I wonder if Waxman will launch an investigation into his own party for this criminal activity from one of it’s biggest donors.

http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_6884611

“Hsu has contributed more than $600,000 in the past three years to political campaigns and did fundraising for candidates, including U.S. Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton, as well as U.S. Rep. Mark Udall, a candidate for a Senate seat from Colorado.

Those candidates have since given Hsu’s contributions to charities”

Could someone please explain why the candidates listed above accepted money from Hsu eventhough they CLAIMED not to know about his felony conviction in 1992 and are acting suprised about his “fugitive” status? Especially the Clinton campaign who warned in private about Hsu this past June, but just now she has decided to give the money she received from him away.

The Democratic majority is sufficient in the House to initiate impeachment proceedings, which in turn would force a lot of evidence against this corrupt and criminal administration out into the open. While itâ€™s not at all likely that the almost-equally divided Senate would ever return a guilty verdict against Chimpy or Deadeye, the evidence would still be available. At the very least, it should stop them from continuing their traitorous ways.

the dem party are pussies because they know if they impeach during a war they will lose big time in the next election- if you dont beleieve me, just see what dem frontrunners say about impeachment

When is Bush finally going to accept the fact that Iraq is NOT going to turn over their oil profits to the United States? Once that fact sinks in his pea brain he might be willing to bring our soldiers home.

The Republic of Stupidity sez:

As long as the Dem majority is as slim as it is in both houses, thereâ€™s simply no chance impeachment will go. Really.

The Democratic majority is sufficient in the House to initiate impeachment proceedings, which in turn would force a lot of evidence against this corrupt and criminal administration out into the open. While it’s not at all likely that the almost-equally divided Senate would ever return a guilty verdict against Chimpy or Deadeye, the evidence would still be available. At the very least, it should stop them from continuing their traitorous ways.

By not even trying to initiate impeachment proceedings…by declaring unilaterally that “impeachment is off the table”, Pelosi has demonstrated which side she stands on. By failing to attempt to check this runaway traitorous administration, she shows herself to be willingly complicit in their monstrous crimes.

Pelosi is well aware that our presnit is a liar. In this case, she appears to call him on it. Period. Now she will write letters.

Being awar that the president is lying and carrying on as if he were not, is just absurd. But that is what she is doing. Sound bites. They probably hugged after this.

I have little respect for this Pelosi woman. She is allowing a man who she knows is lying, to continue on the path to the destruction of America. Hey, but she might get elected again. Game playing folks. It is what they do best in the beltway.

#29 the number of troops is not being reduced because the president wants to begin drawing down our forces. The number of troops will be reduced because the JCOS said a long time ago that they would only be able to keep the additional troops in the field for 15 months or so. That would keep them there till late next spring early next summer regardless of what the president has to say.

But let me look at this from another angle. If the “surge” is working and drawing down the troops is a result of this success. I say why stop there? Why not keep the success going? Also isn’t announcing to our enemies a timetable for our leaving supposed to be a bad thing?

Jake…is the president #1 in your book of a$$wholes?

With Jewish and Muslim high holidays starting today (or last night, as it where, crazy Jewish days starting at night, I mean really…) I wonder why google has instead chosen to change the icon to celebrate Roald Dahl’s birthday.

boy am i confused…
in one story, and from other news, i read:

Russian President Vladimir Putin dissolved parliament on Wednesday and nominated a little known ally, Viktor Zubkov, to be Russia’s new prime minister.
http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/0,1518,505560,00.html

in a NYtimes article about the new prime minister’s nomination
there is no mention of a “dissolved parliament”…
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/13/world/europe/13cnd-russia.html?ref=world

also sounds as if putin may be thinking of NOT stepping down…

hmmm… hope dubby isn’t paying attention to any of that…

oops — sorry about that. My friends often tell me the same thing. I tend to be an information nerd, and it’s a pain in the neck (or head) to others. My apologies! :-)

Wilco: Every war is made only with economic and geostrategic goals. Religion is the flavor intended to carry the sheeple along with the war. In every war, everybody claims so kind of superiority:

In Iraq, US population generally claims to be more “civilized”, you can read almost every troll, including Exley, answer to that issue.

In Palestine, Israel claims to be more “democratic”, “peaceful” and yes… superior because they are the chosen ones.

Please watch a film made by a jewsih filmmaker named: Protocols of Zion.

Also, watch this film by a jewish film maker: ‘West Bank story’. Pretty good send up of some of the issues.
