Joe Pesci said that as he was accepting his best-supporting-actor Oscar for "Goodfellas." I always liked that quote.
Thanks, TC!

I forwarded it to Nancy Pelosi. I know she won't read it, but perhaps if thousands of people sent this to her, she would... :eyes:

11. No kidding! Thanks! I'm hoping we overwhelm them with emails. |

This is just beyond too much. cheney is just beyond too much. We HAVE to SAVE our country. Every minute this dreadful situation continues is a minute too long.
Thank you for your activism! Also, there are always those handy TOLL FREE Capitol Hill switchboard numbers, some listed in my sig line below.

And I really hope that someone takes you up on the core message and starts asking everyone they interview about these matters -- but especially members of Congress -- "And you're okay with this?".
Very powerful.

13. Thanks. IMHO, it just HAS to be asked - of everyone. ARE YOU OKAY with this? |
|
I know we and others among the enlightened are not. I want to know why others are, and put 'em on the spot about it. They're REALLY okay with this? Really????

9. Great article. But when I popped on the page and saw bush** |
|
and his picnic buddy Nancy, I thought that was supposed to be bush** asking her "are you with us".
In which case the answer would have been yes.

22. I once, in frustration, had a bunch of buttons made up with bush's face |
|
on them and the words "I'm With Stupid." We did it in conjunction with a website called the Progressive Portal.
I think I'll try to find the rest of 'em (they're in storage somewhere) and start sending them to Madam Speaker. :evilgrin:
And thank you for the kick!

12. What an excellent piece...I believe that Journalism is not dead... |

but Rip vanWinkle looks like a a speedfreak compared to what passes as the 4th Estate these days.
Excellent piece of work...:D

an amazing epitaph on cheney.
It appears that our Dems that we worked so hard to get the majority in 2006 are going down in history as all but enablers.
I hope I'm wrong but they seem like they're catatonic.

31. Galling, isn't it? I hope you and I are both wrong on that. |

What will signal that we're wrong, at least to me, is when either Leahy or Waxman or Conyers or SOMEBODY starts taking steps to ENFORCE the subpoenas. If they don't, we now risk seeing the very act of subpoena'ing someone now reduced to mockery status. Just like what's happened to the act of IMPEACHMENT. AND to the Constitution. AND the rule and spirit of some obscure little irrelevant nothing some people refer to as "the law."
If we don't put some teeth behind these steps, we reduce OURSELVES to rogue status with bush/cheney and fiends.

And you know what it is? It's not the artists who really did this song, it's Cheech Marin in one of the Cheech & Chong movies, singing that to himself as he bops along through his day. I think it was after he'd just awakened after some wild night and the house is full of kids and other people and the cartoons are on the TV and he attempts to arise from the sofa and steps into a half-finished bowl of cornflakes on the floor. I could be mixing C&C movies here. :rofl:
