2. most qualified? Hey, that lie worked for Poppy.
remember when he stood there and insisted with a straight face that Clarence Thomas wasn't selected on account of race, but because he was the "most qualified" person for the gig?

Did anyone in attendence believe it? of course not...

4. i think Texas Lottery Commission beats Thomas
Although we'll have to wait to see if Miers has any skeletons in the closet - doubt she's a total perv harasser like Thomas.

I only heard a few minutes but what about
Iraq is part of the war on terror

(referring to a mayor in Miss who had been in office 2 months) the first thing on his desk was his city was destroyed (I know this on is an exagerration and not a lie but how simple does he think we are that we believe mayors do nothing but wait for disasters?)

6. In talking about his "ownership" society....
He mentioned good paying jobs -- but said nothing about paying the people in the disaster area below prevailing wages. How can people buy anything if htey make less and less?

15. No, you don't understand.
He's talking about more good paying jobs for his CEO friends who are already millionaires! Or maybe he was talking about good paying jobs in India and China?

9. there are 30 battalions
The point is they cannot be trusted to do anything. Even the US troops don't want to go with them - they fear that those iraqi troops will
a) warn the insurgents
b) turn on them
c) run away with their weapons.

there is ONE battle ready, independent and dependable battalion - around 700 soldiers and officers.

nice job. Spending $200,000,000,000 of taxpayer money for 700 qualified troops. That has to be the MOST expensive army in the world.
