		<description>&lt;p&gt;dodge and pony? Usually, it is written “dog and pony,” but dodging the truth that is so apparent to everyone but the Friedman unit is quite a show, too.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Lofgren up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She’ll see their clinton and raise NIXON, ’cause she was THERE!  HAH!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Actually uses the pugs’ own snark to skewer them and raise a bit of calming humor with one hand tied behind her back.  How’d she do that?!  Woo Hoo!  She’s a dandy!  Sanchez can’t help herself.  Smirking behind her hand; Cannon clutching his mug firmly to try to keep from reacting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bravo!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;repug Franks AZ: agrees with [everyone on our side] because they’re just brilliant, their words pearls of wisdom.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Has any Dem mentioned that it is already established that a high ranking member of this administration has already been convivted of Perjusry and Obstruction of Justice. The very crimes that this House Committee is investigating. The precendent of this Adminstration has already been proven in a court of law.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-816508&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;dakine01 @ 135&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cannon: WH offered to allow Ms Miers to testify/be interviewed.  (of course, no transcript and not under oath which he fails to mention)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Which sorta makes one wonder how they can invoke Executive Privilege?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How can they allow his aides to discuss things informally and off-the-record when they can’t swear that they are truthful.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It seems really odd that they can discuss privileged information yet can’t do it if they are held to the truth and can fact checked (or the testimony used to establish lies by others?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Didn’t the WH just waive the privilege when the offered to speak behind closed doors?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is a new thread&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Found that out after I tore my eyes from the computer screen and saw I was talking to myself.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Would have been nice if Cohen had actually used the right reference — Rosemary Woods, not Harriet Woods.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And God am I sick of the argument that executive privilege is necessary for the president to get candid advice.  If a presidential advisor is so thin-skinned that he can’t take the heat, what’s he or she doing in the kitchen?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s an invented privilege and as such should be construed in the narrowest possible terms.  Instead, executive privilege has become the ever-expanding mushroom cloud we should fear.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
