  • They'll never admit it to the rest of us, but they're convinced deep down that the Attorney General is...

Doncha think that about covers it?

yes...

yes... right after katrina removed the veils on the nation's eyes... and the tide turned in November... yep...

whiney and petulant... yep... that about sums them up... whiney and petulant... don't you agree, Mr and Ms Lurker?

As the chasm between the elites and the rest of us grows exponentially, people are starting to wake up to who the facilitators really are...and how they have mortgaged our future with unwinnable war, stupid tax cuts for Bill Gates and crushing debt to Communist China.

I hear tell that they don't even want to refer to themselves as Republicans anymore...
Well, they certainly won't want their true label... the cheap labor conservatives, so what do they want to be called now? the weasels?

Why I bet they have the real life equivelent of Abby working on the project right now... computer forensics...

How come the White House is using other than official email services for official business? Isn't that a nono?

got handcuffs?

Re: Republicans Call For Gonzales' Resignation

Of course that's a no-no, Stripey!

Do you think that Turdblossom Rove hesitated for even a nanosecond? These thugs don't care two hoots in a high wind about the rule of law; all they care is what they can get away with. It's been a lot so far, but these last two years are going to be mighty interesting. (As in that Chinese curse: May you live in interesting times.)

That's why It tickles me that they call Rep. Henry Waxman "the most dangerous man in Congress." He's a little bald nebbish guy with glasses...but he isn't going to take any nonsense from war-crazed neocons! He's going to make 'em sorry they tried to hide the e-mails. Pat Leahy in the Senate is breathing some fire, too.

The fun has just begun.

The White House wants to read your emails, but they somehow misplaced their own emails.

A bit hard to believe.

Tell you what though, things keep going the way they are and they're going to have to change the theme of the banners for USPOL here.
May I suggest a Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers theme?

Hi Stymie! Welcome to the club! You're welcome for the memories too, btw. It was a nice spirit back then, wasn't it? I think we need a bit of it again.

Now that you've blown your cover in your virginal post what's your thoughts on all this?

Oh, btw, don't forget Country Cowfreak- he knew how to do his time!

Re: Republicans Call For Gonzales' Resignation

Surprise, Surprise, Surprise!

The New York Times tells us that some of those millions of missing e-mails may be related to the purge of US attorneys. Who'da thunk it?

In a related story, White House suckfish Fred Fielding, says they have NO intention of either turnimng over RNC e-mails or allowing Turdblossom Rove to give sworn testimony. Rep. John Conyers, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, responded with the equivalent of "Bite me!"

Doesn't it feel like it's getting a trifle warm in here?
