2. You're joking, right?

(Maybe she won't be too bad)

I saw her for about thirty seconds on MTP last weekend and I lost count of the number of lies she spewed.

I loathe her. I really do. She gets that quavery tone in her voice when someone asks her a tough question, like they're beating her or something. If you can't stand the heat...whine, and maybe they'll let you off the hook.

3. I was gonna say the same thing!

If she talks, she lies. Her credibility is in the negative numbers.

Quavery! :rofl: So true. But I'll throw her this bone: she has improved her hairdo!

[TayTay]

4. Yes, I am joking.

It's just that now, she gets to lie about India and nukes! Wow! It's a whole new category of lying.

I wonder if the taller Sen from Mass will have something to say to her about, oh, I don't know, Iraq. Especially after talking to the US Amb. the day before. (It might come up.)

[whometense]

5. That's a relief!

For a second there I was afraid you were going soft. :D

Yeah, I imagine JK may have a question or two for her to duck.

[TayTay]

6. In all seriousness, the Iraq hearing is more important

The Sens should all grill Khalilzad about the situation over there. Sen. Kerry has publicly called the situation a 'civil war.' I want to hear his thoughts now on what is going on over there and what has changed and what the Amb. thinks we can do about it. (If anything.)
