Wag the Gonzo

by JohnHuang2

Mahdi punk al-Sadr high-tailed it to Iran; 700 "fighters" from his mighty Mahdi "army" landed mightily in the slammer; Iraqi forces are reporting for duty; killings in the capital have dropped by 80% since Bush's failed surge began; U.S. military deaths are down by 60%; stores are popping back up everywhere in the capital; bomb-making factories are being raided and shut down; the head honchos of the deadliest car-bomb making networks have been busted; people who split because of the violence are pouring back in; tips on "insurgents" from the locals are way up; corrupt and incompetent Interior Ministry officials have been fired (as a bonus, the fired officials haven't gone crying to Patrick Leahy); an oil revenue-sharing deal is on the way; nearly all the Sunni tribes in Anbar province are now evilly allied with the Great Satan or are doing their own policing. Just exactly as the media didn't predict. Stateside, the Marine Corps reports it's getting the highest reenlistment rate in all its history (yet another sign people are totally against "Bush's war").

In fact, the surge is working so well, the press is diligently not covering it. Too busy sobbing hysterically about 8 fired U.S. prosecutors instead. Everything in the news revolves around Bush's barbarous sacking of these 8 indispensable Abe Lincolns: 'Iran seizes 15 British sailors: Gonzales must resign,' 'Dismissals of U.S. prosecutors ruled improper -- Anna Nicole coroner,' 'North Korea talks to regroup soon -- but Gonzales must resign,' 'Tainted pet food contains rat poison: Link to puppy-hating Gonzales emerges in memos,' 'Did someone kill Houdini? Forensic specialists to exhume Gonzales e-mails,' 'U.S. Attorney firings jolts Sea of Japan with massive quake,' 'Fired U.S. Attorneys found leads pointing to Gonzales in Duke rape case just before firings!!!!!!!'.

Even House passage last Friday of the emergency spinach bill that calls on U.S. troops in Iraq to surrender by a date certain had to compete for coverage with the fired attorneys 'bombshell,' which consists of political appointees possibly being fired for . . . political reasons.

The Los Angeles Times headline read, "Pelosi's gamble on Iraq war bill pays off." Even a cursory reading of the bill shows lots of pay offs. There was the pay off to Rep. Sam Farr of $25 million for his vote. Farr had voted against every Iraq war funding bill until now. There was the pay off to citrus growers: $100 million; the pay off to livestock farmers: $25 million; the pay off to dairy farmers: $283 million; the pay off for peanut storage: $74 million; the pay off to shrimp and fishing industries: $120 million; the pay off to those into "breeding, rearing, or transporting live fish." The add-ons add up to 21 billion bucks, but Democrats, usually big on withdrawal timelines and benchmarks, innocently forgot to set a timeline for farm programs to withdraw from the federal dole. (On the Senate side, Robert Byrd hailed passage of all the pork. Byrd loves white meat.)

Then there was $16 million for redecoration and additional office space for needy Congressmen, and millions more for salaries. And who can blame them? Besides the Iraq war bill to 'end' the Iraq war by funding it, Nancy and the boys have been piling on accomplishments, such as H.R.49, H.R.335, H.R.342, H.R.433, H.R.514, H.R.521, H.R.544 H.R.577. All of these are now law. And all are about renaming post offices. And courthouses.

On the fired attorneys "scandal," Democrats admit there's no 'there' there yet, so Gonzales must resign. Then they plan to have an investigation. The investigation is to unearth the 'there' there which they haven't found because there's a "cover-up" and 'evidence' that there's a "cover-up" is the fact that no 'there' there was found in the 3,000 pages of e-mails released by the Justice Department Friday as part of its notorious "cover-up." The damning lack of evidence of misconduct in the e-mails can only lead to 'suspicion' that Gonzo has something to hide but the only way to find out if Gonzo has something to hide is to waterboard Rove and the gang.

Sen. Leahy complained hysterically that the White House refused his generous offer to haul Rove under oath before the cameras, along with an unlimited number of top officials in a grand show trial, with Democrats to determine what the agenda is. "We're told we can have a closed-door meeting with no transcripts," he huffed, "not under oath, with a limited number of people and the White House to determine what the agenda is. That to me is NOTHING! . . . What we are told we can get is NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING!"

And NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING is about what they have on Bush, Rove, Gonzales or any other evil-doer in the Bush Machine. In fact, regarding Gonzales, the worse you can say about this AG is that he's been AG for 2 years and has yet to gas and Bar-B-Que 80 human beings in some small town. Just as scandalous, he didn't fire all U.S. attorneys as one of his first official acts, as did that icon of integrity Bill Clinton to kill the Whitewater probe in Little Rock.

And that's the problem libbies have with the firings right there. Had all U.S. attorneys been fired indiscriminately, rather than just these 8 morons for lousy work (7 of them refused to prosecute Democrat voter fraud; 3 refused to seek the death penalty; the San Diego gal Carol Lam refused to pursue immigration violations), no problem. It ain't the firings liberals have a problem with, but the discriminate nature of the firings (based on performance). Liberals are totally against discrimination! Liberals loved Stalin because he killed indiscriminately -- 20 million. Libbies adored Mao because he killed indiscriminately -- 55 million. They even have the hots for North Korea -- where everyone starves, to make it fair. No discrimination. (Except for the commie honchos.) Libbies detest Israel because they say Israel 'targets' Palestinians -- discrimination!

If you do the Democrat math, Clinton fires all 93 U.S. attorneys: This equals fairness. All 93 were members of the opposition party: This equals no politics involved. Bush fires attorneys of his own party: This equals politics involved.

Since the Scooter Libby stuff failed to get Rove indicted, Rove's the real target in all this, with Gonzo's resignation as the stepping stone. But with nothing, nothing, nothing in the way of a 'smoking-gun,' nor any hard evidence in the pipeline, I doubt that for Bush's AG it's a case of here today, Gonzo tomorrow.

Anyway, that's...
