I got one of those rightwing emails from one of my ex’s gals out in AZ…..forwarded from “CPT Jeffrey S Porter” saying that Obama ignored the soldiers who were lined up to shake his hand in Germany and went on to do his basketball photo-op. Nasty piece of work. I tried to forward it to Obama site to deal with. No luck. That’s what’s on my mind tonight. Tired, so tired. Will any Dem stand up?
Since Harry Reid is bending over for BushCo, will Conyers & Waxman tag team to bring down the House of Corruption Regent Bush ? Conyers mulls perjury charges … from rawstory
Go ahead Keith, say it. Shut the Fuck Up GWB. I certainly won’t arrest you, nor will I throw you off the air. Were MSNBC to act against you, you would be cascaded with offers, many to superior venues. Once again, Go For It Keith.
My sentiments exactly … as surprising as it was to see American democracy get undermined, that astonishing it is to see Congress’s complicity in these crimes …
I don’t know how his position as chair of HJC would suffer if he defied the speaker, but at this stage in his career, I’d like to see him roll the dice.
This is a pretty interesting snip from an email Democrats.com sent out tonight in re impeachment.. As a follow up on last weeks hearings and what to do etc.
So what stands in the way of real impeachment hearings?
1. 228 Democrats (and 199 Republicans) who have not co-sponsored Articles of Impeachment against George Bush. Tell your Representatives to co-sponsor Rep. Kucinich’s 35 Articles of Impeachment: http://democrats.com/35-articles-of-impeachment
2. Key Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee who do not support impeachment.
a. Impeachment Hamlets: Bobby Scott, Zoe Lofgren, and Jerry Nadler believe Bush committed impeachable offfenses, but they are terrified to support impeachment. Call them to find out why they can’t make up their minds: http://www.causecaller.com/wik.....nt_Hamlets
b. AWOL Democrats: These members showed their contempt for the Constitution (and their constituents) by not even attending the July 25 hearing: Howard Berman, Rick Boucher, Artur Davis, Bill Delahunt, Luis Gutierrez, Linda Sanchez, Betty Sutton, Maxine Waters, Anthony Weiner. Call them to find out why they failed to do their jobs - and when they will support impeachment: http://www.causecaller.com/wik.....hment_AWOL
c. Impeachment opponents: Adam Schiff, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and Mel Watt believe none of Bush’s High Crimes are impeachable. Call them to find out why they have betrayed their Oath of Office: http://www.causecaller.com/wik....._Opponents
3. House Democratic “Leaders” who oppose impeachment: Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, Caucus Chair Rahm Emanuel, Whip Jim Clyburn, and DCCC chair Chris Van Hollen believe impeachment would hurt Democrats in November. Call them to say serious impeachment hearings will expose Republican High Crimes and help Democrats at all levels: http://www.causecaller.com/wik.....peach_Bush
4. The Corporate Media
Despite six hours of in-depth hearings, there was no substantive coverage in any Corporate Media outlet. Call your favorite TV/radio talk shows and write to your favorite newspaper to demand coverage of impeachment.
On Tuesday at 10 pm ET / 7 pm PT, Air America’s Richard Greene will discuss impeachment with Dennis Kucinich. Guests also include Mimi Kennedy and Tim Carpenter of Progressive Democrats of America. Listen online: http://airamerica.com/listen
Conyers must know that there are millions willing to stand with him … seems like they just want to play nice until the election is over … truly sickening !
For Mel, there is no hope. That cowardly spectacle was/is the end. He told the Congress and the country that “I’ll be there for whatever, but don’t count on me for, you know, leadership.”
As many sound banks as there actually are in this country, even today, you’d think it unlikely that so many politicians relatives have been associated with the other kind, wouldn’t you?
I watched bits and pieces of so many hearings last week I couldn’t be sure, but the email said the following (from my copy/paste above).

eureka asked it–what’s on my mind? ten kazillion things…really is one of those rare times when emotions and intellect get to meet. in a massive load that i won’t be able to digest until winter. that’s why i’m not moving to texas with my friends, do you have a ‘digest during winter’ time period?
songs i have been obsessively playing-mary gauthier (go-shay) with marty stuart everyone should hear this song once in their lives, bite the bullet.
Yeah, I saw that and wondered if it could be a typo. Or, if there’s something buried in those bank transactions that’s more understandable, as it were, e.g. some related lending. There so many ways you can go once you get control of the bank. One reason we see so few cases brought in these fraud waves is that the malfeasance is damned hard to trace.
Keith?
woohoo! yeah spencer - yeah KO
evening Es how ya doing??
Got to love KO taking on the Attackerman approach!
Fine, thank you! I was hoping you might sing for us tonight, nahant. *g*

Pick up the pace at the shack!

that and a dime won’t get you a cup of coffee!
Since Harry Reid is bending over for BushCo, will Conyers & Waxman tag team to bring down the House of
CorruptionRegent Bush ? Conyers mulls perjury charges … from rawstorytin roof - rusted!
… as if I need any more incentive to get published … *g*
How ya doin’, CT ?
And then LIVE from Boston
Daym
Hey petro - mulling is what democrats do before they fade away and vote with Chimpy.
Throw somebody in fuckin’ jail and I’ll retract that.
mulls? seven and a half years of thievery and thuggery, a D majority in both houses, and the best Conyers can do is mull?
its pathetic
Snopes is on it. Soldier recants.
Go ahead Keith, say it. Shut the Fuck Up GWB. I certainly won’t arrest you, nor will I throw you off the air. Were MSNBC to act against you, you would be cascaded with offers, many to superior venues. Once again, Go For It Keith.
40 acres and a mull, that’s all we will get out of this Congress
Yep. And now that soldier has drawn his family into it.
a most excellent debunking es
And just cuz…
((( newt )))
My sentiments exactly … as surprising as it was to see American democracy get undermined, that astonishing it is to see Congress’s complicity in these crimes …
Thanks, ES. I forgot about snopes. I’ll be responding to my ‘friend’ in AZ. I come to the Lake for truth — thanks for it!
OH Suz :>)
welcome to the lake fathoms. if ya have any quesions, just ask - the pups are friendly
Of course there is always the end
I’m pretty certain that Conyers isn’t in the bag, but either his power is diminished now that Democrats have the upper hand (WTF???), or he’s tired.
You are welcome.. and good to see you back, dwr.
one of the best songs ever used in a movie….
How many??? Fathoms that is… welcomed to the lake be sure and get wet!
Good on you. Punaise must be laughing.
Welcome!
Hey, do we still dunk the new folks?
Don’t get burn’t
Love that movie… the movie guy here has all the versiuons with the directors cut… one of his favs also…
SOmetimes I think Conyers is just getting to old to fight.. Bless his heart.. but we need fighters in the worst way.
burn one down?
I don’t know how his position as chair of HJC would suffer if he defied the speaker, but at this stage in his career, I’d like to see him roll the dice.

So what stands in the way of real impeachment hearings?
When the Sun refused to shine and get outs Iraq
same here…
I got that one also ES… I just hope they do Impeach them all not just BUSH!
And I think Democrats.com borrowed an idea of mine off of our last FDL name the PAC thread.
They started using Aggressive Progressives in emails just a few days later.
Great roundup!
Pardon me, North Carlolinians, but is Mel Watt the weakest critter ever from the hearing last week? Wow, he was just plain lame.
Oh pAlease
Man, at this point I just want to see them impeach a janitor to get the damn impeachment juices flowing properly. /s
pro*ac made me stay
This is what we need
*smacks head*
yeah, what was I thinking…
Talk about clueless, Mel.. and I don’t think he would care if Cheney shot him in the face.
I was furious, watching him masquerade as a legislator. But truly, he’s just an emblem.
yeah just so we don’t wait A Million Years…I just can’t wait that long….
I don’t know.. he’s a part of the problem if he doesn’t sign on at this point. I mean, come on!
Conyers must know that there are millions willing to stand with him … seems like they just want to play nice until the election is over … truly sickening !
For Mel, there is no hope. That cowardly spectacle was/is the end. He told the Congress and the country that “I’ll be there for whatever, but don’t count on me for, you know, leadership.”
By coincidence, DWR1 I was reading this on snopes earlier tonight about that Porter guy
It is like the popularity of Democrats in November 2006 never happened.
Poof!
And why wasn’t Maxine at the hearing last week? That’s just not right.
More Bushco indictments
Oh, and Jimmie Speeris, Aisle of View
And I see someone else pointed out the snopes.
Hey Mommybrain!
It’s like the only thing they remember to do is to submit …
Finally!!
Oh … oh, you said mull … Never mind8]
Man Oh man the YouTubes is being destroyed… several of my songs on my play lists are no longer available due to legal issues…shit @#@$%@#$&*(%^$
Hey newton! How’s it?
Besides needing a Val*um from getting worked up over the Gummint, splendid!
You?
One of MY fav Stones tunes . . . really a great one.
Thanks!
Andrew McCain
heads for the hills!o!resigns from bank boards for personal reasons.As many sound banks as there actually are in this country, even today, you’d think it unlikely that so many politicians relatives have been associated with the other kind, wouldn’t you?
Yeah, but did you see what his stock is worth? Punked!
*evil grin, rubs hands together menacingly*
My all TIME favorite stones recording… and the words ring true… so enjoy while you can..
I have a quibble with that, Maxine Waters did ask questions at the hearing!
So Live for Today
I missed her, too.
6 hours is a bit long for me, so I bailed at a crucial moment I guess.
Splendid, thanks. Niece on last two days of visit, we are shopping and doing girly things that Sprout doesn’t care to. Having fun.
