Democrats-only Hill hearing targets Rove [Conyers: “ ...treason ... abuse of power”]
THE WASHINGTON TIMES ^ | July 23, 2005 | By James G. Lakely

Democrats convened a partisan hearing yesterday in an attempt to breathe new life into the suspicion that Karl Rove is guilty of an illegal leak to the press.

The hearing, convened in a Senate office building by the Democratic Policy Committee, featured both House and Senate members and a slate of witnesses guaranteed to testify that the deputy White House chief of staff was guilty of misdeeds in leaking the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame. "We know that a dastardly crime in all likelihood was committed," said Sen. Charles E. Schumer, New York Democrat.

MSNBC's 'Hardbowel' had devoted the whole week to the Rove/Plame story... THE WHOLE WEEK! Of course, they were forced to mention Roberts on Wednesday and the London flap on Thursday... but the whole week was ALL ROVE.

The Dem's are following the MSM's lead on this one... just like they did in the RatherGate memo's. I just hope Fitzgerald is as dedicated to getting at the truth as they say he is.

Rep. John Conyers Jr., Michigan Democrat, said that what occurred is "at its worst, treason committed by high-level White House officials, and at the best we have seen an abuse of power."

Conyers has outted himself a while back as an utter Barking Moonbat.



Bark! Bark! Bark! Grrrrr......

This is so delicious.

No bully pulpit, no Committee chairs, A whole lot less MSM and these poor fools are left with a Dems only "hearing".

I say give them a closet after the next electoral spanking.

"They are probably cursing over these London bombings...."


Sadly, I think they actually relish these attacks....they'll jump at another opportunity to use torn apart victims as fodder to further their agenda against Bush.

Conyers is a fake American, who shows fake concern for fake problems. The only real thing about Conyers is that he's a hard-core communist.

"By the way isn't Conyers the one that always holds these fake hearings in a basement somewhere?"
Yeap - he's the want who like to hold Kangaroo courts.

"He must be the DUmmies mascot or something."

BINGO!

"He conducted them on the '' Downing Street memo''. ''Ohio voting irregularities'' Gitmo'' attrocities ''and now this? He must be the DUmmies mascot or something.How much lower can these people go?"

He is, and DU is where all of these moonbat attacks using crazy rumor and conspiracy theoriess come from. DU is now the unoficial headquarter's of the dumbocrat party.

How much lower can these people go? Read DU on friday nights weekends, and during full moons. that's when they hatch these moonbat conspiracy theories, then mass email them to democrats.

Dastardly crimes were committed? Yes, they were. Under Schumer's hero, President Clinton! Yet anytime conservatives raised objections to any if the shenanigans that went on in the Clinton White House we were just dismissed as crazies and right wing hate mongers.

WTH are they talking about???

They're back to the basement shadow government impeachment hearings, I see. With homeless people dragged in to play the parts of Rove, Bush, and Clarence Thomas. A coven of deranged fools. With at least enough power to cast one vote each on crucial issues facing our country. It's so discouraging just to have to acknowledge they have a say in anything of importance.

The Democrats are desperate to sully the Bush Administration any way they can. They are trying to use the Plame Name Game as their first weapon and they will bring out the next set of Abu Ghraib photos this next week, to attack the office of the presidency.

The Democrats do not have the best interests of this nation at heart and it is up to each of us to get that information out to the general public.

HARDBALL..."All Rove, All the Time."

Maybe that helps to explain their ratings.
