Edited on Tue Jan-18-05 06:26 PM by Rabrrrrrr
Bwuhahahahaha!!
She nailed Condi - "I'm not going to go on and on, because we don't agree and we won't agree. But I want to put something ito the record". And then she read the Ari Fleischer statement that the war in Iraq WAS about WMD, and IS about WMD. Bwuhahahaha!
"Sen. Dodd gave you a great chance to (something like "act like a human") about torture; then Feingold gave you another chance, and you didn't take the opprtunity. And it's very disappointing."

4. LOL! Barbara nailing Condi on another torture-related thing |
|
nailed her for getting rid of a bipartisan unanimous congressional agreement to make the US follow it's constitution and treaties in relation to torturing and treatment of prisoners.
I love how Barbara has used the word "disappointing" a number of times. That's such a loaded word! A real beautiful word to use.

6. And of course, Condi didn't bother to answer it before asking |
|
to switch to another subject. She just says "No one condones torture" and "No one condones what happened at Abu Ghraib". Blah blah blah fucking lie lie lie blah blah blah.

Boxer's really giving her shit! This is beautiful!
"So why not just keep the amendment in the bill, if you say that was already the policy? It was voted for 100-0 - why not just keep it? So what if it's duplicative, as you say?"
"You had a chance to embrace this language, and yet you write a letter, and as a result, it's dropped. It's a sad day for us, that's all I'm saying."

10. Condi's certainly taking on a defensive, bitchy tone, isn't she? |

12. I sent her a note telling her she's my new hero-- |
|
I live on the East Coast but my state has two Repug Senators and it's not like they're going to ask the hard questions or anything. Hell, if they were Democrats they wouldn't have had the balls to do what Sen. Boxer did today. She is outstanding and a credit to our party and to this nation!

13. Yes, she is. She's a great person. |
|
It's too bad these hearings are merely a formality before Condi gets her new title. I wish a fine person like Barbara Boxer could actually make a difference.
