		<description>[...] As ThinkProgress cites Dick Morris on FOX News, that if Mr. Cheney did in fact tell Libby that Wilson&#8217;s wife worked at the CIA and then &#8220;Libby lied to the grand jury about how he found out about it, saying that he got it from a reporter. Well, if that&#8217;s the case, the vice president knew that Libby was lying&#8230; so my question is, why didn&#8217;t the vice president say anything?&#8221; I know what you&#8217;re thinking and I am thinking it, too - &#8220;interesting, indeed.&#8221; [...]</description>

		<description>I want to see Bush and Cheeney removed from office NOW.

VOTETOIMPEACH.ORG

I was soooo wrong, and such an idiot for supporting a murdering administration.

I want to extend a personal apology to all on this blog.

I want to say those of you that thought I was

mighty aphroditie, Northeast Delima, Turk, Joe Sixpack and Jeff Gannon were

totally correct.

I am only one person, and I have tried to show that there are more than one person that support the
Bush administration.

I am paid by the administration, and i feel totally dirty and guilty.</description>

		<description>#85 go to wikipedia and look up Patrick Fitzgerald
It&#039;s an excellent source for just about everything.  It has links too.

While you&#039;re at it, look at &quot;operation northwoods&quot; it was authored in the 1960&#039;s by the Joint Cheifs of Staff (see also Lyman Lemnitzer major author of it that was a rightwing racist dismissed from army for being one). 

Operation Northwoods was a proposal to have a domestic terrorist attack and blame another country for it to justify military action.  Very interesting that it was rejected by McNamara but seems to have been fully used by dumbya in 2001.

Other interesting reading is Operation Mockingbird.  It is a plan to control the media so that they could control how Americans percieve reality.

Lemnitzer was involved in:  Operation Northwoods, Operation Mockingbird, Operation Ajax and the Bay of Pigs.  It is said that he was involved with Prescott Bush in operation paperclip.  That is the one where they helped get Nazi war criminals out of Germany so that they could start new lives in places like Argentina, South American, and even in the U.S.A.</description>

		<description>#80, With great regularity, the reichwingers who post here attack liberals with outrageous insults involving sexual habits -- sometimes, the liberals react.
BTW, (although it is off topic)it was pretty obnoxious that Cheney used his daughter when he needed her, but chose his party platform in the end.</description>

		<description>â€œThey say libby knows cheeney so well that he can â€œfinish his sentencesâ€â€

&quot;It seems that boyfriends can often do that for each other. Looks like lesbians arenâ€™t the only unconventional lifestyle in the Cheney family :)&quot;

Jesus H.Christ, these SOBs lie us into a war, condone and facilitate torure, bankrupt the country, plunder our environment, appoint inept and criminal assholes to important cabinet posts, and you want to attack Cheney&#039;s daughter for being lesbian? Just STFU, will ya? Use your damned brain for something other than sexual fantasies, OK?</description>

		<description>[...] It seems that Karl Rove and Bob Novak have a history, this is new&#8217;s to me, if true, then karl is still in hot water with Fitzgerald, and Dick Cheney is not far behind. Rove fired from Bush Sr&#8217;s &#8216;92 campaign over leak to Novak. Karl Rove was fired from the 1992 re-election campaign of Bush Sr. for allegedly leaking a negative story about Bush loyalist/fundraiser Robert Mosbacher to Novak. Novak&#8217;s piece described a meeting organized by then-Senator Phil Gramm at which Mosbacher was relieved of his duties as state campaign manager because &#8220;the president&#8217;s re-election effort in Texas has been a bust.&#8221; Rove was fired after Mosbacher fingered him as Novak&#8217;s source.

		<description>Cheney stepping down would be the first necessary step to the impeachment of Bush. Who would ever go after the President with Jabba the Hut waiting in the wings?</description>

		<description>You Can Kill, Just Don&#039;t Lie

The impeachment articles in the case of Richard Nixon charged him with lying about the bombing of Cambodia but did not charge him with war crimes for the actual bombing.  The bombing resulted in 600,000 dead and the destruction of much of the farmland in Cambodia driving the peasants into the open arms of the Khmer Rouge.

We are witnessing the same phenomenom today as the Fitzgerald enquiry has charged Libby with perjury and obstruction of justice.  He lied so he is a bad boy but not because he was a major player in all the decisions about Iraq which resulted in a multitude of war crimes.

The discourse about the wrongdoing of President Bush focuses on his lies about his reasons for going to war against Iraq but not about the horrendous war crimes for which he is ultimately responsible.  The polls, now showing that the people want him impeached, reveal that people are disgusted by the lying of President Bush but not by his war crimes.

All of this is a reflection of a political culture in the United States that supports aggression, intervention and militarism to protect American interests.  The voices of dissent are muffled by a press that supports the imperialistic rulers of the empire.  The so-called opposition party, the Democrats, is of the same mind and part of a consensus that was struck very early in the history of this imperialisic republic.  The explanation for the lack of critique of the President&#039;s defense and foreign policy is that Democratic presidents have embraced the same imperialistic policies.

With the media and the opposition on board, there is virtually no prospect that there will even be a discussion about war crimes. The danger in this vacuum of any real dissent is that Americans will not demand that their presidents respect international law and institutions.  Until that day, the world is not safe.

		<description>P&#039;d Off,

Just so you know, Fitz is supposed to only have spent around $800,000 so far, as compared to Kenny Starr&#039;s millions on investigating Clinton. Pretty fiscally responsible for a change, eh?</description>

		<description>&quot;Wilson canâ€™t show that he was damaged by anything Scooter Libby did or didnâ€™t say to the grand jury. He has no basis for a civil action under the IIPA or the Espionage Act. He canâ€™t even show that he suffered any harm (you need damages in a civil case) that wasnâ€™t caused by putting his own big foot in his own lying mouth. If his lawyers are smart, they will advise him to shut up and sit down. His 15 minutes of fame are over.&quot;

Above, you see how these lying slimey sons a bitches reward patriotism. Wilson&#039;s crime?? He went to Niger in service to his country, investigated questionable intelligence, and reported his findings honestly. 

But hey, you want to lick Bush&#039;s ass for him, lie to congress, help him get out of his TANG duties, or his jury obligations, or his drunk driving arrests, or the problems caused by his coccaine use, or hide the criminal malfeasance that brought down the WTC, hey, you get a job at FEMA, or a Supreme court appointment, or a diplomatic posting, or if you are really a HUGE lying asshole, you get the Medal of Freedom.

Ain&#039;t love grand?

BTW, after Fitz spends a few kwadrillion bucks prosecuting Libby, the smirking idiot monkey will simply pardon him as he slimes his way out of office. All we are going to be left with is the Gannon stains on the White House rugs, and the bubble gum wads stuck under Dubya&#039;s desk.</description>

		<description>Just think folks, the Libby trial and the continual probing by Fitzie will be going on in November 2006.

By this time Rove will be indicted, along with Cheney, and then what leg does the puke party stand on?

This thing will be too hot to handle by the pukes for months and months to come. I see the puke senators turning against the criminal ridden administration of King George in droves. In less than a year they all will be voting democratic.</description>

		<description>&quot;Guess what? Wilsonâ€™s lawyers will be using the info gleaned from Libbyâ€™s (as well as &#039;official A&#039;â€™s) upcoming trials as preliminary discovery. Areas that Fitz chose not to pursue will be targeted with probing and leading questions in the civil trial(s).&quot;

So, Joe Wilson has his own lawyers poised to go after, er, who, exactly, and on what grounds?  So what?  What&#039;s he going to do, sue because politics happens to be slightly rougher than a game of beanbag?
