You have them whether you like it or not. I think Foley and Haggard consider themselves as rehabilitated if that makes you feel any better. CT: What do you think of the deal with NK? It's not substantively different than the bad deal that Clinton had with North Korea. But now it's a good deal according to Condi Rice and it's a capitulation of the US position according to John Bolton. Where do you [aka Attilla the Hun] stand on it? jttmab

NEWS: TOP U.S. GENERAL CALLS BUSH, CHENEY, LIARS!!!! U.S. general: No evidence Iran is arming Iraqis Pace contradicts claims by other U.S. military, administration officials The Associated Press Updated: 9:27 a.m. MT Feb 13, 2007 URL: msnbc.msn.com JAKARTA, Indonesia - A top U.S. general said Tuesday there was no evidence the Iranian government was supplying Iraqi insurgents with highly lethal roadside bombs, apparently contradicting claims by other U.S. military and administration officials. Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said U.S. forces hunting down militant networks that produced roadside bombs had arrested Iranians and that some of the material used in the devices were made in Iran. “That does not translate that the Iranian government per se, for sure, is directly involved in doing this,” Pace told reporters in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta. “What it does say is that things made in Iran are being used in Iraq to kill coalition soldiers.” His remarks might raise questions on the credibility of the claims of high-level Iranian involvement, especially following the faulty U.S. intelligence that was used to justify the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Three senior military officials in Baghdad said Sunday that the highest levels of Iranian government were responsible for arming Shiite militants in Iraq with the bombs, blamed for the deaths of more than 170 U.S. troops Asked Monday directly if the White House was confident that the weaponry is coming on the approval of the Iranian government, spokesman Tony Snow said, “Yes.” Iran on Monday denied any involvement. “Such accusations cannot be relied upon or be presented as evidence. The United States has a long history in fabricating evidence. Such charges are unacceptable,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini told reporters in Tehran. URL: msnbc.msn.com

<Foley Guckert and Haggard> All stalwarts of Republican "family values". Hypocritical to the core, given to blatant lying and corruption -- the Republican party has been ruined by those whose values are in the gutter, like you. The Republican party long ago had good reason to be proud of standing for something positive -- but that is all in the past now. In its place are the true dregs of society and the sleazy rabid ideologues that tried to use these dregs to scare people into suporting their ugly anti-democratic policies. You should prepare yourself for being recognized as an enemy of the Republican party.
