LIVE THREAD: SJC hearing on the NSA surveilance program - C-span 1; 9:30 am EST

Posted on 02/06/2006 6:08:53 AM PST by ken5050

Good Monday morning, once again, fellow political jinkies. The NFL season may be over, but the political season inside the Beltway is 24/7/365. So join us, if you can, as those wacky Dems on the Senate Judiciary committee reprise their pitiful efforts to once again smear President Bush and score political points..

He's an enigma, wrapped in a puzzle, and surrounded by mystery. In Texas, we call them pigs in a blanket.

I missed Graham, was on the phone. Didn't hear anything about a fifth column. Did he call them traitors?

Graham, if in a tight, changed parties, he would not be the first. My own Senator Shelby was once a Rat (?) ;-)

Well, he should save his time and breath. McCain will not ever get the nomination to run. The base dislikes him intensely. The states where primary voters can vote for either party are changing their rules so he'll have to count on the base. His wife has been a drug addict. He won't be able to get past the cancer questions as he did the first time he ran. He said that was all behind him and then it recurred. Just from looking at him, I'd say he may be taking some chemo type drugs as we speak. He actually looks like he's on prednisone to me but I'm not a Dr. I've just seen quite a few people who are on it long term and they have that bloated, sickly look.

I swear to you, Jamie Gorelick actually sat in front of a camera and said -- with a straight face -- that the CIA and FBI didn't share information prior to 9/11 -- and that that had to be fixed!

I have to be careful...sometimes my "twitches" just go off without warnin---

THAT Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H! PUTA! Bi***H!

Okay, I'm better now.

The DUmmies are seeing it this way.

jim3775 (1000+ posts) Mon Feb-06-06 05:03 PM Response to Original message 30. From Digby: Graham is putting on an act http://digbysblog.blogspot.com/2006_02_05_digbysblog_ar... "Oh, and don't get excited about Huckleberry Graham's "tough" questions. This is his schtick. Going all the way back to the impeachment hearings, he has done this. He hems and haws in his cornpone way how he's "troubled" by one thing or another until he finally "decides" after much "deliberation" that the Republican line is correct after all and he has no choice but to endorse it."

He MUST be doing this on McCain's behalf...since McCain isn't on this committee.

Turban is "worried" about the rights of the guy who is sueing the NSA to reveal the international conversations he had which they intercepted. Turban says there is nobody for him (Turban) to turn to.

McCain does look unhealthy. He won't ever be president; I just pray he doesn't pull a Perot.

It sounded like Gonzalez was on the verge of telling turdbin that if certain things were told to senators, they couldn't be trusted to not leak to the press, haaa!

That's precisely what it sounded like to me but done very diplomatically.
