    He has a lot more front-line political experience than either Hilary or Obama. Check his bio sometime.

    Nice job by Hillary and Barack, waiting to vote 'no' tonight until the outcome was already decided. Pussies.

    They got shoved to the back of the line. No-one would let them cut.

    "Rack em, Stack em and Pack em." Gutless for Hillary and Obama, at least Biden and Dodd had the balls to vote early.
    Does anybody sincerely believe the situation in Iraq will get noticeably better in the next 18 months? I don't think the Prez does, and what does that say? We're willing to allow 300 or so more soldiers to die so the Prez doesn't have to take the "L" while he's in office? Give me a break.

    Sorry, man. But all that does is tell me he's a career politician (like there aren't enough of those to go around) who someone has in thier back pocket.

    Joe -- Jesus, you know better . . . don't confuse people with the facts. It just gets them upset.

    Thompson's a bosom buddy of Frist's, which is all you have to know.
     
  10. Excuse me, but it's that last one that I believe is the most impressive. Wow. Nine years as a talking head.
    Otherwise, his resume and Hillary's are pretty much the same. (They even worked as young lawyers during Watergate.) He quit the Senate because Senatin' got too hard. Now he's posting columns on the wingnut side of global warming, but the R's are a little terrified at rthe '08 numbers, so he's looking better and better.
