It was. I rarely watch, but was glad to have seen the whole show last night.

I hope you were paying attention during the Glen Beck segment @mountaineer
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

@Bigun
I don't have cable TV - can you summarize what the Beck segment was about?

Was on in the background...

Something about his strategic efforts to rescue Afghani-Christians...his own planes are involved (his sub-contractors) and our State Department has demanded he cease and desist.

Some of us held the POV that Obama's desertion of the Yazidi-Christians in Iraq was deliberate genocide and well...here we go again.

The LEFT shouldn't be in control of our agencies.  Where the hell are all the people that just want to follow the GD Constitution?

Be happy to. @BassWrangler Beck said "The United States Department of State is doing its best to torpedo our efforts at every turn."  Beck and his group are IN Afghanistan doing their best to get Christians out to safety.

Thanks. This is just unbelievable. I can't figure out if the Admin is just incompetent or actually malicious.

Biden on TV now, further eroding the US stature on the world stage.  AMTRAK mentioned.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

They're leftists. Hatred for who they see as their political opposition is the only thing driving them.

We should be looking at what personal the two administrations have in common. Susan Rice is one.

Got some catching up to do.  Yesterday was work and travel for me.  I'm only up to page 29 of Thread 4.  Thanks to everyone for comments.

Thank G-d.  Prime Minister Bennett takes off his stupid mask.
