good lord! Next, he'll be putting Ann Coulter on the Cons' witless list for testimony.

[KoKo]

16. You can see why Sessions is so dumb....

[Ghost in the Machine]

26. I liked Sessions better when he played 'banjo boy' on Deliverance

[Norquist Nemesis]

31. He's not dumb. Wholly partisan, but not dumb

If nothing else, he's a good clue at the latest talking point. He's on the leadership team for garbage.

[KoKo]

19. Sounds drunk today....I haven't heard his speech so slurred before...

[bobthedrummer]

17. Sessions invokes Malkin in regards to another case of child predation

yet this general subject is often ignored here-especially when all the structures to prevent and prosecute fail and we ask how and why

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

20. I'm still digesting the Whitehouse session

Gonzo~ "We BELIEVED we had the AG approval" for those first two years. Whitehouse got something revealed here. And about the Document being in the WH records. Interesting.

[debbierlus]

25. Yes, that was good.

[KoKo]

27. Speculation is that there were Two Programs and Asscroft approved an illegal one Comey found out

about.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

47. I don't know, just can't see Ashcroft going against the Constitution.

Anal type, truly devote to his job. He has never been called to testify has he. Why?

[AndyTiedye]

149. We Started Liking Ashcroft Better for Saying No to Gonzales, But…

…someone should ask him what he knew about 9/11 and when he knew it!

(CBS WASHINGTON, July 26, 2001) Fishing rod in hand, Attorney General John Ashcroft left on a weekend trip to Missouri Thursday afternoon aboard a chartered government jet, reports CBS News Correspondent Jim Stewart.

In response to inquiries from CBS News over why Ashcroft was traveling exclusively by leased jet aircraft instead of commercial airlines, the Justice Department cited what it called a "threat assessment" by the FBI, and said Ashcroft has been advised to travel only by private jet for the remainder of his term.

"There was a threat assessment and there are guidelines. He is acting under the guidelines," an FBI spokesman said. Neither the FBI nor the Justice Department, however, would identify what the threat was, when it was detected or who made it.

38. Wanna take bets that the WH will refuse to relase the document

And when they're finally forced to, it's nowhere to be found, and no one can remember what happened to it?

:shrug:

[bdamomma]

43. I hope Leahy was listening,

that time when Whitehouse held up that chart, was when Leahy said I haven't seen something like that in 33 years or something like that, that is when he knew Whitehouse was sharp and concise. Not bragging but Senator Whitehouse is my Senator!!

[debbierlus]

22. What a arrogant lil turd....You can't touch me -

I won't leave - you won't stop me. So ask all your questions....

[flyarm]

28. call this jerks office and tell them you are going to spend your money seeing him lose his seat!!

[KoKo]

30. Sessions wants to reduce penalities for crack and cocaine....hmmm

[KoKo]

37. Leahy wants higher penalities for Rich persons Cocaine than poor Crack users.

[mod mom]

33. Shumer coming up but Session up again brings up Crack v Coke. Crack more

dangerous.

[Hubert Flottz]

42. They need to ask senator Vitter about Crack...

[KoKo]

44. Is Schumer getting to the "two programs" separate from the one Gonzo talks about?

[KoKo]

50. Schumer says entire Justice to resign over program that Gonzo said

wasn't a problem

[Norquist Nemesis]

Did you catch the look the twins behind Gonzo gave each other

on that answer? Gonzo answered it was "one" and they looked at each other, sort of smiled, then readjusted in their seats looking like it was a small relief. :shrug:

[mod mom]

46. Shumer : Pick up where Specter lives off. One program that Prez confirmed.

Chart. AG said No serious disagreement w the concerns about program, but then Comey testified.

[bobthedrummer]

63. Gonzo snarks back at Schumer....GOOD!

[L. Coyote]

76. "How can you say you have not deceived the Committee?"

"These are your words...?" Schumer.

Gonzolies, "I did miss speak."

"I'm just asking you a simple yes or no question..." "I'd like to get an answer..."

This is going to be the YouTube highlight!

[spanone]

51. Schumer......Proving Gonzo LIED

[Blackhatjack]

52. "Help us understand how you did not mislead the Committee?" Schumer

you're not being straightforward with us, you tell mis truths?"

He's LYING! Just say so!

[napi21]

It's got something to do with Congressional and committee rules.

There was an issue about this in a sub committee hearing about a week ago that Loretta Sanchez chaired and Watt of NC called the Prez a liar.

[jojo54]

113. Gonzo's on the ropes!!!!!!

[quiet.american]

114. Gonzo straight out LYING about Comey's statement.

Saying the disagreement wtih Comey was about something else entirely than what Comey testified about!

[Blackhatjack]

116. IMPT!! Gonzo is now admitting that there 'were other intelligent activities' --more than 1 program

[L. Coyote]

118. This is the END of Gonzolies. "I've never heard anything like this." Schumer.

Turning point in US Judicial history. AG lies at hearing.

Gonzo is so over!! "Discrepancy in sworn testimony," Leahy.

[rodeodance]

136. yes, he is cooked-and he did it to himself!

[kestrel91316]

145. How is it the end of him??? He WILL NEVER RESIGN. NEVER.

[L. Coyote]
