NYT FRIDAY: Rove and Libby have been advised that they may be in serious legal jeopardy, but only this week has Fitzgerald begun to narrow the possible charges. The prosecutor has said he will not make up his mind about any charges until next week, government officials say... Developing...
Governor Barbour is a good one.
My favorite Senator is Coburn and my favorite Congressman is Mike Pence. As for governor my current favorite, until Ken Blackwell is elected, is Mark Sanford of SC.
No kidding?
Better call John Bolton and inform him he's not the UN ambassador.
Those WERE the days!!
FR united in the various ways to discourage and destroy our enemies.
And the best debates were, who to kill first?
Recess appointments are constitutional. They also expire.
I assumed that you were and was using your post to make a point.
Haley is a good conservative.
Me, I'm a wingnut...without the "nut."
I really Coburn too. DeLay's been my fav for years.
I sure as heck don't see this anymore.
X-cell-ent!
That's right and you got your guy back into the White House. So quit yer bitchin'. How long have you been a Republican? Fighting "for a side that doesn't fight for itself" comes with the territory. It's been that way for a long time. The mindset in the real world is way off kilter from the D.C. version. These people only remember us around election time. The rest of the time they kow-tow to a MSM that would--and does--stick sharp knives right in their backs.
It just goes to show the Dems don't have a corner on stupidity.
He needs our support. He's trying to change the senate from a mutual pork socitey. It's not an easy job and many from both sides of the aisle hate him for it.
I think it goes deeper than that. I think it goes to Able Danger.
Six years isn't instant, it's quite some time to wait, and forever is unacceptable. But more than that it is not at all a given that the direction they intend to go is the one they promised. Remember "smaller government"?
Seeing the GOP buy into "diversity" six years into a reign that was promised to bring us rightwards is a very bad sign. Six years is plenty to wait. The GOP has taken our patience and abused it, and relied on our faith and support to allow them the freedom to move left.
It's time to create some pressure on the right. We should be smart and learn what works - the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Those whose support is not a given get all the benefits.
It's time to exercise power in this proven way: Let the others fight among each other; and let us be the difference in which one will win, so that the winner will do our bidding.
To continue as we are in blind faith is to waste our efforts and our breath for no gain. The GOP and Democrat parties are more faithful to the power-sharing system that they have worked out between them than to any of the constituent groups that make up their respective electoral bases - but they will always heed the ones whose choice will make the difference between winning and losing. If by exercising the choice to sit out (or at the minimum preserving the ability to make a credible threat to do so), and to thereby punish elected officials for failing to serve our concerns, we get someone worse in the short term, then it will be worth the sacrifice to ensure that our next representative will be made of sterner stuff than the names on the Neuticles gift registry.
Re #409.
I'm a Reagan Democrat turned Republican so I'm still not used to the playing softball against the thugs.
LOL! Yep, Haley is my type of conservative. He keeps his word but knows that in politics, there's always compromise... give and take, but he ends up charming the opposition with a hammer so that he takes more than he gives...lol.
They also clearly mean that the senators do not have the last word.
Really? Who on our side of the aisle are giving him trouble?
agree..., but will not put anything past Soros connection with CIA.
That's because the Perpetually Pi$$ed Off and the Malcontents have come out of the woodwork to dance, as they see it, on George Bush's political grave.
So in other words you deliberately solicited our support under false pretenses and have no right to complain about the lack of it now that the lie is known?
That explanation works for me.
rofl......I'm with you!
