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

[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..

[Lovergirl]

I don't think it's sad at all. I think it's good for us. LOL. I'm sick to death of President Bush being demonized all of the time. I love when the idiots make fools of themselves.

Biden up.

Biden up.

[Carolinamom]

You're right. It was in 1983. It just seems like only yesterday to me when I think of this good student and really nice guy. Sorry for my mistaken attribution to clinton.

[confederacy of dunces]

Thanks for the ping!

I bet it makes you happy to ensure that I NEVER get any work done. Ah, priorities.

Hot air alert. Turn on the air conditioner.

[processing please hold]

I'm on dial up and I hate graphics on a live thread.

Biden: How will we know when this war is over. (Well, that's a ridiculous question to ask the AG and isn't pertinent to this hearing).

AG: Well, we know it isn't today. LOLOL

[prairiebreeze]

I see I've successfully been absent during Senator "I-let-a-woman-down-in-my-car-and-got-off-scott-free- Kennedy's questioning.

Plugs Biden asks how will we know when this war is over?

Good grief...

Gonzalez tells him we know it isn't over today.

Haa!

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Biden says Roberts damn well better hold secret hearings on this program....

Asking Gonzales how will we know when this War is over....ROFL!

[Peach]

That was a great answer by Gonzales. hehehehe

[conservativebabe]

Biden has got to be kidding.

[Gritty]

Biden - How will we know when this war is over?

Gonzales - when Al Qaeda is destroyed and is no longer a threat. There are also a number of other terrorist groups who share their aims.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Question only makes sense cause he is trying to score political points....

[Pukin Dog]

Thanks to you, I didn't miss a thing. Gonzales now baiting Plugs to change the law if he doesn't like it.

[conservativebabe]

Biden given his laundry list of involvement. Pu-lease!

[Gritty]

Biden (puffing himself up) - I was here when FISA was written...

(who would have guessed???)

[prairiebreeze]

Bet Gonzalez would like to tell Biden something like:

"the war would be over a heck of a lot quicker and with less bloodshed if you Democrats would help us win it instead of trying to bring down a sitting President"
