Let's be accurate. He was to testify about how Obama's, Clinton's and McCain's passport information was illegaly disclosed. No scandal there about Obama's passport itself.

Except that the only passport records supposedly removed were those of 0bozo's. I believe that the passport records were removed specifically because 0bozo NEVER had a U.S. passport until he became a U.S. senator, and the stolen passport records would have revealed that there was no U.S. birth certificate on file, and that he was most likely NOT a U.S. citizen, let along a natural born U.S. citizen.

I don’t care what their politics are, either. It’s their insistence on telling us and their get-in-your-face-about-it-attitude that pisses me off.

Maps of city owned property. One must think a host of folks, (like Scott’s developer pal, Gerald Fogelson), are left holding a pile of crap properties.

Interesting too that Obama made sure he was out of the country when the deed was done. Obama leaves and we get Holder making an announcement that the Gitmo terrorists would be tried in the US too and possibly housed in a minimal security prison in none other than Illinois. It sounds like they will be pouring hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars into the place to turn it into a super max. Something doesn’t smell right with this deal at all. It would be interesting to see who owns the land around this prison, etc.

It is asinine to say that actor’s politics don’t shape the roles they play, it comes out in their scripts and stories all the time. They consciously choose to espouse and promote the drivel of the writers and directors . Many shows and movies are built around the left coast agenda.

I can't stomach the newer Law & Order shows they're so GD preachy. I like the old ones, w/ Lenny.

Fred Thompson told us on the National Review cruise to watch, though, b/c he gets residuals!

I think the daughters went to the “lab” school run by the University of Chicago (a private school, started by John D Rockefeller in 1891), so it isn’t really public. Since both parents worked, directly or indirectly, for UC, it’s not surprising they went there, as faculty/employees’ children get preference.

He apparently fell forward after shooting himself, and the gun was found near the body, the sources say.

Wonder what the excuse will be for his choice of the Chicago River for his ‘suicide’ or why we are to believe he was ‘suicidal’ at all? Where is Fitz? He sure has been laying low of late. Must have been bought off.

Yep! Lou Dobbs reports gun shots at his house. Glen Beck is afraid for his family.
