Is it just me? If I ask someone a question, and they begin to answer it, does it make sense for me to keep interrupting them and tell them not to answer? Or is Henry Waxman just that much of a doofus?…

Nostrilitus.

Nostrildumbass.

Matt Drudge wraps up one week and starts another every Sunday night at 9:30. Don’t miss another minute of The Drudge Report…….

And we cannot have that, can we?

Pres Bush and AG Gonzalez had better grow a “pair” and start fightening back and stop acting like beaten men. If they cannot grow a “pair”…THEN THEY SHOULD BORROW SOME FROM MICHELLE!

The Bush Administration is becoming the Bush AdminiCASTRATION.

His show-trials never lead to action. They are an end unto themselves.

Thanks for coming through Gianni! We have elected and are PAYING these idiots to represent us and they apparently have other things to do on our dime. How is it that a Gathering of Eagles is needed to speak our mind while those we’ve sent to Washington for that very purpose are AWOL? My rep’s in SC and every one of these sluggards is hearing from me.

Why hasn’t anyone mentioned that the Director of the CIA considered Plame covert?

That one thing has kinda thrown a spanner into this whole thing for me.

What the Director of the CIA thinks isn’t relevant to the law. Covert status has a specific meaning under the law, that is the only meaning that matters.

In court, the prosecutor cannot force you to answer Yes/No, but apparently Waxman thinks he’s governed by a different set of rules.

Judging from his recent performance, just like Islamofacists, he doesn’t like an informed woman speaking….

Did you get this from the Levin interview or somewhere else? I heard this last night but it seems no one else is mentioning it on the internets.

Got it on H&C, though I heard it on the Levin interview you linked to as well. Thanks btw.

Oh, and Toensing keeps pointing out that Plame’s recommendation of her husband was supposedly in response to Cheney seeking out their help to find someone… yet apparently the email she wrote was on February 12, and Cheney’s meeting took place on the 13.

Clean house? George has already demonstrated his willingness to shaft his own party members who dare to heed the public message (or even worse defend the Constitution) instead of follow his party line.

Bush, is after all, only 1/3 of the gov’t. We’re seeing what Democrat control of Congress really means.

I’m not sure which one was actually there…

Nice find

According to Ms. Toensing 1 Republican member of the hearing committe – ONE – was there when she testified. The only reason her testimony was nearly drowned out is because the Republican contingent wasn’t sitting there waiting to ask the questions that’d let her roll over the Demomidgets.

Where were these freakin’ RINO deserters? Who are they?

I.WANT.NAMES!

We should kick their lazy negligent A** for this!

Does he think that Congress has the authority to conduct criminal investigations? It does not. Only the Administrative branch has the authority to conduct criminal investigations through the Department of Justice.

Does he think that Congress has the authority to determine guilt or innocence and assign punishments for criminal activities? It does not. Only the Judicial branch of the government has that authority through the federal (or state) court system.

Just what is Waxman and the others trying to accomplish here? This faux trial is only a stick that he and the rest of the Democrats are trying to use as a whip with which to punish President Bush and others for the crime of being a Republican. Other than attempt to change the Intelligence Identities Protection Act to include all current and former CIA employees (something the act does not do), what can the Democrats actually do? Absolutely nothing, except for make fools of themselves in front of the public.

why does every democrat come across as a pompous jackass?

Because the Democrat party logo is the jackass!

Because they’re pompous jackass’s.
