House Speaker Hastert: "Loose Lips Kill Americans"

Don't you love how everything is reduced down to fit on a bumpersticker?
Hey Dennis, maybe its YOU AND YOUR PALS who are Killing Americans.

---------------------------------

Declaring that "loose lips" kill Americans, a top congressional Republican leader said on Wednesday the House of Representatives will debate a resolution condemning the U.S. media for exposing details of secret intelligence programs.

The move heaps more criticism on The New York Times and other newspapers that reported last week on a secret program by the U.S. Treasury Department that tracks private bank records.

Leaks are only bad when they don't benefit the GOP!!!!

14. "Loose Lips Sink Ships" is befitting the SINKING Republican Party!
enneyway...If Bush didn't want this info out it wouldn't be out.

There are so many people out there who regularly do huge banking
transactions for whatever reason (business, pleasure), they don't
know where to start looking.

What they will look for is any change in pattern of someone's
banking habits. A change in banking habits would result in an
automatic flagging of their account and opening the door to an
investigation.

3. I don't see any evidence they were up in arms over the Plame leak
That one truly could have resulted in loss of life.

Dumb bastards

7. Loose Lips Kill American Republican Schemes Is What He Meant To.....
say. Loose lips kill repug deals and schemes - and we can't have none of that. I need the money that I'm gonna make when the highway goes through my land. The oil companies need the money that they are gouging from the people. The only money I'm following is the money that's coming into my pocket from the sweet deals that I'm allowed to make because I'm lucky enough to be the Speaker of the House when we control the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government. Why this is a perfect storm - and perfect storms don't come about all that often. When they do - I'm - I mean we're gonna take advantage of anything we can get. Ole George will pardon us when he leaves office - so - we're entitled to this. I mean - we rigged and stole the elections. We forced those Dems into giving ole George all his powers to declare war on anybody for any reason - otherwise we'd call them unpatriotic. And you know how they don't like to be called unpatriotic. We got control of all the committee's. We don't have to do anything they want us to do. We can do as we please. This is our just reward for scamming the system.

thoughts by Denny Hastert - June 29, 2006 - as he wakes up in the morning and looks in the mirror. It's showtime!!!!!!!

8. We are seeing a rerun of 2002, and 2004...
The question is how many times the Dems can get snookered by the same strategy.

15. I thought fat fuckers enriching themselves thru their offices
were killing Americans. Wars of choice so their cronies can profit, land deals so they can arrange highway projects to skyrocket their property values, Denny, lies to the American people for political advantage kill American people, in short this corrupt republican administration has killed so many people Fatboy that you have a date in the Hague, count on it.

16. Illegal actions hidden beneath a cloak of secrecy
The only true patriots are the ones brave enough
to expose these crooks.. as the NY Times has done.

Perhaps some politicians should follow their
example of defending the constitution. geeeeez

18. Ms Plame built a network that REALLY did work to make us safer
the neocons destroyed it with their loose lips. Her group actually kept track of the real attempts to move weapons materials and keep track of who had what. A vindictive, self serving group in the administration outed her, destroying a good tool and making it hard for CIA to get informers to work with them.

Dick Cheney's snit over Joe Wilson telling the truth about the lie of Saddam/Niger Yellow Cake cost the world a lot of protection. We will never know the full count of the lives those loose lips snuffed out!

Shove that down your pie hole, Hastert!
