McCain should seek profesional help, and stop smoking crack.

when he said he was a gun owner and a lifetime hunter of varmints. Does the BS get any steamier. Crooked politicians all have the same MO. If there is a visual/audio record of their lies, they claim to have misspoken or, assert that what you heard them say is not what they said/meant. If there's no record they don't recall or recall something self-serving, to the best of their recollection.

Now add to the toolbox; I was wrong but hey it was just good harmless fun with some good ol' boys and a few snipers along for the ride. Hell, I always take along helicopter air cover when I walk to the local market.

Frankly, I find the notion that he ever had the wherewithal to lead our nations law enforcement aparatus laughable. His stammering and confusion are not the result of a person being inerently honest. They are the manifestation of his inability to perform the calculas necessary to lie and not get caught.

why Keane and these other "men of honor" can refuse to report for duty, but a soldier with PTSD and a fractured back can be recalled poorly armed, inadequately equiped, under-trained, and sent to Iraq within a few weeks?

1. There's a real smoking gun email indicating the president's involvement in or prior knowledge of the outing of Valerie Plame. These emails pre-date Bush's televised claims that he would fire anyone involved.

2. There is a chain of emails that exposes the Bush administration knew there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

3. Emails show that Rumsfeld, Gonzales, Cheney, and Bush sanctioned the abuse at Abu Gharib and Gitmo.

4. Emails show coordination between the RNC, the Bush WH, and the political hacks in New Hampshire who were indicted in the phone jamming voting scandal.

5. Emails detail how the Bush adminstration cycnically used terror alerts to change the national subject.

Feel free to add more.

and shame on the spineless Democrats who are living down to the DemocRat party smear. At the very least Cheney should be censured for telling a member of congress to go f*ck himself on the floor of the senate chamber.

can do significant damage to the nation and the world when they are (s)elected President. It is proper and appropriate for Thompson, and George Allen for that matter, to be loudly taken to task for their maccaca moments. It is unfortunate that there was not the same level of outrage and outcry when George W. Bush made an even bigger ass of himself while speaking in an ungaurded moment to Tucker Carlson about death row inmate Karla Faye Tucker. Bush's clear contempt for human life and practiced lack of Christian ethic should have sent up a red flag to the nation.

Amen, brother! The Democrats should have filbustered until they dropped. Then double-dog-dared the republicans to demonstrate their contempt for congressional traditon and institutional stability by instituting the so called "newkewlar option."

I hit up the web sites of the so-called MSM FoxNews, CNN, ABC and MSNBC. Here are their headlines:

Fox: Decision to Fire Attorneys

'Justified and Should Stand'Gonzales stands by firings of prosecutors

MSNBC: Firings"Justified"

CNN: Gonzales: No partisan politics in prosecutor firings

ABC: Gonzales Faces Skepticism From Lawmakers

All of these "news" outlets managed to find a suitably heroic picture of Gonzales emphatically hammering his point home. It looks like the spin cycle has started already.

he has no concern about political consequences. He is a lame duck. In his reality bubble he's not up for relection so, he can ignore the will of the people. He is fond of saying he is the "decider" and he doesn't not make policy based on opinion polls. He makes his own reality, then initiates a marketing campaign to make sure "the murican people fully unnerstan."

I say pass the appropriations bill with a firm deadline for troop withdrawals, let Bush veto it, then shine a right light on Republican members of congress who refuse to vote to overide. After all, they do have concern about political consequences.

doesn't make policy based on opinion polls.

has the putrid stench of Donald Rumsfeld all over it.

Mansfield would concede that the "strong executive" should not be an imbecile?

but when the wall came down, she was just as surprised as the kid who mows my lawn. Then her less than deep understanding of the KGB and all things Soviet allowed Putin to make a complete ass out of Cowboy Bush. Instead of looking into his eyes, Bush and NSA Rice should have been looking into his dossier.

He feels violtated. They wouldn't let his wife go to the bathroom without an escort. Welcome to the world you created for everybody else Mr. Dolittle. I'd love to know where came down on the illegal wire taps. Many of his Constitution shredding Republican cronies were babling something about not having anything to worry about if you didn't do anything wrong. Now you're reaping what you sowed.

The invasion/occupation of Iraq is a clusterf*ck. The highly paid 30 year-old non-arabic speaking political appointee hacks "in charge" don't know their assess from bomb craters. And, it has not occured to anyone that the pallets of US currency that have gone missing might have been used to build, supply, and staff hospitals for injured Iraqi soldiers and civilians. It's Katrina, da remix.

Pelosi and Reid need to stop pussy-footing around commence impeachment proceedings immediately against Rice, Cheney, and Gonzales. Ms. Rice continues to demonstrate her contempt of congress, refusing to honor a subpoena. Gonzales shows up and repeats the exact same testimony. I say fine. Impeach him, let these idiot Republicans go on record supporting him, and pay the electoral consequences. Until the Democrats muster the stones to impeach someone who so obviously deserves it, they will continue to be smirked at by self-serving imbeciles with no respect for the rule of law.
