Cheney

The approval of Mukasey’s appointment was another act of doubling down by the Democrats in Congress. There were warning signs about Mukasey – but the Dems approved the appointment because they were saving the real battle for November.

Well there just isn’t a lot going on up there in their asses with their heads.

They aren’t paying attention

I can almost at this point garuantee that the sabre rattling will spill over into a declaration of war some time around Fall, at which point the administration will insist that the only group capable of dealing with the (manufactured) threat are, naturally, the GOP.

Anyone not voting for McCain will be branded a terrorist sympathizer, and the U.S. will wind up with either McCain at the helm or a seriously handicapped democrat, because, face it, when the xenophobic part of the average North American’s conscience is stimulated, it tends to come out in full force and steamroll any chance of cooler heads (diplomacy) prevailing.

I do hope I’m just being wildly cynical, though.

tiger-I agree totally, but if our elected reps in D.C. won’t move to impeach over a treasonous act such as outing a CIA operative, this latest revelation will wind up being swept aside by the corporate media for more up-to-the-minute report on "American Idol". Sad, isn’t it?-watching what once was considered the greatest country on the face of the planet; sink to the depth of a local banana republic. Hey cheer up, can’t wait til next weeks revelation of corruption within this Bush Cabal reaches the light of day!!!!!!

I think we should waterboard all the "principals" until they confess.
