need to let legal process continue
legal proceedings ongoing - let the process continue
(re fire Rove)
again, there is an ongoing investigation - let the legal process work - counseled not to discuss this matter while it continues - this means I won't respond to questions on this from this podium --

"You were wrong, weren't you?"
And the fact that Scottie STILL doesn't want to talk about it MEANS IT'S STILL AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION!!! Rove is NOT in the clear!!!

Gregory I think, quoting Scottie's lie, "they were not involved"
Gregory: "artful dodge", "we know for a fact there was involvement", "you were wrong, weren't you?"
Scottie covered in flop sweat: "could jeopardize the opportunity for a (sic) umpartial trial" hahahahaha

49. bird flu bullshit rap: |
|
contain and treat
develop vaccines
save lives
builds upon what we've already done as a country that is leading the way in addressing the effect from a flu outbreak
accelerating efforts to develop next generation of vaccines (cell based vs. egg based) - we have mfg capacity to produce quickly - we do know from history there have been outbreaks of bird flu - something we need to take seriously - that's why POTUS has been leading the way - enhancing domestic preparedness - did blah blah blah since 2001 - added flu to list of quarantinable conditions - discussed with Berlusconi over lunch (was chicken on the menu?)
Translation: martial law coming right up

Q: commentary from Dems that Pubes succumbed to pressure from far RW. Do you expect to have a fight?:
McMaggot: "certainly hope not"... "affirmed by unanimous consent previously" ... "POTUS hopes for civil and dignified process" ... "up or down vote"... "brilliant mind"... "highest integrity"... "thoughtful and deliberate" .... (um, I think you meant Fitzpatrick with those last three comments, dufus)
Q: SCOTUS different than Circuit Court?
McMaggot: "if you look at the precedents, no reason they should not move forward in civil and dignified way..."
