Thanks, Hmmm, and all commenters on this subject.

Question: Does this conflict remind anyone of JFK’s stand against the military/CIA/industrialists stand-off about the Vietnam war? You know how that turned out…..

Reference: book: JFK and the Unspeakable, by James W. Douglass. There is also a 58 minute video (very good) of a talk given by the author. I’ll get the link and give it later.

OT Iran sends first home-built satellite into orbit.

“In Washington, State Department spokesman Robert Wood said the satellite programme could ‘possibly lead to the development of ballistic missiles.’”

…and possibly to production of linoleum and possibly growth of giant pistachios and possibly a demonstration of competence.

re Sara Taylor being corrected that her oath to the President was actually to the Constitution.

Per her blogged testimony, she did not acknowledge that she mis-spoke.

That string should be pulled: Did you take an oath to the President? What oath and who administered it?

say,

when are all the u.s. attorneys going to resign becasue there is a new president?

back when the u.s. attorney firings was a big item we were assurred that firing (actually asking for their resignation) u.s. attorneys, all of them, was a routine matter. every president did it we were told.

will our current herd of u.s. A’s be fired when holder is in place?

or was that earlier confident asertion just one more bit of slick republican sophistry?

IANAL, but can Karl talk to Dannehy, give vauge and misleading answers he has to wade through for six months to prove they are asshat, then tell Congess “Hey I can’t talk about that, becauase of other investigations”?

Shouldn’t be. Ralston was gone before the PATRIOT provision was even put into the Patriot Act.

And Ralston is a different figure, different scandal. She was the liaison to the Abramoff/selling government project. Taylor had ties to that, but her role here was in setting up meetings with the NM Republicans who wanted Iglesias fired and making sure they were made happy.

Good idea for Michigan:

I’m curious though, since California is losing so much production to other states, if these will be union shoots.
