#1 No, they still don't TU. They would rather bend over, appease the terrorists and give them their daughters and say, "Please don't hurt us. We understand you!"

Fuck them, fuck the terrorists and kill the mouth-breathing swine! Better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

#2 Well, some of us did. Which is why I don't vote Democrat no mo'.

#3 Their biggest problem is the misguided belief that we can somehow be friends with everyone if only we change to suit them. They just don't get that there are people out there who don't want to hold hands and sing Kumbayah with us--they just want us dead!

#4 And now the Democrats are demanding an apology from the White House.

To which I hope the White House responds with a hearty "fuck you".

We need more of this criticism of Democrats, not less. And it should be louder and much, MUCH more in their faces. Stop playing nice with the Democrats, Bush, and start calling them what they are: traitors.

#5 Sure, give 'em an apology... using the same format as Senator Dick.

Rove: "I'm sorry if my stating the glaringly obvious has caused anybody pain."

#6 Do the Dems remind you of the Sunni? Everything always has to be about them, and they throw dreadful (sometimes explosive) tantrums if they don't get their way.

#7 Do the Dems remind you of the Sunni?

So far, no Democrat suicide bombers or IEDs. On the other hand, if you read DU enough, you begin to wonder what they're waiting for.

#8 On the other hand, if you read DU enough, you begin to wonder what they're waiting for.

They don't believe in anything worth dying for?

#9 pretty much all americans do not realize the implications of 9/11. they've been too coddled for too long to really truely "care" past a media controlled blitz of "God bless America". This society has gotten so comfortable that they choose not to face the reality of War. In a war you need to conserve your rescources so that you are leaner and have the extra capacity to sustain yourself for an extended seige. This is NOT what is happening.
These Arabs are not stupid and they whittled away at the soviets until they forced them into bankruptcy. Americans need to keep that in mind.

#11 I'm not sure, but didn't Reagan have something to do with bankrupting the Soviets into extinction?

#12 Gee, this is already part of the top-of-the-hour news on (I think) CBS radio. Anyone know if Durbin's slander made it into the network cycle this quickly?

#13 RC, I know without even looking up facts. I think we all know how quickly Turban's comments made it into the MSM.

#14 That's right -- they still haven't (accurately) reported on them, have they?

#15 Nope! And his "I'm sorry if you misunderstood me" cr@p has gotta go! I'm almost ready to break out the popcorn for the next round of Congressional elections.

#16 Fuck moderation, kick there ass, step on their neck, and choke them to death. Of course I am talking about the terrorists and not the Dhimicraps. ;-)

#18 "Better to die on your feet than to live on your knees."

You almost got it right; its: "Better to live on your feet than die on your knees" (apologies to Joseph Heller) ;-)

#19 In 10 years, the Soviets lost 15,000 dead. About 1.5 million Afghans were killed (about 100K muj, rest civilians). That was something the Soviet Empire of 350 million could have sustained forever w/o even noticing. They left because there was little for them to gain in Afghanistan, and it was killing their paramount political, economic, and military relations with the west.

The Soviets killed most of the Afghans by bombing the towns and villages to rubble. Come to think of it, that sounds like a great idea if applied to the Arabian peninsula. And $200 billion a year in oil revenues will buy a lot of bombs.

#20 For those who care Hugh Hewitt has listed some of the Dems actions/comments with respect to 9/11. It's all there for them to refute but they can't run away from their own words and actions. Rove really ought just send them that list and ask where he misspoke.

#21 Mark E. - It was meant to be a quote to say it is better to die a free man than to live as a slave.

#22 No, mmurray, you've got it wrong way round.

It's better to live on your feet than die on your knees.

#24 This sounds like a set for a White House spike.
