Norah O'Donnell: Have Republicans 'Lost Their Cojones?'

Norah O'Donnell just mocked the manhood of the Senate Republicans. The MSNBC host was discussing with Tucker Carlson how—despite making noises about wanting more financial disclosure about donations to Bill Clinton's foundation—Republicans have announced their intention to vote for Hillary's confirmation as Secretary of State nonetheless.

O'Donnell wondered out loud whether the Republicans "have kind of lost their cojones."

NORAH O'DONNELL: I want to play what Senator Cornyn said today about these concerns about Hillary Clinton, and her husband still able to take money into his foundation.  Let's listen.

JOHN CORNYN: I was encouraged by my conversation with Senator Clinton yesterday in the Rotunda following the inaugural ceremonies.  She said that she would be open to a requirement that is an across-the-board disclosure requirement, that isn't just her and the Clinton Foundation.

O'DONNELL: So they want more information; they want instant disclosure, essentially, not the disclosure at the end of the year.  If this is a serious issue--which seems like a serious issue, why then two seconds later says "but I'm still going to vote for her.  I mean, have they kind of lost their cojones, the Republicans?

CARLSON:  Oh, kind of?  Of course!

Kind of?

KIND OF????!!!!

They are committing suicide and don't even realize it.

Well, that's a common

Well, that's a common notion.  I don't wonder...I just hope they get them back soon.  I'm pretty proud of Cornyn though.  At least he's kicked up some dust about Hillary...kinda funny, I think.

Lost nothing...

Keep it up, Norah.

Prepare for the counterstrike in 2010...

2010: A GOP Hill

Hmmm...

Since when did RINO's have cojones in the first place?

Ask a stupid question...

O'Donnell wondered out loud whether the Republicans "have kind of lost their cojones."

¡Si!

Welcome to the era of unity, you racist!

Norah O'Donnell

Norah lost her cojones when she started her jibberish on PMSNBC!

Most of them

have begged the Dems to allow them to borrow their dull, rusty knife from them and cut them off themselves, without any help.

...and they still can't feel it, because that part of their anatomy has atrophied years ago.

They are in "LOCKBOX"

It's scary when HILLARY has more testosterone then GOP Senators... Damn Scary

Kind of like walking up up Mike Tyson and telling him he's ugly.

The Republicans have essentially castrated themselves.

And the liberal John McCain has made sure that Broom Hilda's appointment to head up things over at Foggy Bottom will glide right through the senate like you-know-what through a goose.

Obama has also made the first move toward maneuvering us into ultimately surrendering to his Islamist friends by interfering in the trial of an enemy combatant who "allegedly" killed one of our soldiers, and the republicans are stone silent.

They had better find the keys to whatever lock box their nads are currently residing in, or Obama is going to run this country straight into the ground.

Norah's Cojones

Imagine. Norah asking that question to a hermaphrodite like tucker Carlson.

Why doesn't she pose that question to a John Cornyn or Jim Bunning and see what kind of answer she gets.

Tough to Procreate

It's tough to procreate without cojones.  To borrow a phrase that poor old Newt was tarred with, the G.O.P. stands a real chance of withering on the vine.  Perhaps a third party will materialize.  Sadly, a third party virtually guarantees the re-ordination of BHO.

You know they may be right...

It does seem like a lot of Republicans just came back from the vet with that "hmm...somethings different" look on their faces.

Here's what the GOP needs:

Fever or no fever.

94-2 ....I just got done watching

I just got done watching the vote before coming to NBs.

I was disgusted...totally...once again by the 'R' party.

At least DeMint and Vitter have a pair.

Cornyn really disappointed me today...Hill saying she is open to something isn't the same as this being in writing...I watched the hearing, this is all despicable, the Deadly Duo will not have to report anything about where, what, when, why Bill does his pay for play speaking tours in foreign countries but once a year, after the damage is well past done...and she is taking in this gravy all the while being Sec. of State.

God help us all...I am so angry with the spineless 'R's I can't see straight...I just shake my head...past pathetic.

Something Like This?

Just wait for the first Supreme Court vacancy.

Not the Weenie . . . .

One much smaller.

Not the Weenie . . . .are you sure?

Look at the picture, the car...

Yellow Band Weenies...

I'm feeling so Republican today I believe I'll acquiesce to your post.

Can we photo shop it? Replace the OM with the RNC? It would be fitting.

Norah,

I see you haven't lost yours!!!

Interesting....

Oh, the media has balls.  They're just someone else's and they're in the media's mouths.

She might be right!

I don't want to agree, but I think
Norah O'Donnell might be right, if our Republican officials don't
grow a pair we will never again win!

She's right. If not, Obama would not be POTUS 44.

And maybe the Democrats, liberals and leftists would not now control Congress.

 

Have Republicans 'Lost Their Cojones?'

They can't lose something they never had. 

The FEMINIZATION of the American male is ...

... ALMOST COMPLETE.  This is EXACTLY the kind of male FEMINAZIS have wanted for years.  Hey Norah, not all Republicans, just the ones in office.  I just checked and I STILL HAVE MINE.

Just thought I would add some drama to Norah's thoughts, hope you don't mind...

"There are two types of people in this country; those who provide freedom and those who enjoy it." MM says...

Ah...well

I've wondered the same thing myself many times. I understand McCain was running around today trying to get the vote done early. He is such a hall monitoring suck up. I can't say with 100% certainty Im not glad the SoB didn't win. I noticed too that the GOP equivelent of Chuck Schumer, Lindsay Graham got him some face time in with Obama and Biden the other day. Another girlie man who is a teacher's pet rat bastard, snitchin lil puke. The most dangerous place in Washington D.C. is between Schumer, Graham and a camera.

P.S. Hey, would you guys please quit putting Helen Thomas's picture at the top of the page. I just ate dinner and like to have shot the cat when I saw it. Thanks...Her face could snag lightning off a barbed wire fence.

Doug.... Her face could

Doug....

Her face could snag lightning off a barbed wire fence.

ROFLMAO!

That's a new one to me....I've never heard that before...still laughing....which is much needed.

I would say her face could

I would say her face could make a train take a dirt road.....

mb... LOL! Oh no...keep them

mb...

LOL!

Oh no...keep them coming...this is another one I haven't heard before...

The answer is YES!!!!!

And John McCain is a disgrace to the Republicans who held their noses to vote for him!  He and LG will be Dems 49 & 50 - they'll have the carpet worn bare by their many visits 'across the aisle'

Yep

Graham is shameless. He like to blew a brown nose guidance system chip trying to lock onto every important A** in Washington yesterday. I wonder how many hours he spent inside his locker in High School.

Cajones? - That is optional

Cajones? - That is optional equipment on an elected Republican Senator these days. Most of them didn't even bother showing up for the committee hearings.  But, hey, they were right there when their pay raises came in earlier this month.  What recession . . .

 

If our party is to have a

If our party is to have a chance of surviving, we must clean house in 2010!!

We must never again tolerate RINO's like: McCain, Graham, Specter, Hatch, Hagel etc. I'm seriously starting to question the intelligence of the folks in Arizona, South Carolina, PA, UT and Nebraska!! I for one will never again vote for Hatch!

I don't include Northeast Lib Republicans: Judd Gregg, Olympia Snowe, and Susan Collins. Consider their voter base. 

First, they must be voted out.......

of office, which I think in today's political climate is near impossible. Then a worthy successor must be found. (This should really be first)

When Spector was running for re-election in Pennsylvainia's Republican primary, Pat Toomey could not get enough votes to unseat the two timing, back stabbing, liberal wannabe that is Spector. My hopes for the party, and the loss of Santorum, started a downward spiral then which has not yet been checked.

Who cares about the Republican Party? If our country is ...

. . . to survive, somebody or somebodies who are not Democrats, liberals and leftists had better start showing some courage, leadership, wisdom and enthusiasm about standing for America.

Personally, I don't care if the Republican Party survives another day.

Except for a few bright spots here and there, its leadership has shown nothing that seems worthwhile to preserve.

 

A late response, but....

I should have clarified that with the conservative wing of the republican party. Any third party leadership is not going to make it in today's political climate, IMHO.
