1. says they WILL have hearings on this
and will be, basically, BEGGING people to testify

Biden asks WTF the PLAN is going to be

Lugar said yesterday on MTP that Bush hasn't said word ONE to him about the handover.....just the date

he doesn't appear to be very pleased about this

2. Lehrer takes presidnet's side, as usual
saying we HAVE to turn things over, don't we?

Biden says if we DO, it's going to be chaos, that the ''thugs,'' at this point, are winning

wonders why some Brahimi-like figure isn't being summoned to help keep the peace

says the junta consulted regularly during the war, but are ignoring senate now, and asks if the American people are wondering if we have plan for success

in other words........we are SCREWED, BLUED, etc

5. Lugar says the local "police" have been running away from contact
with the bad guys there

Lehrer: if the US, for whatever reason, doesn't meet its obligations on June 30, won't the thugs there feel that they've WON?

Lugar: duh, basically; we're going to transfer power from DOD to the State Department.....don't know how we're going to do this without a roadmap...the american people, the senate needs to know WTF they have planned

6. Biden is Sybil.....just as bad as tweety
never know what he's going to say

Biden: we're not levelling with the American people

we're responsible in totality for Iraqi security

he asks again: WHAT is the PLAN?

Lehrer: is the problem internal disagreement as to what to do?

Lugar: I DON'T KNOW! I've been asking quietly, but......]

lost what he said while typing
