Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing on Censuring the President for NSA Surveillance
Ha! Hatch was great with Dean. Spanked him good.
OMG!
Very damn cool of Hatch to remind John Dean that he wrote earlier the president does not have to go to congress to implement his presidential powers.
John Dean is sputtering something about prima facia (sp) evidence Bush broke the law. Hatch says "you got no evidence of that", and repeats it to shut Dean up. Delicious!!!!
Don't you dare compare Judge Judy to Leahy...
I love it!
Says I've overridden ratings, and press info. Playboy and other channels. I am not going to press info.
Turner is very good. A lot of damage was done by Congress during Vietnam!!!!
Hatch: The Feingold resolution's conclusion that the president should be punished by censure because he broke the law. The FISA act trumps the president's authority, according to resolution. If this is arguable, then the censure fails.
keep the updates for us cubbie bound tgif crowd...
Does anyone else have Direct TV?
Your lucky day??
That's beyond bizarre.
and the man named Mr. Turner just bitchslapped all those who would criticize the actions Bush took on wiretaps.
I love the sound of bitchslaps in the morning!
Would never ever ever ever do that.
LOL
Why can't Vermont leave the union???
This is Direct TV
DU is imploding!!
Schmidt: Presidents know their authority can't be constrained to get foreign intelligence. We're talking about a foreign power that has attacked in this country.
It's the strongest possible case and it's long standing that the president has authority.
Even if that's wrong, it still is an argument that serious legal scholars can make and to say the president should be censured because of the legal advice he got is wrong.
