Hidden Hands
Only the “hidden Hand” can explain what has been going on in Congress for the past seven years. It is obvious to almost all of us has to have been obvious certainly to all, or almost all of the members of both Houses of Congress that preserving the Constitution requires eternal vigilance and that impeachment proceedings should have been initiated against Bush and Cheney before the end of their first year in office. (Not to mention that their should have been impeachments of the Supreme Court Justices that thumbed their nose at the facts, the election statutes, precedent, the Constitution and their oaths of office to steal the 2000 election under the laughable premise of upholding the “Equal protection” clause.)
It is obvious to everyone that Gonzales and now Mukasey should have been urgently impeached as soon as they demonstrated their contempt for the law, the Constitution and Congress as well as for their flagrant violations of their oaths of office and for the obvious, in your face, willful destruction of the Constitution as to render it meaningless. They should not even have been confirmed, as all of this was obvious before their confirmation votes.
Only the hidden hand (secret government) wielding coercion and fear can explain why those of otherwise decent character in Congress and the other branches of government have not acted and will not act now.
Failure to act is too widespread to be from corruption alone.

Anyone have a complete transcript of Delahunt’s questions and Mukasey’s bloviating? Would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Feingold: “Jello is lying.”

Feingold use amendment now.
Also, Harry rambled off the bulk of the agreement for moving ahead. It sounds like Dodd had agreed only to “filibuster” for four hours on Tuesday. If that is the case, I’m a very disappointed person.

Wow. When they said fast votes, they meant it.

Feingold/Dodd is first, it seems.
