1. It's a repeat from the Republican convention.

But in the segment Pat shows that he has a better sense of humor than all the Bushies combined.

4. Sorry midwayer it's over now but

here's a sentence or two from the book

“ civil war is going to break out inside the Republican Party along the old trench lines of the Goldwater-Rockefeller wars of the 1960s, a war for the heart and soul and future of the party for the new century.” (234)

On the Neoconservatives:


“Kristol’s warning that neoconservatives could go to Kerry was an admission of what many have long recognized. The neoconservatives are not really conservatives at all. They are impostors and opportunists.” (250)

“Nine days after an attack on the United States, this tiny clique of intellectuals was telling the President of the United States...that if he did not follow their war plans, he would be charged publicly with a ‘decisive surrender’ to terrorism.” (48)


“This is democratic imperialism. This will bleed, bankrupt and isolate this republic. This overthrows the wisdom of the Founding Fathers about what America should be all about.” (35)

On the War in Iraq:

“istening to the neoconservatives, Bush invaded Iraq, united the Arab world against us, isolated us from Europe, and fulfilled to the letter bin Laden’s prophecy as to what we were about. We won the war in three weeks -- and we may have lost the Islamic world for a generation. (84)

7. I know he's disliked here since he is a conservative, but I do feel

respect for him, specially after some interviews I saw last weekend where he stated very clearly how terrorism is the direct result of the U.S. imperial policies.

I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would hear an American Conservative say this. If half of the freepers were aware of this (terrorism/imperialism), Kerry would win by a landslide.
