Dole Remarks
Senator Dole, who has been nearly silent during her career as Senator for North Carolina has recently been quoted as saying, "It's like they're content with losing. To pull out and withdraw is losing. The Democrats appear to be content with losing.”
She was talking about the United States in Iraq.
The Circus of Sadaam Hussein finished its first act by condemning Sadaam to death just in time for American mid-term elections. Senator Dole, who got her seat apparently due to backroom machinations by her aging husband, an ex-Senator from Kansas, now seems intent on stirring up domestic trouble in the United States.
She is showing a weakness in the Republican party that I don’t care for. As an American who happens to be a Republican her personal attacks against my fellow Americans leave me with a sick feeling in my stomach. I believe I am seeing Senator Dole relying on the same, sorry political tricks her husband used to play in Kansas.
Anyone that thinks so little of the Great State of North Carolina that they can snap their fingers to get their way must be in denial about many other things as well.
Senator Dole’s behavior, coming as it does from a woman who has enjoyed a life of ease and whose brushes with adversity seem to be limited to not finding the right color for her limousine or having her veal overcooked should have her attention drawn to one very pertinent fact.
You’re not in Kansas anymore.

4. She sounded like a true shrew who would not shut up
She has a pasty frozen smile and spews only the GOP talking points. She was at one time a lady, no more.

5. yes, I agree...
and she's my Senator, unfortunately. We've not seen her here in I don't know how long.

She completely showed her ass this morning on Press the Meet. I was embarrassed, even though it was hilarious. She would not shut up at all, talked over Tim and Sen. Shumer, and Rep. Emmanuel. Timmy tried to get her to stop talking so he could ask her or one of the other guests a question, and she just kept talking. It was so rude - she did NOT do herself any favors today with her behavior.

When she said it the whole table erupted, Emmanuel was livid and demanded to respond (never did get to), and ol' Liddy would not shut up for anyone or anything.

11. I wonder how many more of the GOPerverts
are losing it? It was plain to see she was going over the deep end...I've never seen her act so rude and obnoxious before. She even looked different....like she has shriveled up,all scrunched up in her seat.She is one pissed off old lady who can't stand the thought of losing. Well,she better get used to it because they are TOAST and if she can't accept it then she needs to resign and admit herself into a nursing home....looks like she needs to be there anyway.Where is Mr. Viagra,anyway? Haven't seen him and his pen for a long time.

14. I yelled at the TV..."Shut up!
First time I ever yelled at the TV. Libby was making mr so mad and sick to my stomach. That plumped up, pulled up face that wouldn't stop talking was sickening! She was a disgrace to womanhood. I actually felt a little pity for Bob...having to put up with a shrew like Libby!
How the hell does he get a word in edgewise during an argument?

12. Sugar Lips was rude, buffoonish and a nattering old chicken
She reminds me of some nasty chicken cartoon. In her performance on Meet The Russert today, she was just downright embarrassing.

13. She was patently fake and very rude. Her phony, plastic smile became nauseating.
It's still so hard to believe that our country has gotten to the point when it's okay for members of one political party to say of the other that they support terrorist and want to see America lose. And this is accepted by the corporate media. Even the president and vice president say it with no regard for the dissension that it creates within the country. What a shame. They should be ashamed and embarrassed.

We most certainly need a change of course.

15. The first true rudeness in the electoral process was when
Babs Bush called Clinton and Gore a couple of bozos. I truly was shocked that so little respect was paid to opponents. We don't even sink that low in college football.

It's only gotten worse since.
