Ms Beasley is going down. But she won’t be lonely.
April 5th, 2007 at 3:59 pmNow the President can’t fire those investigators or the U.S. Attorney for D.C.!! Says so right in the Constitution.
April 5th, 2007 at 3:59 pmMake sure there are cookies on the table, please.
April 5th, 2007 at 3:59 pmNot just ANY “White House political aide” either ; )
April 5th, 2007 at 4:00 pmThis is what I’m talking about! Wasting money for someone who forgot a detail or two. What’s the big F’n Deal?
April 5th, 2007 at 4:04 pmYeah, really Doan, do your patriotic duty and down a couple bottles of your famous pills.
April 5th, 2007 at 4:10 pmdoan is going down.
New bush administration vodka ad:
Absolut Corruption.
April 5th, 2007 at 4:12 pmAs with Alberto Gonzales, expect the GOP and its amen corner to try to protect Doan with the new “Diversity Defense.”
April 5th, 2007 at 4:13 pmThey must have taken her fingerprints off the water glass.
Maybe KKKarl can ’splain what the powerpoint was intended to do.
Better yet, maybe he could rap on Insannity & Combs tonight.
April 5th, 2007 at 4:19 pmWhy not just re-name our country the “United States of the Republican Party.” Party over country is what Ms. Doan and the rest of the NeoCons have proven their mantra is. We might as well be living in circa 1930s Germany…

This is by far the most ‘forgetful’ buch of people that ever lived. It’ just incredibly insulting at this point for everyone to have forgotten so much in such a short time span. It’s bullshit is what it is and I’m sick of it, and sick of apologists like you who want our country to keep heading on down the road to absolute dictatorship.
April 5th, 2007 at 4:25 pmLurita, Lurita….yes, you’ve become a ‘target’, but only because you lied and broke the law.
Oversight is so refreshing.

Repubs spent $6 or 7 mil investigating the reason why the Clintons let a few people in their own Whitehouse travel office go. They spent over $10 million investigating why two file boxes were mistakenly put into a closet instead of being moved across the street to another storage facility. Kenneth Starr spent $70 million investigating “Whitewater,” a 20-year old land deal in which the Clintons LOST $250K.
At least in this case, the investigation is about someone breaking a law. It’s called the Hatch Act. It’s federal law.
April 5th, 2007 at 4:47 pmGo easy on him BlueDog…
He has selective amnesia like she did at her hearing!
You remember that, don’t you Redneck?
Hahahahahahahahahaha…what a jack*ss
April 5th, 2007 at 4:54 pmIf she felt “paranoid” before, imagine her now!
LIARS and Criminals eventually ALL fall!
April 5th, 2007 at 4:59 pmLurita, YOU CAN’T CLAIM INSANITY AS A DEFENSE—NO CRAZY PERSON COULD HAVE WOVEN SO MANY BASKETS AS YOU DID SO SKILLFULLY!!!!! AND IN YOUR PADDED CELL YET!!!!!

So, you’re saying you have absolutely no idea what this is about.
April 5th, 2007 at 5:19 pmGood! Let’s see how arrogant she gets when she’s in front of a judge.
April 5th, 2007 at 5:20 pmWhen the FBI knocks on her door asking for Lurita Doan, will she remember her name? BTW, what the hell kind of name is “Lurita” — sounds like one of those redneck names that little redneck girls get when they try feminize pappy’s name — like “Charlene,” “Earlene,” “Carlene” — “Lurita, honey, put down your banjo and come to suppah.”
April 5th, 2007 at 5:33 pmre 19
that’s a good question, ask rednosedredneck. It’s probably his mother/aunt’’s name.
April 5th, 2007 at 5:55 pmIt’s “groanin’ time” now for Doan. Wasn’t there once some sort of little pill called “Doan’s Pills”??
April 5th, 2007 at 10:59 pmLurid Lurita will be her new moniker! Wonder what else she’s been up to?
April 5th, 2007 at 11:00 pmMay I be so rude as to point out, ahem, that claiming “I don’t remember” over and over and over on the stand is a time honored gambit of organized crime, which the Bush Admin is resembling more and more w/ each passing fiasco. Isn’t it time to just RICO the whole damned lot of them?
April 5th, 2007 at 11:32 pmBushiva’s “pardon list”…
…just got longer…
April 6th, 2007 at 3:22 amShit happens when ya appoint another incompetent for a $200K political contribution. And she managed to all this in only 8 short months.
April 6th, 2007 at 12:01 pmWhat I don’t get is she “may have” violated the Hatch Act.
Seems like a no brainer to me.
She did and one of Karl’s puppies, and every other Federal agency with had the presentation are guilty.
No maybe about it!!!
April 6th, 2007 at 2:30 pmHow doe’s this work well let me help you .You go to jail this going up before congress and saying f… you is over for all bush boot lickers
