Mary 106 – tell us more about the civil suits – who, what, when & where – so many stories so little time! LOL!

Heartfelt thanks to Redd/Jane and all – 48-hours without FDL is maddening – still holding out hope I will get to Las Vegas & working overtime to make it so.

Can you imagine the fun when the civil filings begin?

wrt the pardon-limits question, I’d wondered about the legality of a pardon issued by a president who has become the subject of a House jc inquiry versus a pardon issued prior to a president becoming the subject, etc.

Curious minds wonder, is all.

Even before they had anything concrete, they would splash it all over the airwaves, speculating on the political effect of the rumors, and speculating whether it was responsible for those trashy rags to cover rumors. “We can’t ignore it, it’s ‘out there’.” Mark my words, there won’t be a breath of this in the commercial media unless there is evidence, and they won’t even look.</p> Re: Georgy and Condi sittin’ in a tree: As if we needed any more evidence of Republican media bias, but imagine if there was unsubstantiated gossip hitting the tabloids about say, a Dem horndog prez’s infidelities.
