[...] Think Progress Â» U.S. Attorneyâ€™s firing may be linked to CIA probe. Recently fired US Atty Carol Lam indicated on 5/10/06 that she was going to get a search warrant for the premises of “Dusty” Foggo, #2 man at the CIA under Porter Goss, who had recently resigned, in connection with the Cunningham investigation.

I suspect that Duke, Jerry and Dusty are just the tip of this corrupt iceberg. There were an awful lot of details when the Duke/Hookergate story first came out. It seems that a lot of well connected “military contractors” made tens of millions of dollars for essentially doing nothing. I got the impression at the time that this was the heart of a GOP operation to funnel tax dollars back into Republican campaign coffers.

Was Alberto’s sister George’s connection? Might explain the rabid loyalty both directions.

Hold on. Are we judging Alberto Gonzales, or his family? Some of my relatives are diehard Republics.

Wasn’t it Jake who was saying that when Clinton fire the 93 US Attn. no one made a big deal or said anything about it. Opps! Wrong again!

Gonzalez = “Enemy Combatant” to the US Constitution, and should therefore be afforded ALL of the same “Priviliges” that he proscribed for those so designated…

…like torture, and trial by military tribunal.

So, any guesses as to who the next AG nominee will be? This should be tough for the White House. They can’t pick another ‘fixer’ like Gonzales. He/she couldn’t make it through the confirmation hearings. It can’t really be anyone who’s been chummy with people who are in the White House now. It can’t be a Democrat, because that would open them up to all of the investigations they’re trying to block. I’m guessing it would have to be someone from the Bush I or Reagan administrations that isn’t remembered for any bold partisan maneuvers. Maybe Richard Thornburgh? Or maybe some loyal Republican U.S. Attorney that nobody’s heard of and isn’t somehow tied to the rest of the USAs in the firing scandal.

Liberty: Thanks so much for the info. Everyone needs to know this. We do know that this election was stolen now as we also know that the “fix” was masterminded by Diebold, Blackwell, and BushCo in 2004. The whistleblowers have been indicted already on 04. What we need to know is how much Jeb was involved in 2000 now since he’s make noises about a campaign. And, if Bush threatened Gore and his family, that also needs to be investigated but it would appear that the only individual who can bring this out in the open would be Al Gore. Will he pursue it?

CNL lost it’s verve when it started posting music threads. It is what it is. You either censor or you don’t. He does.
CNL is good for video only. I do not post there like I do at other blogs. Not seriously anyway. He knows he has a watered down product.

I can understand the concept of censoring profanity and threatening posts; however, I do not believe that it is within the purview of the blog to censor political controversies which, he, in his infinite wisdom, has decided are taboo. In general, it may be a decent blog but, specifically, the owner plays “god” way too much for most people’s liking. Speaking here, of course, about crooks and liars blog.

Because of the site owner’s personal preferences and censoring those he doesn’t like, his blog is suffering and has become increasingly unpopular. It’s a case of trying to have it both ways – and people simply will not tolerate the hypocrisy.

Long ago that is needed to give a solution to all the failures created by the administration. We see newspaper all these failures and nobody makes nothing to solve these problems. The corruption must be something sanctionable and to punish to which the comet .

#52 I couldn’t agree with you more regarding C & L. They solicit input and then the BMOC censors it all and becomes “the decider” about what he will allow to be printed. Hypocritical at best;outright censorship at worst. Fraudulent claims for sure.

Let the obstruction of justice “avalanche” begin! Let’s get it all over with so this country can move forward which is impossible with all that we have obstructing it presently. No doubt now that Bush et al is at the “core” of this level of obstruction of justice. The american people want their Congress to take action “now” to bring a halt to this insane civil war and to bring these criminal officials in the highest places of this government to the justice they so deserve.

Thanks to those who responded to my earlier points. I say participate in the process because I have “heard” supposed Dems, Libs, progs etc become impatient in the process and are threatening not to vote anymore.

Now I really believe most of these people are GOP shills posting on such sites about plotics and even seemingly politically unimportant entertainment sites about TV shows where plotics may come up a few times a year, trying to convince people on board to drop out with voting cause it don’t matter.

Reality IS th Dem majority is razor thin and try as they might they will not be able to FORCE these repugs into backing them. But like a snowball, it will get bigger and public sentiment will see the reality. Keep digging.

Beware of spinmeisters who will say the dems are backing off because they are not. They will have to enter into compromises when enough momentum is gathered. But please keep the heat on Gonzales. Keep the insulated Bush, Chene and Rove’s tits in a ringer.

These arseholes are the worst kind of scum. And don’t think they are stopping on their evil plans cause they are not. Their only option is to obstruct until their are booted out of the WH. Keep their crimes on the cover page of every newspaper, blog, messageboard, etc. Never let the American people forget the type of “dignity” they returned to the WH so they will cast their votes in the opposite direction.

These guys make me sick!!!

CNL is an infamous censor. Relax dude. It is still the responsibility of the media to check governments, even one’s they like.

funny how a Website that calls itself CROOKS AND LIARS can have an editorial policy that CENSORS AND BANS talk about CROOKS AND LIARS.

Sure – its a private blog – BUT THOSE THAT HIDE THE CRIMINALITY HAVE NO BUSINESS BEING THE ARBITRATOR OF “WHO IS A CROOK AND A LIAR!”

Go to YOUTUBE to watch videos and post comments on blogs like this – CROOKS AND LIARS is just part of the cover-up and con!
