DOO DOO is hitting the fan on the Senate Floor!
Democrat Senators are demanding the Truth about the Resident's snafu! Back to back speeches demanding the answers and demanding that people in the WH being held accountable for the misinformation! Didn't Rummy say that he wanted a Department of Disinformation several months back? Do these people think we have no right to know the true state of the union?

1. The Bushies are claiming the Brits did it
The Brits claim the CIA did it

Then the White House claims the CIA cleared the damn speech.

Then the CIA sez, fuck you, you did it on your own.

The CIA has the proof, the FBI has the Proof, Mongo has the Proof.

The Bushies tasting shit for the first time. Forget crow, these guys gonna eat shit.

6. Divide et imperium
Ever since Byrd, bless his heart, called into question the quality of intelligence provided to the administration, rather than attacking the administration directly (whom we all know in reality knowingly lied through their teeth), I had the feeling that was such a shrewd way to play it. Now the CIA has to defend themselves, so they're turning their fire on the White House (where it belongs), the White House returns fire against the Agency, and so the two get to expend their energy attacking each other while we get to just sit back and watch them tear each other to pieces! What a happy state of affairs! Besides, if it's the Agency doing the attacking, no one can claim it's those partisan Dems looking for any excuse to ravage the administration. Beautiful!

administrations come and go, but the bureaucrats are forever.
Oh, you might name your own director, but all the troops will remain the same and you better believe they know it.

14. This reminds me of that Thomas Nast cartoon...
of Boss Tweed and Tammany Hall...

The lower picture is the most successful of Nast's Tweed regime cartoons. Representing the "Ring" standing in a circle, pointing one to the other, and each one saying "Who stole the people's money? - Do Tell. 'Twas Him."
http://www.printsoldandrare.com/thomasnast/

Instead we have the question "Who gave incorrect and misleading information?" and everyone involved points to someone else.

3. boom, Boom, BOOM!
Keep drumming, folks! The great mass of the American people can be led, but we have to get them pointed in the right direction. This is an easy sell, and we can get to more as time passes (there's a LOT of dirty laundry this corrupt administration would like not to air).

Thousands have died, including hundreds of American soldiers. Based on lies? It sure looks like that. And are we any safer, with another soldier or two dying every day in Iraq? And what's the exit strategy? General Franks said yesterday we might be there for two years, four years, perhaps longer. Is this a vital American interest? And how are we going to pay for this, considering the record deficit the Credit Card Republicans have run up this year?

One question so easily leads to another, and sooner or later one will hit an interest vital to just about everyone.

Boom, boom, boom, boom.

5. No Overtime pay so investigations conducted on straight time only
This must be their plan to delay the inevitable investigations. Can't be done on overtime basis because the Government won't pay overtime any longer.

Perfect Timing for this and the Patriot Act to hit congress! This is going to be entertaining! This is going to slow the Bush Stampede to ruin!

7. Let's see...
$4 BILLION per month, twelve months a year, four years....

Gee, we're looking at just shy of TWO HUNDRED BILLION over the next four years to hunt for Saddam's WMD's while the BFEE pumps out that sweet Iraqi crude.

Your tax dollars at work!!!

8. that oil will not come here.
It will go to south Asia and possibly Israel. Just like the ANWR oil, it is not for us, it is for the Asians.

11. I watched it on Cspan2 about an hour and a half ago!
It was the regular live Senate coverage! I think it will be rebroadcast later! Senators Dick Durbin and Mary Landrieu were the ones I saw Ream the Parasite in Chief!

10. It's ticking me off!
You notice when it's mentioned that Democrats are wanting an investigation or want some answeres from * and his cronies, they always mention these Democrats are running for President? In other words they are saying it's all politics.

Media whores!:grr:

17. Pukes are the Masters of Deciet/Deception. They like the smoke
in a Santa Anna wind, you never know when the fire comes nx, so stay far away from those sneaky Pubs. They pose as good guys but are chicken shit Hawks who run from fireworks.
