		<description>Congress should take every measure to fight back and hold the White House or the President in contempt of Office.  This is needed to show the people that we would not stand for the President&#039;s breach of justice in this country.  Pirates, that what this administration reminds me of modern day &quot;Pirates&quot;.</description>

		<description>At least President Bush is a somebody. Cindy Sheehan is just a frustrated middle aged woman who needs to hire a male prostitute to put it in her behind.
Comment by m12 â€” July 9, 2007 @ 1:30 pm

me12(years old)
So now you&#039;re trashing a woman who lost her son to this war, which you support, with vulgar images, eh?   If you actually aren&#039;t just 12 years old, as I suspect, why aren&#039;t you there making a similar sacrifice, chickenhark boy?
Bush is a spoiled frat boy who is where he is only because he comes from a wealthy family.   Cindy Sheehan has more character and guts in her little finger than you and Bush combined.</description>

		<description>I enjoy reading the comments. I see most of 
you as kindred spirits, and share in your thoughts.

The problem as I see it...62 milllion people voted for
the boy-president last election, and anybody in there
right mind had to know the Iraq invasion was wrong?
Many people believe were in Iraq because they were 
behind 911. Even more people believe, &quot;We fight them
there so we don&#039;t have to fight them, here.&quot; What 
incredible bullshit!

I just returned from Europe. I ask people while I was
there what there impressions were of Americans. They
were shy at, first.  Here&#039;s some of the responses:
1. scary
2. dumb
3. big mouths
4. don&#039;t listen
5. what are you afraid of?
6. war-mongers
7. all you care about is money.

I could go on, but you get the picture....</description>

		<description>What kills me is that FOX has the nerve to put the meekest black man imaginable next to Kristal..........Juan Williams.
Put me next to Kristol and see what happens...............
Juan Williams is PATHETIC!
If he sold drugs on the streets of D.C he would be more repectable to me.
Being the stepit fetchit of FOX network is unforgivable!</description>

		<description>How quant.
One of the chief Neo-CON bastards is pleased about the deceit coming out of the White House.
Remember.........the Neo-CON philosophy is a creation of the right wing Jews to benefit Israel and to a lesser extent America.
Its godfather LEO STRAUSS championed deciet and outright lying to the american people as a tactic to further the neo-con agenda.
Therefore it comes as no surprise that the number 1 NEO-CON mouthpiece Bill Kristol would be pleased at such deception.
Thank god most Jews dont agree with these evil bastards.
Israel is MUCH worse off now than before.</description>

		<description>Wow, so Marc Rich was an underling of Bill&#039;s and could have sent Clinton to jail if he wasn&#039;t pardoned?

Geez Louise.  PNAC Kristol has always been full of shit, but this takes the proverbial cake.

For one thing, Bush/Cheney commuted rather than pardoned Libby so that Libby could still plead the Fifth if he ever was put under oath about Bush and Cheney&#039;s role in outing CIA NOC Valerie Plame and destroying her entire Middle East and Iraq spy network.  

That network, by the way, was tasked with seeing whether Saddam still had any usable WMD left from the stockpiles Rumsfeld and Cheney gave him when they were working for Reagan in the 1980s; their verdict:  Nope.  

That&#039;s how Plame&#039;s hubby Joe Wilson was able to state in the July 2003 NYT Op-Ed that there wasn&#039;t any WMD where Bush/Cheney said there was.  This ticked off Dick Cheney so much that he sent his gunsel Scooter Libby -- who has already testified under oath to leaking to Judith Miller on Cheney&#039;s orders -- to destroy Valerie Plame and her overseas intelligence network.   (Anyone wanna guess how long any of her Iraqi contacts managed to survive once the local insurgents knew that the American women who talked to them was a CIA agent?)</description>

		<description>But of course it was the week of the Fourth of July, so nobody was listening anyway.

I think that was much more likely the reason.

They would have brought up Clinton no matter what he did or said, or if he did or said nothing. The Clinton &quot;scandals&quot; have always been fabrications anyway.</description>

		<description>More idiots who bought into Fraud Sheehan? Whatever!

She might have been a tad believable when she stuck to meeting with the President and bringing the troops home, but now, with her whining about Scooter, sheâ€™s shown that she doesnâ€™t give 2 sh!ts about her son and that sheâ€™s just a general mouthpiece for a forgotten wing of the Democratic party.

Very true.

It seemed at first as though she had principles and firm beliefs.

Now I&#039;m wondering which Leftist faction is paying her bills!</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The Libby case is not comparable to anything President Clinton ever did. &lt;/i&gt;

It&#039;s not the point.  Bush wanted noise.  That&#039;s what Bush and Republicans do: They bring up irrelevancies, to confuse the argument and take people down primrose paths into left field.  When the argument goes off on the most ridiculous tangent and people forget what the point is, Republicans win.

All that Bush wanted was Clinton to rise to the bait, and he did.  

It is for that reason that I, cynically, refer to Clinton as &quot;the gift that just keeps on giving.&quot;  

If Hillary gets the nomination (or winds up winning the general election in 2008), this is what we can expect for the entire time that she is in the picture.  It&#039;ll be a repeat of the last years of Bill Clinton&#039;s administration, with Republicans tying up the media and our government, all over again, with more Hillary and Bill scandals.  And the Clintons will do their part in providing justification.</description>

		<description>Sure willyloman, read your beloved &quot;everyman&quot; sympathizer, terrorist supporter, America-hater, Chomsky...

Then, before you know it you will be playing into the hand of your Isamo-Stalinist masters...

Remember willyloman, the faults of your masters will rub off on you...

You will find that you have become an anarchist with no firm principles,  values or sense of identity, 

willing to surrender to the Muslim extremists!!!!!!!</description>
