1. Tweety's in senseless babbling mode

"This isn't war. It's not terrorism. what do we call it?"

Uh, how about some random nut going crazy and shooting a bunch of people?

4. It's most likely insurrection.

9. He-e-ey-----wait a minute! You thinkin' for yourself again? nt

[Ruby the Liberal]

2. Chris is anchoring THE story that defines the logic for ending the wars.

I would be about to come apart as well.

[dschis]

3. He's thinking of the implications

I'll bet he's thinking what I am, sleeper. Not many people know about this...a few years back there was a drive by shooting (gang related) on one of the housing areas there. They determined that gang members had unfiltered the Army and smuggling weapons off base. There were similar actions taken, believe me, Ft Hood has all of the roads closed, you can't call off post, no internet access. etc. They are going room to room, car to car, individual to individual.

6. I've been thinking that all day

and not necessarily foreign either... but that is just me.

13. Do you mean "Infiltrated the Army ..."?

[dschis]

I got excited and fat-fingered the keys

[Mosby]

5. He sounds more tense than normal. nt

7. Who is "counseling the counselors"?

That's my thought?

Chris does seem shaken up. Meanwhile Republican Coburn is holding up a bill for military benefits.

[951-Riverside]

8. but who will counsel the counselors who are counseling the counselors? n/t

[MadMaddie]

12. touche`

10. It's very evident that Chris knows next to nothing about the military.

His questions are indicative of his lack of knowledge, particularly as it relates to military medicine and the rank structure. I e-mailed him info during the program because his discomfort was so obivious.

[LostInAnomie]

11. I don't think Chris likes covering breaking news...

... unless it's in his comfort zone. He's a pundit, not a reporter.
