the DBM already trying to pick cabinet members they deem "acceptable"

That is exactly what is going on here.

If it wasn't for Brit slapping Jaun around, I wouldn't turn FNS most Sundays.

[eeevil conservative]

Congrats on FIRST place for last week!

YOU ROCK!

;-)

No she's got a smart lawyer who sees that the Libs are looking to set her up in another Fitzboob "perjury trap" and give her the Scooter Libby treatment...and he doesn't want his client railroaded in that same manner.

Good morning and as always many thanks for the thread - sorry have only just got last week's awards up on last week's thread but it has been crazy this week with dad in hospital and am just off to visit him now so will check in about 8.00pm my time tonight.

[txradioguy]

Howdy EC!

[snugs]

Last week eeevil conservative did the honours in judging - congratulations to the winners - sorry with dad in hospital did not get around to doing the single post awards - will try to pick them up during the week - so look out you might get an unexpected ping.

I haven't read the Yahoo article you site, but I always look at anything by Yahoo and the AP with just a bit of trepidation.

Could be just I refuse to be gullible to the point of a fault.

Yahoo and the AP are believed by some to be the oracle of truth. NOT by me.

Have a good time today - will check in later with update on dad - still no op done yet on broken elbow and hip because he has bowel problems and swollen stomach so they consider not advisable to put under as his breathing is constricted.

[Chuck54]

Could be just I refuse I just refuse to be gullible to the point of a fault.

Rangel readily admits the pork was put in the Surrender Bill to buy the votes of Democrats who refused to back it.

[Lacey]

On Fox Chris W in discussing Rudy just said something like "it's his time in the barrell and all candidates will at some point face tough questions."

Yeah, right. All candidates except Hillary. I'm still waiting for her tough grilling by the press.

[txradioguy]

Bu...bu...but I thought with the Democrat majority....they'd have all the votes they needed???

[Bahbah]

he doesn't want his client railroaded in that same manner.

Exactly! Her lawyer wrote a great letter referring to the poisonous atmosphere on the Judiciary Committee. That was an understatement in my opinion.

[leadpenny]

Yeah right, that was my first thought too . . . they're lying.

Please.

[maica]

And the dems who were against the bill are against ANY funding for this war. The coalition of dems against this war is about 80 members. I wish their names would be listed regularly on any news outlet calling itself a news outlet.

[txradioguy]

No what Chris means is that all REPUBLICAN candidates will face the grilling...Democrat candidates will get tossed softballs.

[txradioguy]

He was just trying to be nice...unlike the Democrats.

[Chuck54]

Yeah right, that was my first thought too . . . they're lying.

Yeah, please.

I believe in trust but verify. Some people, not calling anyone out here, just believe in absolute trust.

The first woman to run on a US presidential ticket has promised her friend Hillary Clinton that she will help her fight Republican "dirty tricks" in the race for the White House.

"The only thing that can stop Hillary becoming the next president would be smears and dirty tricks," said Geraldine Ferraro, the Democrats' losing 1984 vice-presidential candidate. "I've told her I'll go anywhere and speak any time to make sure that doesn't happen."

High-profile women like Geraldine Ferraro are backing Hillary Clinton’s White House bid

She outlined her plans for a display of female solidarity with the Democratic presidential frontrunner last week in an interview in her office overlooking Ground Zero, where the World Trade Centre once stood in lower Manhattan.

Miss Ferraro, 71, now the managing director of a large corporate public relations and consultancy firm, has joined the former US secretary of state Madeleine Albright and Billie Jean King, the former tennis star, in a "rapid rebuttal force" of well-known women on standby to defend and promote Sen Clinton's candidacy.

"We've learned our lessons from 2004," she told The Sunday Telegraph, referring to the so-called Swift Boat campaign when some former Vietnam veterans who served with John Kerry, the Democrats' last White House nominee, questioned the medals he won for valour.
