Weren't Harriet Meyers and Rove to be charged with contempt of congress after August recess?
Remember that? Did that go down some black hole? They didnt answer subpoenas in total contempt of congress, if I recall correctly, and after the August recess they were to be dragged in front of congress by the sargent of arms to answer for it. Looks like the cowardly democratic congress has done it to us again.

C'mon Leahy, we haven't forgot what you promised us. If you cave on this democracy is over, you will have effectively crowned George king.

3. Oh come on! That was just some summer-time red meat for
the lefties and the progos. No one was really serious about all that stuff. I think that they actually pissed-off the Dictator, so now is the time to lay low and keep that powder dry! Remember, "watch what you say"...

4. So, rank and file Democrats are just as willing to shrug it off as the wet noodle congress?
Tis a sad world we live in, indeed.

6. Remember the Democratic Mantra:
"We have no other choice. We have no other choice." It is just a cool kinda game - except for the suffering and dying and all...

5. That stuff is over. Same with Gonzales.
We got played by our party leadership. All those people are off the radar now.

My loathing for this pathetic congress is slowly metastasizing into dread.
