So was it Biden that told Condi yesterday

[crispini]

that Rummy didn't know what he was doing? Anyone got a link to a transcript or the exact quote?

And what's up with that anyway? Is Boxer passing out spine cells or something?

1. I saw the clip. It was Biden.

"For God's sake, whatever you do don't listen to Rumsfeld on this issue!" However, I didn't hear the question - something with Iraq. I think I saw it as a clip on Keith Olberman's show last night.

"and don't listen to Rumsfeld, he doesn't know what the HELL he's talking about..."

6. Thanks! here's the excerpt!

You all don't do anything except parrot, "We've trained 120,000 forces." So I go home and people ask me the same thing they ask the senator from Illinois: "Why are we still there? 120,000 trained Iraqis. Why are we still there?"

So do me a favor -- as my mother would say, God love you, please do me a favor. Start to tell the whole deal.

And let's agree -- not agree. Let me cite a new definition of trained: If you're able to take the place of a U.S. force. Let's call it that.

And I'd like you to think about and in private tell us later after you're secretary, which I'm going to -- about to vote for you in about five minutes.

BIDEN: Tell us, how many of those folks you think, you think -- and for God's sake, don't listen to Rumsfeld. He doesn't know what in the hell he's talking about on this.
