1. If only I could believe that this will really happen. n/t

2. Yeah, same here.

3. That would be great

I have confidence in Sen. Conyers to do the right thing and we all know what that is.

5. Sure, just as soon as he can somehow figure out how

to get those damn handcuffs off his own hands!

4. Who is the writer of the email, or was that the way you got it?

6. Certain Democratic

Representatives have been discreetly wearing small lapel pins in the shape of handcuffs.

9. Really? nt

12. Really.

My Democratic Congressman (if you PM me I'll name him for you) has shown that very lapel pin to Democrats at least two different times when I was present. Apparently it was something of a response to the lapel pin hammers that Republicans were wearing in reference to Tom Delay being known as "The Hammer".

7. Just about all we have received since

2006 is rhetoric.

10. Listen to the wind blow....

11. After watching his interview with Vets for Peace where he told those who were upset

to "take a pill or find some other way to cope" :eyes: I just see this as another "odd" statement from Conyers who is either muzzled or loony.

13. Someone needs to arrest Conyers

It just cannot be legal for the Congress to be enabling Bush this way. He has ignored the Constitution, committed war crime and they are just as guilty. Following orders is not a valid excuse. They are all criminals now.
