Um, when did (R) Sen. Susan Collins become an expert on military planning & terrorism?

[bridgit]

Or did she receive *not* a global-memo full of talking points but instead one that flat-out told her to get her ass out on out there and put her skin & tongue on the TV for a game that's already losing and take one for the losing side?

1. She failed totally, and often. But do the talking heads call her out? Hell, no! nt

2. i think her tone & demeanor hurt the right more than helped...especially in light of the truth

that the underwear bomber is singing

3. Isn't she on the Homeland Security Committee

[bridgit]

4. UmHm, as are others, though that does not seem to preclude her from turning things inside-out

7. Didn't you know-- to be an expert on terrorism

all you have to be is a republican. Then you automatically know all there is to know about HOW terrorist operate WHY they do what they do WHAT they will do next WHERE they will strike AND WHEN they will strike.

And all this by golly just because YOU are a republican.

8. Am I the only one who hates how Susan Collins talks?

She speaks really slowly as if the voters are all six years old.

She's really condescending.
