Kudos to the the Senate Judiciary Committee, Leahy, Biden, Feingold, Whitehouse, Kennedy and yes,

Specter (R), for doing such a fine job detailing the politicization of the Department of Justice, the obfuscation of the facts (lies) and the Department's failure to uphold objective ethical standards as our primary law enforcement agency.

I doubt many saw today's proceedings, but they are worth seeing. I assume C-SPAN has the video available on demand.

1. They really have moved mountains.

I was thinking this same thing today. All of the work they've put into uncovering and opening closed doors. It gives me high hopes that this country is still functioning.

Thanks!

2. I followed the threads and it seems that all mentioned did have their

hearts and minds in the right place.

For those who can't watch, the DUblogging threads were EXCELLENT. I could feel the tension through the PC.

5. Another good place to follow the hearing

is Firedoglake. Christy Hardin Smith liveblogged the hearings, with occasional comments, much as Firedoglake covered the Libby trial and other DC-based events. Well done!

9. I saw something that suprised me the other day. Someone had posted

something about Clinton's impeachment, and I noticed that snarlin' Arlen vote NO to conviction on both counts. I never knew that before..

For those who missed the evenet today; I feel it was a highlight of the hearings. If you cannot watch the entire thing now, at least catch this one snippet.

Lovely. Smashing news.

13. Gonzo is reduced to squeaky responses bordering on gurgling

How this second rate lawyer made it to the top can only be explained by Cronyism...he is a comple fool.
