This page's scoop last November--revealing Senate Democratic strategy memos on how to defeat President Bush's judicial nominees--created quite a kerfuffle. The excerpts appeared in an editorial on a Friday. On Monday, the Capitol Police swooped down on the offices of the Senate Judiciary Committee in search of evidence of who leaked the documents. Now, nearly four months later, the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms has delivered a report confirming that 4,700 files were downloaded and that security was extremely lax on the Judiciary computers.

The rat vermin in the Senate are traitors, war criminals, and obvious enemies of the US.

The testicle-challenged Republican Senators are classic enablers of their sociopathic counterparts. In their own way the Republicans are just as sick as the rats.

[Paul Atreides]

They have a knack for having the upper hand and using it to the Dims' advantage.

[Viking2002]

Exactly. We have a passel of RINO representatives with no nads. The good ones always get ill from the way Washington operates, and decide not to run again. If Capitol Hill got hit by a meteor, it would clean up politics better than the next ten elections combined.

Those idiots had no idea how do use an open system properly, tried to use it like their own office networks or home PCs, and screwed themselves.

IT'S CALLED NO GONADS.

[thoughtomator]

I was talking about the Dims... yes "no gonads" is an accurate analysis of the GOP side, I do agree.

[CommandoFrank]

Never have, never will...

Question: Mr. Miranda's sin here seems to be at most a misdemeanor. The Democrats, by contrast, are trampling on the Constitution with their filibuster of appeals-court nominees. Isn't that worse--by far?

Democrat answer: Oh no, hang him from the yard arm!!!!!!!

Pubbie answer: Oh no, hang him from the yard arm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pathetic.

[Interesting Times]

Let's start a petition that Senator Hatch must at all times wear a clown nose, fright wig and floppy shoes.

[abner]

Fantastic idea.

I just pinged you to another thread with more names involved in this mess. Apparently, they couldn't even keep those secret... .

[paul51]

because they are a bunch of panty wastes concerned only with enriching themselves and keeping their office at any cost

[LiteKeeper]

Senator "Ostrich" Hatch is spineless! [Psst...pass it on]

We need to begin assailing his office with demands that he stand up to the demoRATS

[Huber]

BUMP!
