1. kick
Is it just me, or is this the worst that Wolfowitz has looked? He's really not looking good today.

5. He's been misleading government for 30 years...
I'll settle for him being fired, but he needs to be held up as a public disgrace and sent to Nicaragua to sew clothes for Walmart.

4. Wolfowitz is pushing the "everything is just great in Iraq" scenario
Edited on Tue Sep-09-03 09:50 AM by khephra
And he's pushing it too far. I don't think anyone is buying that bullshit from any of the Bushies anymore. I don't think he's in for an easy questioning.

6. The Dead Zone....every time I see Wolfowitz that phrase comes to mind
He's frightening with that "dead voice" and those "dead eyes." He looks and sounds like a man with no soul!

Edited on Tue Sep-09-03 11:00 AM by ignatius
UN hotel that was bombed. You know, the bombing that Wolfiwitz called an "opportunity" for us to bring in the UN.

McCain is no fool, if that bomb had killed he and the rest of the US envoy,which I suspect it was meant to do, Congress would give the BFEE ANYTHING they wanted.

Come on John, out this evil bastard and his distorted PNAC worldview.

17. On This Subject.
My best fried from childhood to today (and one of the smartest people I know) has always voiced conservative leanings. Mostly I think he does it because, he thinks, it makes him sound tough. Before and during the war we would get into yelling matches about the situation. I was over to his house for some gaming Saturday and as we sat outside smoking he nearly knocked me off my chair. He asked me what I thought of the UN bombing. I said it's was a tragedy and it's only getting uglier over there. Then he replied, don't you think we did it? Now, I'm not sure who was behind the bombing, but for him to make a statement like this was amazing. The worm has really turned on this whole mess.

15. Wolfy couldn't even look Ted in the eye
Nor can he address the question about the planning for the safety of the troops. Still spends more time keeping his eyes everywhere but on the committee until well into his response.

19. Inhofe Says Iraqi Citizens And Infrastructure...
better now than before the war. What fucking planet has this guy been on. The power was on in Baghdad up until the day we raped it. What an asshole. He also said that some of the media doesn't want or fiasco to succeed. Can he site one fucking example of any person in the media who wants our troops to die. GOD DAMMIT!!!!

41. did you see how Wolfie tired to change the subject?
on Byrd - bringing up the Ayatollah's son in Iraq? And Byrd called him on it and said LET ME FINISH while I still have time WOULD YOU?

He looks like hell - Wolfowitz does. Its taking a toll on Byrd too. Hell its taking a toll on me as well! Its taking a toll on the WORLD!

This cannot go on! It cannot! :nuke:

42. I'm more concerned that the BFEE
is waiting for him to take a ride in a small plane.
He is tough as nails and a true American servant,
which is exactly why the BFEE can't have him around
much longer.
I put NOTHING past them.

He's an extremely bad actor, but he keeps trying to make this as emotional as possible. I'd like to see him fired.

He could reprise his wonderful speech from the Foreign Relations Committee in which he told Wolfowitz to "stop pretending Iraq & 9/11 are the same issue".
