Hey RIP

You guys in Washington State need to elect someone who isnt hearing voices and seeing black helicopters !


----------------------------------
WASHINGTON -- Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Wash., who earned headlines across the globe last year for criticizing President Bush while in Baghdad, is enmeshed in a new controversy over remarks he made about the capture of Saddam Hussein.

In an interview Monday with a Seattle radio station, McDermott said the U.S. military could have found the former Iraqi dictator "a long time ago if they wanted."

Asked if he thought the weekend capture was timed to help Bush, McDermott chuckled and said, "Yeah. Oh, yeah."

McDermott went on to say, "There's too much by happenstance for it to be just a coincidental thing."

Tell me about it! :mad:

Patty Murray?
McDermott?

This state is pathetic for politics...but you know what? They're kissing Boeings *** now because they finally got it through their thick heads that "Yes, Corporations ARE a good thing for the economy"...gee, what a concept! Anyone here ever get a paycheck from a poor man?!?

They're giving Boeing huge tax breaks to keep the 7E7 assembly in Everett, WA.  Personally, I kinda hope Boeing gives WA State the finger today, and takes the assembly elsewhere, this democratically-controlled state has screwed Boeing so badly over the last 50 years, they deserve it.

As you can see by McDermotts reply, and Murrays analysis of Osama bin Laden below, our State Democrats are not the sharpest tools in the drawer.

"Why are people so supportive of him in many countries . . . that are riddled with poverty? He's been out in these countries for decades, building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day care facilities, building health care facilities, and the people are extremely grateful. We haven't done that. ... How would they look at us today if we had been there helping them with some of that rather than just being the people who are going to bomb in Iraq and go to Afghanistan?...We've got to ask, why is this man [Osama bin Laden] so popular around the world?"
