1. Rummy just made the Hitler comparison RE:Elections

:eyes:

[phoebe]

13. please be a "wee" bit more forthcoming

(couldn't resist that!) seriously though..

[corarose]

15. Was he looking in the mirror when he made the comparison?

Where are the little red panties that you use to have on your messages?

[underpants]

2. Teddy Kennedy is on NOW!

Sick'em

[SoCalDem]

3. He's luck I am not asking the questions..

I would be yelling at him:.. "THAT'S NOT WHAT I ASKED YOU...YOU LYING SACK OF SHIT...ANSWER THE DAMNED QUESTION.....

[underpants]

7. Did you have ANY involve in preparing the false info on Niger nukes

That would be my question.

So you did not establish your own "intelligence agency" (the OSP) to provide flimsy and (some other word) support for policies that had already been decided?

Come on Secretary the Grand Jury is waiting for your answer.....

[SoCalDem]

4. OOH.. Now Banjo-boy is questioning him

Sessions....


Doing the "Judge Ito " routine from SNL...

...You're a great man, a wonderful man, a handsome man.. You're doing a wonderful job in Eye-rack.....

:puke:

[Augspies]

9. Bryd: "Well, I'd like to know now"

Rummy: "Umm. Ahhh."

[Rose Siding]

5. This repub is TOTALLY out of touch!

Does he read ANY news? He only sees Iraq AND Afghanistan as huuuuuge victories and has no praise strong enough for the wits.

He went on about how baaaad Saddam was and the 3000 killed with nerve gas and how awful nerve gas is and somehow connected that as a threat to us (wasn't that over 10 yrs ago when we did nothing and now have found NOTHING like nerve gas in Iraq?)

Just lauditory praise and sloppy kisses.

OH BYRD'S turn!!!

[Rose Siding]

6. Byrd is questioning

B- What is our spend rate?

Ans- I'll have to get that for you.

B- Can you give us an estimate?

Ans- No

B- Well, someone ought to know. I want to know now.

Ans- It isn't that simple

B- I've been around here 51 years. There must be some number you can cite.

Ans Not that fast.

B- I read it's around 3 and a half billion a month. You have the numbers when you want appropriations.

Called recess

Byrd's our bulldog

[zls44]

8. I've got a question

If I'm there, I play stupid.

"Oh wait...those killings...HEY! YOU WERE IN CHARGE OF THE DOD THEN WERENT YOU! Oh man, you look SO BAD right now."

[Rose Siding]

12. That was the questionER making the point.

They are unreal.

[huckleberry]

10. byrd is relentless!

I've been here 51 years. There must be some figure. I'd like to know how much we're spending. Where are these numbers coming from that we're reading about?

Rummy is stuttering!

[Cheswick2.0]

27. I love Senator Byrd

I admire that man and it will be a sad sad day when he is gone.

[Augspies]

11. Rummy is supposed to be a hotshot

corporate CEO, and he doesn't know the cost of his operation currently.

What a total fucker.

Bryd is not being polite. I love it.

Jeremy

[Nottingham]

14. Byrd! Go Getem Birdie!! Go Get erm!

:bounce:

[MostlyBlackCat2]

16. More details please

what are they saying? please post whatever you can for the cube dwellers.

thanks! (note-i'm not new. just had to re-register)

[revcarol]

17. Is it on C-Span 2 or C-Span 3?

Plus I keep getting "fatal error. Must shut down."
You may have to give us play by play...'cause this is SOOOOOimportant.

[Rose Siding]

18. It was 3 but they broke for something

I can't figure from the site when they will resume.

[Mithras61]

23. Probably broke so Rummy could...

go change his drawers, and so they could get Byrd off Rumfilled's backside. Good ol' Byrd. I hope he lights Rummy up like an old christmas tree!

[0007]

19. Keep the heat on these ruthless money grabbing liars-

My computer is doing a Cheney and can't get c-span3, so keep me posted I love hearing from y'all.

Looking at the Dell, 4600C series, any feed back will help.

[revcarol]

20. Is that what it's called: doing a Cheney?

Usually no trouble hooking up with C-Span. So far my computer has errored out 4 times, on both 2 & 3. Something wrong at C-Span or what?

[remfan]

21. Try this

[diamond14]

22. and exactly WHO is looking for the WMD....is anyone in charge?

answer:

well,....welll....blah, blah, blah...and then he told so and so that so and so and so, and now there is welll, well...and blah, blah....well....well...

such a longggg answer and didn't say a thing or answer the question...it's amazing...these THUGS are war criminals...

[AngryWhiteLiberal]

24. My question is...WHY ISN'T C-SPAN 1 following this!

Hmmm, let's see...oh, yes! We can effectively bury live coverage by putting it on a cable channel only covered by a pittance of cable carriers.

JB

[goforit]

31. What about CNN....NBC....&FAUX??????????

This makes Watergate look like a day at the beach!!!

[SoCalDem]

35. CNN mentioned it from time to time

and showed a still from the session, accompanied with something like this..."We'll keep track of it and let you know if something happens"...

uh..yeah...right..I BET you will....:eyes:


It's only on cspan3 because congress is in session, and of course the cable stations have to tell us about the "important" stuff that's going on... like pornography on tv, and the latest Laci "evidence", and the guy who killed his family... :(

[diamond14]

25. Tommy: ...as we think through the (Iraq) military structure in the

next 10 or 20 YEARS.......\

(whew...that's a long time)

it's over ( a four hour session)...rummy tried to leave (pressing business he claimed), but they are taking him into closed door session to ask more about WMD....

__________________

lots of politicians are also attorneys...and they know when criminals evade answering questions, change the subject, and all that...and they also know that the "We the People" were listening to that session, that you can get a transcript and tape from C-span...and this is BIG, real BIG....

where's shrub ? dilly-dallying around in Africa while the ME, Afganistan, Iraq burn....and the WMD major problem is in several Congressional investigations.....la la da la la da la.....

[MostlyBlackCat2]

29. How do I get a transcript?

I want to see what happened, and the play by play doesn't seem to happen anymore at DU. If you've got a link to where to get the trx that would be great. thanx!

[FubarFly]

30. You can watch the video using real player

[diamond14]

26. from DU discussions.....here's another: from Senator Levin (MI)

Question:

Mr. Rumsfeld, the day after the President's SOTU you repeated the claim that Iraq was attempting to obtain Nuclear materials from Nigeria. Were you told by the CIA, before or after, that these documents were in fact forgeries?

Answer:
I can't give an answer to that at this time.



Can't you see what Levin is doing? He's going to interview CIA officials who are going to defend themselves with the days they handed over there assessments.

[ewagner]

28. ....and Rummy knows it...

Rumsfeld has been around a long time, he knows how this game is played so he's going to waffle and weasel his way out of making any kind of definitive statement..............

[goforit]

32. I hope those CIA Agents step up to the plate.....Nothing worse than

going down for a blithering idiot!!!!!!!!

Just think of the millions they could make just reporting the truth!

More people would be signing book deals than you can shake a stick at.

Hey if they risk their lives every day for these Slime Balls ,
why not risk your life and make a hell of alot of money doing it by
just telling the truth?

Hope they know that this is a tyrranny and not a Democracy.
Our Country is depending on their valient morals.
There is a right and there is a wrong!!!

Bottom line guys!!!........Humanity needs you ...today!!!!

[Cocoa]

33. Interesting body language

I didn't see this hearing, did Warner cover for Bush? I heard something about how he's capable of getting pissed at the position Bush is putting the republicans in. I wonder if he's contemplating jumping off the ship?
