1. From a man who voted pro-bush 90+% of the time. Fuck him.

[WillyT]

2. Yeah... But I'm Still Glad He Said It

:shrug:

It's 100% meaningless to me. Warning me about a criminal after he aids & abets. Fuck him.

11. If you think Hagel "aided and abetted" the war criminal, then I guess

you'd have to include Hillary, Edwards, Biden and Dodd in that too. They weren't any better.

[bbgrunt]

3. don't shoot the messenger.--especially when he/she tells the truth.

4. He's not the fucking messenger. He drove the fucking get away car...

5. If it helps sway public opinion,

I'll take it.

7. BINGO !!! - We Have A Winnah !!!

6. Geez... I'm Not Celebrating Him, I'm Putting It Out There For Peolpe To See

Nothing more, nothing less.

God help us from the censors.

:wtf:

8. Shoot me now. And DUers have a problem with CLINTON??? Christ.

12. You know, he's not a threat--he's not running for anything. What's your problem?

9. Well, he's saying more than my rep(D) who agees with Petraus and Bush.

Brian Baird, who is a supposed "anti-war liberal" who thinks we should pay more taxes for the war and more kids should enlist.

[TwilightGardener]

10. If anyone watched the interview, he wasn't calling the whole war

policy a dirty trick--he was just specifically talking about Chimpy sending Petraeus out to push the surge. I don't know why HuffPo always fucks up stories like that. Anyhoo, the inteview was great, if you get a chance to watch it in Political Videos. I wish John Cornyn's response was included in the clip--curious to see how other Repubs would respond.
