Fools
Posted at 10:21pm on Mar. 6, 2008 Hillary, keep talking. PLEASE keep talking.
The more she says, it seems, the better.
By Mark Kilmer
Hillary's yap, when she opens it, can be a fine thing.
“I think that since we now know Sen. (John) McCain will be the nominee for the Republican Party, national security will be front and center in this election. We all know that. And I think it’s imperative that each of us be able to demonstrate we can cross the commander-in-chief threshold,” the New York senator told reporters crowded into an infant’s bedroom-sized hotel conference room in Washington.
“I believe that I’ve done that. Certainly, Sen. McCain has done that and you’ll have to ask Sen. Obama with respect to his candidacy,” she said.
Of course, nothing about her makes her fit to be a commander in chief, but she has told us that Republican John McCain is ready. She did insist that she thinks she might be ready, although she knows better -- but not so much so with Barry. (Of course, as has been said, neither are ready.)
Who has won that exchange? Someone not directly involved, the senior Senator from Arizona.
AND btw, what can Barry say to that? That – nyaah, nyaah – he's made the cover of Rolling Stone magazine? Maan?
I trust things will get better for the Dems. I mean, even Fritz won one State (and the District).

Posted at 6:29pm on Dec. 3, 2007 Harry Reid Still Captains The Ship Of Fools
Was he tazed over the Thanksgiving Break?
By haystack
I'm literally speechless (well, not blogless of course, but absolutely speechless)now that I've read THIS piece at the Politico which suggests Harry Reid believes not ONLY that the surge isn't working, but that:
"We're involved, still, in an intractable civil war."
As one of my oldest and most favored sayings goes...I used to be disgusted, now I'm just amused.
Really Harry...are you feeling ok man? You might want to get that checked, before it progresses beyond modern medicine's ability to heal you up and make you all better.
As Harry opens the next volley of foolishness in the Senate after the holiday break, hell-bent on keeping up the battle to force a withdrawal and blackmail the President by withholding troop funding, he brings us this little gem of insight about military budgets:
Reid said Monday that the Senate still might take up a war funding bill before Christmas, and Democrats were still trying to find a compromise so it doesn't look like they've caved in to the White House on troop funding. Democrats are considering tweaking troop withdrawal language to lure a few more GOP supporters so the Senate could achieve a 60-vote filibuster-proof margin.
"I think we'll address war funding this month," Reid said.
[...]
Reid also accused President Bush of bluffing about the potential layoffs of 100,000 Pentagon employees if the war funding doesn't come through immediately. Bush says civilian employees will be furloughed because the Pentagon will have to pull from regular accounts to fund the war due to the Democrats' intransigence on Iraq funding.Reid says that's just not true, adding that Secretary of Defense Robert Gates assured the Senate that the Army and Marines have month through the end of February.
The man is delirious. I 'think' we'll address it? Don't want to look like you caved to Bush? Good God man...how about caving to facts and reality? How DID you make Majority Leader Squishy Harry? Even Okinawa Jack knows when it's time to shift gears...
More below the fold...
