As the President is getting off the helicopter in front of the
White House, he has a baby pig under each arm.
The Marine guard snaps to attention, salutes, and says: "Nice pigs, sir."
The President replies:
"These are not pigs, these are authentic Texan Razorback Hogs.
I got one for VP Cheney, and I got one for Defense Secretary Rumsfeld"
The Marine again snaps to attention, salutes, and replies,
"Nice trade, sir."

I am OUTRAGED that a P.O.S. like Dennis Hastert has the nerve to criticize John McCain about sacrifice. McCain is a true Patriot, even if he his a Republican.

Keep up the good work, I'm a big AHNC fan.

-Craig

I agree. The GOP mantra should be When in doubt, denigrate their patriotism


Hi Lisa!
Imagine my chagrin when I read about Dennis Hastert
lecturing John McCain about sacrifice. I have repeatedly said
the Republican right trashes even their own if they go against the
party, and today we have ugly proof of that. I wrote Mr. Hastert and
told him he owed Mr. McCain an apology. Do you think he'll give one?

Alan

Commandment XII: Republicans never have to say they're sorry.

Listening to Chickenhawk Hastert (fyi: he got a deferment for bad knees during Vietnam and went on to coach high school wrestling) dress down McCain is akin to Bush & Co. bashing McCain's POW years during the 2000 South Carolina primary or Saxby Chambliss denigrating the patriotism of Max Cleland, Vietnam triple amputee or Bush & Co denigrating John Kerry’s medals.

Methinks the rightwingers are afraid of McCain.

And they should be because he tells the truth.

Talk, talk, Chickenhawks squawk!
Bush's bus is coming to town;
words of fear, a simpering leer,
and lies spread all around.
