| #2 Bill, the man who treated the ugly mole of Al Qaeda was a mere cosmetic dermatology issue instead of the killing cancer that it was, allowing it to fester and grow for eight years. Oh, for the good old days. Cheer delegates, cheer. /sarcasm off. Remember if you're a Trunk White House aide you go to jail [with throngs of cheering Donks] for perjury before a federal grand jury. If you are a Donk, you get no such penalty but with even more cheering party masses. One set of rules for me, another set of rules for thee. |

| #1 I thought his comments regarding "setting the example" were particularly rich. Most disappointed however by the appearances and comments of LTG(Ret) Claudia Kennedy and Gulf War Veteran Tammy Duckworth. I recall attending a annual commander's conference many years ago where LTG Kennedy spoke. She was at that time the Army's Deputy Cheif of Staff for Intelligence. In attendance were commanders and senior enlisted leaders from each of the command's brigades as well as other key members of Army the intelligence community. As I recall, she spoke for about 45 minutes on the topic of future space strategic collection platforms and the necessary interelations necessary for joint planners. It wasn't a topic not particularly well suited to the audience. She took one or two quick questions, then rushed off the stage. We were to learn later that she had to get over to the gymnasium to link-up with her personal trainer. While assigned to the NCR, LTG Kennedy regularly held coaching and mentoring "teas" (2 hour lunches) for female members of her staff and by invitation only, selected others. In her pentagon office LTG Kennedy proudly displayed a photo of herself posing with President Clinton. Kennedy's three year, after-the-fact allegation and subsequent charges of sexual misconduct (attempted kissing and groping) against MG Larry Smith are legendary. General Smith received an administrative repremand which immediately ended his career. There was however, no finding of insanity with respect to General Smith, a condition he would certainly have had to have been suffering to consider "forcably kissing or groping" Claudia Kennedy. I will not even address the comments made by Ms. Tammy Duckworth, Director of Illinois Department of Veteran's Affairs, who as an amputee declined medical retirement to serve in the National Guard. Suffice to say her very public and slanderous statements regarding our Commander in Chief were both shameless and dispicable and represent a clear violation of her oaths of enlistment and commissioning. In 2006, Duckworth ran for U.S. Congress in the 6th District of Illinois but lost to her Republican opponnent. Obviously she still longs for public office. |
