On September 24, 2007 two Presidents of two different nations made these comments:
1. "You've isolated your nation. You've taken a nation of proud and honorable people and made your country the pariah of the world."
2. "What religion, please tell me, tells you as a follower of that religion to occupy another country and kill its people? ... You just can't wear your religion on your sleeve or just go to church. You should be truthfully religious."
3. "I think your ideas are weird, your religion is bat-shit, and you talk funny."
Who said which one?
Comment #1 was said by President Bush but it sure sounds like a description of President Bush.
Comment #2 was said by Iranian President Ahmadinejad about President Bush supposedly being "a very religious man".
Comment #3 was silently thought by both Presidents (but President Bush's lips moved!).
One of the more important issues of the day in the US Senate was not getting our troops out of Iraq. It was not stopping the endless and senseless slaughter of our soldiers and the Iraqi people.
Most important to the US Senate was defending the sensitive honor of one of our 4 Star Generals, General Petraeus. It seems that, even though it was President Bush that through him under the bus into the political tumbler, by making him the spokesperson for continuing the war, criticism will hurt his feelings. If left unchecked, our best and bravest in uniform will piss themselves because Bush's political fall-guy was taken to task by a magazine ad.
Here is some of the text of the Cornyn Amendment:
SA 2934.
(8) A recent attack through a full-page advertisement in the New York Times by the liberal activist group, Moveon.org, impugns the honor and integrity of General Petraeus and all the members of the United States Armed Forces.
(b) Sense of Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate--
(1) to reaffirm its support for all the men and women of the United States Armed Forces, including General David H. Petraeus, Commanding General, Multi-National Force-Iraq;
(2) to strongly condemn any effort to attack the honor and integrity of General Petraeus and all the members of the United States Armed Forces; and
(3) to specifically repudiate the unwarranted personal attack on General Petraeus by the liberal activist group Moveon.org.
The Amendment passed, 72-25 with the help of these 22 Democratic Senators:
Somehow, we need to remind these namby-pamby, milktoast Democrats that THEY WON THE FUCKING ELECTION!... that they were charged with the task of getting us out of Bush's War of Choice in Iraq... that they are the majority and need to start acting like it.
"Isn't Thompson the candidate who is opposed to a Constitutional amendment to protect marriage, believes there should be 50 different definitions of marriage in the U.S., favors McCain-Feingold, won't talk at all about what he believes, and can't speak his way out of a paper bag on the campaign trail?" Dobson wrote.
"He has no passion, no zeal, and no apparent 'want to.' And yet he is apparently the Great Hope that burns in the breasts of many conservative Christians? Well, not for me, my brothers. Not for me!"
Looks like Freddy has some work to do amongst the faithful.

Hold their feet to the fire!
Now, Harry Reid needs to bring this back to a vote as often as the rules allow and advertise the names of those willing to betray American values and freedoms until, one by one, they roll over and do the right thing or they get their asses handed to them and are thrown out of office by REAL Americans!
OK, it's true that we can't see the entire exchange. However, I see one guy in a suit make the signal to "cut him off" and I hear John Kerry say, "Let me answer some of his questions."
Then we see the student grabbed and an attempt to escort him out. He yells, "Why are you arresting me?" and "What did I do?"
Those are both questions we couldn't answer. Can you?
Two men in suits appear on screen. Their faces are blurred.
MAN #1 It’s hard when you’re holding hands with someone at a prayer breakfast and wondering, am I feeling more than the power of Jesus?
Cut to another pair of men, also dressed in suits.
MAN #3 The guys I’d meet randomly would find out I’m a Republican and want to get into it about Bush. I’d tell them, hey, if I wanted to get into bush, I’d be home with my wife.
MAN #2 Yeah, I didn't hire you to be the speaker, I hired you to be the whip!
Cut to the GOP-Harmony spokesman.

"What is the greatest threat facing us now? People will say it's terrorism. But are there any terrorists in the world who can change the American way of life or our political system? No. Can they knock down a building? Yes. Can they kill somebody? Yes. But can they change us? No. Only we can change ourselves.
