I wounder if they're having nightmares yet of what will come out when the special prosecutor's report is released?

It's going to be vastly entertaining to watch them ask to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the special prosecutor's cover up.

I watched part of that non-official official hearing last night on "non-partisian" CSPAN. Complete with very impressive subtitles and credentials. If I did not know better, I would think it was a real honest to God congressional hearing on the pending trial and punishment of Karl Rove.

Thanks to freepers whose many humorous graphics and comments lighten up a non-funny and dangerous situation embedded in our halls of Congress......hateful, power-hungry, America-hating senators and representatives who put our country second to their twisted ambitions.

When things appear dark, humor is an antidote. Let's keep both light-hearted and strong-hearted. The cancer in the senate....Schumer, Kennedy, Durbin, KKK Byrd, Reid, etal are outing themselves for what they are every day.

God bless and protect America and our military, each of which these cave-dwelling moonbats undermine with every noxious breath they exhale.

I'm waiting for Conyers, Kerry or Schumer to be in one of those Vonage® commercials.

I was going to mention that Conyers was not only a communist but stupid too; however, I thought that might be redundant.

I try not to let this get to me, annie, but these people are not only insane but they're treacherous.

I often wish we still had the punishment for traitors that the Founders would have given these guys..........

>>hmmmmmmmmmmm.....maybe I'll take a page from Michael Jackson's book and create a "Last Supper" sort of image with the "DimocRAT version of the 12 apostles"!<<

If it's dimocRAT, make sure they all have horns.

What the heck "committee" is this?

Co-Chairmen, Senate Democratic Policy Committee

The Senate Democratic Policy Committee (DPC) is the policy-making arm of the Senate Democrats. The Senate Minority Leader and an appointed co-chair work to develop policy proposals that will then be presented to the members of the Senate Democratic Conference for consideration.

The Democratic Policy Committee will help formulate distinct Democratic legislative initiatives that will make the Democratic message to the American people crystal clear.

But then we have this:



From The Hill:

Judiciary GOP pulls the plug on Conyers 'forums'
By Albert Eisele and Jeff Dufour


If the Financial Services Committee is the best in the House when it comes to bipartisan comity, then the Judiciary Committee may well be the worst.

In December, ranking Democrat John Conyers (Mich.) began holding “forums” — gatherings with all the trappings of official hearings — after Chairman James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) refused to hold hearings on topics Conyers requested. The forums have been held in smaller committee rooms, often with C-SPAN coverage and formal witness lists.

In a sign of how far relationships on the committee have soured, majority staff recently announced a new policy to deny any request from a committee Democrat for the use of a committee hearing room.

Majority spokesman Jeff Lungren said the Republicans have given Democrats three opportunities to make clear that the forums are not official committee business. Nevertheless, Lungren said, in at least one case, members were addressing Conyers as “Mr. Chairman.”

“They were unwilling or unable to make those changes,” Lungren said. “At this point, if they want to hold these forums, they’ll have to find some other place to do it.”

Sean McLaughlin, deputy chief of staff for Sensenbrenner, recently wrote to a minority staffer in more pointed language.

“I’m sitting here watching your ‘forum’ on C-SPAN,” McLaughlin wrote. “Just to let you know, it was your last. Don’t bother asking [for a room] again.”

A committee source said committee Democrats are still planning to hold the forums when they find other available space.

I'd like to know who else was there!

take out the words "in all likelihood" and you have Sandy Berger, who has escaped the outrage of Up-Chuck Schumer!

And Berger was investigated, indicted, tried and convicted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As far as I'm concerned, these rabid Dems can keep on the Rove rant forever. It's not hurting Rove and only making themselves look stupid. People are getting tired of the same old rant and not even listening to them anymore. They only have the attention of their own choir. (and the MSM,which is their choir too)

Watching the hearings, I was reminded of the partisan bushwa held by the same Conyers trying to get to the bottom of the DUmmie alleged voter fraud in Ohio several months ago. What a farcical circus that was.

I agree, these Democrats are only preaching to their looney bin fringe psycho barking moonbat choir. They're obviously not interested in anyone but the fringe dingbats that comprise 1% of their voter base. It's clear the Democrat party is basing it's survival on conspiratorial nonsense, boogeymen in closets, and the Micheal Moore types that have hijacked the Democrat party.

And every time the MSM posts Rove's picture while discussing his *obvious involvement in crimes, misdemeanors, and megalomania cal desire to rule the world*, the average Joe sees that photo. The two just don't jive. It's the wrong face for such an evil intent. That's the dem's dilemma. We are all pissed at the obvious evil intent of the dems. and MSM, and the lack of The Truth being told. The American public at large, though, can't wrap their brains around the charges vs. Rove. It's a joke. They cannot make a monster out of a guy who looks like your normal next door neighbor.
