Mike Gravel coming up on MSNBC. . .whoo hoo, anybody got a big rock?

I’m sorry – I don’t get this?! What?

Search for “Mike Gravel campaign ad” on youtube.

Not only does the GOP line-up look a bunch of galoots from the 1950s (with some multiple marriages to “modernize” it) the difference between the spouses in the D’s and R’s is also quite dramatic. Young women voters are sure to notice.

Hopefully we can have some more enlightened discussion about this in the media this go around. There are many examples of marriages between equals, never mind that the Clinton gender flip will turn things inside out.

If its money laundering, I wonder if it is tied to what the Frankfurter Allemaigne alleged, that our media hasn’t touched a micron, which is an investigation they claim that points to the CIA in effect counterfeiting money to fund black ops away from Congress’s eye and then blaming these “super dollars” on North Korea, that has lead to us getting new currency.

If this is what they are covering up, you can see why the courts and even Democrats like Sylvester Reyes were trying to cover up the FBI report that was leaked about Cunningham a few weeks ago. Acknowledging this story having any legs would be PRETTY explosive:

When is he gonna’ be covered by “Executive Privilege” since the CIA is involved and speaking of Dennis Hastert didn’t he get away with it…spreading the bribery money around…isn’t that why Sibel Edmonds is gagged…and aren’t the 2 connected and if it became
public wouldn’t we demand replacing the State department and many in the CIA as well as many in the congress? Oh do they ever want to keep a lid on this.

Kontogiannis is saying, “ok pal, you want to bust me then you’re gonna be busting half of your government.”

The secret hearing is to determine how far the government prosecution wants to go with this. Should be interesting because the timing is perfect. Which USA made his deal? Carol Lam, or her acting replacement? I’m guessing that her replacement, Karen Hewitt, might have had something to do with it.

It’s also interesting to look at this article and note that her husband suddenly is part of the high tech surveillance industry too, now that he’s signed on with ICx Technologies which does work for Homeland Security, Wal-Mart, etc… Hmm…

In the timeless words of Plato: “Who will guard the guardians?”

Or in this case: “Who will prosecute the prosecutors’ boss?”

Which is precisely why the Constitution gives the Congress impeachment powers. But they are not using those powers because they are viewing this in purely political terms.

And the terms in which they are viewing it are political suicide. They are losing the public’s respect for their integrity and competence. The RNC is portraying them as weak, ineffective bumblers focused on seeking partisan advantage at every turn. And, by God, the liberal base of the Democratic party is seeing them in exactly that same way but for different reasons.

Last weekend the congressional democrats effectively gave Karl Rove and the RNC free reign to use the NSA for opposition research through the 2008 elections. They turned the NSA over the same Attorney General Gonzales who put the entire staff of the DoJ at the RNC’s disposal.

On the theory that accountability at the top has to start somewhere? Of course you’re right, but I don’t see it happening.

“There is a very real possibility that Alberto Gonzales has broken the law. Should he be held accountable?”

Hmm, maybe not. Seems the GZ is quite small.
