2. Did you just hear her on Blitzer's show?

Senator Boxer said "he had to have Daddy Bush come out and fix it" right there on the air!
Backbone indeed!

7. Barbara Was Great On CNNservative Today

She wouldn't bite on the typical Leslie Blitzer "you hate *" crap...stuck to the issue of Iraq and how Rice didn't tell it straight. This lady impresses me more every time I hear her...the true voice of truth and conscious in a country that desperately needs one.

Kudos to California Democrats for re-electing her with such a large margin.

8. oh yes! and I can't wait for Tuesday....

Boxer and BYRD and others ripping on Condi....

music to my ears!
