Anything I should know about?

There must be at least one or two.!

It’s big government. Big government is liberals. They run the state department, no matter who’s president. “Career bureaucratic liberals.”

anon 4:58 – I don’t suppose you would be willing to name the liberals who are responsible for the fraud?

Actually, you can’t spell rhetoric properly in english without beginning with rh and then the letter sequence e-t-o-r-i-c.

So does that help qualify your statement as rhetoric?

Just wondering. I heard what you were saying tho in the first part of your comment though. Who was running that place (state dept.) back in the early seventies? Anyway, I’m not old enough to remember. I do think Rummy had something to do with the DOD back then, which is good, because good americans know everything is on the up and up with that strong, noble man in charge. I sure wish Mr. Cheney had something with the military back then, he is a real straight shooter, we simply would not be in the mess we are in now.

Problem is, liberals haven’t been in power. And I don’t remember audits of the State Department revealing deliberate fraud under Clinton nor Carter. Maybe you can link me to some sources?

Cheap shot coming from someone who knows better and is flailing for bombs to lob at the politicalopposition. You can’t spell rhetoric without e-r-i-c.
