1. This is great!
This is what needs to be done...what will be interesting is what Mr. Torture does with it. If he lies to the House, can we impeach him, or is that only for Democrats' sexual escapades?

2. How bout investigating the war profiteers which is no act...??
It may be fun to watch on TV BUT the last alleged investigation i.e. 9/11 commission was simply a gathering of criminals..most of whom had HUGE conflcits of interest

BUT I guess any light shining in D.C. is libel to show some slimy reptiles trying to crawl away and can result in more anesthetized
citizens waking up..

4. The LAST remaining counter-offense to the neoCONfascists!!!
This renews my hope.

I SWEAR TO GOD,...if it takes flooding the judicial gates every single day,...DO IT!!!

FORCE the one remaining balance of powers to DEFEND against the tyrannical notions. They will. Those who are "HOs" will collapse, quickly!!!!
