Thanks for the ping and info -- you are so right about the ability to get out the truth now versus back even during the Monica deal. I am totally convinced that Monica was released to take Chinagate off the radar. Having the internet back then as powerful as it is now would have made a difference IMHO.

In a way I hope that the President does not appeal the decision. He should refuse to release the documents under his authority as CIC. A commie judge should not be able to tie the Justice Dept up in knots over his Utopian vision of a just, socially progressive society. Yes, I want the liberals, the rats and the commies to come out swinging, a Peggy Noonan bench clearing constitutional brawl. Expose the fact that there are enemies here in the US. Many wear black robes and have a "D" after their name.

" He (President Bush) should refuse to release the documents under his authority as CIC."

I am certain he will do just that. Congress has no right, under the Constitution, to take away the powers given to POTUS by that document.

And when NYC goes up in mushroom cloud, who will we have to thank?

I don't know, but I'm inclined to want to thank them for ridding us of so many socialists AND simultaneously teaching them a hard lesson in one fell swoop.

Hammer meets nail. Well said.

The AUMF was only a 'kind-of' declaration of war; ...

Actually, the AUMF authorized resumption of the 1991 Gulf war -- which had been on hold during a cease-fire that was contingent upon Saddam's full cooperation with UN resolutions.

Need I mention that Saddam was anything but compliant?

The enemies within on the march. The democrat party must be utterly annihilated.

FDR had a dilemma just before America's entry into WWII. He knew he had to keep Britain from falling but Congress had passed the Neutrality Act. So he circumvented it in every way possible. Don't know if FDR every explained his reasoning but Churchill did write about it. FDR had sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution. Those two roles were in conflict. He had top violate the Neutrality Act to keep the inevitable war against the Axis winnable.

President Bush could use the same reasoning to tell this judge to %$# off. The Constitution is not a suicide pact. Despite the House Minority Leader's reverence for the Judiciary, it's not as if God has spoken. If fact, the Republican-controlled Congress could pass a law making it illegal for a judge to do this. They could declare the law not subject to judcial review. Great 2006 campaign issue: Press 1 to support the traitor judge, 2 to support national security.

Actually, the AUMF authorized resumption of the 1991 Gulf war...

Which was also a kind-of declaration of war. Look, Congress has the attention span of a two-year old; you can't expect that something they waffled on years ago is going to have any bearing on what they do now. These are not serious people.

Here's an appropriate quote:

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
~~ Thomas Jefferson

[basil]

For some reason, that little quote passes through my mind quite often these days!

[G.Mason]

And an excellent quote it was, and by a great man.

The problem we have is ... men were men in those days, the Republic was fresh and vibrant, (even though a majority of those in the colonies were apathetic, or anti) and the recollection of the experiences which drove them to the New World were still real.

We are but a fat and slothfull relative of those men.

[blackie]

You and I both basil.
Here is another appropriate quote for our times:

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom... go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels nor arms. May your chains set lightly upon you and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
~~ Samuel Adams

I answered it as I agreed with your assessment by pointing to #73. :)

YES! Another favorite of mine! Thanks for reminding me!

Isn't it sad that the generations following us never get exposed to these remarkable thoughts.

[hershey]

This is sickening. When will they wake up? When San Francisco goes BOOM?
