Plame/Wilson obliterated the House Group and its "conclusions" yesterday -- And the "person in pink"
was a trannie, wuddenit?
Also, and I know NTodd would want me to correct this, they seem to hav misspelled "Duncan Hack" in that LA Times article.
jac, Abu is useful in several ways, as you point out. He's also taking some of the heat off Cheney whose treachery would otherwise make him the target for a lot of impeachment wish lists.
And the "person in pink" was a trannie, wuddenit?
I certainly hope so.
Someone last night posted that the only reason Abu is still around is that Schumer predicted he'd be gone in a matter of days and w doesn't want Schumer to be right. Sounds about par for the course.

Who the hell are you people to try to tell President George Walker Bush what to do? He was selected by G-d to be the supreme emporer of Amerika, and to conquer the world in the glorious name of the Lord of all Creation. And President Bush is the right man for that difficult job. Pay no attention to what a bunch of satan worshipping dirty smelly hippies whispers in you ear, George. Just listen to the G-d voice.

AP and the NYT today once again making great strides in destroying their credibility by burying and then dismissing Plame's testimony:
Plame Sheds Little Light in Leak Case
"Plame repeatedly described herself as a covert operative, a term that has multiple meanings. Plame said she worked undercover and traveled abroad on secret missions for the CIA.
But the word ''covert'' also has a legal definition requiring recent foreign service by the person and active efforts to keep his or her identity secret."
http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/...k- Congress.html
...and all they had to do was ignore this:
"Plame's testimony on the covert nature of her job was buttressed by a statement that Waxman read at the hearing's opening which, he said, was approved by Gen. Michael V. Hayden, the CIA's director. The statement said that Plame worked in a covert capacity at the time of Novak's column and that her employment status was classified under an executive order."
Well, the sun just came out, so I better go shovel some snow.

We can't all be NTodds, and that's probably a good thing.
Bush didn't seem to be too loyal with Harriet Miers. It seems to me she was asked to resign when the Dems took over Congress because the WH powers believed she couldn't handle the pressure that investigations would bring.
sdf, it's not their intention, but AP did get something right, it's not New information, it's just the the rightwing has been trying to drown out the facts so hard that it seems unfamiliar to see them emerge. Plame was covert. However, behind all of that, the story about the yellow cake being cooked up is being drownded.

You're right, Ruth, but as you say it's not their intention. The implication is ... yawnwhocaresnothingtoseeherefolks.
Of course, then it gets put on page one anyways, so who knows.
But bully to Waxman, again, and I hope this is just the beginning. Can't wait for him to note where Toensing, um, "introduced inaccuracies" into her testimony, or however he phrased it.
Anyone who loves this country wants Gonzales gone at once. The evil part of me would be just as glad to see Gonzales politically emasculated and hung around Bush's neck like an albatross.
Gonzales does nothing but shame all associated with him. If we could divorce him from America and keep him wedded to Bush, it might not be a bad thing.
Gonzales is gonna be gone. The only issue is when.
And after Gonzales, maybe by May, Rove joins him.

"So what if it's risky? It's the right thing to do," said Richardson, one of the candidates in the crowded 2008 field. "What we're talking about is 160 people in deep pain. It only affects them."

I should point out, on behalf of my species, that many of us do NOT dig for the sake of digging. I, for example, like to start the holes for Two Legs, so that gardening in the heavy soils of our farmlet is a little easier. Equally, I maintain small pantries thruout the area, where I like to place anything I may like to eat a little later - underground storage really enhances the taste of rawhide chewy things! Not so much, the biscuits tho. Dig for the sake of digging? That's something puppies and Golden Retrievers do.

...over on HuffPo I find less and less reason to read the innanity, and I finally cut the cord because I saw a headline that read something about "CIA Glam" whatever and spent the lede paragraphs talking about Plame's hottiness...not that's she's not, but in journalism, you shouldn't bury the lede under a dye job...
anyway, so, I posted a comment saying something of the same, but added...and why don't you go the full Variety and write "Boffo blond CIA chick begins nix of Machiavelli hicks"
...and that was at least three hours ago and the post has never appeared. LOL. I despise the Nora Ephroning of the news so I don't need to go there anyway.
And so, does that "journalist" over at HuffPo indicate the take by the American newspeakedia? Who gives a fuck what Plame says, as long as she says it as a blonde? hubba hubba. nudge nudge, say no more.

"you won't catch me deep in the water"
WOOHOO!
Oops, I got Scooter Libby and Valerie Plame mixed up. We trolls have never seen live grownups, so you'll have to excuse us.
Happy birthday, S.P., the blogoshere's most famous baby! Hugs and kisses!
Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone!
Has anyone heard of the new comic book by Warren Ellis, Black Summer?
Here's an interview with Warren Ellis at the place that printed it.

blogosphere, darn it. I haven't been into the green beer, although it sounds like it.
Plum--caught some of your program, enjoyed hearing your plummy voice and listening to the music.
I think the golden is the best dog ever.....until you let them out the door. Oh, look over there, a mud puddle.
bluesman
heh, the firt time i brought my lab to the beach, she didn't even dip her toe in the water first, she just jumped in. startled me.
Plame-Wilson testified, under oath, to things about which she has first-hand knowledge. Toensig was there to... testify to other people's testimony and explain that when she says 'covert' she means 'covert*'?
That, to me, encapsulates the value of each as a witness.
i like MOJO, Steve, but its my mate Roger's magazine who buys it religiously. The recent issue on Joy Division was very good.
Being in far away climes, exotic and warm, is great.
Getting there sucks.
I'm flying out of Baltimore this evening to go to Mendoza, Argentina via Dallas and Santiago and it promises to be more of an adventure than I enjoy, given the delays and back-ups leftover from yesterday.
The only terrorists I worry about are the ones manning the airline ticket counters... and they give me the cold sweats.
I'm taking a deep breath and a couple of useful phone numbers, a lot of reading material, and hoping for the best.
As usual, W4O has nothing. When are the Wilsons being indicted?
Morning, Moonbats.
From a purely political perspective, it seems to me that the best of all possible worlds for the Democrats is for Bush to dig in his heels, announce that he's not firing Gonzales, and then be forced after a week or so to fire him. Course, I remember before the election when no way was he going to fire Rumsfeld.
Victoria Toecheese is a Cheney. Big Time.
Oh well, despite the fact that most of America laughed their asses off at the stupidity that came out of my mouth yesterday, at least I have the MSM and the dopes on the left who will pretend I have any credibility.
I had the hardest time keeping a straight face when I said that at yesterday's show tri-...er, I mean hearing.
Too busy crying about the implosion of the Bush administration, little man?
We're laughing, too.
At dumbass twits like you.
Um, so this can't be good:

gonxales is the man for the job. he's got the skin type to keep the diversitycommunists away, the lapdog luxurious hair for the hollywoodmunists, the yes sir right away sir loyalty and maybe he's the boyfriend now that JimmyJeff is gone. If that's not the right man for the job, I don't know Right.
...and he's probably got the best cocaine connections.

Attention pet owners
Pet food recall: Iams, Eukanuba, others.
"One of North America's biggest manufacturers of pet food issued a massive recall yesterday after reports of fatal kidney failure among animals eating their products."
How the hell am I suppose to know if I was covert...I'm not a lawyer, dammit.

Val, take your shitpile of unreality and go home, dear. Nobody here gives a darn what you say.

Good luck, SteveLG. Try to think about the good time you'll have once you get there. Hopefully, the trip won't be too painful.
Smart, funny, deeply sexy.

I'm happy to hear that.
Gee, the trolls are up early on Saturday.
Oh well, despite the fact that 70% of the American people believe Valerie and only the lunatic fringe has any faith in Bush or Gonzales, I will continue my virtual blowjob of all things Republican even after the jails are full of my party's traitors and liars. Because i'm just stupid enough to believe serial liars who rip me off every day, in every way.

it's Sean Patrick birthday today? He was really born on St-Pat's???

No, I do. It's funny how the dopes on the left and the MSM are ignoring my drug use.
Last week he described 300 as "more violent than Apocalypto and twice as stupid."
Heh.

did he really?
if you drew parallel to today, wouldn't we be the persians? in the role of the invading hoard.
Another article about Black Summer.
"Superhero Kills the President
By Alex Knapp
Graphic novelist extraordinaire Warren Ellis’s newest series, Black Summer, has a great chance of being one of the most talked about comics in awhile. After all, the premise is that a superhero decides that the President of the United States is a criminal. And so the superhero kills him.
“He’s been asking himself the question that informs the book: where do you draw the line? If you’re totally committed to the idea of covering your face and taking on a fake name and standing outside the law in order to fight for justice – where do you stop? Crime pervades society. We’re all aware of corporations that behave in a criminal manner. Is that as far as you go?
“If, in fact, your perspective is such that you believe your President to have prosecuted an illegal war and thereby caused the deaths of thousands of people – isn’t that a crime? Do you let that pass?”
“Because, to make it clear: John Horus, a man with the personal destructive capability of a fleet of Apache helicopters, walked into the Oval Office and killed the President.”
Ellis has certainly handled similar themes in his work before, especially in The Authority and his magnum opus political work Transmetropolitan (both of which I recommend), but this is probably taking some of the concepts even more over the top than Ellis usually does–and that’s saying something. Still, if it’s done right (and not just exploiting the premise for shock value–which Ellis is certainly capable of), this promises to be an interesting examination of some of the premises that underly superhero vigilantism in particular, and broader sociopolitical questions in general. After all, in a broader ethical sense, is there a difference between a superhero, acting outside the due process of law, killing a President he believes to be a criminal any different than a country, arguably acting outside the law, invading another country that it believes to be a threat? Maybe. But it’s certainly an interesting avenue for speculation."

It must be pretty sad for you to be an overweight 30-something with cheetoes stuck in his beard pretending to be a beautiful blonde. Is that what you fantasise about when you're wanking to tranny porn?
What's sad is that Gonzales wasn't fired for this.

Thank you. I tend to have severe "connection anxiety" when I travel (what little OCD I have all comes front and center when I'm flying), but this time I think there are too many wild cards even to worry about.
And, yeah... it'll be a nice visit, whenever I get there.
On the one hand you've got Plame-Wilson, and the other you've got the administration who had a duty to conduct an internal investigation and pursue administrative sanctions against the leaker, and said publicly it would be conducted, but didn't.
The relative credibility of these parties is pretty cut and dry.
ok, who is playing war4oil?
The recent issue on Joy Division was very good.

Yep. Should be an interesting movie.
the president should get rid of that wetback anyway, and put a white man in that office
Victoria Toecheese was there to remind us that Goldwater's cock was extremely exciting to her, and that as a young female she was just as good as Monica.... and that the last blow job given to a republican was given by her.

War 4 Oil
If you're going to be offensive, can you at least try and be funny?
And happy B'day S.P. at 4:45. Exactly.

Any link for an article for the plastics issue mentioned by Kyra Phillips?

If it's not the dogs and cats, it's the kids.

This intransigence should not be mistaken for loyalty. Loyalty is a one-way street for the Shrub -- bottom up (double entendre intended). It is instead simply that the Child-King cannot abide being told what to do by anyone other than Deadeye Dick. I suspect that since Bush does take his marching orders from Cheney, he insists upon presenting a front to the world that he will never cave to pressure. And so you have these episodic personnel constipations. Meanwhile Cheney and Abrams are finishing up the selection of bombing targets in Iran . . .
The "Valerie" troll have trouble conceiving that someone 'walking by an office' could suggest something involving work. I can unnerstand his problem with that. You are not allowed to recommend new ideas about cooking when you are cooking the fries and burgers at those chain restaurants. And they don't have "offices" there either. So it must have all sounded like a con job to him.
I had the hardest time keeping a straight face when I said that at yesterday's show tri-...er, I mean hearing.
So the fuck what? Does that change the fact that her cover was completely blown through maliciousness, illegal behavior and/or total fuckwitted incompetence?
Nah, how 'bout they just announce that they're forming an Attorney General Study Group, and forget to do it...

i can't even figure out what he's trying to say there, his logic is so tortured.
White House Security Chief Reveals -- No Probe of Plame Leak There
Knodell said he had "no" conversations whatsoever with the president, vice president, Karl Rove or anyone about the leak.
Asked by chairman Rep. Henry Waxman if he knew this was an issue of concern, he said "yes." Asked if he learned this from the White House or the press, he said, "through the press."
Knodell testified that those who had participated in the leaking of classified information were required to own up to this and he was not aware that anyone, including Karl Rove, had done that.
http://
www.editorandpublisher.co...t_id=1003559300
knodell is supposed to get back to Waxman about rove's security clearance Can't wait for that.
You can bet rove shit his pants when dems took over the house and senate.

Valerie | 03.17.07 - 9:28 am
I am one of the twenty something percent that have unquestioned faith in anything President Bush does.
I get lost in this Plame thing sometimes and find myself concluding that Saddam did indeed have nuclear weapons and forget that the question of how Wilson got there is irrelevant.
It's a little unclear in my mind but despite the fact that Iraq attacked us on 9-11 we were working on plans to invade Iraq much earlier than 9-11.
What was that you say about the August 6 Presidential Briefing Bulletin?
Could Warren Ellis be the first citizen declared an enemy combatant by BushBoy who is not in any way involved in a terrorist (real or alleged) organization?
I blow my nose on Haloscan.

plantsman
The problem (as yet unidentified) is in 2 plants in the US. Those brands may not have been manufactured in those plants.
"The recall is limited to "cuts and gravy" style pet food in cans and pouches manufactured at two of the Fund's United States facilities. These products are both manufactured and sold under private-label and are
contract-manufactured for some national brands....
The Fund has, however, discovered that timing of the production associated with these complaints, coincides with the introduction of an ingredient from a new supplier. The Fund stopped using this ingredient shortly after this discovery and production since then has been undertaken using ingredients from another source."
The Top 10 Reasons Gonzales Must Go:
1. Lying Under Oath
2. Purging Prosecutors
3. Misusing the Patriot Act's National Security Letters
4. Authorizing Illegal NSA Domestic Surveillance
5. Enabling John Yoo and Unchecked Presidential War Powers
6. Rendering the Geneva Conventions "Quaint"
7. Supporting Military Commissions and the End of Habeas Corpus
8. Blessing Unprecedented Expansion of Presidential Signing Statements
9. Facilitating a CIA Leak Cover-Up
10. Gutting Minority Voting Rights
