3. No, this is on C-Span, not C-Span 2.
It's live from the House - a special order speech.

7. These speeches are for the TV audience.
And to get stuff into the Congressional Record.

Rarely is anyone from the opposing party there while members speak in Special Order speeches.

12. Freepers being completely, totally deluded again
here you go: Hahahahahahah!! Nutsy time!

To: LisaFab

Hasn't an investigation just been completed by Special Prosecutor Fitzgerald?


To: LisaFab
The Dems know the report is coming soon, so they wanted to make a big fuss and accuse a "cover-up" and "conspiracy" because the report is going to rebuke all of their rhetoric of the last 2 years.

They are trying to set the tone for how the report is received. They would like it if the headline following the report release is "Republican Cover-up?"

The GOP really needs to get smart and stop playing nice with these clowns. Republicans constantly assume civility, honesty, and good faith from the Democrats, and they keep getting stung by their stunts and dirty tricks.

The GOP needs to roll up their sleeves and fight back. They should be using the power of investigation and prosecution against people like Joe Wilson, Ronnie Earle, and Harry Reid.

I think we're all getting sick of different sets of rules for Republicans and Democrats.

As I've said before, the Dems will keep pushing this thing until they find a way to run Bush out of town.

They're "Pushing Too Hard" for their own good and have been for quite some time and have shown their agenda to be directed too much to political party and not enough for what is best for us as a country.

They are in process of imploding and they don't care who they take down in their implosion.

(MY NOTE; YEAH, THAT IS WHY BUSH'S APPROVAL IS 36%)


To: prairiebreeze

Did you just happen to watch O'Reilly???

He had Tony Snow on....and Snow had to smack him down about some things...

O'Reilly even posited that Bush FAKED intelligence to go to war!!!

MY NOTE: EVEN O'REILLY SOUNDS LIKE HE IS JUMPING SHIP, ALTHOUGH THAT IS THE ONE SHOW I CANNOT WATCH BECAUSE I WANT TO VOMIT THINKING ABOUT HIM STICKING A LOOFAH UP HIS BUTT

To: Protect the Bill of Rights
I'm even better at night, when Scotch Whisky raises my IQ a few points more.

MY NOTE: YOU NEED TO DRINK A LOT MORE SCOTCH WHISKY

Nice post.


To: LisaFab
I really really really really really hope that the GOP doesn't just bend over and take one in the a$$ again. Isn't it high time we start playing some hardball against the opposing team?

Last time I checked, didn't we own the presidency, the house and the senate? Yet the Democrates seem to be running the show as of late. Sure they look like a bunch of stupid , idiotic, bumbling buffoons but they still seem to be running the show (at least that's how it's portrayed on the MSM).

Isn't it time to take the schoolyard bullies out behind the woodshed for some serious practice with a baseball bat?

OOH, R. KANGEL, YOU ARE THREATHENING VIOLENCE.

To: counterpunch
What happened today, is that the Dems gave up. They decided that they have to go bonkers and have a tantrum to get noticed, just like a spoiled brat. What is to be done now, is to spank the little snots until they bleed.

We just saw the major opposition party throw up their hands, lay down on their backs and kick their feet in the air, screaming NOTICE ME! Our job is to send them to bed with no dinner, no dessert and no effin indictment.

MY NOTE: YOU MUST HAVE MEANT THE "MAJORITY" PARTY, NOT THE "MINORITY" HAVING THE TEMPER TANTRUM - OR DID YOU MISS SENATOR FRIST PRACTICALLY BLUBBERING IN TEARS???

To: Pukin Dog

Harry Reid should be censured by the Senate for this bad faith stunt.

To quote the worst line in all six movies, when Annakin is told he killed Padme: "Nooooooooooooo!".

I thought I was watching a spoof for a split second.

IMHO The Zahn books should have been put on film...

HE should then Call on the Preisident (SIC) to direct the AG, to direct FITZGERALD to empanel a NEW GRAND JURY to investigate Possible Hatch Act Violations that may have occurred in conjunction with Joe Wilsons trip.

The dems may see something like this coming - thus this strike today.
I always ask my democrat mother what she thinks on things like this and she said today's actions by her party were disgusting and wasteful. She is not "the base" they are playing to. She is just a democrat who votes straight ticket and contributes $ on a regular basis. There are millions like her and I would bet most of them feel just the way she does about this circus today.

MY NOTE: I AM SURE "MODERATE" DEMS LIKE YOUR MOTHER ARE DISGUSTED WITH WHAT THE DEMS DID TODAY - LIAR. ONLY 36% CAN STOMACH BUSH ANYMORE, AND TRUST ME, I TALK TO A LOT OF PEOPLE, NONE OF THEM ARE MODERATE DEMS WHO CONTRIBUTE TO THE PARTY. LIAR.
To: Txsleuth; Tony Snow

Nope, I rarely watch O'Really. Easier on my BP that way, but good for Tony for not letting him get away with lying!

To: mewzilla

The ad should say, "...and don't bother calling your senators if they're Dems, since they don't listen anyway...just vote Republican, and get a team that fights for America, acts like adults, gets things accomplished, and cares about you!"
