“[L]awyers close to the investigation say there are signs that the 20-month-long inquiry could be wrapped up within weeks in a final flurry of negotiations and legal maneuvering,†Reuters reports.
#4 Appropos 1984 reference. What will the admin. do if the news is not in their favor?
Realistically, bargaining/maneuvering/negotiation will probably be the winner.
As much as I want it, I fear that the end of this treasonous affair is not going to make many of us happy.
Expect the Bushies to invent an innovative way – ala 1984 – to ease their discomfort.
I bet Patrick Fitzgerald will surprise you all!! This playing down of the investigation is a GOP preemptive effort to diffuse the s**t that will go down.
There will be a coup, one way or the other…coup d’etat, or coup de grace!!
Uh, this is no time to play the “blame game.” The economy’s in high gear. Iraq is about to ratify a new constitution. Bolton is calling the UN to account. Osama’s on the run. And New Orleans is on its way to a brave, new future.
Oh, and Clinton got a blow-job, and Hillary worships Beelzebub.
All of this talk of coups makes me want to remind everyone that if we don’t have electronic voting machines this isn’t an issue either in the midterm elections or the next presidential elections. This is the time for democratic representatives to FORCE the issue of voting machine rigging. Fix that, and most of the other issues will fix themselves in a few years.
Ah, great! All the good s**t will come down while I’m away on business. In South Asia.
Well, I’ll have to continue to read the BBC and Times of India to get the straight poop. Here’s to hoping/wishing/praying that the Repugs are exposed for the bastards we know they.
Jesus, you’re going back to india! I have a book that talks about your first time there ;) Too bad these right wing guys didn’t get that you were a pascifist hippie that preferred to die the death of a pascifist rather than go to war. Even when his people were a conquered and oppressed people… Those lessons would help christians a lot if they were actually ‘christian enough’ to hear them. Unfortunately they are the romans now, they just ‘call’ themselves christians…
Ryan, have you heard any of the really wild conspiracy theories, usually pushed by right wing “christians” claiming that a UN one world government is going to persecute them and cause Armageddon.
Some of their websites include comments about the massive UN/Chinese army massing just over the border in Mexico, ready to move in and take over.
Susan #19: what I ment was that without Rove and Cheney to do Junior’s job, he would be totally paralized—unable to even ride his bike with the training wheels.
I doubt very much if the grand jury indicts anyone. You see the jury is from a district that is all pukes. Not a dem or liberal in sight. This is done on purpose so that anyone the government puts in front of the jury is guilty when he walks in the door, EXCEPT FOR ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS.
No, no grand jury indictment, however, Fitz has another way to go, if he chooses to do so. He can bring charges against whomever in the federal court.
Have a nice trip Jesus! We will all be interested in seeing how it pans out. We may be surprised and actually get some truth for a change.
Granted the news has been exciting lately, so no wonder it’s not on the front page…
Troops massing in Mexico? Besides the ones who already came over the border (unarmed) to help with Katrina? Muchas gracias by the way, too bad our own government couldn’t work as quickly.
Hey, Pablo – Are you in DF? We go there a lot to visit la familia de mi espozo.
No surprise there, i.e., no accountability.
September 8th, 2005 at 7:37 pmNever is, never will be with these guys.
Can they keep Judy in jail anyway…..please?
NO PLEA BARGAINS
September 8th, 2005 at 7:44 pmPlame leak? Oh, yeah. I was so wrapped up in Katrina I forgot about that. By the way, are we still at war?
September 8th, 2005 at 7:45 pmYeah, but we are at war with Eurasia now
September 8th, 2005 at 7:48 pmand always have been.
Finally! Scott McClellan will be able to comment on something!
September 8th, 2005 at 8:02 pmNo he won’t. It will be time to put
September 8th, 2005 at 8:03 pmthe past behind us and look forward
to the next disaster.
Get your Rove Scandal Documents here.
September 8th, 2005 at 8:13 pmKarl Rove and Cheney need to be fired. They need to be held accountable for their actions.
September 8th, 2005 at 8:37 pmYes Mary, but that would have to be in
September 8th, 2005 at 8:38 pmthe “reality based” world…. we don’t
live there anymore.
Not going to happen, Mary. There is no accountability in this administration. Besides, if Bush fired Rove and Cheney, who would run the government?

Do you think we could stage a “coup?”
September 8th, 2005 at 8:47 pmDon’t know. Did not work out so great
September 8th, 2005 at 8:54 pmfor Winston.
Or Camel either
September 8th, 2005 at 9:01 pmHer name was Julia, NOT Camel! ;^)

September 8th, 2005 at 9:55 pmPOOR ROVE CANT COMMENT INVESTIGATION GOING ON
September 8th, 2005 at 10:16 pmI have confidence that the grand jury will hand down indictments.
The dirty word republican is going to be obsolete very soon.
votetoimpeach.org
September 8th, 2005 at 10:18 pm#10 Hank, when we take Bushie and Cheney out of office we will have an interim government until an election can be held.
It worked in Iraq and it will work here. Dont continue to give the neocons an out. We will prevail.
September 8th, 2005 at 10:21 pmUh, this is no time to play the “blame game.” The economy’s in high gear. Iraq is about to ratify a new constitution. Bolton is calling the UN to account. Osama’s on the run. And New Orleans is on its way to a brave, new future.

Did I miss anything?
September 8th, 2005 at 10:24 pmWhat’s with “negotiations”??? Doesn’t sound good.
