer park,†said Dr. Phil…
October 13th, 2005 at 9:35 amMr. Righteous should have to squirm in public before paying a stiff fine for his cheating. No excuses of blind trusts – particularly when run by your brother – and the company was founded by your father.
October 13th, 2005 at 9:58 amRepublican lying, cheating and hypocrisy is outside and in full daylight these days — let’s see how long it is before the public notices this time.
this is all about overzealous liberals over at the SEC, who clearly have a partisan political agenda… (we’ll be hearing that before long)
October 13th, 2005 at 10:18 amSeems like Leader Frist is in deep do do not only with the SEC but with the Senate Ethics Committee, as well.
I wonder if Mr. Frist will get to spend some time in Camp Cup Cake for actually doing what Martha was ‘accused’ of…… It’s a good thing.
October 13th, 2005 at 10:36 amUmm, #4…Wes Clark (http://www.securingamerica.com/) has stones and brains and leadership experience and is not a career politician and has a lot of damn good ideas. I’d check him out.
October 13th, 2005 at 11:56 am#16 you’re being sarcastic, right?
October 13th, 2005 at 2:50 pmHow about Dean and Barbra Boxer of California. What do you think.? Can we draft them and start now.? Let’s have some input from all the left here. Sugestions any one…Blessings
October 13th, 2005 at 5:04 pmSorry off point in #20. Since Frits made more money that Martha, he should do more time, his funds should go for Katrina relief or our vetrans…Here’s to jail time. Maybe he and Delay will serve together, woulden’t that be appropiate…..Blessings
October 13th, 2005 at 5:08 pmI’m not voting for Hillary, her husband says he is friends with Bushie.
Fienhold sounds like an option. I’m considering moving to his state in the spring.
My first choice is Donald Trump. (I dont care that he had several wives, wipdy do) 60% of all marriages end in divorce.
October 13th, 2005 at 7:20 pmAs for Frist, I’m walking on sunshine, doesn’t it feel good?
