163. Here comes the hit man...
John Cornyn (R-Tex)

The "specter" of partisan politics...(you aint' seen nothin't yet, Tex!)

...vitriol, poison used to assassinate the character of people like Alberto Gonzales, a personification of the American Dream (yeah, torture)

...bringing the hard feelings of the campaign

...to "impugn" the integrity...beneath the dignity of this body

...to try to tie Rice of Abu Ghraib, which was a handful of individuals, disgusting actions by sick individuals, who are being prosecuted

...tying her to torture, to demean her service, taint her nomination; to dare to say this Admin. approves a policy of torture

(o-o-o-o, the torture thing really gets to them--how dare anyone impugn their integrity?)

--"tired old arguments" on war on terror, partic. "Oper. Iraqi Freedom"

--(he's lying - he's saying Iraq was plotting terror against us)

--invoking FDR and 1941 (don't wait til you see the whites of their eyes)

--invokes Israel taking out nukes...and Israel still there (whose government do these BushCons represent?)

--(lying again--he's saying every gov't in the world believed Iraq had WMDs--NOT TRUE! France! Germany! Russia! China! And everbody else said, Don't invade! Not necessary! Inspectors are doing their job!)

I cannot believe the lies. No more reporting of them by me. I'm taking a little break, hoping Tex will be finished soon.
