Comments on: Bartlett rips McClellan, calls allegation 'total crap' http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/05/28/bartlett-rips-mcclellan-calls-allegation-total-crap/ All politics, all the time Mon, 21 Dec 2009 22:07:36 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Jason http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/05/28/bartlett-rips-mcclellan-calls-allegation-total-crap/#comment-1155456 Jason Wed, 28 May 2008 18:47:38 +0000 http://cnnpoliticalticker.wordpress.com/?p=7384#comment-1155456 I find it utterly hilarious that some people claim that the Republicans hold the high ground with national security. After 9/11, the American people willingly held their tongues about partisan issues and gave Bush's administration our permission---he is our employee, not the other way around---and the funds to hunt down Osama bin Laden. That was what we wanted. Six years later, bin Laden is still running around, still organizing attacks against people worldwide, while we're stuck thousands of miles away in a country that had absolutely nothing to do with 9/11. National security is the Republican party's weakest point. This book only confirms what we already knew. Democrats in '08.

This is 'our' country its time we wake up and let this type of scum know that we do not want nor need them representing us.
And any imbecile that voted to re elect Bush should be banned from voting ever again, you are as much to blame as this adminstration.

Gosh- we have no idea what he's talking about. This isn't just the first in what will be a long series of tell-all and hopefully indicting exposures of what has really gone on inside the Reichstag.

He had enough loyalty to Bush to do this, but has enough of a conscience to now speak out and tell the truth. I hated this man as press secretary because I knew he was lying, but I respect him for at least now coming forward to tell the truth.

I have never seen a president so disrespected in my life. Yes, he has made a lot of mistakes but he is still the president and we should have some respect for the position and person. Do you think Obama, Hillary, Gore, or even Kerry could have done better. I just don't believe that. It is such a shame that our country is this divided over this. I just hope the next president can please most of the folks out there that are so bitter right now. It doesn't help this country at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
