#1 I know Russert has no class but I thought Richardson had a modicum of class. I guess not. He was a Clintonista.

#2 I think the entire Democratic Presidential field would do well to steer clear of all things Military. Because every time they open their yap they reveal how little they know about the military. The "Death Benifit" is not $12k its $250k (and had been for about fifteen years) or was until it was raised to $400k. And the benifit is a FEDERAL not a STATE benifit, also it was raised by President Bush not Govenor Richardson. Finally he should crawl on his knees to that women and beg forgiveness for LYING about her son. Families are given $25 (I think it used to be $12k) for immediate needs of the family. Of course the MSM can't ask intelligent question because they don't know shit about the Military either or Russert would have called him on the benifits declaration.

#4 The Dhimocrats know nothing about the military and see it only through pre-WWII eyes. And they want to send it back to that level of effectiveness too.

Freakin' buffoons.

#5 The dickhead Richardson didn't even get his name right. Silver Star winner.

#6 And even just as sad is that Bill chose to take the negative approach to the issue instead of taking credit [as usual] for the bennies his state of New Mexico provides veterans.

#8 Don't forget, Richardson also wrote on his resume that he had been a professional baseball player. Only problem, he lied about that too.

#9 I saw this train wreck yesterday. The low point for me was the insistence that we must negotiate with Iran. How would that go?

Richardson: Give up your nukes.
Iran: Death to America!

Hard to find the middle ground.

#10 The middle ground is us killing them.
