1. Yeah... I Noticed That Too, Should Be A Fun Week !!!

Can't wait for Sampson's testimony on Thursday.

:popcorn:

2. Cool. I would have bet $$ ANS would have been mentioned. Nice to

see that's not a high priority, at least on the internets.

[ripken08]

5. ANS is not a pol story

maybe in the regular news section she is front page.

[babylonsister]

6. Gee, ya think? She is all the rage on MSNBC TV, regardless of what

else is going on politically or otherwise, which is why I mentioned that story.
And welcome to DU!

3. Gonzalez F*%*d himself....he stood in front of a National audience

and claimed he wasn't aware of it. But now that I think about it common sense would dictate that he would have to give a signature to approve of either the firings or submissions of resignations.

I heard somewhere the other day that Gonzalez has always been an average lawyer.

An average lawyer in a below average Administration....no surprise.

Yes this will be an interesting week. That is unless * can figure out a way to bomb Iran as a method of distraction.

7. Unfortunately, all the crazy bastard has to do . . .

. . . is pull the trigger.

I wonder now, if they'll even bother with a Tonkin-like incident.

Scary as hell, because the Repukes need a distraction now, right now, more than ever.

4. not there, but Tweety had these guests on his horrible Sunday show:

jerk from Time

Norah OD

some young twit from the NYT

GLoria Borger

they ALL agreed that the Dems were just going after Rove for political reasons, JUST Because they COULD, and that the public DIDNT CARE about this story!!!!

I was SO fricking infuriated by this exchange

NOT ONE WORD about the insertion of the nomination w/o consent clause. not one word about how they LIED their asses off regarding the polticization of the firings. NOT ONE WORD about the redactions, the eigtheen day gap, the mysterious use of the Non-governmental ISP, etc

that show is usually BAD, but today was, BY FAR, the very worst it's ever been.

amazing

8. He should just go over to Fox and put his brownshirt on....

As far as I am concerned he and Fox news are collaborators against the Constitution and America. They actively engaged in Propoganda and attacks on the Constitution...

You don't have to agree with me...but that is how serious this has gotten....

[ripken08]

9. And I dont agree with you

I am at odds with DU when it comes to Chris Matthews. Billo wouldnt allow Fox News to hire Chris Matthews, because Billo thinks he is as liberal as they come.

[MadMaddie]

11. First things first...

Welcome to DU!

Secondly, this is the same Chris Mathews that watched * walk across the carrier and talk about how manly he looked. (Right, same Chris Mathews)

The same Chris Mathews that has been a cheerleader of the last 6 years of a Rebublican Congress. Afraid to ask real questions when they counted.

I watched the show today and listend to him and his guests talk about how the Democrats were trying to get even with Rove.

I will agree as of late he has had moments of clarity but that still does not make up for the last 6 years.

Just sayin....

[CrazyOrangeCat]

12. Well, at least Ripken figured out spell-check . . . .

. . . better than the average Freep.

Tombstone looks just the same, though. ;)

10. The last item is a gem. Just ask Rumsfeld. n/t
