Original article: It was a joke (we think)

That other joke

about being dictator isn't so funny now, is it?

One true patriot

Someone who will stand up to corporatists and say no. I signed the support letter and I donated to his campaign. So far, Dodd is the ONLY DEMOCRAT that cares about his country and it's people. It brings me to tears.

"He has to address that"

No he 9/11 doesn't 9/11. All he has 9/11 to do is 9/11 keep reminding people 9/11 that he saved the entire Earth 9/11 on 9/11 by walking down 9/11 the streets of New York and 9/11 getting getting 9/11 dirty. As long as 9/11 he vows to 9/11 keep people 9/11 safe from the boogy 9/11 man, he'll win 9/11.

His parents

Are the ones who let him get this way and refused to make him accept responsibility for ANYTHING. Thank you George and Barbara, your offspring has destroyed America. That should make you very proud.

For a better job

With Blackwater and a high 6 figure salary. Ain't it great that a government official can steal billions of dollars from his employers(us) and still get an excellet job with his fellow criminals? What a country!

Do what you want

Write about it. Talk about it. Bring it up in congress. Rally the people. Hold a protest. March in the streets. Get arrested. Blanket every newspaper with headlines. Get the entire population of America behind you.

It won't do squat! King George rules America. His agents are everywhere. In all the agencies, in all the departments. In the Republican party, in the Democratic party. In the Army, Navy, Marines, and Air Force. In the House, in the Senate. In the local, federal, and Supreme courts.

Congress will not protect us. Dude, we been coup'd. Remember the movie 'Red Dawn'? Well, it's not a movie anymore. We're there.

Original article: Perino watch, again

She forgot to mention

that the innocent Iraqi civilians killed by US forces would have dieed eventually anyway. These Republicans aren't even trying to hide their contempt for the press anymore. And the press LOVES it. I sure hope this presidential 'spokesmodel' thing catches on, just think of Miss Teen West Virginia as mouthpiece for Prez Rudy!

Pro-Tyranny platform

Rudy is evidently running on a Pro-tyranny platform. Elect me and you'll never have to elect anyone else again. We are truly living in bizzaro land when an American can run for president by advocating the torture of human beings. Well, not really an American, a Republican.

Well, I never

heard it put better. You, sir, have been reading my mind. There has never been a way to even slow down these criminals without impeaching them. And even then, would they voluntarily submit to removal from office? Could Bush not just order an airstrike on congress? Could he not, with the help of the military, hold power despite being impeached? I believe the answer is yes. No ruling or law or court order or even act of God will displace these murderers. I predict that there will be no 2008 elections. I predict martial law and Blackwater patroling the streets. I predict an end to America. RIP.

The rumors of his demise

are greatly exaggerated. Mukasey WILL be confirmed for AG. With Democratic support. And he will be just as you say, a cog in the machine willing to do whatever it takes to destroy American democracy. If he's a Republican, he's a criminal. Simple as that. But the Dems are SOOOOOO afraid of being called names, they will give away our freedoms and rights. We have no saviors. We have no heros. Only frightened children pretending to be tough. The country is so over. RIP America.

Di Fi to the rescue......

She'll make sure Bush gets what he wants She always does. I wonder when the voters of Galiforiniah will wake up and smell the BushDog? Torture will be enshrined as a part of American foreign policy and congress will be impotent. When Mukasey gets confirmed, congress should just pack up their bags and head home. If they think they're irrelevant now, wait until presidential ruling by fiat becomes the norm. He won't even have to acknowledge theri existance.

Original article: Conyers moves on contempt

The law does not apply

to Republicans any more. Bush could eat a live baby on TV and congress would 'send him a letter'. There is no dealing with these people any more. It's either impeachment or armed revolt. You choose, congress.

Schumer is a Republican

He should be recalled by the voters of NY. Thanks, Chuck, for turning over the DO'J' to the Neocons. With liberty and justice for Republicans. I am so livid. Now, not only can Bush torture any U.S. citizen he wants to, he can break the law at will as well as legislate at will as well as order a nuclear attack on Iran as well as dissolve congress(probably just as well). Schumer is a traitor, a liar, a murderer, and a common thief. May the powers of the universe conspire to render his offspring infertile in hopes of ending his poisonous bloodline forever. Burn in hell, Chuck. With the rest of your Neocon pals.

Original article: Iraq taught us nothing

Stop saying 'Us'

'We' did not invade Iraq. The Republican Party invaded Iraq. 'We' did not decide the middle east policy for the government of the U.S., Bush and the neocons did. And you're wrong about Iraq teaching us nothing. It taught us all that war is only a pretext for amassing political power and hyper-wealth. And by the way congress is dealing with Iran, they understand the pretext and are willing, no, eager, to go along. After all, as the bumper sticker on my truck says, War=Profit, Vote Republican.

WOW

I thought Hillary was supposed to be tough? Wha happened? There is NOTHING worse than someone who acts tough and then send their surrogates out to whine. It shows duplicity. And the LAST thing this damn country needs now is another duplicitious president. We need Dodd. He ain't cryin'.
