A comment on Tweety's show today

[No Exit]

Andrea Mitchell, war whore, has explained to us why Sen. Kay Hutchison made her ludicrously hypocritical remarks yesterday, to the effect that "perjury is just a technicality".

According to Dogface Mitchell, you see, Ms. Hutchison made this remark because "she had been investigated by Ronnie Earle, a democrat", and was subsequently "exonerated".

Oh, okay. I'm so glad we have these well-connected bigwigs like Andrea to explain this to us little people. See, it's ALL RONNIE EARLE'S FAULT!

Andrea's "analysis" would not have passed muster in a 10th grade government class.

[Inland]

1. Yeah, she too has found laws to be irritating technicalites.

Next, G Gordon Liddy and Chuck Colson tell us how good people get tripped out by criminalizing politics.

[slor]

2. She said that shit!?!

I will watch the rerun, but I hope we are not the only ones to see through that crap.

[No Exit]

11. Considering that it literally made no sense at all,

I have high hopes that any person other than a freeptard could see through it like you see through a freshly-polished windowpane!

[MidwestTransplant]

3. That woman is so useless. Why would anybody have her on their show

I truely think she is neither intelligent nor well spoken and never has anything usefull to add other then letting it slip that Powell is talking with Fitz.

[Pirate Smile]

4. Well, I was glad Tweety said it was ridiculous or something to that

effect re what Hutchensen said.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

5. What a fucking hack! n/t

[flpoljunkie]

6. Kay Bailey was "exonerated" by the sitting judge in the case who refused

allow any of the evidence Ronnie Earle had gathered to be presented at trial.

Consequently, Ronnie Earle had not choice but to end the case.

[No Exit]

10. Really?? Well, SURPRISE, SURPRISE, SURPRISE!

Then I guess we should re-classify Kay's prosecution as "not proved" instead of "not guilty".

"Exonerated", my foot.

[truebrit71]

7. More RW bullshit from one of the premiere media-whores...

...she was not "exonerated", the judge wouldn't allow Earle to present his evidence so Earle withdrew the charges knowing that he couldn't win the case...

Regardless, Mrs Greenspan is a fucking liar, and Hutchinson is a USDA Prime Moran.....

[Neocondriac]

8. Mrs Greenspan...

should step down. Move to Margate with Alan. You facokta fucks!

[clydefrand]

9. Why isn't the question for any jounalists hearing such answers

as hers: Why would there ever be a reason for them to lie if no one has done anything wrong? Lying to me only signals that they have done something wrong.

We know that from Big Dog's sex scandal. He lied because he knew it was wrong to do this to his family. Wrong for him? That's for him to decide. Wrong for me? Only that it put the country through the turmoil that it did. I'm not judging him except for that reason. I care not about someone's sex life. How I wish we only had a sex scandal going on now and he were still in office. I'll bet there are a lot of repukes who wish the same, but would never admit it.

12. ABC's The Note has a Good Article on this......

Hutchison hopes that if there is an indictment, "it is an indictment on a crime and not some perjury technicality where they couldn't indict on the crime and so they go to something just to show that their two years of investigation was not a waste of time and taxpayer dollars."

When President Clinton was going through his little adventure, Sen. Hutchison said that perjury and obstruction of justice were pretty serious charges. Each, she said, "is calculated to prevent a court and the public from discovering the truth and achieving justice in our judicial system." This comes from her remarks in the Senate's closed deliberations on the articles of impeachment against President Clinton. She submitted them for the record on February 12, 1999.

Sen. Hutchison pointed out that the "Senate on numerous occasions has convicted impeached Federal Judges on allegations of perjury." She went on to say that "the standards are set by the Constitution for all officers of the Federal government. They are precisely the same, and we are obligated to apply them evenly."

"Lying is a moral wrong," Hutchison said. "Perjury is a lie told under oath that is legally wrong. To be illegal, the lie must be willfully told, must be believed to be untrue, and must relate to a material matter."
Sen. Hutchison's conclusion, therefore:..........More

[Beausoir]

13. I thought the same thing.

WTF does Earle have to do with Bailey-Hutchison's about face on perjury?

Fucking pathetic.

[Jane Austin]

14. Hutchison was not exonerated.

Her lawyer, the now-familiar Dick DeGuerin, found a friendly judge who ruled Earle's best evidence inadmissible.

It was perfectly good evidence - - either an audio or video tape, if I recall - - but in a political move, it was ruled inadmissible.

[No Exit]

15. Well, I guess only the rich and mighty, such as Bugman and Kay,

can afford to shop at "The Judge-Shoppers Boutique"!

[StClone]

16. Yes a technicality

Hutchinson got off on a technicality...interesting.

[No Exit]

17. Fucker Carlson: "They (the WH) should at least have kept open the

option to attack him (Pat Fitz)!"

Can you BELIEVE what these scumbags are saying??????

Attacking the prosecutor is a "good option"????

Tell it to all the people who are doing long federal prison time for threatening federal judges and prosecutors!!!!

[seabeyond]

18. hutchinsons ass should have been in jail, judge didnt

allow some of the stuff in, why case was thrown out so quickly and there was some other shenanigans in it

[Kingofalldems]

19. Mitchell was the official WH stenographer for the Clintons

trash the WH and steal from AF1 lie.

[WinkyDink]

20. Okay, I have a question:

Is it fair and accurate to state, as Tweety did several times, that Clinton committed perjury?
IOW, isn't that what he was ACCUSED of but NOT convicted of, and therefore cannot be said to have "committed" it?

(Edited from: Above post's title is misleading!)

[AX10]

21. and she wasn't too happy when Tweets made it clear...

that Clinton was impeached on a "perjury charge". That means that Rove can be indicted in the same manner and mediawhores like her won't have a leg left to stand on.
