What are the common sound bites the GOP Senators using

[Robbien]

in the confirmation hearing?. We all know they got a talking points memo. Are the common talking points obvious yet?

1. Condi is awesome!

That's it.. Feel free to use your GOP issued thesaurus for additional synonyms for "awesome". Ignore her her pre/post 9/11 performance. Do not deviate from the script or we'll send you some anthrax.

2. Bullshit like...

Stay the course

No one could have predicted the insurgency

Condi is a trusted friend of the President

Condi is known by world leaders

3. immoral to lie, imoral war

4. The first article on today's hearings have appeared in Google

headlined Kennedy Assails Iraq Policy, Rice's Role

It picked up many good quotes from the Democratic Senators and gives us a good clue on what the GOP talking point is going to be:

"We are talking about the safety and security of this country, so I very much and very quickly want to move with Secretary Rice," Senate Republican leader Bill Frist of Tennessee said Tuesday.

6. safety and security, safety and securit , safety and security, safety...

Too bad Rice failed that test on 9/11 (hint: "Security" was part of her official title)

5. As a fetus, Condi could already play the piano
