Then he’d be arrested for indecent exposure, cuffed, stuffed and thrown in jail until he can post bond.

About what?

He testified 5 times for the grand jury.

However they, The Grand Jury were investigating a possible crime, a possible leak of a CIA employee.

His track record is clear, if you want to question him about some ‘possible crime’ he will, just name the “Possible Crime”

If you can’t name a possible crime then what are they investigating?

What CRIME are they investigating?

Can’t be replacing “at will” “political appointments”.

They can be replaced any time, for anything, including nothing at all.

It’s been this way for a longgggggggggg time.

Were “Politics” involved with the hiring and replacement of “Political Appointees?”

Uh ya, more than likely yes.

That’s why Eric Holder is now the US AG, “POLITICS’, Obama won the election.

Should we have an investigation of Obama to find out if “POLITICS’ were involved with his selection of his “Political Appointees?”

Sounds kinda stupid don’t it.

Rove, Miers agree to talk to House panel on prosecutor firings

Frogmarch them.

And by “too much” you mean at all? a criminal attorney of my acquaintance has advised me to don’t say nothing. You can’t get charged with a process crime if you don’t participate in the process.

Always invoke your 5th amendment rights to counsel and too keep you mouth shut.

What? invoking the 5th amendment is cowardly? Who knew?

Here’s a clue: Professional women shouldn’t be judged by their appearance any more than men.

…depends on the “profession”…

The attorneys are:
“political appointees”
“who serve at the pleasure of the President”
“Bill Clinton fired a bunch when he took office”

But for some reason Congress needs to “investigate” what Pres Bush did?

FRAK.

No. I think there is real fire behind the smoke in one of the firings in NM. The others are mild cases of jade but NM stands out as having something rotten behind it unless testimony and a full airing clear the WH.

You’re talking about the dismissal of David Iglesias who refused to move prosecution forward against ACORN for voter fraud (He later resigned and guess what? NObama’s people have put him back in as U.S. attorney helping Gitmo detainees.)
Funny how ACORN comes up again and again.
See the patterns here, lexham?
Yep, it’s still a political witchhunt–I wish Godspeed to Rove and Miers in their testimony.
This is nothing but a Stalinist show trial.

Why don’t one of you compassionate conservatives take poor Harriet aside and have a talk with her about contemporary hairstyles and eyeliner abuse?

Sure, if you’ll take that paragon of beauty Ruth Bader Ginsberg aside and do the same thing.

Maybe he thought it was the right thing to do.

They may be, but it goes back to the limitations of the former president and his gang. The executive branch cannibalized itself over a synthetic issue at the behest of Democrats and the Democrat media. Bush’s betrayed base would have cheered, but he couldn’t hear outside his own bubble.

If anything, Novak’s contribution exposed and clarified. Novak got the real story and he never had use for the creative typing of the NYT or WP. His journalism is something sorely lacking in today’s Obamazombie press corps. Sunshine is the best disinfectant.

Thanks Jim.

Veronica Lake, 1946?

slp on March 4, 2009 at 11:12 PM

Nah, I think Veronica Lake had the peekaboo femme fatale look.

Bush did not leave anyone twisting in the wind. He is not the one who was shooting his mouth off to reporters and if Novak had not printed that silly story it would not have even been an issue.

Bush can not fire Fitzgerald after the Justice Dept asked for a special Prosecutor. That is just ridiculous.

I understand that Cheney felt the need to stand up for Libby, but Libby did not have to put himself in that position. He was not convicted for outing anyone, he was convicted for perjury.

Terrye on March 4, 2009 at 10:57 PM

You are right, but I think a full pardon was in order. Bush should have fired Fitzgerald, the media be damned. Fitzgerald knew Libby wasn’t the source of the leak (Armitage) and Bush left everyone twisting in the wind. I’m glad to know Cheney argued with Bush about this up to the day of the Obamanation. I hope Cheney dishes big-time in a memoir, but he may be too polite.

We have a right to expect more of our presidents, even if they are imbeciles.

Veronica Lake, 1946?

Two former aides of Conyers alleged that Conyers used his staff to work on several local and state campaigns and forced them to baby-sit and chauffeur his children.

Resolved by House Ethics Committee, December 29, 2006

Cong. Conyers’ wife is Monica Conyers, President, Detroit City Council.

She is currently under FBI investigation related to illegal contracts allegedly obtained by sludge processing company Synagro. At this time, she has not been charged with wrongdoing.

On September 4, 2008, Kwame Kilpatrick announced his resignation as mayor of Detroit, effective September 18, 2008, following a guilty plea to two felonies for obstruction of justice.

***************

John Conyers is leading the investigation of Rove and Miers and he represents the most corrupt city in the country and his wife is part of the corruption.

Unemployment numbers Friday. Ready the distraction!

Bush commuted Libby’s sentence. And speaking of stonewalling if Libby had just done what Hillary did time and again and say I don’t remember, I can’t recall etc he would not have been tripped up in his testimony.

Bush should have done what Clinton did and fire them all..then no one would have cared.

But then again Clinton was a Democrat and the same rules do not apply. Remember Berger? Sneaks out classified documents, hides them under a construction trailer and then destroys them and what happened to him? Not much.

It says as much about the stupidity of the Texas gang as it does the neo-Marxists in power. When Clinton fired all U.S. Attorneys at once, it was unprecedented, but the conclusion was that he had a right to do so.

Yeah, Miers and Rove are geniuses all right. I wonder if they know the meaning of the word stonewall. Given a choice, Bush II would throw them under the bus the way he did Scooter Libby.
