Dear Anonymous:

So the Republican front runner is a liar and an idiot of a magnitude equal to Bush.

I don't think anybody said exactly that, but to clarify for your tiny brain:

The thrice-married, twice divorced "Catholic" Republican front runner is a liar and hypocrite of a magnitude equal to Bush, however, when it comes to being a complete fucking idiot -- nobody -- not even Rudy -- can compete with Dubbya.

Did Rudy mention that his fucking Yankees got their asses kicked by a team with a $65,000,000 payroll?

How you like them Big Apples, Rudy, ya mediocre son-of-a-bitch?

Go Tribe.

A-fucking-men. And a tip of the hat to Elizabeth Edwards . . .

who in a more perfect world would be the Democratic candidate for President in '08.

I'd quit my job and take to the road to campaign for her.

Dear Elephantboy and Anonymouse . . .

just go back to licking Rush's ass will you, and stop bothering the non-dittoheads.

And the Democrats say: "Can I get an amen?" AMEN!!!

They probably hope this pathetic loser sticks around as long as possible in the Senate. What with Domenici and Stevens and now Craig . . . things look up for '08. I know Idaho is moonbat crazy survivalist central . . . but COULD a Democrat win after this fiasco??

Seems possible.

Clear Channel couldn't have made it clearer . . .

. . . they give their undiluted support to fatass draft-dodging cowards who avoid service due to giant pimples on their ass, then turn into Oxycontin-fueled serially adulterous blowhards.

Thanks for the clarification, CC.

Worst Advice Ever.

If his daughter were a crankhead, should he start smoking meth with her?

Take her to a homeless shelter and volunteer in the soup line. Go to Habitat for Humanity builds and swing a hammer. Take her to visit at nursing homes. Hell, take her to the golf course and walk in the wonders of nature.

Religion is not rational. Provide her with an alternative that is. And don't worry about allaying her fears . . . it's probably just existential dread . . . and it's good for her.

A mediocre, whining, self-pitying Uncle Tom.

Congratulations, Clarence, have you kissed the Man's ass enough yet? You appointed Bush president, you got into Yale Law thru affirmative action (unlike Anita Hill, who got in because she deserved it); then tried to deny it for others; and you have an unrivaled string of judicial decisions on behalf of the corporate overlords.

A Citizen's Suggestion to George Walker Bush.

Print the following on a large sheet of butcher paper:

F-U-C-K-I-N-G M-O-R-O-N

Paste it on the top of the vanity mirror in the bathroom. Look at it carefully. Wait for the enlightenment to come.

Dear Anonymous: Suggest you shut up when you don't know what you're talking about.

It MAY be a high crime but ONLY if the US Supreme Court were to judge it as such.

Wrong. Wrong. WRONG.

The determinator of what constitutes guilt or innocence of a crime is the "trier of fact". In a matter of impeachment, the Senate (and public opinion) is the "trier of fact."

The fucking Supreme Court never enters into it. Accept Roberts has to sit in the Chamber while its going on.

Original article: Oversight is for wimps

RE: High crimes and misdemeanors necessary for impeachment.

Regrettably, Anonymous, the President has admitted violating Title 50 US Code, Chapter 36, Subchapter 1, Section 1800 et seq. (aka the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978). He admitted this with the provision that "it does not apply to him in his capacity as Unitary Leader and Commander in Chief." The law of course, holds otherwise. But for some reason, AlLberto Gonzales never saw fit to enfore the law.

The Act makes any warrantless wiretap under color of authority a felony punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a $10,000.00 fine. For each infraction. 1,000 wiretaps = 5,000 years in prison and a $10,000,000.00 fine.

So, enough of the meme that we need a high crime. We've got an admitted high crime. All we need is a Legistlature with gonads and a sense of duty.

So let me get this straight . . . the murderous thugs at Blackwater have access to classified State Department documents . . . but a legitimate oversight committee of Congress does not??

Cause I was just going thru my copy of the Constitution looking for the part about corporate overlords . . .

Talk about an overarching academic exercise in Cover Your Ass.

There's nothing wrong with asking questions; but these were disingenuous and pathetic.

A Brief Review

What US has done to Iran:

1953, overthrew the moderate, secular, democratically elected Mossadegh government, installed a monarch on the Peacock Throne. Armed the Shah's army, sold them over-priced weaponry; trained the SAVAK, the dreaded Iranian secret police.

After the Shah was deposed, allowed him sanctuary in US along with the $12,000,000,000.00 he stole from the Iranian treasury.

Turned US Embassy into a CIA spy nest.

July 3, 1988, USS Vincennes shoots down Iran Air airliner, killing all 290 passengers and crew aboard, including 38 non-Iranians and 66 children. The Vincennes was inside Iranian territorial waters at the time.

1980-1988 Provided arms and intelligence to US ally, the murderous dictator Saddam Hussein, and encouraged him to wage war against Iran. 1,000,000 persons were killed in the war.

What Iran has done to US:

Seized hostages at CIA-ridden US Embassy. Later, released all hostages.

May supply Shia militia in Iraq with arms and explosives.

Sorry, Charlie, Wrong Tuna.

No one, including Hon. Michael Mukasey, should even be considered for the vacant AG post until they answer one question, posed under oath:

As attorney general, will you enforce the law; specifically, George Bush's admitted violations of Title 50 US Code, Chapter 36, Subchapter 1, Section 1800 et seq., i.e., the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, which makes any warrantless wiretap a felony punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a $10,000.00 fine? For each wiretap. 1,000 wiretaps = 5,000 years in prison and a $10,000,000.00 fine.

Yes or no?

Original article: Quote of the Day

I can think of a better way, McCain, you mediocre sack of shit.

We can bring home the troops from Iraq, and concentrate of finding Osama bin Laden, the guy responsible for the deaths at the WTC.

Wednesday, September 12, 2007 01:22 PM

It's not like you expect Tony Snow to tell the truth about ANYTHING, let alone Iraq.

What a career arc: from very highly-paid-media-whore to not-quite-as-highly-paid media whore. Maybe he can go back to Fox.
