Today is an ominous day for the country, signifying a new low since Watergate in terms of openness and honesty in our government. This is far more than an indictment of an individual. In effect it's an indictment of the vicious and devious tactics used by the Administration to justify a war we never should have fought. It's an indictment of the lengths Administration officials were willing to go to cover up their failed intelligence, their distortion on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, and their serious blunders on the war. It is an indictment of their vindictive efforts to discredit anyone who challenge their misrepresentations.
The American people know the high cost of this misguided war -- 2,000 U.S. soldiers dead, more than 15,000 wounded, hundreds of billions of dollars spent with no end in sight, and a continuing shameful effort by the White House to silence those who try to tell the truth about the war. Dissent is the ultimate form of patriotism, and it's time we return to having an honest discourse in this country about changing direction and paying attention to the needs of the American people. The President should take this opportunity to do everything he can to heal the country by not interfering with the prosecution of this case or the continuing investigation, and by cleaning house at the White House to immunize the country against any further corruption and dishonesty. As the President promised, anyone still in the White House who had anything to do with this scandalous plot or the cover-up should be dismissed immediately, whether or not they have been indicted. Something has to give America can't stand three more years of this failed Bush presidency.
Hey Teddy - you want to talk about the dead? Let's start with Mary Jo, shall we?
Liver do your duty!
Poor fat boy, his brain has been pickled by all the drunks he's been on, most of his life, lolol....
I hear he isn't supporting the woman of his dreams this year, he is supporting the treasoner kerry....wonder what she has to say about this????
He's so disgusting, I laugh at him....especially after reading 'Teddy Bare' boy that was enough to make ya sick...
Teddy's just slime no matter which way you slice him. His phone number at the senate office building is 202 224-4543, which spells out 202 A BIG LIE.
His rhetoric is irresponsible. He may be so out of touch that he doesn't know what he is encouraging, but I won't give him much of a break on this. Does he think about what he is saying after what happened to his brother? We can't stand John F. Kennedy to continue as president. Some people felt that way. Things are really out of hand.
I wonder if anyone has ever thought the reason Kennedy bashes Bush so much is that he sees the family dynasty (or so perceived dynasty) being eclipsed by the Bushes (Bush 41, Bush 43, Jeb...) that he is just trying to make everyone think back to the days of JFK and the esteem many in the country felt about them.
If you ask me, he needs to shut his pie hole and drink himself to an early retirement. The country would be better off for it and the Kennedy name would just fade away...
I think you've nailed it!
The fact this creature still viable politcally, is an indictment in itself..
Web Hubbel going to jail, anyone! The impeached bent one, anyone.
And then that little matter of Chappaquiddick.
That explains why you're still parroting the same old BS.
Yes, it is. Catholic, I think not. He is a disgrace.
That is complete twaddle on Senator Kennedy's part.
Mr. Libby was indicted on charges that were derivative to the original allegations of misdoing on intelligence matters, which apparently based on numerous lies by Mr. Wilson. Senator Kennedy is absurdly attempting to conflate such stretching in these charges by the embarrassingly inept prosecutor with actually having shown that there was even something simply questionable done on the part of members of the administration.
As others have suggested, Senator Kennedy would be better served to keep his ridiculous ravings confined to the vicinity of the Kennedy compound's wet bars.
Guess the fat drunk didn't hear Fitz say this had nothing to do with the war huh?
Well .. since it's a failed presidency .. the president should shove every conservative agenda down the Dems throats
Hey he has nothing to lose
Right. Exactly right.
Nope .. they son't care and pretend not to hear anything but themselves
