Let me tell you something, you traitors to democracy...
Edited on Sat Feb-21-04 05:11 PM by TruthIsAll
Let me tell you something, Karl Rove:
No matter how much you spend on slanderous ads, smears, doctored photos, payoffs and dirty tricks, we will trounce your ass in a landslide. The aroused Democratic base is awoken.

Let me tell you something, Ralph Nader:
No matter how much your inflated ego and affinity for Repukes who are paying you makes you want to run again, you have become irrelevant.

Let me tell you something, Scott McClellan:
No matter how much you try to evade and spin, real reporters will make you look like a fool every time.

Let me tell you something, Dick Cheney:
No matter how much you attempt to escape justice and intimidate patriots like Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame, your day of reckoning is near.

Let me tell you something, Antonin Scalia:
No matter how much you show disregard for democracy, your days are numbered.

Let me tell you something, Colin Powell:
No matter how much you continue to fabricate new justifications for invading Iraq, you have lost your credibility forever.

Let me tell you something, Richard Perle:
No matter how much you attempt to blame the CIA, we know about the Office of Special Plans.

Let me tell you something, George Tenet:
No matter how much you attempt to protect Bush, true CIA patriots will come forward and expose his lies.

Let me tell you something, Wally O'Dell:
No matter how much you think you can get away with hacking Diebold's computers to "deliver Ohio" for Bush, we are on to your game.

Let me tell you something, Bill Frist:
No matter how much you attempt to fool us into believing you were the object of a ricin attack, we know it was just a diversionary tactic to get sympathy after spying on internal Democratic emails.

Let me tell you something, Tom DeLay:
No matter how much you attempt to destroy the Democratic party by Dade recount rioting, Texas redistricting, California recalls and stealth Friday night congressional voting, you will lose your majority in a Democratic landslide.

Let me tell you something, George Bush:
No matter how much you attempt to pass the buck on 9/11, we have film of you sitting at Booker reading about goats 40 minutes after the first plane hit the WTC, when you should have been ordering our fighter planes into action to intercept the hijacked aircaft.

7. Traitors
What do you mean about Scalia's days being numbered? Supreme Court justices are appointed for life, I'm afraid we're stuck with the reactionary for years to come.

Otherwise, right on!

My idea for a commercial is talking about all the Pre-9/11 hints Dubya's administration ignored and then ending it by asking "What's he ignoring now?"

We have a right to be angry, what they're doing to our country...

21. re : "appointed for life" -- not exactly

Under Article III of the U.S. Constitution, federal judges serve "during good behavior".

If they fail to live up to this standard, they are subject to removal through the impeachment process (which is, imho, exactly what should be done to Rehnquist, Scalia, Thomas, Kennedy and O'Connor -- followed by prosecution).

38. SC justices can be impeached.
Or they can be forced into resignation.
Justice Abe Fortas was one of those who was forced into resigning due to Nixon. Nixon wanted to pack the courts with the usual right winged idiots and Fortas was a liberal. (Hmmm... just like someone else we know who wants to pack courts.) Like so much of what Nixon did, forcing Fortas resignation was criminal.

Yes, if the climate is right, Scalia can be impeached or forced into resignation for his obvious corruption.

by outing Valerie Plame, Cheney exposed us (you and I)to potential harm. This is government failing at it's most important task.

16. Let me tell you something, Dennis Hastert:
No matter how much you try to suppress the tragic truths of 9/11, no matter how much you try to obfuscate and cover-up this administration's failures and criminal conduct, it will all come down around your ears ... the truth will out and your conduct will result in your criminal prosecution right along with the rest of them ...

it will soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
for the times they are a-changing ...

source: http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2004/02/21/911_panel_presses_for_new_deadline/

9/11 Panel Presses for New Deadline


<snip>

"But House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert, Republican of Illinois, has said he is opposed to any delay. Many Republicans fear that a later deadline would put the release of a potentially damaging report on the terrorist attacks in the middle of the presidential campaign."


btw, nice post, TIA !!

17. you give me such hope, TruthIsAll
I know what you mean. I think the base is angered and the independents know something is amiss - America is badly off course and the traditional GOP thuggery and smear tactics just may not work this time. Can you even imagine them trying to use the phrase TAX AND SPEND LIBERAL? It's utterly laughable now.

20. Let me tell you something, Kenneth Lay:
No matter how much you are unseen and unheard, you will never escape the notice of us. We know that the energy papers that Dick Cheney is fighting to hide, prove that you helped plot and plan the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, and god knows where else, all before 9-11.

22. What about these traitors?
http://www.tompaine.com/feature2.cfm/ID/9843
While all of the Democratic presidential candidates (except Sen. Joseph Lieberman) criticize President George W. Bush for his unilateral recklessness in starting a war against Iraq, they are missing a larger point: The invasion was not just reckless. It was unconstitutional.

It is time to set the record straight. The United States Congress never voted for the Iraq war. Rather, Congress voted for a resolution in October 2002 which unlawfully transferred to the president the decision-making power of whether to launch a first-strike invasion of Iraq. The United States Constitution vests the awesome power of deciding whether to send the nation into war solely in the United States Congress.

Those members of Congress—including certain Democratic presidential candidates—who voted for that October resolution cannot now claim that they were deceived, as some of them do. By unlawfully ceding the war-declaring power to the president, they allowed the president to start a war against Iraq based on whatever evidence or whatever lies he chose. The members of Congress who voted for that October resolution are as complicit in this illegal war as is the president himself.
.....
Now let us turn to reality. In October 2002, Congress passed a resolution which stated: "The President is authorized to use the Armed Forces of the United States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in order to 1) defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq; and 2) enforce all relevant United States Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq." As he determines to be necessary and appropriate.

Congress cannot transfer to the president its exclusive power to declare war any more than it can transfer its exclusive power to levy taxes. Such a transfer is illegal. These are non-delegable powers held only by the United States Congress.

26. I second that, with an tiny little addition worthy of consideration:
To the folks who will be voting for their candidate who dropped out rather than supporting the DFL party and the nominated candidate: No matter how much your inflated ego and affinity for Repukes who are paying you makes you want to run again, you have become irrelevant.

Edited on Sun Feb-22-04 12:01 AM by Octafish
No matter what you think you can get away with by trashing the Constitution of the United States and enabling your perverted agenda regarding the neo-conferacy, you have been exposed as the traitor you are. Once an honest Attorney General presents the facts about you and the BFEE to a Grand Jury, you'll find yourself in an orange jail jumpsuit for the rest of your days. Even velvet curtains drawn across your mind's eye could not deny that Justice.

PS: Thanks a lot, TruthIsAll! Yours is as good a post as any, ever!

EDIT: Tyypoo.

37. "A nation can survive it's fools, and even the ambitious.
But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banners openly.

But the traitor moves among those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the galleys, heard in the very hall of government itself.

For the traitor appears not a traitor...He speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and wears their face and their garment, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.

He rots the soul of a nation...he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city...he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.

A murderer is less to be feared."

Cicero 42B.C.

Are you still afraid of being necklaced? What is the truth worth to the nation? Is it worth your $10 million salary?

Do you value your paycheck more than the truth?

If you do, you are worthless.
