Big Dawg on Russert flip floping about Beating info out of terrorist |
|
Edited on Sun Sep-30-07 09:26 AM by KoKo01
and using the the Show "24" 's Jack Bauer (sp?) as an example of maybe one wouldn't know if there was a bomb and you had the terrorist in your clutches whether you would "beat it out of him" or not. After thinking about it Big Dawg thinks that Geneva Conventions should stand and that Hillary was probably correct...but if you are Jack Barrow or in that situation "who knows what she would do."
Russert asks what the duties of the "First Man" would be in Hillary Administration and he says he'd do whatever he is asked to do by her. He thinks he might not want to do what Jack Kennedy did with Bobby because he thinks being in a policy position might not be good...
He's being asked about a dynasty. He's kind of giving a commercial for Hillary. Russert's being pretty low key with him.

3. Well...Russert played tape of Clinton saying "beat it out of him" then asked him |
|

2. Nice try, Big Dawg. I think Hillary's cackle has become infectious in the Clinton household. |
|
Did anyone else hear that strained guffaw?

9. He flip flopped...played video of what Cliinton said...and Bill said |
|
now that he thought about it he thought we should follow Geneva... Remember Russert asked Hillary the question at the Debate and Hillary said she disagreed with Bill...or that she would "talk to him" about his opinion.

16. Flip-flop - isn't that the right-wing phrase that helped to defeat Kerry |
|
Whose side are you on anyway?

5. Bill Clinton has the finest political mind |
|
there is. He was great about explaining his position on torture and also Hillary's. However, the best part was his analysis of the Republican race.

6. It's a bullshit question. |

It reminds me of 12-year-old girls telling scary stories at a slumber party.

7. I thought he handled it okay. Russert is a slimeball.... |
|
OT, but I noticed him possibly being called the "First Man"? Wouldn't it actually be "First Gentlman"? I mean, we didn't call HRC the "First Woman"...

is cool with me. I wonder why this was the only thing you could get out of the interview - something negative.
Hasn't there been enough negativity WRT the Clinton name here lately?
I'm sick to death of it.

18. The Way I Understand It |
|
Clinton said if a terrorist had a stick of dynamite hooked up to a person's ass and his accomplice was tortured until he said how to defuse it most folks wouldn't have a problem with that...
That seems, well, obvious...
He also said if the person doing the tortuing was wrong he should be prepared to suffer the consequences...
Sounds Lincolnesque:
"If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference."
I thought that was a measured, candid, and thoughtful answer...
