an INSULT TO CLELAND -- the TX land commissioner will greet him?

[grasswire]

What a crock.

An INSULT. Bah!

[A_Possum]

1. * hiding behind MORE veterans

SLimy little coward.

[grasswire]

2. grrrrrr...this is infuriating

Like the king sending out a footman to greet a commoner.

GRRRRRRRR!

[wndycty]

3. Yup. . .

. . .Bush is not man enough to meet with Cleland, a former senator, U.S. Veteran’s Administration head and decorated disabled war veteran.

[grasswire]

6. you forgot the part...

...about how Cleland was a victim of the slime machine.

[seabeyond]

4. man what about texas hospitality. any texas i know

even though i am a democrat would welcome me in their home for at least a cold glass of water after such a long trip

look where they place the reporters a roll of hay behind them. like they grow hay stuff or have horses or cows to eat it. what a stupid picture

[Sparkly]

5. Right --supposedly with a letter accusing Kerry of double-standard

They're saying Kerry only wants to allow those vets who agree with him to "enter the debate," as I heard it. Those who agree with Kerry would be those who agree with the NAVY and consider it over the line to challenge the way the NAVY issued awards to ALL its veterans!!

[Cocoa]

7. Cleland didn't go there for the TLC

[MidwestTransplant]

8. Un I'm sorry, but the President is busy chasing Barney's tail.

[Dookus]

9. to be fair...

the Texas land commissioner is more powerful than the Governor.

[wndycty]

10. But he is a state official and definately not an administration official

:kick:

[cally]

11. It's the highest ranking veteran in their Admin.

that's willing to do this. ;-) Yeah, it's an insult. The chickenhawks are afraid to meet with real veterans and heroes.

[grasswire]

13. good point

Maybe no other veteran was willing to insult Cleland.

George was too busy playing golf with the royal sceptre.

Fie on King George!

[gratuitous]

12. Ha, ha! Bush screwed the pooch

The ONLY thing he could have or should have done was to come out and meet Cleland and Rassmann personally, invited them in, and accepted the letter. Any deviation from this, and Stupidhead looks like the cowardly little shit-slinger he is.

Since he didn't meet his visitors personally, and didn't invite them in, Stupidhead looks like . . . Well, you get the idea.

[RobertDevereaux]

15. Yep, moral cowardice alll the way. n/t

[dennis4868]

14. I heard that when....

Bush found out Cleland was on the way, Bush ran to the Alabama National Guard for a dental checkup....okay bad joke...it was worth a try.
