		<description>Do have have to let these treasonous bafoons back in the country?  I say leave them in Syria since they&#039;re so attached to the Mooslam cult.  It would be true justice.</description>

		<description>If this keeps up, I&#039;m going to start writing my short stories agian..........


(&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7-QJWxdafg&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Cue the Music&lt;/a&gt;)


(Scene Opens) Moonlight plateau in the dessert, East of Damascus, the “whining” of a single jeep crossing the switch backs ascending the plateau.

(Camera Angle) Helicopter view overhead, in and out shots, as the jeep whips up dust in the moonlight dessert night.

(Tight Shot) A tent, wind blowing, torches flaming, flickering in the wind, an image is summoned by guards covered in dust, with scarf’s covering their faces…. (Faint radio traffic in the distance….. the cocking of guns)

(The Jeep Stops)   Rustic man with battle scars steps off the jeep embraces his comrade……

(In a whisper) “Did she come?”

(Tears in his eyes) “Yes, by the “Grace of Allah”, Nancy Pelosi came………. “Victory is ours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

(In the back ground on the TV)

&lt;a href=&quot;http://youtube.com/watch?v=AiQfnP1884E&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&quot;We are all Muslims, trees, the Sun, and the Moon, and Global Warming, any part of &quot;God&#039;s Creation&quot; is a Muslim!&quot;&lt;/a&gt;

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;What’s the difference? If a country is 1) on the State Dept. terrorist list, 2) harbors and welcomes every terrorist in the book, including the only living Munich terrorist, 3) allows insurgent terrorists to come in and out of Iraq to kill our troops, and 4) foments international assassinations of officials of a neighboring country it is trying to run through an Islamic terrorist group that murdered hundreds of Americans (Hezbollah), we frankly should NOT be there visiting them–regardless of whom our “visitors” are, unless they are assassins. Not Condi, not Nancy, not Jihad Darrell, not other GOP Congressman, period. None of them.

Debbie Schlussel on April 1, 2007 at 8:57 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I&#039;m not saying I agree with them going there, but if it&#039;s on orders from the president, at least there&#039;s justification by those making the visit.  I won&#039;t tell you what I think needs to be done, but it certainly doesn&#039;t involve diplomacy.  But I&#039;m not the president.  My point is, I agree with you that no one should be going there and talking, but those who go at the president&#039;s request certainly have more business there than those who seek to undermine the president by having a separate foreign policy, and actively aiding the enemy by doing so.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Was her visit on behalf of the president though? It’s one thing if it’s his foreign policy, the outrage here is only partly because of which country’s leader these people are visiting, the main issue is that they’re pushing their own shadow foreign policy, as AP called it. That’s the real problem here. It’s one thing to bicker at home, but you don’t go around the administration with your own foreign policy ideas outside our borders. This only stands to benefit our enemies.

		<description>Do we know these representitives did NOT have permission from the president? If he sent them, even without a public statement, they would be there on his authorita.

Why does this make me feel like that magnificent bastard rove had his hands in this?

Did they pre-empt pelosi&#039;s trip to steal her thunder? Did Pelosi suddenly plan this trip the minute she found out some republicans were going over first?</description>

...And British Sailors are getting used like a cheap whore in a dark alley.


You draw the conclusions, it&#039;s basic logic.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;can’t think of the words to express how this makes me feel right now…I grew up in the 30’s-40’s, am a Korean Vet and had a young cousin who never came back from VietNam…I’m sorry but I just do not understand these people…I hesitate to call them men because I don’t see a ‘man’ in the whole damn bunch…on either side of the aisle. We need to do something and soon. 

DoctorDentons on April 1, 2007 at 4:54 PM&lt;/em&gt;

I know how you feel. Last week I was SO upset,watching the Portland anti-American demos-- seeing that 20 year old (or so)wearing a fake &quot;suicide bomb backpack&quot;---pooping on the flag- those people not only
 BURNED the flag,but burned effigies of our soldiers, and sung songs hoping for their deaths---then one particular whackjob pulls his pants down and craps on the burning American flag---Lets not forget, he did this in front of little kids.He was wearing a fake suicde backpack. He was calling for the death of our troops.---I am sick about this--I keep saying---who was this guy,can we find him?? Can we make him uncomfortable at least?? Can&#039;t we find him and pay him back?
I watched a video today of the Oakridge Boys,and one sang a song to his parents,both dead,both served in WW2---and it killed me thinking of what a country---we are leaving to our kids and grandkids,compared to what WE inherited..We went from a generation of non-complaining troops who did their job and came back to work hard and raise kids--and ended up with a generation of flag poopers.
I thank God for the men and women who still think we are worth defending.
I dont know if I can totally agree with them.</description>

		<description>It would seem that the only ones who realize we are at war are the troops in the field. I really thought, up until this week, that we would suceed in Iraq. Now I see no way. In fact for me the pendulum has swung the other way. Pull our troops out and lets get ready to fight the Islamo fascists in our streets. It will be awhile, but once they have sated their blood lust in Iraq they will come for us. It may even be 10 years from now since I think Europe is actually next on their list. They have made good progress in Africa and the jihad is almost to the self sustaining phase there. Give the jihadists credit for one thing, they never apologize and they never quit.</description>

It will be awhile, but once they have sated their blood lust in Iraq they will come for us. It may even be 10 years from now since I think Europe is actually next on their list. They have made good progress in Africa and the jihad is almost to the self sustaining phase there. Give the jihadists credit for one thing, they never apologize and they never quit.</p>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I can’t think of the words to express how this makes me feel right now…I grew up in the 30’s-40’s, am a Korean Vet and had a young cousin who never came back from VietNam…I’m sorry but I just do not understand these people…I hesitate to call them men because I don’t see a ‘man’ in the whole damn bunch…on either side of the aisle. We need to do something and soon.

&lt;/blockquote&gt;Well Said. I grew up in the 40&#039;s and 50&#039;s and DoctorDentons, while you and will not see it happen, I think we are seeing the beginning of the end of the USA as a free Republic. The Constitution is either under attack or ignored in too many instances.</description>

		<description>As long as these guys help libs, they&#039;re untouchable. 
Gonzales and the Justice Department should launch a &lt;strong&gt;massive&lt;/strong&gt; cleaning ofthe House and Senate. If Republicans won&#039;t stand up for the law in the name of bi-partisnaship, I won&#039;t vote for them.</description>

		<description>Not sure if this is big news, since House Republicans (when they were in the majority) have been going to Syria on these absurd trips for years.  A frequent Republican visitor, for instance, has been &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.debbieschlussel.com/archives/2003/08/darrell_issa_te.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Congressman Darrell Issa (R-CA) a/k/a Jihad Darrell&lt;/a&gt;, and he has vigorously praised Assad.  And he claimed he was there at the behest of President Bush.  That&#039;s why Republicans are in no position to criticize Nancy Pelosi on this. (And Condi Rice has met with Assad several times, too.)  They all suck up to the Assads, despite everything . . . and get nothing for it in return, but the continued scorn of the Arab street which is laughing at the pander bears.</description>

		<description>Man Bush has become a pussy... wait.... allow me to rephrase that.

Seriously though, why is he not threatening investigations for the, at the very least, borderline traitorous behavior?</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Useful idiots&lt;/em&gt;, you bet.  The Associated with Terrorist &quot;news&quot; agency used the names of the RHINOs first in that article.  Providing cover.  How stupid can they be?

&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;We are following in the lead of Ronald Reagan, who reached out to the Soviets during the Cold War,&quot; it added.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Wasn&#039;t Ronald Reagan President, not some dim-witted congressman...</description>
