		<description>&lt;p&gt;“Democratic voters ought to know”  All voters ought to know.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why would they give these telecoms immunity if as Bmaz and others in the know here say the “telecoms all ready have plenty of protection”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does appear that they may behiding their own “complicity and collusion”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hoyer, Pelosi, Reid not looking so good&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;thanks for bringing attention to this.  But somehow it seems pathetic that we get excited by one person out of many being willing to touch the truth just a bit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These are the folks who are supposed to be upholding the law.  Pathetic&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;So how did Feith get away with not showing up?  Are these witnesses volunteering?  Will Chertoff ever testify?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Holy crap, Thad, that’s nasty — and illegal as hell.  Hoyer actually did that???&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What a piece of work.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Heh, the funny part is that it was a pretty thin mea culpa or whatever; damn thin actually, and yet, I like you am thrilled.  Sad.  come over to the new FISA funhouse post when you are caught up here.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;For the first time, there was someone with Bush ties who had heard or watched lies being proffered to the tribunal and who responded ethically to correct the record.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I followed that link all the way on over to the Gavel, which has clips of Levin, Wilkerson, and Nadler (reading a statement that Feith announced only this morning that he wouldn’t show up to testify, after all).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Isn’t it interesting how riveting it is, after seven years, to watch something as seemingly simple to hear a conscientious person speak to the consequences of his actions?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I’ve always thought Steny Hoyer had a used car salesman look about him.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;My mom used to be active in Maryland Democratic politics, back in the late 60’s and early 70’s.  She was a delegate to the by-year “mini-convention” in 1970.  What finally turned her off from politics was Steny Hoyer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She was in his camp at some Maryland Democratic Party convention, and she was given the task of distracting some other delegate, so that he would miss a vote — which she did.  Then, the next day (she says) Hoyer locked her in a hotel room to prevent her from casting a vote on something she was very keen on.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway — that’s just the kind of guy he is, always has been, always will be.  Maryland seems to have more than its share of shysters (most notably Spiro Agnew, but Gov. Mandell of that same era was cut from the same moth-eaten cloth.)&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;The torture picture and widespread complicity has become much clearer in the last couple of days with Haynes poor performance and Levin’s comment.  Perhaps the beast is feeling cornered.  And I observe this with no relish.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
