<p>I’m not finding fault - I just want her promise to ferret out the conspirators.</p>

<p>She has an opportunity, should she be elected Speaker, to do the right thing.</p>

<p>Make it happen.:)</p>

42

<p>I’ll make sure she puts it on the list, somewhere between Abramoff and the missing weaponry and the Halliburton boondoggles; perhaps a bit south of Katrina, and off to the side with the pharmaceutical kickbacks.</p>

<p>Stay the course. ;)</p>

43

<p>OK, that works. Get 'em.</p>

<p>If they do the crime, they can do the time - and hire you. :)</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Not really. You just need a state that is interested in enforcing contracts and whatnot, sound fiscal policies (though only to an extent, as may countries have proven), and the occasional capital nudge in the right direction.</p>

<p>I mean, many countries with market (or even capitalist) economies have been bankrupt in terms of social rights.</p>

45

<p>What about the 108 dead troops, killed just in October…deadliest month ever?</p>

<p>Will that affect anyone’s midterm projections?</p>

46

<p>I don’t think the Party of Appeasement and Family Values gives a rat’s patooey about a bunch of dead soldiers, and since it’s impossible to parse out how the Party of the Clueless would have done any differently, I can’t see that it makes any more difference than Lynne Cheney’s novel, and probably less.</p>

<p>Stay the Course.</p>

47

<p>Staying the course is getting costly, in terms of blood and treasure.</p>

48

<p>But it’s awfully good for business:</p>

<p>One person’s cost is another person’s profit.</p>

<p>Stay the course.</p>

49

<p>The war machine has never cared about human life.</p>

<p>I do expect more from individuals who claim to have moral fiber (Party of Moral Values and all)…which clearly that bunch of corporate clowns doesn’t possess.</p>

<p>Shocking, that money means more than human life, which they try so desperately to save when it is in the cell stage.</p>

50

<p>I care a helluva lot about any American serviceman or women. I’m a conservative, too. Blood is no bargain for dollars.</p>

<p>Please do not demean their sacrifice by making it political.</p>

<p>Bash Bush all you want. Sometimes I’ll even help. Leave the service personnel out of the bashing - this includes the officers who make the day-to-day decisions. They are doing what they are told and doing it well.</p>

<p>No 1970s attitudes about our men and women in arms.</p>

51

<p>You got it right: they are doing what they are told.</p>

<p>I don’t demean their sacrifice (though, if it is a sacrifice, it isn’t for me, thank you.) Politicians who use soldiers as pawns are the one who do the demeaning.</p>

<p>If they really cared about the soldiers, when it comes to the living ones, they sure have a funny way of showing it.</p>

52

<p>My husband just arrived home from work. He spent part of the day in the company of a group of military officers, and was with them when the Kerry fiasco of an apology was all over the news. The military guys – all of whom are VERY well educated – were not amused.</p>

53

<p>I don’t demean their sacrifice (though it isn’t a sacrifice for me either, thanks). I know they are doing what they are told.</p>

<p>I demean and blame those who put our servicemen/women in harm’s way, because the almighty dollar is more important than these soldiers’ lives.</p>
