[Solly Mack]

1. Thank you!!!!

[LSK]

2. Thanks. The witness has selective memory problems

Must be something in the White House water.

[Beelzebud]

7. (R) For Remember, (D) for Don't Remeber.

That is the formula. :D

[LSK]

26. I dont remember clearly Senator (D)

Yep!

[spooky3]

90. very good! :-)

[Beelzebud]

3. Seriously. Is it just me or does Sampson look like Rove's younger brother?

I mean this literally. The facial features look similar, like they're related.

[SharonRB]

14. He definitely does look like him

Cut from the same mold!

[spanone]

He looks like George Castanza in my book.

[WiseButAngrySara]

24. Bald Porkie the Piglets. ....n/t

[flyarm]

Schumer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! on deck!! n/t

[flyarm]

[helderheid]

19. And he has that hideous Utah accent

GOD, I hope I can help my kids avoid it!

[Hand]

45. Yes--He sounds a lot like Gonzo to me.

Kind of an unmatured little boy voice. Weird bunch over there.

[annabanana]

4. Schumer back

[Solly Mack]

" I didn't communicate with the AG by email..."

Yeah...and I don't piss and poop either

[Eurobabe]

5. Wow, Specter brought up them trying to skirt the Patriot Act provision

He must know he fucked up big time with that one.

[LSK]

6. Schumer up

:popcorn:

[annabanana]

8. I didn't prepare memos on this for the AG. . but I discussed it repeatedly

[npincus]

9. Sampson "didn't communicate w/AG by email"????

WTF? I find that very ODD. It should be easy to disprove.

[Solly Mack]

13. Those are the still missing emails no doubt

[Eurobabe]

20. Still on the gwb43. com server

[Solly Mack]

29. Yep

[caledesi]

64. Gonzo supposedly doesn't use email. Why? nt

[SharonRB]

103. No paper trail.

[caledesi]

117. I was being sarcastic. Of course you are right NO PAPERTRAIL. and

witnesses can say under oath they never sent emails to Gonzo.!

[Norquist Nemesis]

10. k/r!

[Cameron27]

11. K&R

[Eurobabe]

12. Schumer: Repeated discussions about this matter, KS: Yes

[WiseButAngrySara]

15. Thanks and KNR! ....n/t

[L. Coyote]

16. ISSUE SUMMARY: Catch up on this issue in the last 24 hours = a TON

Email-Gate FACTS: Felons, georgewbush.com, gwb43.com , et. al.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x523978

Exhausting just to summarize all the DU posts, articles, much more....

[Eurobabe]

31. yeah, you got that right!

[Eurobabe]

17. KS: I am not sure if AG saw the replacement plan that I drafted

Taking the sword for Gonzo?

[annabanana]

18. About the meeting... Was there any paper? Kyle: I don't think so

[annabanana]

21. Kyle remembers AG "speaking " at the meeting

[seafan]

22. We discussed this before Gonzales became AG. It was a process of

repeated discussions up until October, 06. (Sampson) paraphrased

[flyarm]

23. did the AG speak at the meeting ..yes!!

Schumer says that says alot

[flyarm]

34. is anyone else getting a test of the national broadcast over and over again ??

i am getting that loud beep noise over and over !!

and it is blocking hearing testimony!!

damn!!!!!!!!

fly

[Solly Mack]

25. Can you smell it? Smells good..smells tasty

roasted pig

[Beelzebud]

28. Big-time

[Eurobabe]

27. Schumer: That in itself says alot

sorry I missed what he was talking about? Not seeing documents?

[IChing]

36. True or False you little worm

he is not answering the question

[annabanana]

30. "I shared information with anyone who wanted it"

[HCE SuiGeneris]

32. Wonder how Cheney's blood pressure is doing?

[Beelzebud]

39. LOL

:evilgrin:

[EVDebs]

33. CIA and WH in an obstruction of justice

FBI probes Watergate prostitution allegations
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12634250 /

"It's all part of a growing ongoing investigation into corruption in defense and intelligence contracts, which already has sent former Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham to prison and, legal sources say, may threaten others in Congress and the CIA. "

...cobbling together a Patriot Act provision in order to achieve this end.

And looky here, Berenson is behind this and is now Sampson's attny. And a moneylaundering expert (John Dowd) is Goodling's attny.

Hmmmm.

[annabanana]

35. Therefor, Gonzales lied. .

[SaveAmerica]

37. Is C-Span breaking up for anyone else?

[Norquist Nemesis]

43. Yes!!!

:argh:

[Horse with no Name]

38. DAMMIT SENATOR I SHARED!!!!!!!

Wahh Wahh Wahh

[Norquist Nemesis]

40. ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stream getting overloaded

:argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh:

Happening for anyone else?

[Bukowski Fan]

48. try audio instead of video, worked for me

[Norquist Nemesis]

56. Thanks! *crossing fingers*

[Moochy]

54. i had to swtich to the real player stream

windows media choked ... I'm shocked!

[Inuca]

80. Try MSNBC

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17852146/ works perfectly and the video quality is MUCH better

[Eurobabe]

41. Schumer: if you shared info with McNulty & ?, then AG's statement is false

KS: I don't think it is accurate. Yes.

[IChing]

51. Where is the damn gavel?

[annabanana]

42. "gentleman from Texas is interrupting"

[annabanana]

47. "let him answer"

[caledesi]

107. That is one of the reasons that I think Doan and Sampson were

briefed before testimony. "I don't recall; don't remember." AND run out the clock by giving long extraneous answers. Notice the repblic from TX said "Why don't you let him answer?" Schumer is cool...."it's a yes or no answer." He know what time of day it is!

Ask these witnesses whether they were briefed? I will bet they were briefed by ROVE!

[quiet.american]

44. Schumer has him on the ropes! Yes, or no. Is Gonzales' statement false?

[rusty charly]

46. "it's not FAIR!"

[quiet.american]

50. Was that Sessions who was out of order? n/t

[LSK]

57. Cornym

[quiet.american]

65. Thanks. n/t

[TahitiNut]

61. Corny is a whining, corrupt, mentally incompetent reichtard.

He's disgusting. I wouldn't trust him to grill a hamburger.

[SaveAmerica]

63. Did he say that? My feed is frozen! WAAHHHH! CSPAN!!

[Eurobabe]

49. Who is that fucking idiot senator from TX, thati s interrupting? Cornyn?

White hair. Bitching about badgering the witness and not allowing him to finish his statements. WAAH!!

[Cobalt Violet]

55. They love to whine.

It's just a republican whine fest.

[quiet.american]

59. And the true problem was Sampson was answering a question that wasn't asked.

He was not addressing Schumer's question.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

Of course it's the lickspittle Cornyn.

[LSK]

52. now we have the Inhoff/Gore Q&A in reverse

Cornym objects! Leahy ignores.

[speedoo]

53. STFU, Cornyn.

Asswipe.

[annabanana]

58. he doesn't remember... "might" have mentioned names

[Beelzebud]

60. This is getting good. The Republican whiner just makes it better.

[speedoo]

72. Yeah, Cornyn has no clue.

nt

[Norquist Nemesis]

73. Lovely--Get ready for keywordmeister Cornyn

Let's see...witch hunt, fishing expedition, pleasure of the president, partisan advantage...

[Greybnk48]

75. I agree. It makes it look like he needs help

out of a jam. I think this guy's toast already.

[annabanana]

62. Cornyn up now. . (after having interrupted twice)

[Cameron27]

66. I don't remember, I don't remember, I don't remember

I can't really speak to what she said.

[IChing]

67. I don't remember I don't recall

How many times will he say that?

[seafan]

68. Re whether Sampson shared his info w/ deputy AG, etc

Shumer: Did you share info w/ Mr. McNulty and Mr. Michella (sp)?

S: (Not forthcoming, but finally says) "yes, I did".


Shumer: So then the AG's statement that you did not share your info with others in the dept is false, is it not?


Suddenly lots of crosstalk..... no clear answer by S..

[Eurobabe]

69. Cornyn: DOJ response mishandled, correct? Is that your testimony today?

[TahitiNut]

74. Notice that Sampson doesn't filibuster the soft balls Corny is tossing.

:puke:

[annabanana]

81. He's young

[quiet.american]

Good catch. n/t

[flyarm]

70. i don't remember..i don't remember..how do all these people with bad memory get

into these jobs??????????????

ok i am getting another test (#5 NOW)of national broadcast ...sheeeeeeeeeeet


fly

[SaveAmerica]

83. Are you watching it on TV, if so, what cable system do you have?

[MiniMe]

71. Good Lord, these republican political appointees sure have bad memories

[annabanana]

76. Did you have any contact with supervisors in the Criminal division

[annabanana]

78. Talked with Fisher, butnot about that

[IChing]

77. I don't remember I don't recall

[brentspeak]

79. This guy looks like a botched cloning attempt of Karl Rove

Rove's Mini-Me.

[Greybnk48]

86. you beat me--"mini me"

[Eurobabe]

82. Cornyn: do these US Attys. usually prosecute corruption cases?

[annabanana]

Kyle "appontees came and went - much turnover"

[aquart]

126. That's checkable.

[flyarm]

[Eurobabe]

96. that happened to me during PLAME in Philly, I was SO pissed!

It happened at least 4 times. :grr:

[Ghost in the Machine]

114. maybe it's a bullshit meter going off?

:shrug:

[Solly Mack]

85. I don't remember but I certainly didn't do that

Yeah...OK

[quiet.american]

89. :) n/t

[Solly Mack]

99. My mother would have laughed me out of the house for that

[annabanana]

87. Cornyn :Why didn't you invoke the 5th?

[quiet.american]

91. Because my lawyer said it would put me in a better light. n/t

[quiet.american]

98. Thanks, Cornyn, guess we can all go home. You've found no evidence? Great. n/t

[quiet.american]

104. Cornyn, you're on a committee. You are not Sampson's defense lawyer. n/t

[IChing]

93. Your stream must be ahead of mine

I just heard that and saw you wrote that.

[Cameron27]

88. Is there any reason to believe the replacement of a USA

would tend to impede an investigation into a crimminal matter...

Sampson: Not to my knowlege.

[Eurobabe]

92. Cornyn: Why haven't you invoked the 5th?

KS: It was important for me to tetify today.

Why did your colleague invoke the 5th amendment? KS: it's no small thing to meet with this committee

[IChing]

100. "There is no evidence as far as I see" Cornyn

I think it unfortunate you had to come here

[Cameron27]

94. Trying to justify "Monica's" decision to take the 5th

[SharonRB]

95. Cornyn thinks there's no evidence

Of course not -- he hasn't said anything. "I can't remember. I can't remember." The Lurita Doan defense!

[brentspeak]

97. Thank you for your bootlicking, Senator Godfather II (Cornyn)

[rusty charly]

108. yes. investigating this administration is so unfair!

[IChing]

111. Kohl up with a statement mentioning "loyal Bushies"

[Cameron27]

101. Just called the committee a political attack against the President

Leahy: Obviously if people don't commit perjury, they don't get prosecuted for perjury.

[annabanana]

102. If a person doesn't commit perjury, they don't get prosecuted with perjury

[Eurobabe]

105. Leahy: Explaining 5th amendment right

Cornyn arguing re: Sampson colleague.

Leahy: If they don't expect to commit perjury, then they don't invoke the 5th

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

106. We're supposed to believe this BS from "lickspittle" Cornyn???

God, these Republics make me :puke:.

[Eurobabe]

109. Kohl: questioning Loyal BUSHIES email

[quiet.american]

112. Good move. n/t

[annabanana]

110. Kohl up. . bringing up "loyalty to president" as the main job requirement

[flyarm]

121. i thought they were supposed to be loyal to the rule of law!! and the

american people!!

what bullshit!!

[annabanana]

113. "loyal bushies" language brought up to him..

Isn't tremendous damage done?

[IChing]

122. Now for the doublespeak on the defination of loyal Bushies

This was well rehearsed as you can tell

[annabanana]

115. need new thread

[bobthedrummer]

yep

[alcibiades_mystery]

119. So make one

[WiseButAngrySara]

116. "Loyal Bushies" GAG! New thread? ....n/t

[Cameron27]

118. What I meant by loyal bushies

was loyalty to their policies.

[quiet.american]

124. Some fast tap-dancing. n/t

[annabanana]

120. Now he claims that he thinks that "the law" is important.

I don't believe him

[Eurobabe]

123. Thread FIVE HERE

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=389

[SharonRB]

125. Why was Karl Rove involved when his function is purely political?

Good question, Kohl.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

127. Great question by Herb Kohl but of course this KKKarl clone

wouldn't or couldn't understand why the ordinary American citizen might be upset by this kind of political operation within the Justice Department?

These Puke asshats really don't have a clue. They still think they're in charge of everything....

[seafan]

128. "loyal Bushies"...

Sampson: 'Loyal Bushies' meant loyalty to their policies. There is a role they also have as political appointees to uphold this adm's policies...

(IMO, that statement is damning.)


(This is exactly what happened at the CIA. Good people were forced out, and the political appointees swooped in and swore unyielding fealty to the WH and its desires for *favorable intelligence*. And this political corruption forced us into Iraq illegally.)


These ba$tard$ have infiltrated every level of our government. This is catatrophic. We have not even BEGUN to uncover the extent of this GOP corruption.

[The empressof all]
