Incoming Democratic committee chairmen say they will hold a series of hearings and investigations early next year to build the case for their call for a phased withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq and for possible action against defense contractors found to have wasted billions in federal funds.
The emerging plans to grill administration officials on the conduct of the war are part of a pledge for more aggressive congressional oversight on issues such as prewar intelligence, prisoner treatment at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay, and the government's use of warrantless wiretaps.
LOL
Except the terrorists.....they think leaving them alone will make them go away.
This is where Gonzales does his job and gets a few (Nelson, Richardson, Kerry) under the Logan Act.
And possibly Jay Rockefeller as well.
Yes, this week global warming was back as we FReeped in shirt sleeves only adding a jacket later in the evening. The forecast for tomorrow is sunny and 72 and 75 on Monday.
(is that a word)
LOL! Well, it IS a word, but.....
chat·ter·er noun 1. a person who chatters; a chatterbox. 2. any of several passerine birds having a chattering cry, as certain waxwings and cotingas.
Could you ping me when that happens? ;*)
The moonbats have a gavel now. They are likely to try and impeach the President. This is going to be ugly, funny, but ugly.
Don'tcha just love when a plan comes together? :-)
Quite a few got elected playing "Blue Dog" Democrats... They'll have to show if they are "with us or against us", and that will play in next elections. Of course, most of them will not be let anywhere near the committee posts, but that should also play in next elections (if GOP will wise up and explain the importance of numbers and addition and subtraction of letters R and D in Congressional mathematics). My fervent hope is that in the Senate they can flip Ben Nelson of NE from "blue D" to "red R", to get control of Senate and set a fine example for House members to follow.
"'Moonbats' (usually spelled with only two o's) are sanity-deprived radical leftists such as Cindy Sheehan. A 'barking moonbat' is a shade less sane than a plain 'moonbat'."
A Leftist, BTW, is shade more insane than a Liberal. Liberals typically believe in our system of democracy and want to 'reform' it. Leftists want to tear everything to establish communism or anarchism or multiculturalism or whatever their kink of the moment may be."
THANK YOU very much for these definititions. I've asked others before, but never received such great descriptions! I think I had the general idea given the nature of the words, but wasn't completely sure.
Anyway, thank you!

I could never have said it better!!!

I think this is the real reason Donald Rumsfeld quit (and the President agreed). He would have been called/subpoenaed over to the Hill constantly. He would have had no time for SecDef work.
Democrats’ New Intelligence Chairman Needs a Crash Course on al Qaeda
"Thats OK. Their ridiculous little panels and "investigations" will keep them busy and out of trouble."
and waste a hell of alot of taxpayers money and time for other actions that SHOULD be taken
Just for my education, plese define these terms for me. Thank you!
In case no one's helped you with this yet, try this. Google Democratic Underground or DailyKos. Look at the threads you will routinely find over there. Follow some of the links you will see on those websites. Alice in Wonderland would need heavy doses of Clozapine after going through some of the thought processes you will find over there.
Just wait until the cum bye ya crowd gets a look at Henry
Waxman. He is one of the nastiest men on the planet. The ADL will shiver, too. antisemitism will go up a notch if he is on TV all of the time.
I'll chance it and go there some time this week. Please pray for me!

Odd...at the same time other leading Rats are talking about adding MORE troops. The dems only hate wars they are not in charge of. The hell with our country's security needs.
They're just, "doing the jobs Islamist fanatics can't do."
