Feinstein on Hardball reciting the "How To End Terror" talking points

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

"It's got to come from within the Muslim community, the Imams must issue fatwas against jihad"...

I didn't stick around to hear if she suggested "replacing their ideology of hatred and fear with one of hope and freedom."

1. You can't "end" terrorism any more than you can "end", say, stabbing

Terrorism is a TACTIC not a "thing" or an "entity" that we can get to surrender or give up.

2. Now asking her about Traitorgate. nt

5. She ducked a couple of very direct questions

Tweety asked her if she still wants Rove's security clearance revoked. She said yes. Then Tweety said "Should someone who can't be trusted to have a security clearance retain an office next to the president? When you look at the floor plan, Rove's office is RIGHT NEXT TO THE PRESIDENT'S IN THE OVAL OFFICE."

She said "Yes. That's for the president to decide."

She DID NOT have the cojones to say that Rove should be fired.

3. Don't forget about fighting them there so we don't have to fight them here

You know, because Al Qaeda is pinned down in Iraq.

4. It's the GLOBAL TERRA CENTER! Totally! Fer sher. Bitchin.'

That's my fantasy. George does one line of coke too many before a press conference, forgets how to do his fake Texas accent, and starts speakin' like a valley girl.

:sarcasm:

:evilgrin:

6. easy: remove corrupt US politicians (e.g. Bush) from office

[AntiCoup2K4]

7. Feinstein would never say that

She's corrupt herself. As is every member of the DLC/PNAC cabal.

8. She said "imams", "fatwah", and "Jihad" all in the same sentence

She must be very familiar with Islamic culture
