5. It worked for me the first try.
Joe Wilson is very calm and did a good job. He will make a great witness!

3. Washington may still be "Karl Rove's town" but the taxpayers
still pay the bills!

10. Mine Too Professor
Here's what we're going to need to do:

Takin' the country back
It's high time we face the facts
Heart and soul slippin' through the cracks
We're takin' the country back
Takin' the country back
We're not sure just where it's at
We've got to get it back on track
We're takin' the country back

The rest of the song 'Takin' the Country Back' by Jon Anderson is here:

http://www.martystuart.com/zlyrics-TakinCountryBack.htm

I wish they'd played it every night at the democratic convention.

17. The Devil (Jack Welch) made her do it!
It's the least he could do after the GOPers got him out of dredging up an entire river bottom for a hundred miles down stream, because GE had dumped PCB in it for years. We are talking Billions of dollars, because what they dredged up(millions of tons)would have been so toxic it would have had to be placed in waterproof containment, to stop it from contaminating the ground water where it would have been stored. Now thanks to the GOP and Cheney/Bush, anyone who drinks water drawn in by towns downstream from GE, or eats a fish out of that river will probably have a cinder block baby or die of cancer like the fish do. I believe that because GE owns NBC, there will be nothing but gentle treatment by anyone connected with NBC, of anything Bushco does.

But what the Hell? It's just politics...

7. Wilson is always a class act.
I hope he will seek office or take a high level position in some future administration.

11. Thanks for linking this. Wilson is certainly to be admired for his
courage and honesty. Something this Administration would know nothing about.

14. He made an excellent point about Rove 'naming' Valerie
He said "she is a Wilson. Mrs. Joseph Wilson. Valerie Wilson.'

That about sums it up for me - no matter how Rove tried to spin it, he named her, plain and simple.

Now, let's see chimpy try to get out of this one. If he does fire KKKarl, watch for him in some other (if not meaningless) job connected with B*shco in the future.

19. Doesn't play on Mac either . . .
"Your operating system is not supported by MSN".

I tried Firefox, Safari and IE. Same message for all. Oh well. Good for Joe Wilson. "Her name is Mrs. Wilson". *lol*

16. It played for me
A little choppy from dialup, but Wilson is still as cool as a cucumber. The president says he is a man of his word. If his word is his bond then he should fire Karl Rove.

Washington is Roves world, we just live in it. - Dana Milbank

I for one am tired of living in this Rovian World. Let's try another clown. The BFEE is full of them.

21. Gangel: As Milbanks Say "It's Karl Rove's World"...
Sheesh. That really does sum up the corporate media's mindset in this entire fiasco. This man scares the shit out of them and are so compromised now they look so insipid.

Wilson is marvelous. He lays it out like he always has...with a lot of conviction and guts. I really admire that man.

BTW...anyone know if there's a quick link to a video of Wilson's speech saying he'd love to see Rove frog marched? Methinks that speech would be fun viewing in light of recent developments.

27. It's Still About Rove...Amazing
The line that really got me in that whole report was O'Donnell (not the good ones) summation that said how this story is really about Rove's preservation rather than if this bastard leaked Plame's name and the moral, if not legal, breaches to the American people this caused.

The corporate media is starting to get scared.

24. I'm sure the good black citizens of D.C. are THRILLED to learn
that they are "owned" by a porky lying conniving white male who cheated and suppressed the voting rights of their brothers and sisters across America in two consecutive presidential elections (one of which involved a racist whispering campaign), in order to put his lying conniving drug-addiction addled white male buddy back into the Oval Office.

D.C. is not Karl Rove's world or his town. It ain't nobody's town but those that live there, and such arrogant assumptions are exactly what needs to be aired so the world can finally understand the hubris of the bush team.

OT, I think Joe Wilson is going to age into an incredibly great-looking man with a face reflecting wisdom and compassion tempered by experience. Compare him to bush, even now, and just see the difference in their aging faces over the past few years. Not always, but just generally speaking, by middle age you have earned the face you wear.
