I wish Conyers and Pelosi well but … it’s not going to happen.

WASHINGTON — August 8, 2007 — FBI Director Robert Mueller today announced the establishment of a new Federal Bureau of Investigation program called “SCROD,” — Secret Commission Reporting on Democrats.”
According to Muller, “This special commission is the result of the Democratic Congress passing new FISA legislation which holds us accountable for absolutely nothing we may or may not do which may previsously have been deemed illegal.”
Mueller did not rule out the possibility the program could be enlarged to include not just Democrats but all Americans considered unpatriotic or disloyal to the Bush regime.
Mueller said the additional program — called “SCREWED” — Secret Commission Reporting an Everyone We Establish as Disloyal — will permit extensive warrantless phone taps, reading private emails, checking bank accounts for political donations to the wrong party, and detaining “…anyone we determine who might stand in the way of the God-fearing Bush Administration from retaining the power of the Almighty in 2008,” he added.
Meanwhile, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid announced that they are thinking of sending a “strongly-worded” letter to someone decrying the move. According to Pelosi, “We’ll monitor the situation for six months and then introduce legislation — of some sort.”
Quizzed by reporters as to the effect on the Democratic Party’s base, Reid stated, “We just want to do what is right for America and the Administration, pretty much giving them anything they want as long as we can get out of town for August.”
Sources at the White House reported seeing Karl Rove prancing around his office singing “I’m Just Wild About Harry…”

Thank you for trying to inject a voice of reason and facts into this board.

Wanna buy a bridge?

The Democratic party has been called Democrat longer then there has been a major neocon movement, besides respect isn’t my strong suit.

Anyway, to change the subject

African National Congress
Democratic Alliance
Inkatha Freedom Party
United Democratic Movement
Independent Democrats
African Christian Democratic Party
Freedom Front Plus
National Democratic Convention
Pan Africanist Congress
United Christian Democratic Party
Minority Front
Azanian Peoples Organisation
Other parties
SA Communist Party
New National Party

South Africa’s political parties. Note the lack of a Republican party.

Tells you something of how the world sees the two parties now doesn’t it?

Although I’ve been a staunch Democrat for many years (for lack of a better and electable alternative), I’m just waiting for the next phone call asking me to contribute money. I will advise the caller that I have nothing against them, but very clearly convey that I am no longer willing to financially contribute to the continued destruction of our country.

Although the rhetoric by the Dems and Repukes sounds different, the results seem to be the same. Why would this be? Both sides are owned by their large corporate benefactors and must follow a strict, narrowly prescribed agenda or risk having their allowance permanently terminated.

If there was a viable third party who could speak to the truth, financed only by individuals and not owned by corporate benefactors, the climate would most likely be ripe for such a party to achieve record gains in 2008.

We are in dire straights. We need informed, tactical leadership.

Cindy plucks at our heart strings . . .she also has shown poor judgment. We cannot afford poor judgment.

Barak would be best. Hillary would be better than Sheehan. Edwards might be our best hope of an electable candidate. With Obama as VP, we might be able to hold office for the next four terms. Get real.

organization just say no until they do what the base wants!

What, did they read it after it was approved? And had a moment of “oh my G*d” what did I do?

As a child and young adult and now a wise adult, my mother always said, read it before you put your signature on it! Don’t ask someone else to do the reading for you…You need to read it yourself!

Well, congress you will too be out of a job not because of votes but because of the chipping of the Constitution.

What will you do then! do what the rest of us have been screaming about and falling on deaf ears! You will join the rest of America in the food-housing line! See you there!

Let’s find out where their “taking holiday” publish it and then stop by for a friendly chat.
