Is he going to indict Scooter Libby again? Seriously, putting Fitzgerald on the case and expecting any significant result is a waste of time. He’ll probably wind up indicting Republicans.

That being said, I wonder if ACORN black-mailed Pelosi/Reid to put that money in the bailout bill for ACORN. It just seemed like such a bone-headed, stupid thing for them to do and bound to cause the Dems much embarrassment.

Also consider that they have taken hubris to a new level.

I’m certain you meant that figuratively. But it wouldn’t hurt to clarify. — FRegards ....

RICO should be applied to MSM and ACLU.

Well, I guess it remains to be seen, but I think if she HAD gone along with the Dems during the Primary we might have seen a different result in Denver, honestly. Her stance during the Primary regarding the war didn’t help her. Unless she believed there was a good reason for NOT calling the troops home immediately why the change of heart? I don’t know, I guess I just try to hard to see the good in everyone. I think Hillary is just as deluded as some of the younger folks who still think socialism “could work”. But, I do think she still has a patriotic vein in her somewhere - despite her love for socialism. She couldn’t have made it so far personally in any other place.

I’m not going to sit her and defend all of her actions — I don’t like her enough to bother, frankly! LOL But, where we stand right now, at this moment in time, she and her supporters ARE on the side of the country vs. Obama.

Oh yeah. I got that.

I was saying that hatred of the enemy comes natural to me like breathing air. And an enemy is not something forgotten or forgiven.

It might be because I’m “pre-nintendo”.

She’s slippery as fresh cat yak on linoleum and a lefties lefty, but I don’t think she hates America.

Exactly why I wish she was the Democratic nominee not Obama.

Jerome Corsi was on Hannity yesterday and says he’s in possession of emails that prove collusion between Obama and his top aides with Odinga planning the campaign and indicating that Obama was aware of the plan to cast doubt upon the election and incite violence.

Obama may have played a role in that violence.

Standard operating procedure in Illinois. I grew up outside Chicago, but in Cook County, and from a VERY early age it was common knowledge that the Daley Machine controlled EVERYTHING in Chicago/Cook County. The Dems maintain firm control of the political landscape in Illinois. The Southern Illinois Dems (farmers and such) still think the Dems are like the Dems of the “old days” (like pre-1960s). And in Northern Illinois as I said, it was a given that Dems controlled everything from the candidates chosen to the votes cast. Just FYI - Chicago is where the “dead voter” jokes all originated...

“... at this moment in time, she and her supporters ARE on the side of the country vs. Obama.”

Umm.. No.
Her and her supporters are for Hillary uber alles just as much as the Obamatards are for the Chosen One.

Hilary is all about Hillary. All the time, in every way, only about Hillary.

And another Clinton in the POTUS slot wouldn’t be any less destructive than Obama.

Hillary has no honor, no integrity. And no loyalty to anything other than Hillary.

Granted, they do not have the "almost always right all of the time" as does Rush, but more times than not they are on it and many times much before others.

I believe all of us have a mixture of sources from which we draw our views and I find myself wishing there was more time in any given day as many who I would also want to hear overlap in terms of broadcast schedule time. But, what is important is that there are many voices in the new media who are consistently accurate in their presentations.

I think at this point the Clintons would be thrilled with any derailment of the ONE

If Obama wins the Presidency, he also becomes the head of the Dem party. This would shortly be followed by a purge of all Clinton supporters from any position of power or influence within the Party, and their replacement with Obama people.

If Obama wins, the Clintons are done, and the Clintons know it. Their backs are against the wall, and they will do whatever it takes to survive.

Not to mention the early voting takes people out of the 3-4 week news bombshell cycle. It’s just WRONG.

If Obama is elected, Rezko is not going to be pardoned. So, Rezko’s only hope is to provide some evidence. As much I wish otherwise, I don’t see anything happening prior to the election.

I’m convinced Obama is an enemy combatant and needs to be treated as such.

Did you know there are financial documents linking him to Nadhmi Auchi?

Full info here:

http://blog.barofintegrity.us

Nadhmi Auchi co-conspired with fellow Baathist Saddam Hussein in 1959 to assassinate then Prime Minister Abd al-Karim Qasim.

So Obama has monies from the man that financed the regime change in Iraq. I am safely assume he was involved with the fall of Persia too (<—Persia, AKA Iran)
