Wow - that is amazing.

2. yeah, I thought that was pretty nice too - a nice cordial moment! :)
We HAVE to have him as Vice President in Charge of Foreign Policy or as Secretary of State - and with a person of his choosing as Sec. of Defense!

12. I just told him that they things I dislike about Biden are nothing in comparison
to the things I dislike about Hillary and Obama.

Biden had his issues, I admit.... but they are small in comparison to some of the crap that we are being exposed to now from those two.

I know you guys see me out there fighting for Hillary but it is only because I like her a little bit more than Obama. I can't even quote her positions on issues or where she is even campaigning today -lol, complete opposite from the way I was with Biden. I was a Biden-addict.

11. I hope they will show the replay on C Span later.
I don't have the time or the patience to sit at my computer and watch a hearing.

10. Just tuned in --
and agree, natch, with all the comments thus far in the threads here.

It makes me so ANGRY that people (and I'm raising my hand here, too) allow themselves to be sidetracked by the GARBAGE that's going on in the campaign. If they all were going toe to to regarding Iraq, economy, whatever, but they're not.

Lahey just finished -- Kerry's up.

I'm going to check out your link now, Pirhana -- thanks!

And thanks to JIOOU for the initial heads up!
