[MNDemNY]

17. Kevlar would be more in order.

[Vilis Veritas]

63. What about Duct Tape?

I gots me a bunch of duct tape...

[Virginia Dare]

35. I'm not scared at all..

and I'm right here in D.C. They're like schoolyard bullies. They picked one too many fights. Let them burn the fucking city down for all I care, as long as justice is served.

[Vilis Veritas]

64. The only thing to fear is fear-mongering.

Peace.

;-)

[IChing]

[Vidar]

[Hepburn]

9. K&R!

Go get 'em, Sen. Leahy!

:applause:

[bigtree]

10. kick

:kick:

[MiniMe]

11. Brings up ideology vs competence

Go Pat!!

[IChing]

12. Byrd asked for Leahy to state what Goodling said about her oath again

That it was to the President and not the Constitution.

[lisa58]

22. That was Sara Taylor...

...Goodling worked for Gonzo

[EVDebs]

39. Irrelevent, since they ALL drank the same Kool-Aid ! nt

[buzzard]

13. Oath to constitution not to particular president or political party.

[rubberducky]

14. K&R

Yeah!!!!! Go, Leahy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Anita Garcia]

15. SUBPOENA

Leahy:
STOP THE STONEWALLING!

End the coverup!

[napi21]

16. "There's a cloud over this WH and a gathering STORM!"

Quote from Leahey on the Senate floor.

[MiniMe]

18. Good speech, he will put the rest in the congressional record

[MiniMe]

20. Glad I got it up quick enough for some of you to see it

As soon as I heard him come on and mention subpeona, I posted. I didn't even know what he was going to say, but I knew it would be big. :hi:

[IChing]

19. Leahy says there is a gathering storm

on the constitution and the foundations of our government.

Now they are just talking about some other bill and other orders of business.

[MiniMe]

23. Yes, those things are often quick

I'm glad we caught it. GO PAT!

[malaise]

24. The shit has hit the fan

Run Rethugs run!!! Too late the rats are cornered.

Now what diversion can they come up with now.

[John Q. Citizen]

29. I'm hiding down in Paraguey;

I'm a desperate man

Send lawyers, guns, and money

The shit has hit the fan.


I was gamboling in fallujah

I took a little risk

Send lawyers, guns, and money,

Dad get me outta this.

[KansDem]

46. Bravo!!!

Will Bush open himself up to scrutiny when he orders a one-way ticket to Paraguay on Air Force One?

[bdamomma]

50. a new bin laden tape???

[Virginia Dare]

57. Ronco presents...

OBL's Greatest Hits! This is a totally remastered OBL like you've never heard him. All the fear, all the paranoia that made you hate him before is back, only better! Call now, operators are standing by!

[xultar]

21. People...They had to go by the letter of the law. Now they are moving.

[Virginia Dare]

36. Exactly, have you ever watched a lion hunt?

they only go after the ones they are pretty damned sure they can get. They'll lay there all night and wait if they have to.

[guitar man]

54. or a sniper

...they will sit in a tree or behind cover for days waiting for a clean shot...;)

[Virginia Dare]

56. As with any good sniper..

all it takes is one..:evilgrin:

[guitar man]

61. amen -nt

[IChing]

25. McConnell is now talking about the Southwick judicial nomination

I am really worried about recess appointments during the 'vacation'
The democrats have blocked this nomination..

[Le Taz Hot]

26. Score two for the Senate today!

Call for Special Prosecutor for Gonzo.
Subpoenas for Rove & Jennings.

YEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

(Are you watching, Nancy?)

[malaise]

27. Great, great news n/t

[loudsue]

28. Huh? The White House is still in contempt for the other subpoenas.

This is going to stir the pot to the boiling point. Rove is bush's sacred cow. "Thou shalt not mess with Rove" is commandment #1 to the republican party. Whooo-boy! Here come the big guns on both sides.

:kick:

[MiniMe]

31. We know he is going to claim executive priviledge

But this one is going to go to court. And this is the same premise that Clinton lost on when he tried to claim executive priviledge for some of his staff re: Monica. They had to testify.

Sorry to tie Clinton into this, just trying to relate that if they say Clinton did it, we can say, yes, and he lost in court and they had to testify. I am not trying to tie it in on the substance of the case, just the ruling on exec priv.

[L. Coyote]

30. A Sinking Ship, w/only the crow's nest (spy tower)above water now.

[Pachamama]

32. About time....although I'm sure Rove will just tear up the subpoena and ignore it...

Oh Gawd, I just look so forward to the day he is arrested and frogmarched....j

There couldn't be a more deserving person....other than Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld and Gonzo....

[ljm2002]

44. Hey don't forget Rice...

...she's definitely on my short list of people who should be frog marched.

[rodeodance]

33. and now the world knows (or those who are tuned in)

[MiniMe]

34. Due process takes time. The dems have actually done a lot in only 6 months

I know a lot of people are impatient at the speed of things, but they have to get their ducks in a row.

[Tatiana]

37. Folks, I think we officially have the enemy on the run. n/t

[blondeatlast]

38. Could this fianlly happen? Oooh, I do so want to see it!!!

[SIMPLYB1980]

41. You beat me to it. LoL!

[SIMPLYB1980]

40. Frog march his ass!

[radfringe]

42. any bets bush throws the cloak of executive priviledge over ROVE?

bush doesn't give a flying rat's ass whether or not it's legal or constitutional - he'll do it anyways

so the next question is - what is Congress prepared to do?

I say - don't be a weenie - impeach bush and cheeeney

[Poiuyt]

43. If Rove DOES testify, what will he say?

I'm guessing nothing. He won't remember a thing. Though I doubt he'll show up.

[HowHasItComeToThis]

45. Will Rove hang for his "let's make W a war time prez" for election war

SENDING SOLDIERS INTO HARMS WAY WITH NO REGARD FOR SAFETY?

[bdamomma]

47. Rove has been on a free ride for too long his a$$ needs to hauled in too.

another arrogant SOB. Now watch all the spin to begin, oh those big and bad Democrats, well these thugs are been ruining/running things long enough. Way too long.

[bdamomma]

48. sometimes I wish they (the Dems) would just say it, we are

embarking on a Dictatorship, and watch the outrage of us then, we need someone to say it, and let those SOB's (the repigs) deny it or say it's pathetic. I bet * would be glad that we have named him for what he is, and oh by the way, didn't he say it?


"If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Dec. 19, 2000

[bbgrunt]

49. wonderful! But now they're going on recess? This is the most dangerous time.

[bdamomma]

51. and the Dems have alot of work to be done

Harry Reid has already said it, there are many Amendments that need to be passed.

[OzarkDem]

53. They're just placating the grassroots Dems

If they were really serious about this, it would have been done by now.

[bigtree]

59. I knew it

It's all about you.

[OzarkDem]

52. All talk, no action

so when is Leahy going to move forward on this?

[bigtree]

60. he just took another step forward today

:shrug:

[Virginia Dare]

65. A subpoena is action, not talk..

what do you consider this, a step back? :shrug:

[DemBones DemBones]

55. Good news, if he actually does it and the weasels don't squirm out of appearing.

I'll wait until then to rejoice, having been disappointed so many times before. No offense to Leahy.

[spanone]

58. subpoena and rove.....two words that just go together....

[tjwash]

62. That must be the reason faux news is showing wall to wall Vick right now.

nt

[Vilis Veritas]

66. And how can this be?

Because Leahy is the Kwisatz Haderach...

Peace

[waldo_evans]

67. big fucking deal.

Rove? why aren't they investigating Bush and Cheney for God's sakes?

Why aren't they investigating REAL Bush crimes, like the reason he invaded Iraq? Or why he outed Valerie Plame? Or why he spied on Americans illegally? Or 911?

This is more horseshit.
