Greetings House Committee on the Judiciary:
Under the authority given them by their constitutional oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, the House and Senate Committee's on the Judiciary must indict and impeach this entire Executive Branch before November 2008.
Imperative to the Office of the Attorney General of the United States is the prosecution of obstruction of justice in the Executive Branch, its Cabinet of Advisors, and in key positions of House and Sentate Judicial Committee's.
Allegiance to Executive Branch obstruction of justice is insurrection against the American electorate. Allegiance to obsruction of justice are the attacks against the US Constitution at its core.
The natives are restless.

I have no evidence to prove that the bu$h administration is using their NSA spying powers for political purposes. But there sure are a lot of people who have mysteriously changed course to side with the bu$histas.
Think of all the insiders over the past 7 years who spoke out, only to recant their statements within days. (John DiIulio and Paul O'Neill immediately come to mind.) Then consider Democrats like Rockefeller, Harman, and Feinstein. They have all abandoned their party and their constituents by appeasing the bu$h/cheney war machine and the accompanying surveillance society.
It is my theory that the NSA spying apparatus is being used to gather compromising information on various politicians for the purpose of extorting their support/acquiescence to the extremist fascist policies being put in place.
How dare the PRC participate in the reality based community. What the hell are THEY thinking?
Next thing you know, high ranking government officials elsewhere in the world will want to proceed with policies based on empirical evidence, logic, pragmatism and rational behavior.
Snark off.
Gordon Brown, Angela Merkel, Vlad Putin and the rest of the world seem to be willing to wait Bush/Cheney out. I can't blame them for just circling 1-20-09 on the calendar.
What I wonder about is the unyielding administration support by RW Salon readers and LW’ers. Some of them apparently seem to understand and acknowledge, that this is happening; yet can’t depart from the RWA talking points.
I agree with you but LW'ers has me scratching my head..
Re: “gravitating to orbit around China”
If you want to understand the degree to which Chinese global influence is growing, take a look at testimony (published on-line by the Heritage Foundation) from Peter Brookes, Senior Fellow, National Security Affairs and Chung Ju-Yung Fellow for Policy Studies, Asian Studies Center before the House of Representatives April 6, 2005:

If you don’t have time to read the article, the following excerpt is a succinct summary of what is actually going on:
“Bottom line: China is pursuing a "realist" foreign policy in order to advance its national interests. The existence of dissatisfaction with Washington or American policies in global capitals only makes it easier. China’s grand strategy certainly applies to Latin America and the Caribbean, too.”
Meanwhile, this administration blindly continues to pursue diminution of Iran’s influence in the Middle East, costs be damned, through lies and deceit about their “nukular” ambitions:

I urge all UTers to read both of these articles. Please note that this administration is fearful that “realists” may influence what happens in Iran, to the detriment of their stupid world view, while the Chinese are pursuing an eminently successful “realist” foreign policy against our national interests in our own backyard. No wonder the Chinese continue to underwrite these “pay day” loans to his Royal Anus in order to fund this madness.

The government requires any firm that does business with them to monitor the blood chemistry of their employees to ensure that they are not apostates of the state religion.
The government flies aircraft over your neighborhood with infrared detection systems to measure the heat output of your home to make sure that you have no rooms that are too warm, since that would possibly indicate that you are apostate of the state religion.
The government colludes with the electric supply companies to make sure that you are not using too much electricity for your size and style of home. Again to make sure that you are not apostate of the state religion.
The government intercepts and reads/listens to all of your electronic communications.
The police shoot unarmed persons dozens of times and are not punished for that behavior.
The police perform break in raids on private residences, once again to assure that you are not an apostate of the state religion.
Your nation has a higher percentage of its citizens locked in cages than any other on the planet.
You might be a redneck if your minister uses Quaker State when he anoints you with oil.
You're wrong about this one, GlennIt doesn't happen often, but you're wrong about this one.
What would you have had Rockefeller and Harmon do? Would you have them getting classified briefings and then telling the world the contents of those briefings?
There are countless mechanisms available to a U.S. Senator or Representative to do something about illegal behavior they discover. Anyone -- not just someone in such a position -- has mechanisms available to them under whistleblower laws to intiate proceedings to investigate illegal government conduct. Why couldn't they have done that?
They could have also communicated much more aggressively within the government that unless the illegal behavior stopped, they would invoke those mechanisms. Why couldn't they have done that?

Point taken, sir. I was looking at it too narrowly.
But, I warn you, sometime in the future you really will be wrong about something. ;-)
Yes, indeed the Democrats have been compliant with the Administration from the get go.I really feel Bush has spied on our politicians in Washington, D.C. and has the goods on them. Who knows what it could be, but whatever it is none of them want it exposed. I truly believe this!
