10. I actually used to like Condi
I admired her for her intellect and I thought that since I heard her say her dream was to be the commisioner of the NFL, how bad could she be. I think Bush has totally changed this woman. She shoulda stayed at Stanford

2. Clarke looks like he actually cares,
Condi looks like she's about to kill someone. I hope she's pissed at Bush Inc. and will come clean.

4. Everytime I See That Picture I Want To Cry
I don't think anyone realizes what an emotional salve it is for the victims to finally hear an official take responsibility and honestly answer questions about 9/11. Clarke is a Patriot of unique standing.

8. And did it knowing the personal attack that would be launched against him
Makes the others who won't admit they did nothing wrong look like miserable failures and hypocrites.

5. That is a touching picture.
I also didn't see that Clarke received a standing ovation when he finished his testimony.

6. that makes me
cry. How sad for these families to have to go through such a horrific tragedy and then to have the partisan crap from Thompson yesterday is disgusting. My heart goes out to them.

7. Wait a minute.
I thought Bush said that hugging the widows and the bereaved was his job, that he's the one that "gets to" do this.

9. HAH! Remember when he went to Atlanta?
For ML King wreath laying? Corretta King stood about a mile from him and looked at him with such eyes to say "Don't even think about touching me!"

One more lie.

11. One of the most beautiful pics ever
AND one of the saddest. What a giant of a man he is. The usurper's not fit to carry his shoes.

13. If George Bush is EVER curious as to what a MAN looks like:
He needs to look at this photo.
