Please, talk about selective memories. You people are a prime example of “selective memory.”

Thing kind of thing went on during the Clinton administration, and every other administration that I can remember where there were ANY type of investigations and congressional hearings ON ANY MATTER. The “I can’t recall” syndrome is pervasive, ON BOTH SIDE OF THE AISLE.

Get over yourselves.

The only thing that she didn’t lie about was the cookies on the table. This woman is a disgrace.

She keeps saying: “Honestly”.

I don’t think that word means what she thinks it means.

They might as well put Dubya on the stand and get it over with. He can’t remember anything, but has a good excuse, because he is drug and alchohol impaired.

I really do think that we need people in positions of power who have the ability to remember what they have done and what they have said. If she can’t remember any of that, it sounds like she’s in pre-alzheimers.

Why do the people asking her these questions allow her to get away with “I don’t recollect”, “I don’t remember”. That’s better than pleading the 5th. Just say you don’t remember anything. You won’t be incriminating yourself and you won’t have to plead the 5th.

Does this mean that liars eat a lot of cookies? Oh dear… what will I tell all those Girl Scouts?

What we saw was merely the governmental version of this…. I think that the committee let her off rather lightly. I would dearly like her to be sent a subpoena, just so we can have a repeat performance that the MSM might pay more attention to.

Never mind whether she remembers the presentation or not. She has already admitted to being present.

So isn’t the next question, “As top executive, wasn’t it YOUR duty, in accordance with the Hatch Act, to immediately stop a partisan political presentation during work hours at the GSA?”

“And can you explain to this committee exactly WHY you did not do so?”

This was the response — one day later — from sending a “congratulatory” email to “l.doan@gwb43.com” for her insightful testimony.

Now I’m not sure if this means anything, but usually if the addressee isn’t at that domain, the message is of the form “not found.” In this case, it seems as though it was found, and repeatedly forwarded around between gwb43.com and the rnchq.org domains.

Most disturbing, though not surprising, is the language of the presentation. Rather than just saying “Targeted seats” or “Seat we think are vulnerable”, the Republican machine chooses to use phrases such as “Run over” or “Anvil drop on head” (with graphics to boot.)

I think someone in Congress should point this out.

I am sick and effing tired of the Bush cartel using minorities and women to sh*t on the American people, American institutions, and the Constitution. Lurita Doan, like Clarence Thomas, Armstrong Williams, Colin Powell, Condi Rice, and Alberto Gonzales before her, was once an intelligent, rational, sapient being. She attached herself to the Republican idiot-ology and now she appears to be a simple-minded, inane, blathering nimcompoop! I just watched the entire hearing on C-Span2, and now I need that pink medicine! Lurita Doan made me sick to my stomach!

After giving the GOP $200,000, this lying heifer dares to pretend she doesn’t remember a meeting with a representative from the White House! Are you kidding me? A meeting that happened two months ago? I worked on Capitol Hill 20 years ago, and I still remember -quite vividly! – conversations I had with several of my political idols ( John Lewis, Ron Dellums, et al), so I have NO doubt that this female Pinocchio knows good and well that she violated the Hatch Act.

I was angered by the casual insolence she displayed toward members of congress. “You guys” “y’all” “you’re entitled to your opinion, and I’m entitled to mine” “you’re mischaracterizing” are just a few of the maddening phrases that revealed the contempt she harbors for Congress, the people’s elected representatives (her employer). The Republican committee members were no better. Tom Davis should stop all that winking and laughing because the government’s business is very serious! And don’t get me started talking about Dan Burton, who had the unmitigated gall to brag about the number of subpeonas he issued to the Clinton administration, which if memory serves, he failed to find any illegalities, despite his blatantly partisan efforts. That’s why I’m sick and effing tired!

Oh, and ran a computer surveillance company before her current job.
Not someone with a bad memory, I would think.
