Oh, thanks for sharing that. I am days late and would have missed this all together had it not been for a link from a link… That would have been a terrible loss. I laughed and laughed and… NTodd took the “so when did you stop beating your wife?” shtick to new heights.

I like how the “See what Joe has done for you”, where you click on the counties — TURNS THEM RED — how appropriate

But, but I thought it was Dan himself that said Lieberman beat his wife…

Now I’m all confused…I thought it was Dan beating up Liebermans wife….

My money’s on Hadassah beating Joey. She’s the hardest thing I ever saw with 2 “X” chromosomes.

Of course, maybe Joe’s into that sort of thing?

TRex, this is like hunting with Dick Cheney, if you’re Dick Cheney. All I can think of, after reading the excerpt you put up, is “canned hunt . . . canned hunt . . .” There are some creative folks, though, who are doing their best to make it interesting.

…Although I must admit that even through my alcoholic haze, I feel a twinge of guilt at the thought of taking aim at a dumb, defenseless Dangerstein, who’s been released into the confines of a box on the internet for my snarking pleasure.

I’m betting 10 days–tops–before the “82nd Chairborne” sends in reinforcements and an all-out flamewar ensues.

[…] Stanley came to exactly the same conclusions about 9/11 that the authors of “The Path to 9/11″ came to – and want all of America to come to: it’s really Clinton’s fault, facts be damned. This is a case in point as to why this fictional account of the defining event of this century of American life should not be subject to dramatization along partisan political lines. I think it’s time for a Blogger Ethics Panel to sort out how bloggers reporters are reaching their conclusions about what happened on 9/11. Something tells me that Richard Clarke, Sandy Berger and Richard Ben-Veniste would be the right people to set the record that ABC has so distorted straight. […]

TSF,

He was sworn in. That’s why he took the 5th…

Took the fifth? I hope Justice is all over that.

Imm - I think meta and lhp have a good point. OTOH, I think you’ll get a Gonzales-ey Alito-ey answer (no one is above the law - but glossing over the, but hey, that Marbury v. Madison thing is soooooo pre9/11 thinking, we follow the law - right it and interpret it, all inhouse.)

And with torture you’ll get the “we don’t torture” answer.

Maybe you should ask for a demo of waterboarding. Mueller can show how it’s not biggie - maybe he’ll even let you wander the halls stripping and hooding agents?

Seriously- FBI is in the crappiest situation of all. Not an ez job in this admin.

imm, I appreciate the delicate nature of making an inquiry like that. But your curiosity is rich with all that we have witnessed and not been able to understand, so the question is an honest one. I hope you’ll be able to let us know the response. Good luck!
