Not sure, but I do know that this post is good news for Republicans!

“We learn from experience that men never learn anything from experience.”
You have to want to see the truth. Most in Washington don’t. They have chosen their blindness.
I just read the roll call of the House FISA vote and realized Patrick Murphy voted for it. That pissed me off. I sent an email to the contact address on his campaign website and told him no money, time, or blogging from me until he recognizes the error of his ways…and just to recall, I did a hell of a lot of volunteering and blogging in support of Patrick’s effort in 2006.
The Philly crew should rent a bus and take a trip down to DC and have a little intervention with our good friend.
…or you could invite him to DL one of these days.
I’m sure “Ian” or whoever answered the phone wrote me off as a crank.
I would love to see the look on his face when cornered by a dozen angry Philly progressives.
The Washington Independent says follow the money.
Telecom Donations Tied to FISA Vote. Supporters of the Spying Bill Received Twice the Contributions as Those Against It
30 pieces of silver to loot the Constitution?
The traitors should be lined up against a wall and shot.
Ok, I’m not going to answer that but only point out that this book that’s being promoted here in the left and right sidebar(The Prosectuion of George W. Bush For Murder) is just looking more and more appealing. Granted, this Bill doesn’t talk about murder but only about getting away with murder and a dash of ‘lagniappe’..
Thanks for this link, I’ll print it out so I can read it in full (long docs are a pain to read online) when the kiddies are in bed..

With all that has been laid out on this, if this Congress cannot pull together the wherewithall to do what is right, how can they ask us to assume they will find the wherewithall to stop Bush from striking Iran?
that’s a trick question…he’s already got all he needs w/ the aumf, kyl-LIEberman, and, in all liklihood, the demoRAT controlled congress will further acquiesce with the iran war resolution…coming soon to a kabuki near you.
l don’t think sternly worded letters are going to be much of a deterrent after all that.
after all, Bush said that Iran, Iraq, and North Korea constituted the “axis of evil”, and now that iraq’s peacified, and n. korea is our new bff, that leaves iran to deal with…can’t have any loose strings, eh…gotta think in terms of that legacy thing.
Schumer opposes immunity. Will he oppose cloture?
I trust Schumer about as far as I can throw him….and with my bad knee I shouldn’t be throwing anybody.
Everything except the vote for John Roberts
