1. You know what- it might just be.
I think that not only is Kerry playing intellectual games with her, I think he's trying to wait her out, make her tired, so they have to continue tomorrow.

15. IMO, he's voicing the path that SHOULD be taken and giving her the room
to get on that psth.

It's prodding by wrapping her into her own words of agreement with him.

Condi is going away knowing that Kerry has the ear and the respect of the other world leaders for a reason.

6. I dunno
they seem pretty chummy.

He's not asking her tough questions at all. He looks like he's about to ask her out for drinks.

He's trying to beat her at the "smart" game.

23. Yep, She made that slip about....
8 months ago I think. It was a BLIP that passed quickly, BUT I HEARD it! It could have been longer than that, but I'm almost sure is was DURING the election campaign@

You can take it to the BANK! It WAS said, but I don't know where to find it!

10. I'm back in mourning again - this man is AWESOME
I don't care what any of you say about him, he loves this country and even though I'm heartbroken that he found reasons not to be in the Senate on January 6th - the fact that he is able to speak with such deep knowledge about the issues before the Senate makes me proud to have supported him so relentlessly. I see a deep concern for our security in every question he asks. His examination is brilliant. I just hope that the assholes that called him names through the campaign and who will keep demonizing for standing up for our security today go to the same kind of hell that they appear to advocate.

It's very sad that he has to do this with so many of the people who really wanted him to be president are demonizing him too for his strategy.

11. what is going on?
this tete a tete, is making Condi look good. What on earth is happening with this elongated conversation?

I don't get it.

No doubt Kerry will vote for her confirmation. He seems to be rambling on and on.

16. He did the same thing
During the debates....

He hasn't learned the fine art of giving them enough rope to hang themselves with.

21. Most people seemed to think he did quite well during the debates
No? He seemed quite succinct to me then.

12. Encourage Kerry
I emailed my comments of how proud I was to see him standing up to one of * minions and encouraged him to not back down. Kerry also has a petition to demand Rumsfeld's removal. Please kick this hard!!
_____________________________________________________________________

I'll say this in the Senate, but I'm asking you to add your voice to mine:

"President Bush, for the sake of our troops, replace Rumsfeld now."
