  • Rhodes---This hideous old snag is a real nut case. Genetically Inferior. I just heard her raving about banks not "renegotiating contracts." She's not mature enough to know that when a person signs his name on a contract, then that's the way it is. Randy Rhodes--- a raving, immature neurotic mess. from--- MSW, University of Washington, 1961 and 30 years US Military.

  • Randi NAILED those little chicken-hawk douche-bags!! EXACTLY!! If you repug spoiled MORONS love war so much, GO FIGHT ONE yourself!!! And stop leaving it up to the poor kids!! Bush...Cheney.....What Pussies...I wish I had a rich daddy to get ME out of dying in an oil war!!

  • LOL this is so freaking pathetic

  • in "ear rock" haha. she thinks she knows everything because she was in the army. and you are not only as good as the weakest among you. that is not true.

  • Did you see Ozzy peek out at 0:22? LOL!

  • He is not there you coward because someone has to stay home and defend our country against you and your glib traitor friends and your unfortunately very effective battle against freedom.  YOU go over there girlie girl and stand up for your right to be a free feminist and fight for those women who are enslaved. In the meantime the people you refer to as ChickenHawks will continue to fight along side the other 10 out of 11 people in the military who do not have direct combat roles.

  • @gravesideservice2

    me too.

    she is an insult to the great axeman and should change her name

  • lol i know!

  • I subscribe to the RR show. I'm missing you Randi. -

  • shes a fuckin anoyying douchenut

  • @Sousanators what's a douchenut ?

  • Hhahaha, same here, they both suck balls, Randi R doesn't deserve the name

  • That Kid is just another example of a pussy Republican....

    15 years from now he'll be running for President

  • I thought this was the great randy rhodes, not these two dumbasses

  • That's not Randy Rhoads's last name (if you are referring to the guitarist.)

    common mistake.

  • @EvilDescends his name's randy RHOADS. not rhodes man. :P lol

  • i think that anybody who saw this video was looking for the guitarist

  • how is this randy rhodes?? he played guitar this is some crazy badass chick yelling at some little prep 20 year old

  • She rocked when she played guitar for Ozzy.

  • Yeah, definitely.  Who doesn't love that Crazy Train solo?

  • "Something more than mere support for a war without fighting in it is required to earn the "chicken hawk" label. Chicken-hawkism is the belief that advocating a war from afar is a sign of personal courage and strength, and that opposing a war from afar is a sign of personal cowardice and weakness. A "chicken hawk" is someone who not merely advocates a war, but believes that their advocacy is proof of the courage which those who will actually fight the war in combat require."

    -Glenn Greenwald

  • Created by hate-filled Democrats but this creature is now turning on its own!

    Democrats shouldn't be shocked when their attack dogs turn on them, they are the ones feeding all of this hate.

    HA HA Your chickens are coming home to roost HA HA!

  • Yeah, with our Democrat majority in the House and Senate and now a Democratic president, our attack dogs are really turning on us. Dumbass.

  • Damn What a bitch

  • chickenhawk republicans like nothing more then a hard cock to penetrate them up their ass

  • Chicken hawks are the lowest of males, who sit in safety while young brave men and WOMEN risk their lives for our freedom. They are pussy war mongers.

  • Who let Ben out of high school early today? Better bring a note to school tomorrow Ben...and do us all a favor and sign up for the war1!

  • I don't usually agree with Randi Rhodes, but she's absolutely right about that little sissy weasel. Chickenhawks make me sick to my stomach.

  • She's got a point about the chickenhawks, but god, she trivializes it with all her shrieking. Makes her sound like a blaring siren.

  • That's because the idiot to whom she was speaking wouldn't shut up and listen to her.

  • The problem is, Stella, that she does this all the time - this is no exception. Her points are constantly trivialized by the fact that she's simply too shrill to allow people to respond, and that in itself cuts off all capacity for rational debate.

  • You make a good point, Mystrohan. Women are often silenced in our society and get shrill to make a point as a result. I would counter that men often get shrill, also.

    I hope we agree that chickenhawk was shrill and incapable of rational debate. I'm sure Rhodes' frustration arose because she's a US Air Force veteran (1977-79, Airman First Class). As a veteran, I can't blame her anger against the little snot who never served.

    I do love Rhodes. She's astute and brilliant. Thanks, Mystrohan.

  • charvelcbr600rr

    You're a very patient man. I'd have her down in 30 seconds

  • You wouldn't have a chance...

  • Isn't that the dumb bitch who got drunk, fell, and she and her leftist whacko friends blew it up into a targeted assault by "evil right wingers"?

  • What an intelligent comment. Is this the way you treat our veterans? Randi Rhodes served in the military. Are you the Chickenhawk to whom she spoke?

  • Why the hell are you trying to make her sound like she is some damn war hero?She served in a cargo plane and never saw combat.Randi probably joined the military to get off of cocaine.

  • So is that a "NO"?

  • Is Randi drunk again? I hope she gets help before she kills herself

  • Randi Rhodes is one of those people who love to throw their damn service around whenever they are talking about politics.She was in the airforce on a cargo ship and never saw combat so for her to pretend like she's fuckin G.I Jane is wrong.Real heroes never seek glory.

  • So what did the little chickenhawk accomplish? She's not seeking glory, she's seeking justice.

  • Love it when these rich little republican skippy chickenhawks get exposed for the cowards they really are. Randi owns this little punk.

  • Another bitch Republican burned again. They make it so easy. Little closted, nancy-boys.

  • I have nude photos of Randi Rhodes. Contact me if you want to see them.

  • Why don't the chickhawks go to war?

  • Shut the f!@# up.

  • No my friend I like her voice. Never heard her sing though.

  • The voice may be one thing... But the Body... I luv BUSTY women LOL.

  • She is very pretty.

  • Her and Stephanie Miller... YES!!

  • He's a fuckin' chickenhawk.

  • "Why won't liberals shut the hell up?"

    Because they're right! I don't understand why ANYONE would listen to Republicans. They have been consistently, 100% wrong about EVERYTHING! As if always being wrong wasn't bad enough, they still want people to take their uneducated, naive point of view seriously. Why won't rightwingers shut the hell up?

  • I can't stand these chickenhawks. Chicken Shack better.

  • This kid looks like everyone I went to high school with...a chubby, smug, parrot with no soul nor original thought. She schooled his ass though, my sentiments exactly, for all of them: YOU GO! Send YOUR smug kid. I cannot believe I haven't heard more (any) calls for Bush to send his daughters...I'd like to hear about his "price of freedom" then!

  • I LOVE RANDI.

    she always has great points.

    because she studies and gives us facts to look at.

  • I like her too. Especially her solo on Crazy Train. she was a great guitar player. Now she talks on the radio.

  • uhhh wow how is this related to Randy Rhoads... the guitar player...

  • I don't know, man, she talks on the radio now.

  • She may have an annoying voice... But she have a point.

  • I think she has a good voice.

  • I love Randi

  • ???????? you mskitti youre such and asshole

  • which one of you jokers put this crap up here?

  • Randy Rhodes got SPANKED!

  • I want to spank randy rhodes.

  • lol i was looking for the guitarist for Ozzy's band, but i found this annoying bitch! she's wont shut up!

  • Sexist

  • that bitch was so annoying!

  • FUCKIN LOVE RANDY RHODES!!!

  • it's randi rhodes!!

  • that is NOT randy rhodes!!!!!!!!

  • Randi Rhodes knows it!! She's right on and man alive is she right on the money! The other guy cannot even begin to come up to her level of discourse and experience.

  • that guy is a pussy.

  • will randy be with mr. alistar crowly, anton levey, marque de sade, ted bundy, jeffery dommer, surfin with satan or what? did they ever question satan's authority? o, i thought it was randy rhodes, the guitarist, but the comment will remain true for her too

  • Bye, now.

  • So does that mean Germany and Japan are still totalitarian dictatorships? Shit. Sorry, I didn't get the memo.

  • I didn't say the Democrats, I said the Left. And yes, we have tried to put in place sane and humane democracies and failed, only to start all over again. But that doesn't mean we're this diabolical,Machiavellian, basically evil country. Just the opposite, IMHO.

  • This is the standard Illuminati/Halliburton/Loose Change/Christian Right/Bohemian Grove/Tinfoil Hat Club stupidity of the Left. How about Bush watched 3,000 of his citizens incinerated one morning and decided to ACT - to make sure that that would never happen again? As in removing those regimes that mass-produce terrorists?

  • The majority are not Neo-Marxists, they're just war-weary. That's understandable. But the Bush Derangement Syndrome that the far left preaches is pretty nauseating.

  • Sounds like your definition of dementia is anyone who doesn't believe in the current Neo-Marxist bullshit that passes for dissent nowadays.

  • You're absolutely right - no innocent people died in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the Civil War, WW1, the Spanish-American War, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Greneda, or the Gulf War. Only this war, which wasn't about liberation, caused the deaths of innocent people. Thanks for clearing that up.

  • And, again, all the killing that these Islamofascists are doing is not deliberate as far as you're concerned - it's cause and effect. Ridiculous.

  • Allowing Saddam's torture chambers, rape rooms, mass graves,unchecked brutality, gassing thousands of Kurds to go on unchallenged for so long was because of a lack of conscience.

  • "along with the enemy, some civilians were killed" - tyr to keep up, there will be a test later.

  • Saddam's forces didn't surrender. We bombed his war machine into submission and along with the enemy, some civilians were killed, just like in any war. It's not pretty, and it never will be. However, the terrorists/insurgents have DELIBERATELY killed civilians at a rate of about 15-1 to civilians our forces accidentally killed. No difference to you, I'm sure.

  • You are excusing radical Islamic murderers again. We showed up, so these savages HAVE to start bombing and killing everyone. Doesn't work,sorry.

  • YOU said WE have have caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands. I only wanted you to clarify who exactly is killing them. Your fuzzy logic is pretty hard to follow.

  • It is disgraceful to blame our troops for the actions of terrorists.

  • Senator Al Gore said in 1992 that that Saddam was trying to acquire WMD's, had a working relationship with Al Qaeda, and that Iraq, at that time "had approx. 1,400 terrorists" operating out of it, Was he lying?

  • I am trying to get you to understand that if the terrorists/insurgents stop killing people, this war is over. It is unfair to blame THEIR savage acts on the presence of our troops.

  • WE deliberately bombed innocent people in Iraq, not Saddam's war machine? WE starved them, NOT Saddam, who made sure his Sunnis DIDN'T starve? Why is it that the terrorists/insurgents in Iraq have no free will? They blow up markets full of women and children and it's OUR fault?

  • You said we've caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people in Iraq - who are you saying killed them?

  • OK, Italy's Nazi-allied regime was overthrown by our troops, not liberated.

  • Blaming the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis BY THE ENEMY on OUR troops is pretty disgraceful, but you're not the first person I've heard this lie from. So, please, just stop spreading it.

  • Sorry,once again, to dissapoint, but I get to support the mission, not just the troops, even though I never served and now am too old to serve. Also,BTW, I am not asking you or anyone else to serve. Only that we support those that do.

  • Since Japan attacked us at Pearl Harbor,why did we declare war on Germany also? Why did we liberate France and Italy from the Nazis if the military is only for defense?

  • One more time. You are free to say the war sucks and is meaningless, whether YOU served or not. Why is it that anyone who says that the liberation of 27 million Iraqis was a good thing must enlist?

  • If you think this guy is bad, look on Youtube for Matthew Continetti on C-Span.

  • What she said, basically, was that you shouldn't support the war unless you enlist. You and I are free to express our opinions about the war, whether we served or not.

  • Thank you Randy Rhodes.

  • She's not making any sense.

  • EVERYONE gets to voice their opinion on the war. And you DON'T have to like it.

  • Why is it that millions of people who never served can oppose the war, but no-one can support the war unless they've served? What fascist liberal bullshit.

  • chicken hawks love the war but are too chicken to fight it themselves (or maybe they just don't really believe it is that important after all)

  • That guy is trying to say they're not getting body army because the left doesn't support the war? MMM K, either he doesn't know how the goverment works or he's making up BS that might sound good to others who don't know how it works.

  • You know if somebody talks about how important and noble the war in Iraq is and then asks "Where can I sign up?", I might not agree with that person, but I can respect them. I have no respect for these people who think it should only be OTHER people who risk their lives, OTHER people who spill their blood, and OTHER families who mourn.

  • If you like her or not, that doesn't matter because the woman is right.

  • Stupid cunt. Don't disgrace that name!!!

  • haha

  • I thought Randy Rhodes was a deceased guitar god. I thought "chicken hawking" was a termed used by the rapper Ice Cube when describing women. This is a confusion link.

  • lol about 0:30 he said "just because i support the war doesn't mean i ALWAYS have to go fight it." How many times has he fought it?

  • Hey, what was that I heard about AIR AMERICA? BANKRUPT? LOL... figures! A clue to how much SENSE those who were featured there made...

  • And Randi Rhodes beat Rush Limbaugh in the local market where she used to broadcast. I wouldn't be so quick to read anything in to ratings, SanDiegoGreg13. Which periodical was NUMERO UNO in the U.S. for many years?? The NATIONAL ENQUIRER. What conclusions can we draw from that, SanDiegoGreg13?

  • budavol PT II: A self-made man, he worships his creator. I heard he's ill - hope it's nothing trivial. He's so dull he causes dullness in others! I'm sure he had some good qualities but he obviously worked hard and overcame them. While some cause happiness wherever they go, he causes it WHENEVER he goes. He reminds me of an envelope without any address on it or letter inside it. And finally, he clearly has delusions of adequacy.

  • My, God, SanDiegoGreg13. You've really put some effort to writing some dreary melodrama about me. And I'm touched. REALLY, I am. I wouldn't expect any invitations to the Pulitzers just YET, however. Also, your abilities as a psychoanalyst leave something to be desired, SanDiegoGreg13.

  • BUDAVOL QUOTE: "Oh, well. A 'chickenhawk' is a right-winger who assiduously avoids military service, but is only too eager to send others." Hmm, I didn't know BILL CLINTON was a right-winger... I stand corrected!

  • He's NOT a right-winger, therefore, he can not fit the definition of "chickenhawk." Got it, SanDiegoGreg13?

    For examples of chickenhawks, see RUSH LIMBAUGH, GEORGE W. BUSH, BEN FERGUSON, DICK ARMEY, MANY others.

  • "HAWK" denotes anyone who's seen as ready to use arms to defend this country and yes, while there are pitiful few on the left with the balls to do so (and Rhodes has NO BALLS so she doesn't count LOL) once again budavol proves with his own posts HE DOESN'T HAVE A CLUE because being a "HAWK" is independent of "right" and "left" and being chicken, well budavol hasn't 'fessed up to any military service despite being challenged to do so, so...

  • WRONG!! "Hawk" is a term for a politician who is eager for a military solution, or it can be used for ANYONE eager for a military solution. Rhodes has got more balls than a lot of stupid right-wingers put together, SanDiegoGreg13. YOU obviously have NO CLUE about American History, SanDiegoGreg13. ENCORE: "chickenhawk" only refers to RIGHT-WINGERS. Got it?

  • CLINTON was all for using military force in more than one location during his term, hence he's a "HAWK" and he RAN from military service, hence a "CHICKEN"... put the two together and he's a CHICKENHAWK, but no, I don't expect an IDIOT like budavol to see or understand such complex issues/terms...

  • ENCORE: Bill Clinton can not be a "chickenhawk" because the term is used to apply to RIGHT-WINGERS, SanDiegoGreg13. Why can't your brain grasp this?  You can try to reinvent the term if you like, but your efforts are far too lame to result in any success, SanDiegoGreg13.

  • I was correct - budavol has not the IQ to grasp the facts nor the sense to know his own posts prove him wrong. I'm done wasting my time with this idiot - a little research shows the National Enquirer was popular with the LEFT. He's proven he's hopelessly biased - HAWK applies to anyone who is for the use of military force - those on the left/democrats have often been called hawks as well. And chicken - well budavol has never served, which makes him one.

  • Locate even ONE wrong statement I have made, SanDiegoGreg13. A little research shows the National ENQUIRER was the most popular publication in American in the 1980s. Sort of like Fox News, eh, SanDiegoGreg13? And you're not biased? BWAHAHAHAAA!! Right! A "hawk" is eager for a military solution. "budavol has never served." What's THAT statement based on, he SanDiegoGreg13?

  • budavol PT I: A modest guy - obviously with a lot to be modest about. The more he comments, the less time one wastes reading. He compresses the most words into the dumbest conclusions. I would not attend his funeral but would certainly approve of it. He claims he has no enemies but is universally disliked by those he considers friends.

  • Oh, well, thank you, SanDiegoGreg13. You're assuming you would even HAVE the opportunity to attend my funeral. Don't hold your breath. "...he is universally disliked by those he considers friends." And where did you get THAT stupid assertion from? Your hind quarters, SanDiegoGreg13?

  • As usual, because he CANNOT refute it, budavol avoids the prime issue: Rhodes attempts to assert that unless/until you serve in the military you aren't supporting them and aren't allowed to take part in the debate - which is pure loony leftism at it's best, just like budavol's comments (review them and see what I mean).  Who you are, budavol, is demonstrated by what you say, how you act, and has NOTHING to do with me or what I say.

  • Hell, you didn't even know what the prime issue was BY YOUR OWN ADMISSION, SanDiegoGreg13. Rhodes asserted NO SUCH THING. Watch the video again. LOCATE any assertion I have made that is "loony left." That is just pure stupidity, SanDiegoGreg13.

  • You can't have it both ways. Are the Rep. fighting a war on Islam or are they fascists like the enemy of moderate Islam.

  • Randi really. That guy would be fragged in 30 seconds.

  • Does anyone know if the little boy has joined the military, yet? Or is he profitting from it? ANYONE?

  • owned. randi rhodes is THE BEST voice for the progressive movement in the USA. she's my hero.

  • Best thing about Randi Rhodes is the exhaustive research she puts into her show. That lady can quote any obscure subcommittee minutes within two seconds. Messy Marvin (the Yankees supporter) got served big-time here.

    Hey Marv: Nice suit. JC Penney? Sears?

  • you feel that way because you too are no doubt a chicken hawk like that sissy-boy she shot down.

    terry wallace

  • Smack down! Randi you have a way of saying exactly whats on my mind. You are my hero!

  • Randi Rhodes is Fucking Awsome!

  • Randi is the whore of the left. She spent her time in the USAF on her back.

  • How do you know? Were you there when she served?

  • You are no doubt a sniveling chicken hawk who not only has never served but also has never left Mama's lap.

  • There's a reason why Air America fell into bankruptcy. Nobody in a America agrees with that trash talk. The FEW people in Berkely California that listen to Air America, aren't enough to support the station. Another win for America!

  • Riiight. Nobody in America agrees with Randi Rhodes...which is why they voted the Republicans out of office last month with a decisive margin of victory. Nobody in America agrees with Randi Rhodes...which is precisely why a majority of Americans think we're not winning the war. Suuure. Nobody agrees with Randi Rhodes. :-P

  • All these idiots talking about chickenhawks... how many spent ANY time in the service? Probably none - they talk the talk but can't walk the walk.

  • How much time do you think that chickenhawks such as Ben Ferguson and Rush Limbaugh have spent in the military? THEY are the ones who talk the talk but are scared brainless to walk the walk.

  • Until you mentioned him and I googled him I didn't even know who Ben Ferguson was... I'm a MODERATE INDEPENDENT but I guess you missed that. Like you missed the point of my message trying to divert the topic to something else instead of discussing it. Typical loony lefty loser.

  • Oh, come on, SanDiegoGreg13, Ferguson was in the freaking video on this page. I don't care what political persuasion you are, your charge was baseless, as shown by your own admission here. You might try googling "Randi Rhodes" and investigate HER military service, which was more than Ferguson's and Limbaugh's combined.

  • My comments stand as made. You're just another whining loony lefty and I really don't have time for petty bickering that you seem to enjoy.  If you're going to say something, please try and make it worth my time to read, much less reply please. So far you've failed utterly so unless you improve, I'm done.

  • In reply to budavol, that this loony lefty rant by Randy Rhodes is typical of the left. Her premise, echoed by budavol, is that until you serve you have no say in matters concerning war and military. Putting aside that budavol no doubt didn't serve a day (PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong) in uniform, that's how the left tries to stifle debate - by putting up some BS rule to limit other's free speech while expecting to get away with the most outrageous comments themselves.

  • More baseless calumny and innuendo. Oh, well. A "chickenhawk" is a right-winger who assiduously avoids military service, but is only too eager to send others. Exhibit A: Ben Ferguson, age 24. LOCATE where I or anyone has tried to stifle free speech around here. That charge is baseless with a capital "B." On the other hand, it is not surprising coming from you, SanDiegoGreg13.

  • One glaring false premise was that I "HAD" to know who Ferguson was - I had never seen nor heard him, he wasn't identified in the video, so PROVEN here is the FALSE PREMISE you started with that I had to know who he was because he was in the video... typical jumping to false conclusions without facts or evidence - TYPICAL LOONY LEFTISM!

  • WRONG!!! The original FALSE PREMISE in this thread was from YOU, SanDiegoGreg13, in slamming "idiots who talk about chikenhawks" and "how much time did they spend in the military." FALSE PREMISE: Those who say "chickenhawk" never spent time in the military. PREMISE REFUTED BY: Randi Rhodes, who was in the Air Force. Your charge of "loony leftism" is just plain stupid, SanDiegoGreg13, like your ridiculous excuse for a "video."

  • Then they stand refuted as made, as Randi Rhodes's military service can attest. I have seen nothing but baseless innuendo in your remarks. You just can't stand the taste of your own medicine, can you, SanDiegoGreg13?

  • I have to apologize - I forgot you're used to being spoon fed all your talking points to regurgitate, just as you're regurgitating Randy Rhodes' talking points to me so in my next reply post I'll spell it out for you.

  • That's funny. While reading through your comments, SanDiegoGreg13, I thought I was reading a blog from the Reverend Moon. Put down that WASHINGTON TIMES and pick up a REAL newspaper, SanDiegoGreg13.

  • P.S., BEN FERGUSON wasn't identified in the video, I've never seen nor heard him, nor heard of him, until budavol mentioned him but as usual budavol starts his arguments with false premises - SOOO typical of the loony left, who seem only able to regurgitate talking points they're spoon fed.

  • Locate ONE false premise I have put forward, SanDiegoGreg13. I was only reply to your unoriginal skid mark. Oh, so if anyone disagrees with you, that person must therefore be "loony left?" Welcome to McCarthyism, SanDiegoGreg13.

  • Let me sum it up for you. Randi Rhodes and her ilk were on a station nobody supported so now they're out of jobs. Meanwhile her opponents are doing just fine. You do the math.

  • Duh...they are still on the air, and by the way, Randi was in the military. As usual the Righty's never do research or any kind of homework to check out the facts. EVERY singe expert on the Middle East said there would be civil war in Iraq before the invasion and no one listened. Hmmmm....who was right about that?

  • bush put us into this fire as you call it he wants to destroy america to pave the way for his neofascism

  • Theproblem is that most dems can't separate the importance of stabilising the middle east and their hatred of the Bush administration. They feel that if things work out there it will somehow mean that this whole administration was a better alternative than a dem's. For this reason some of them want us out of Iraq regardless of the long term consequences, rather than risk Pres. Bush actually pulling this one out of the fire.

  • Yep, the left has to get over their hate for anything right. They don't realise that they'd be the first to be beheaded under an Islamist regime.

  • Staying there as long as we have now...do you think that's producing the desired results?

  • Yes, I do. Iran and Al-Qaeda are sending their forces there to fight instead of here. If we do pullout, who will be responsible for the ethnic cleansing that will result. Who will you blame for the coming war with Iran, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and a coerced Iraq? Because Iraq will give them Nukes to attack Israel and Europe is totally emasculated.

  • Hogwash, blutsturmer. Iraq is an unmitigated disaster and we need to get our troop out of that deadly situation. Who is responsible for this sorry state of affairs? George W. Bush.

  • (I meant IRAN giving nukes to those guys.) Granted it is not the same war we started fighting and it isn't going well. Don't be a typical Lib and complain without a suggestion. What would YOU have the U.S. do here out? Who just came out wanting to help ;) in Iraq, Syria.

  • "...a typical Lib...complain without a suggestion." Showing quite a bit of who you are, eh, blutsturmer? I would begin a graduated withdrawal NOW, ending in 2 years AT THE LATEST. At the same time, I would work with the U.N. to see about sending in a peacekeeping force and inspectors.

  • Tried getting the U.N. ,Kofi said no. His son was making too much money. Blue helmets run in Israel from Hamas and Hesbullah. What will they do in Iraq? We are going to start phasing down, not out, in the spring. Inspectors, to inspect what? How many times they can run from the insurgents while stuffing as many bribes in their pockets at the same time. Turn of phrase only works if you show me incorrect. You have yet to show anything new. What about Syria?

  • Bush didn't try enough. Bush is incompetent as a negotiator. The ony "phase" I'm hearing about is "plus-up," which is such a recipe for disaster that even neocons aren't buying it. Inspect what? How about the political state of affairs and level of tension? And Syria? As Pat Buchanan said, Why won't Bush simply pick up the phone and talk to that head of state?

  • He tried going to the U.N and he sent Colin Powell. He tried to get them to comply with the full extent of res. 678. They wouldn't. Syria wants in to subvert this government as it did in Lebanon. I don't know if the reinforcements are a good idea or not. I am not a military analyst and neither are you. The U.N. can inspect all it wants when it sends troops to secure the country and help in the reconstruction.

  • He didn't try--and isn't trying--ENOUGH, blutsturmer. Bush is an INCOMPETENT negotiator. Why wouldn't he pick up the freaking phone and talk to Syria? MANY military experts have called this Iraq debacle one of the worst military offensives of all time.
