I almost brought up the Truman-McDouglas issue

But does it really apply in this case.

McDouglas was fired - not a personal attack. Everyone would agree that the President is the CIC and has the right to fire Generals. So, <shrug>, it doesn't apply.

Just for Beep: Achenblog on the attacks on Hillary. - (Another Scott) - (83) - Sept. 20, 2007, 05:37:18 PM EDT

She can't distance herself from her money - (bepatient) - (82) - Sept. 20, 2007, 07:25:07 PM EDT

I don't think she should - (jake123) - (23) - Sept. 20, 2007, 07:29:52 PM EDT

I don't really care if they were right or not - (bepatient) - (22) - Sept. 20, 2007, 08:31:22 PM EDT

*COUGH* -NT - (Simon_Jester) - (7) - Sept. 20, 2007, 08:53:53 PM EDT

Maybe I should be more clear - (bepatient) - (6) - Sept. 20, 2007, 10:00:11 PM EDT

But its quite OK to endorse a personal insult - (jb4) - (1) - Sept. 22, 2007, 10:44:45 PM EDT

I don't believe I've ever said that. - (bepatient) - Sept. 23, 2007, 12:40:06 AM EDT

Many good points. Thanks. - (Another Scott) - Sept. 23, 2007, 08:53:00 AM EDT

I don't understand you. - (bepatient) - Sept. 23, 2007, 10:42:55 AM EDT

I almost brought up the Truman-McDouglas issue - (Simon_Jester) - Sept. 23, 2007, 12:48:32 PM EDT

So the dems should bend over and take it - (crazy) - (10) - Sept. 20, 2007, 09:59:38 PM EDT

What? - (bepatient) - (9) - Sept. 20, 2007, 10:02:16 PM EDT

Damn close - (crazy) - (8) - Sept. 20, 2007, 10:15:38 PM EDT

Indeed. - (Another Scott) - (2) - Sept. 20, 2007, 10:35:11 PM EDT

"Betray us", just quoting the troops. -NT - (Silverlock) - Sept. 21, 2007, 07:48:09 AM EDT

2 completely different things. -NT - (bepatient) - Sept. 21, 2007, 08:56:57 AM EDT

FWIW - Cindy Sheehan's response re MoveOn ad - (Ashton) - (4) - Sept. 21, 2007, 05:23:50 PM EDT

This reminds me of what Keith Olbermann had to say - (Seamus) - (3) - Sept. 21, 2007, 05:33:40 PM EDT

I find it surprising that Olbermann is still on.. - (Ashton) - (2) - Sept. 21, 2007, 06:58:52 PM EDT

He is signed until 2011 according to Wikipedia - (Seamus) - (1) - Sept. 21, 2007, 07:27:05 PM EDT

Hmm, there's a thought - - (Ashton) - Sept. 21, 2007, 08:28:40 PM EDT

Petraeus is a big boy - I'm sure he's been called worse. - (Another Scott) - (1) - Sept. 20, 2007, 10:00:45 PM EDT

I'm sure he is and I'm sure he doesn't care. - (bepatient) - Sept. 20, 2007, 10:07:06 PM EDT

1.5 minutes of Hannity, Rush et al == 50 of this - (Ashton) - Sept. 21, 2007, 06:24:40 AM EDT

Why should she say anything? - (hnick) - (57) - Sept. 21, 2007, 08:33:41 AM EDT

Someone here put forth - (bepatient) - (56) - Sept. 21, 2007, 09:02:05 AM EDT

She voted no to this strawman. -NT - (Silverlock) - Sept. 21, 2007, 09:15:44 AM EDT

Re: Someone here put forth - (Seamus) - Sept. 21, 2007, 09:27:02 AM EDT

I was thinking more in terms olf Another Scott's post - (hnick) - Sept. 21, 2007, 09:46:09 AM EDT

Let's hear from the professionals, beep, shall we? - (rcareaga) - (52) - Sept. 21, 2007, 09:55:53 AM EDT

No problem with that at all - (bepatient) - (51) - Sept. 21, 2007, 10:20:16 AM EDT

I'm beginning to think you read a different ad. - (Another Scott) - (32) - Sept. 21, 2007, 10:02:32 PM EDT

Huh? - (bepatient) - (31) - Sept. 21, 2007, 10:15:36 PM EDT

Read the links... -NT - (Another Scott) - (30) - Sept. 21, 2007, 10:19:00 PM EDT

Re: Read the links... - (bepatient) - (29) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:33:51 AM EDT

We'll have to agree to disagree. - (Another Scott) - (25) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:46:00 AM EDT

You linked to the definition - (bepatient) - (24) - Sept. 22, 2007, 01:00:47 AM EDT

Please read me in my posts. - (Another Scott) - (14) - Sept. 22, 2007, 01:28:31 AM EDT

What has he NOT "fallen for the Republican spin machine" on? -NT - (CRConrad) - (3) - Sept. 22, 2007, 02:01:18 AM EDT

Quite a bit. But what do you know. -NT - (bepatient) - (2) - Sept. 22, 2007, 02:03:40 AM EDT

Quite a bit - I've known you for over ten years now. - (CRConrad) - (1) - Sept. 22, 2007, 02:23:49 AM EDT

Thats funny - (bepatient) - Sept. 22, 2007, 02:43:01 AM EDT

You told me to read the link. - (bepatient) - (9) - Sept. 22, 2007, 02:02:59 AM EDT

Oh, bullpucky! - (CRConrad) - (1) - Sept. 22, 2007, 02:34:45 AM EDT

BS - straight up. (new thread) - (bepatient) - Sept. 22, 2007, 02:47:50 AM EDT

The definition you quoted from was used to explain - (Seamus) - (6) - Sept. 22, 2007, 11:01:41 AM EDT

Go to the dictionary. -NT - (bepatient) - (5) - Sept. 22, 2007, 11:41:54 AM EDT

You are just playing with the context - (Seamus) - (4) - Sept. 22, 2007, 11:49:20 AM EDT

Give me a break - (bepatient) - (3) - Sept. 22, 2007, 11:55:47 AM EDT

It is absurd for you not to admit that there are different - (Seamus) - (2) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:24:59 PM EDT

Not worth it - (bepatient) - (1) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:41:55 PM EDT

It just may do that - (Seamus) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:52:01 PM EDT

"Betray" was necessary to make it rhyme. - (a6l6e6x) - (8) - Sept. 22, 2007, 09:44:32 AM EDT

schoolyard name-calling - (rcareaga) - (6) - Sept. 22, 2007, 02:11:10 PM EDT

There you go again - (bepatient) - (5) - Sept. 22, 2007, 03:56:40 PM EDT

Ok, so I lied. - (Another Scott) - (4) - Sept. 22, 2007, 04:45:24 PM EDT

Short answer (and no biggie, welcome back) - (bepatient) - (3) - Sept. 22, 2007, 08:00:41 PM EDT

To me it is just as important a candidate support - (Seamus) - (1) - Sept. 22, 2007, 08:08:06 PM EDT

That hasn't panned out historically - (bepatient) - Sept. 22, 2007, 08:50:41 PM EDT

2008 is not 1988. - (Another Scott) - Sept. 22, 2007, 08:51:00 PM EDT

Well, by that definition, MoveOn.org is right - (jb4) - (2) - Sept. 22, 2007, 11:08:52 PM EDT

Thanks for the affirmation - (bepatient) - (1) - Sept. 23, 2007, 12:38:13 AM EDT

NO...but it does happen - (jb4) - Sept. 30, 2007, 10:35:09 PM EDT

Re: No problem with that at all - (bepatient) - (3) - Sept. 22, 2007, 11:53:32 AM EDT

Stupid, but they still, IMO, were not calling Gen. Peatrus - (Seamus) - (2) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:25:34 PM EDT

Well then petition Webster to change the definition - (bepatient) - (1) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:13:13 PM EDT

I don't have to petition Websters - (Seamus) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:30:36 PM EDT

You seem to be ignoring a major point. - (hnick) - (10) - Sept. 22, 2007, 09:17:42 AM EDT

No I'm not - (bepatient) - (6) - Sept. 22, 2007, 11:54:44 AM EDT

But you also said that - (Seamus) - (5) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:48:49 PM EDT

What I'd seen - (bepatient) - (4) - Sept. 22, 2007, 01:03:40 PM EDT

Just curious, where did you see that? -NT - (Seamus) - (1) - Sept. 22, 2007, 01:31:20 PM EDT

Gonna have to get my laptop back - (bepatient) - Sept. 22, 2007, 01:47:10 PM EDT

Actually he's not - (Simon_Jester) - (2) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:01:35 PM EDT

All right. Difference of opinion is all. - (hnick) - (1) - Sept. 22, 2007, 12:21:00 PM EDT
