2. I think there is a bullet with Karl's name on it.
Might come a little slower than we would like, but it's coming.

Methinks turdblossom will still get his due...

Toles is not only brilliant, I think his toon is the truth, the bullet IS still hanging there, imo. He may yet dodge it completely but I don't think he has yet.

Edited to correct a gender error, lol.

8. I don't think so
As another poster said, we've never seen "the letter", and it would be up to Luskin to release it, would it not?

We'll see. I don't mind waiting, and I have enough :popcorn: to last the duration.

Edited on Tue Jul-18-06 03:53 PM by symbolman
Believe Luskin? I thought every word he uttered was a LIE. At least that's what I've heard a Lot of when Leopold Indicted Rove those other two times.. Not specifically from you, not a personal attack here..

Now TOLES, THERE is someone with some Credibility, always on the mark, nothing shoddy about his work.. one of the best, him and Danzinger will strip the meat right off the Bones of any subject..

Fairly OLD cartoon, tho funny.. wonder if he'd be drawing that today.. doubtful, he's always ahead of the curve..

23. I really wish some people would make up their minds
one minute it's a dead horse, but not when Leopold believers want to talk about it.. until Leopold doubters make their statements, THEN it's a dead horse AGAIN :)

Why would I believe Luskin? I would assess the situation, as while Lawyers can BEND the truth or leave parts of it missing, they are required to follow the law.. I don't believe Luskin anymore than I believe Leopold.. tho I think Luskin is WAAAY better at his job than Leopold is..

But the fact that Fitz has made no statement (as he does not comment at ALL, unless he calls a news conference) is NOT proof that Luskin did NOT receive "the letter"..

Nothing but innuendoes from Leopold, half assed and irrational. Since he's indicted Rove TWICE now and been wrong, then why am I to believe ANYTHING he writes? What part is WRONG, which is correct.. is the glass half empty or full (of bullshit)?

But I've decided not to bother with him anymore, his last outburst was so bizarre, and then I realized that he's on some kind of medication, so I felt sorry for him, and it made me realise what most of his blather was all about..

No point in demanding reality from someone who can't help themselves.. so I'm all done with him, glorify all you want, tho I will still say that he in my opinion was INCORRECT on both Indictments..

25. Symbolman, I am sure Leopold would love to know that you
think about him all the time. This thread wasn't about Jason Leopold yet you brought him up in both your posts. :-)

28. Oh yeah, like I said I've thought about him
and his bizarre statements and feel sorry for him and he's no longer a person of interest to me, except that he's been incorrect both times he Indicted Rove..

Sorry, it's like a car crash, so fascinating that someone can be so incorrect and still be believeable..

Too bad for the poor man, all I have to say, now You may be the one beating a dead horse :)

33. Sorry I misread your post when I first looked at it
I thought it said, "Purrrrr.." and of course that would make sense being a cat_girl, but then I looked again and then thought, "hey, wait a minute,,," :)

I'm through bucking those who buy into some people and sites, their choice, free country.. I've pretty much made all the points I needed to make.. (was never given a satisfactor answer tho) and in some instances it reminds me of the old saying,

"Never teach a Pig to sing, it's a waste of your time.. and it annoys the Pig.." :)

37. And that's why YOU won't let it drop
NOW it's payback for all those who wouldn't shut up about the loser when HE WAS embarrassing you, until you caught yourself and doubled up the LA LA LA layer of your thin as gruel arguement..

Go annoy someone else, Leopold is toast, despite the mere 80 out of 90,000 people who bother to post about him anymore - and even when it gets to the point that I'm totally bored with Captain Incorrect, like Palestine folks or Isralies Leopold supporters keep dragging tires out in to the street and setting them afire, demanding his credibility back..

not gonna happen, many have moved on, but they STILL aren't going to TO or listening to anything that the Horseshit Whisperer spews, unfortunately even if it MAY be credible.. Like a virgin, he can't put his hymen back, and since his indescretion made a mockery of 5 years of my work, and hundreds of thousands of dollars of MY money banking on Left WIng credibility then sure, he was a focus of my rage..

But now YOU LA LA LA Leopold fans need attention and keep bringing him up - "Hey let's kick the thread by getting someone to bitch about Leopold, other wise it will drop.."

SO now the Leopold threads will be dropping, after the ones that no longer CARE about him or TO having screwed the pooch walk away.. but that doesn't make those that back Leopold RIGHT, nor do they WIN.. they've just annoyed others into leaving the subject, funny, that's how many right wingers think they've 'won' an arguement.. the other side walks away in disgust.. well, so do the people standing on the sidewalk who witnessed it, and others walk away shaking their heads, but the right winger doesn't SEE that.. no, they've WON :)

Enjoy your glass hero.. keep the stones away, he's so delicate. Just make sure he takes his meds so he sounds remotely normal.

22. Symbolman, I didn't participate in those threads
>At least that's what I've heard a Lot of when Leopold Indicted Rove those other two times.. Not specifically from you, not a personal attack here..<

My point is this.
Luskin has never released the letter he received from Patrick Fitzgerald, which tells me that there were items in the letter he did not want the public to see.

No more, no less.

Thanks,
Julie

24. Understood
that's why I mentioned the same, that I hadn't see you personally say that..

Luskin is doing his job, and maybe there are things in that letter that he doesn't want the public to see, so I am waiting too :)

17. Nothing wrong with giving a man
his own rope to hang himself with.

By letting Rove and Novak off the hook for the moment doesn't mean that can't change if 'new' evidence presents itself. With Novak flapping his trap all over TV it appears they've taken the rope hook, line and sinker.

19. Hopefully there are thousands of tiny pellets with Fitz's name on them
buzzing around in the direction of Cheney.

32. Yes he did
We will never know...what dirt they had on Fitzgerald or his family.


Nobody has seen all the grand jury transcripts...so no one knows the scope of this investigation.


It's possible that Fitzgerald...went farther then just PLAMEGATE.


Many people came out of the woodwork to hand over info, that had nothing to do with PLAMEGATE.
