[pollyannaish]

"pollyannaish" tells me all I need to know...

Brits panel was WRONG last night!....and I am loving it!

Indeed. Along with many here including my own self. ;o)

[Howlin]

Thanks.

[Mo1]

I knew she was back in the US .. but didn't know she was the new FOX DoD correspondent

hmmmmmmm

[Pukin Dog]

The news is good in MANY ways.

You know the Dems will keep fighting to get Rove under oath, but the fight will distract the Dems from doing much else.

As for my lurker status, I'll always chime in when the naysayers are forced back into their ratholes.

Funny, I dont see many of them on this thread......

[pollyannaish]

He will NOT let Rove, Miers and others on his staff be sworn in

You can't say the man doesn't learn from experience.

UGh...Bret Baier just said that the reports that the White House was looking around for a replacement is wrong...but PRIVATELY White House aides are saying "if this issue doesn't die down soon...then Gonzalez may have to go"...

Now..I don't know WHO those aides are...or if this is being made up...but it certainly doesn't help fight the dems if they are already saying Gonzalez could STILL be kicked out!!

Brit Hume just asked Bret if he didn't wait TOO LONG to make this case...and Bret said that the White House admits it waited too long.

[colorado tanker]

Ugh...Judge Napalitano..just said that Bush CAN'T keep Rove and them from having to submit to subpoenas...even if it goes to the Supreme Court..

So far as I know every President has claimed executive privilege as to the White House staff with few exceptions and Congress has generally respected that. Napalitano doesn't know that White House staff, as distinct from Cabinet and department officials, generally do not testify before Congress?

[Howlin]

I don't think they do either.

Matthews is saying that Bush has admitted that the appointments were political..............LOL.

[Peach]

I don't know the answer to any of that, Ken; I haven't watched much FNC and hadn't even noticed she was back. hmmmm

[daybreakcoming]

Savage fan?? Need to back slowly away from a steady dose of that. Not healthy for your b/p.

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

I don't care if it was prepared or not, it's about time Dubya finally lit into the RATS like they've strongly deserved. I'm proud of him. ;^)

[WalterSkinner]

I told you we are going to bomb Iran soon...

..or Israel is...

[Howlin]

I know!

[pollyannaish]

LOL. Don't get me started. Unfortunately, I value the constitution more than I value the President.

Demcorats must see Karl Rove in their nightmares.

Back to the drawing board --- this is all about wanting to grill Rove under oath.
