Tell me this isn’t true. Senator Frist wants to negotiate WITH THE TALIBAN! Hell, why don’t we just invite al Qaeda while were at it and make all nicey-nice with them too. You can bring chips and they’ll bring the potato salad.
RARR!
Usually most of politics doesn’t make me too angry because it’s all the idiocy is just expected, but right now I need some duct tape to keep my head from exploding. If we can’t even expect the Republican Majority Leader to focus on killing all the terrorists, what hope do we have? We know the eunuchs in the Democratic Party are just going to do everything they can to ignore the issue (national security doesn’t play to their “strengths”), so who does that leave to vote for? Are there any men left in Washington?
If terrorists scare you, please resign from national office. Now.
UPDATE: Mary Katherine Ham reminds us exactly who the Taliban are. There is no negotiating with that.
UPDATE 2: Is Frist retiring? I see that in the comments at Hot Air. Gee, I hope that’s true…
UPDATE 3: MKH says that Frist is claiming he was misquoted and there will be a blog post addressing the topic soon.
He better claim to be misquoted…
UPDATE 4: He’s backed off the statement somewhat now. Check out any of the links on this post to see his statement.
The Lefties are riding high. Ted Turner (AKA Mr. Hanoi Jane) has said that we should give the terrorists whatever they wanted.
I think we should offer to cut our own heads off to spite them.
spacemonkey,
I always considered pre-ripping my movie ticket to spite the movie ticket ripper, but I’ve never had the courage.
I guess that’s similar.
The only negotiation we should be offering to the Taliban and AQ is “Into which ear would you like the bullet?”
Either he was terribly, terribly mis-quoted or he needs to go to his doctor for a testicle transplant. Un-frickin-believable.
Frist will probably be retiring as soon as he gets the check from the HCA LBO.
The Republican meltdown of 2006 couldn’t be more complete. What a bunch of absolute losers.
Here’s an idea. Why don’t we tell the countries in the Middle East that hide and support terrorism that they have one month to find and dispose of the Taliban and Al Qaeda or we make them a glass parking lot. This would go quite a ways in impressing the rest of the world that we mean what we say, pay attention North Korea and Pakistan.
How about we start acting like the lone superpower instead of the lone superwuss. We however, have no one to blame for the dismal state of our representatives, we elected them!
Sean – much as I hate to disagree with you, who the @#$%! is this “we” that elected these mopes? “We” may pull the levers, but “we” don’t decide who the @#$% gets on the ballot. The powers that be put pedos and walking vaginas on the ballot and call them Republicrats and we hope “they” weren’t smoking crack when “they” did it. Guess what? They were! White-Flag-Frist and “What are you wearing” Foley weren’t on my ballot.
If they all resigned, we would get rid of that stupid Seniority System they use. It is the only system that rewards you for not being able to remember your name.
Uhh… Don’t look now, but they have us fighting each other over issues they, mainly, create via the media while they rob us blind in order to support the ones they are importing to replace us.
