		<description>What a bunch of spin.  How about the REAL story now:  The hearing was OVER, Dye completed what he was ASKED to do.  Then Specter asked him to stay another hour &quot;JUST IN CASE&quot; any of the SEnators who were coming and going (Because it wasn&#039;t important enough to get there on time, of course) had additional questions.  Dye said he came for what he was supposed to, and then left.</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t give Dye credit for arrogance. Here&#039;s the scoop, direct from the factory. Dye didn&#039;t know how to answer the questions, so he ran and hid. His own staff didn&#039;t prepare him and won&#039;t lift a finger to help him out. Did you notice those minions that he had with him?  Edward Clair is the top attorney, and Robert Friend is the senior career person at MSHA. Clair only answered the question that was put directly to him, and Friend wouldn&#039;t say shit if he had a mouthful of it. So Dye is up there with no information and no lifeline, being screwed in public by his own inner circle.</description>

		<description>Does anybody know if Dave Dye&#039;s wife, (Federal Maritime Commissioner Rebecca Dye), represents the Maritime Commission with the same grace, panache, and avante garde realism as her husband?  Probably not, since we haven&#039;t been reading about a steady stream of ship disasters.

Gotta go -- I have a raging fire to tend to somewhere in the Rockies.</description>

		<description>Do you know their excuse for leaving the hearing?  They said they had to attend to the very serious matter of a coal mine fire in Colorado.  That so called urgent matter has been burning since November.  I bet they haven&#039;t done a damn thing about it until now when they were using it as a convenient excuse.  This country is truly screwed and blued.</description>

		<description>Dye knows that Specter is voting for Alito, who will make Specter&#039;s Senate optional, and Dye&#039;s boss, Bush, the emperor. Why shouldn&#039;t Dye treat Specter with contempt? Specter better get used to it.</description>

You don&#039;t suppose that the fact that it was the United Mineworkers turn to speak had anything to do with David Dye slinking out of the room like a thief in the night, do you?</description>

		<description>That&#039;s right Sen. Specter, &quot;take appropriate note of it.&quot; 

Then file it away under, &quot;Make Voters Forget&quot;, which should be a very big file by now.

Amazing how the Rethugs can look outraged and look like they are doing something when they&#039;re not.

On the other hand, when are Americans going to notice the Rethugs stealing our prosperity, our future and our freedom?</description>

		<description>Thanks #66. This is THE issue. Most American voters are oblivious to the importance of these Bushist crimes. They literally don&#039;t see any need to act. Dumbed down, delusional Xian Fundie, American Idol watching, missing white woman drooling herd of sheep that just wants to be told they are safe and daddy is protecting them.

Worse still, not one of the ReThuglicans I know who voted for Bush wishes they had voted for Kerry, even knowing what they know now about these Fascists who have destroyed EVERYTHING they have touched. Really, think about it, how many Bush voters do you know wish they had voted for Kerry?

Not only do we need a new crop of politicians who truly represent the people&#039;s interests, but we also have to wait for a new generation of Americans (a majority) who actually give a s--- about their rights and our nation. Another 10-20 years I suspect before the ever worsening situation forces these future Patriots to take to the streets in sufficient numbers.

Until then, our crisis will get much worse. Dem&#039;s, liberals, Independents and other Progressives will continue to be &quot;shocked&quot; with each new outrage, corporate scandal and electronic voting machine ReThuglican election victory.</description>

		<description>And you are a moron I-RIGHT-I.

We do care. We are tired of Bush cutting federal spending on safety. I hope somebody something happens to you and/or somebody you know that requires federal assistance and you don&#039;t get it. That is the only way you will wake. Or maybe you never will.

But, you are still a moron. You and all of your friends on the Filthy Right.</description>

		<description>David,

He had nothing to say so he just did a self-parody. He canâ€™t bring himself to admit heâ€™s actually in agreement with us and the rest of the country. He would lose his troll license. 

Comment by G. Gordon Giddy

I said exactly what I wanted to say, that most of these dog and pony shows are for the camera and the camera only. I hold no illusions that the people who try and make political hay out dead men&#039;s bodies actually care any more about the dead men and how and why they died than you do. Any excuse to Bush bash is taken by the Filthy Left and the lower the blow the better. You are not fooling anyone.</description>

		<description>Maybe now those W. Virginians will vote their interests instead of their &#039;good &#039;ol boy&#039;, good &#039;ol days wistfulness...

Unionization could go a long way to cleaning up some of those dangerous conditions...

But you southern &#039;pull yourselves up by ur bootstrappers&quot; don&#039;t believe in collective bargaining, only selfish divisiveness...</description>

		<description>Here they come to save the day!!! Too bad the day is dead by the time they manage to &quot;spring&quot; into action. I am beginning to sense a pattern here.... Why do people have to die BEFORE Bush&amp;Co. do their damn jobs? Is it some sick science project? I know what happens when you pour salt on a slug. And we&#039;re supposed to believe that they only want to keep us safe? If this is the best they can do then we are all in danger, not from terrorists, but from these imbeciles. I want someone to save me from THEM!!! Of course Mr. Saftey had to jet...  he&#039;s got alot of butts that need covering. He had better run...Hey, God?... you are taking notes, aren&#039;t you?</description>
