1. "Have you paid any attention? Do you own a television?"

[DeepModem Mom]

12. LOL!

[PaDUer]

2. Armittage is there

to be an asshole and wasting time with his mumble jumble..trying to disgust the team.

[displacedtexan]

9. I want Uncle Fester to STOP LAUGHING!

This is not funny!
Those families have to sit behind this asshole!

[ellie]

3. Have you paid attention

to any of Dr. Rice's t.v. appearances lately?

hardy har har

[ronnykmarshall]

6. She don't look so good.

Frown, frown, frown!

[DrWeird]

4. A personal request...

Could the person who starts the new thread list a couple of big highlights?

[0007]

Kind of wish they'd let the thread get to a 100 before transferring

or give a warning of the number when it is to be moved.

[0007]

5. Armitage reminds me of Curly of the three stooges

[RoundRockD]

18. I think the Bushies are going to be sorry they sent this guy in place of

Condi. He obviously doesn't know anything and he's wasting everybody's time.

[maveric]

44. Hey! Thats an insult to Curly!! I resent that!

n/t

[Mattforclark]

7. Armitage is not aware of anything.

It is good to have public officials who are not aware of things.

[Cush]

8. "as Dr Rice's Doppleganger......"

[robsul82]

10. "Being as...

...Dr. Rice's doppelganger, sir..."

Ben-Veniste shoots...SCORE!

Later.

RJS

[displacedtexan]

16. another slam dunk!

Slap my palm like a sports ball player!

[BootinUp]

11. He just said he is not there as Rice's replacement

[ellie]

19. Yes, he said he was

a terrorism expert or something like that.

[readmylips]

26. Asshole Thompson again....

illuminating on Armitage's resume. BenVaniste bloodied curly.

Here we go again...Thompson attacking Clarke.

[Spazito]

13. ROFLMAO! Does Armitage look like a fool or what!

Unbelievable that the WH sent this fool.

[PaDUer]

32. That's WHY they sent him..

as the saying goes--"send in the clowns"...which they've done to run the clock and get nowhere.

[Cush]

14. The White House is looking pretty bad right now

[robsul82]

15. LOL...

"I have more questions for the Dr. Rice/Armitage team..."

Later.

RJS

[BootinUp]

17. Veniste bares his teeth!

called him Dr. Rice Armitage! LOL

[nickinSTL]

20. CNN Headline on Clarke testimony

'Panel member challenges Clarke's credibility'

[BootinUp]

22. Of course that would be the headline

Instead of "Clarke rebuts charges of lack of Credibility"

[RoundRockD]

24. That darn liberal media! n/t

[displacedtexan]

27. Typical.

Big Jim Thompson is reading from his talking points now: new administration was busy with ambassadors, etc.

Unbelievable!

[PaDUer]

34. The new administration was busy...

committing grand theft and mass murder.

[Cush]

30. that was the misson

Have the networks focus on that, and only that. No coverage of anyting else

[bobbyboucher]

21. Compared to Clarke, this guy looks like an idiot.

Making bullshit excuses.

[Bonhomme Richard]

23. What a day! I am getting absolutly no work...............

done this afternoon.
I'll be shrubs drinking now.

[ellie]

25. The only thing

this appearance is doing is to deceive and misdirect the American public. He has nothing of substance to say about what exactly happened during the time in question. Let's hope this doesn't last too long.

[robsul82]

28. This reminds me...

...of me doing presentations back in HS I didn't know was due that day, lol.

Later.

RJS

[Chovexani]

29. How did this dumb bastard get a job?

Oh wait, this is the Dumb Bastard administration...

[displacedtexan]

33. Uncle Fester teaches us how long it took to prepare Pakistan...

for possible military action.

A. Does this mean that Bush* needed lots of time to get ready to attack Iraq? If so, Armitage just screwed the pooch.

B. Is this the excuse for ignoring terrorism? If so, it's a piss poor excuse.

[proud patriot]

31. Link to Watch Hearing Here

http://www.c-span.org/watch/cspan3_rm.asp?Cat=TV&Code=CS3

[ellie]

35. It's almost as if

the Bush administration has surrounded themselves with people who don't really know what is going on, like career people like Armitage. Of course he is going to be able to talk about terrorism and his job, he is probably good at it. The pundits will say that the Bush adminstration really tried to combat terrorism, look at what Armitage had to say! Everyone over there wins. Rice wins because she didn't have to spill her secrets. It's really terrible.

[sadiesworld]

36. I keep getting lost, can't find current threads. (whining sounds)

[displacedtexan]

38. These threads are moving very fast today.

Gorelick is up now:

troubled by hyperbolic statements made by Dr. Rice. Would like to ask her about these statements in hearings.

Whoa!

[revcarol]

43. PULEEZ report what is actually going on!!

c-Span has been cutting out all day after one sentence!!

[Spazito]

37. Am I wrong or are they just kissing their own asses...

saying how good, honest, god-fearing they are???? Where are the questions?

[seafan]

39. Did Armitage just say they "would be doing the Lord's work"????

Someone please tell me I'm not hallucinating!

[Birthmark]

41. That's what the blob said.

[htuttle]

42. I heard him say that

It was in reference to covert action, ie., slitting throats, blowing stuff up, overthrowing governments -- you know, the Lord's Work.

I believe he was serious, yes.

[seafan]

53. Thanks... I think. I'm such a hypochondriac.

Sheesh.

[0007]

40. Thomas Kean shilling for Armitage

asking real soft questions that junior and Rove would love.

[sadiesworld]

45. Man, he's a disaster.

[dpibel]

46. Airplanes as missiles?

Never heard of such a thing!

We thought, y'know, bombs and stuff.

Ya gotta give 'em this: they stick to their transparent lies.

[kaitykaity]

47. Excuses for soft-shoeing the Taliban.

You bastards gave them $43 million because of the motherfucking Afghan Unocal pipeline.

[maddezmom]

48. Condi's a liar and "they" had no "plan" before 9/11

[maddezmom]

50. did Armitage admit the plan Condi is touting was after 9/11?

[robsul82]

49. I sure hope Ben-Veniste has seen Office Space.

I'm ACHING for him to plainly say to Armitage, "You 'don't know' so many things, dude...in the words of a 1999 film Office Space when a man was being interviewed about what he did at work and was giving mealymouthed, ridiculous answers...what is it, you say, you DO here?"

Later.

RJS

[berner59]

52. Who's the triangle head???

Lehman?? He just rambles...where's a question??? Is he the one who dissed Clarke on the credibility issue??

[0007]

55. Lehman is now shilling for Armitage

Asking prepped questions and getting the turkey to talk about the Marine barrack bombing under Reagan which has no bearing on this hearing. And Kean lets go.

[readmylips]

51. bushies wanted Almetage to be last ...

I guess Almetage was the big gun, after Clarke. He's a big boob, nothing else. It backfired on the bushies.

[displacedtexan]

56. Fester just said that the State Dept. had been neglected ...

for 12 years before Colin Powell took over.

Is he learning impaired? That dates the damage to Poppy Bush.

Is this the reason Powell had to lie to the UN? Because he inherited a neglected State Dept.?

[maddezmom]

57. what a bunch of bull, can't wait to hear Sec. Albright's response

the blame Clinton campaign continues.

[maddezmom]

54. Again, Roemer calling for Rice to testify

again calling for the misadministration to reconsider allowing condi to testify.

[bluedog]

60. go to fox news

she'll be there tonight

[maddezmom]

61. just saw that on another thread

unfuckingbelievable :puke:

[robsul82]

58. Ben-Veniste going after Armitage for...

Camp David meeting, Armitage calling Clarke a liar.

Later.

RJS

[Spazito]

59. Notice Armigage responded on the Iraq question...

"We discussed WHEN and HOW to attack Iraq" not IF!
