Alberto, you have BOTH feet in your mouth!

He tries to worm out of having claimed there was no internal dissension over the wiretapping by claiming it was ANOTHER illegal program! Either that is a bold-faced lie and it really WAS the program we know about, or there IS another, completely unmonitored, secret program.

On Thom Hartman someone pointed out that this program, whatever it was, that had to be renewed every six months, was due to be renewed on March 11. What is six months from March 11?


Whatever this program is, if it exists, it is up for renewal every Sept 11 and March 11. So it probably was launched on Sept 11. Sept 11, 2001. Why would a secret program developed in response to 9/11 be launched on an exact anniversary? Which means the plans for it were already in place BEFORE Sept 11. Or it is just a coincidence - after all, a broken clock is right twice a day.

So has Gonzo committed out-and-out perjury that Jay Rockefeller is ready to testify to, or has he spilled the beans on some godawful Fascist scheme we didn't even know about?

What's it gonna be, Gonzo? Door #1? Or door #2?

1. and his ass on a banana peel

Anybody know if any substance to speculation that Ashcroft testified in secret to the committee?

Would be damned amusing if the junta goose gets cooked by proving perjury due to some info from Ashcroft.

3. hard to believe that

if Ashcroft has an ounce of patriotism he would keep quiet. I couldn't stand him, but these accounts suggest he had SOME scruples.

And his wife was present in the hospital; could testify without any constraints from "executive privilege"

And by the way, whatever they discussed in front of her constituted breach of security clearance.

2. That was very observant... and these guys are not very smart for sure...

The question now becomes, how do we nail them?
