No I didn't call Rush. I had to work and I can't call from work. What did Rush say about it? He oughta read that book over the weekend. The author has interviewed everyone who would talk to him and has documentation. Patrick Fitzgerald refused to talk to him.

When the Republican Party calls my husband requesting donations, he has been telling them pretty much the same thing, that they need to stand up to the screeching Democrats. I don't know if the spectre of Her Lordship Hillary Clinton grabbing power will change his mind about that in the upcoming election cycle, but the Gentlemen's Republican Club of RINO's are getting tiresome. - The double standard of justice for the morally challenged or morally handicapped Democrats contrasted with the Republican gentlemen is wearing very thin. There should be a PETITION to President Bush from conservatives requesting that a PARDON be immediately given to Scooter Libby toot sweet. Speaking of LYNCHINGS, this was one if ever there was one. One of the jurors even remarked after the verdict that the ones they really needed to "get" were Cheney and Rove. A rotten to the core verdict from a liberal Democrat jury (oh, don't tell me they'll trot out one of the jury who is a RINO war protestor to soothe our fears that they were really a legal lynch mob). - These things are going to backfire on the libs big time, and the sooner the better.

Ann Colter has more balls than the entire Republican Party.

For proof, read the posts on the Colter threads.

I intentionally omitted Conservatives because there is a difference between Conservative and Republican.

I am reading Levin's book "Men In Black." Highly recommend this book. Every major problem today facing our nation can be tied to a liberal activist judge,, abortion, illegal immigration, crime, voter fraud, you name it.

If a Democrat gets elected in 2008 I think we can rest assured that fitzergerald will get a big time job with the Government.

The President had to know this information from Armitage the same as Fitzgerald did. He should have shut fitzgerald down. Al he had to do was have a Press release and tell the world that Armitage did it and the thing would have been over.

You may want to rethink calling Sen. McCain a coward.

[stockpirate]

I agree and that is why I am not upset with the mid-terms.

Lest take the next election and put in some CONSERVATIVES with balls.

Someone that will fight for the right things.

Rush hadn't heard of it, but knowing Rush he'll investigate. Here's the link from that call:

"We must not fund the current Republican machine anymore. Money is the mother's milk of politics as they say. If we want real leadership to emerge in the once proud Republican party we will have to starve the current leadership".

Hitlery would just love this part.

WWRS..What would Rush say?

[La Enchiladita]

I think we have to work hard at the grass roots to do it, because the RNC has shown in the past few election cycles, they will not throw support behind conservative candidates.

[La Enchiladita]

Just curious: Are you Mr. Conservative?

This is about the jury selection process, Chief. I've heard the last juror, the one who was a neighbor of Russert and who had worked with Woodward at the Washington Post, both witnesses in the trial, was seated because the defense was out of peremptory challenges. I've served on juries many times and know that the trial judge can excuse a juror without a challenge from the prosecution or the defense over information discovered in the voir dire.The judge shouldn't have seated this juror in the beginning. Wondering if this will fly at an appeal.

[Doc-Joe]

Do you have a solution?

That was detailed in the article:

We must not fund the current Republican machine anymore. Money is the mother's milk of politics as they say. If we want real leadership to emerge in the once proud Republican party we will have to starve the current leadership. We must let them know that they cannot come to us the next election cycle and give us conservative platitudes and expect us to march like good little robots and pull the "R" lever. To hell with that. They do not deserve our support.

DO NOT give support to any member of the party until the party declares war on the anti-American trash. They must fear us and our wrath more than they fear unfavorable press or their foursome on the golf course.

I used to be of the mind that withholding support from limpwristed Republican candidates was an example of "cutting off one's nose to spite one's face." I now realize that mindlessly cheerleading or pulling the lever for any generic "R" is what has led us to the current state of affairs. The only way we will ever enact change is to force the hand of our "leadership."

"call to arms"....bump

[SpaceBar]

Levin is deflecting responsibility when he blames the majority of the country's problems on judges. They are in fact due mostly to lawyers. Lawyers file briefs, bring lawsuits, and represent any filth able to pay the retainer. Judges just hear the cases and are the visible, easily identified parts of the entire out of control legal system. But since he's a lawyer he won't tell you that. Reminds me of the joke about the lawyer who left town only to discover on his return that his girlfriend had given birth. When asked why she didn't call so they could get married, she replied that she consulted her parents and decided it would be preferable to have a bastard in the family rather than a lawyer.

99% of what I read here tonight is so true, I've talked to four friends today two are ex career Marines, one is a housewife I've known for 55 years and another is an ex Sheriff commander from Southern California and they feel the same as the people in this blog. Everyone of them feels this country is going to or has gone to hell. Further to find out today that the FBI can break the law with impunity is outrageous. It seems the system is out of control.

[Doc-Joe]

No... I would say something about Mr. Conservative, but you apparently have to check in to rehab for saying the word... Nevermind. I've simply followed his rants since the 2000 election.

[2ThumbsUp]

Before the election, I remember a weekend Fox News commentator saying: "If the Democrats win a majority, expect a return of a 'culture of investigations.'"

I located an article along those lines.

I pray Republicans and Conservative Independents have fully realized we must band together in 2008.

Right Wing Nut House » WHAT IF THE DEMOCRATS WIN?

Would anything good come of a Democratic takeover of the House? Perhaps by 2008, it would make people long for Republicans being back in control – at least, that appears to be one aspect of the so-called Tapscottian strategy (named after Heritage fellow and blogger Mark Tapscott) that gives Republicans a reason to stay home this November. Mark is a very smart fellow, but this is stupid. Without the “culture of corruption” to run against, the rules of incumbency would reassert themselves and even Democrats in marginally Republican districts would be enormously difficult to unseat.

Actually, Republicans would be wiser to run against the “culture of investigations” that the American people are much more likely to tire of – especially when it turns out that most of these investigations will be fishing expeditions that uncover little in the way of real corruption and instead show Democrats to be petty and spiteful politicians. To my mind, that would resonate far more with voters than any grand strategy that envisions Republicans riding to the rescue as Democrats trash the country.

The fact that the reporter juror, a friend of witnesses, has clearly indicated he intends to write a book about the trial, could have some serious impact on the appeal. Was the juror, who has a stated monetary interest in the case, fair and impartial?

He wouldn't sell many books if Libby had gotten off.

[sionnsar]

Good point!

We didn't have to do that in our state party, but by remaining involved and engaged, we replaced the prior liberal "leadership" (in a way sadly -- I really liked and respected some of these folks, though others of their cadre were simply no good at all) with a good solid conservative. Now we need to rally behind him, and turn Washington into a red-blooded American state (for the first time?).
