2. Watching now,
even though I'm buzzed and have to go to bed. It certainly seems pretty critical, I heard something to the effect if chimp loses this argument he loses the pResidency (again), interesting.

3. Laura Bush has input on the spending???
she wants X amount of $$$ for hospitals. Not that its a bad thing, but why is she getting to say what the money is spent on?

8. McCain says 50-55 billion more
Edited on Wed Oct-01-03 10:51 PM by Cush
over the next few years

Ted, some were saying it would cost 100-200billion before it was all over, but the Admin fired them

Biden: Everyone who dissented was sacked. John is right, it will cost an additional 55-70billion before all is said and done. We said this last OCtober

11. Yep
Sacked them all and belittled the ones they couldn't.

No room for truth in an Administration of unilateralist assholes.

9. "Senator mccain
you're close to the administration", yeah that about sums it up. To think I kinda respected this suckup once, he makes me sick. Are we the only ones watching? Oh Biden, I can hardly wait.

13. biden giving chimp advice
to how to get the People to support his rape of Iraq, mccain joining in. What a bunch of asskissing pukes. They are trying and trying and as mccain just said "over and over again" to tell our cabal how to rip us all off.

15. The People will understand
if only chimp levels with us, according to biden. He is one the Democrats that will remain on my lowercase, he deserves it and it IS deliberate. Boy, that was a desperate attempt to shore up our regime and their vision of world empire. mccain is a total tool of the right, any thoughts of him fighting the regime that dragged he and his family through the mud is a complete farce. biden, well what can I say beyond the fact he appears a total waste of flesh and oxygen. What do the voters see in him? I know it COULD be worse, but.
