    possibly, but were I the judge I'd throw that out of court. She was a desk bound analyst, not an under cover operative. Hardly worth debating but it will be interesting to watch it play out.

    That would have been the argument they should've advanced right away, but instead they appear to have entered into a conspiracy to hide the truth from the special prosecutor (as well as the public, but that's par for the course, regardless of whose in office.)

        Except that we are not talking about blow jobs now. We are talking about national defense. There is a lot more on the line. If the dems win, there will be no reason to take the chance on suddenly finding themselves vulnerable to even more charges of being soft on protecting the nation. If they put the Bush administration of trial for how it has conducted its military efforts, and that is followed by another major terrorist attack, what do they do? If Bush's efforts were responsible for crippling terrorist activities, they won't be able to use them. Public perception is everything.

        Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

        I certainly agree with that last thought, but along those lines, I think the Dems will be eager, maybe even anxious, to find all the justifications for getting out of Iraq that they can. The more of a stink they can raise about how the war was entered into and/or conducted, the more righteous they can appear in closing it down.

              I actually hope you're correct, but I honestly believe most of them are too smart to do that. I'm at the point of being willing to accept harm to my country in order to inflict damage to my real enemy - the left. But then, they have been doing the same thing, so who cares? They have been very successful at obfuscating their true agenda for a long time now, but if they want to voluntarily end the farce, thats fine by me.

                        Fine by me. There is nothing I want more than for the democrat party to take responsibility for rendering the commaner in chief impotent to defend the nation.

                        But can the NATION afford that? Sure, that would politically help the Republican Party ... if the nation survives long enough for it all to be worked out.

                            Excellent. 'bout damn time. BTW, the reason it was buried is because, once again, the media is trying to protect the democrats. They well know that an overt leftist attack on the commander in chief that results in no convictions of any kind (because nothing wrong was done) would not only expose them for what they really are, but it would also cripple any future democrat president who needs to do exactly the same thing. Your usefullness to your party is already at an end. You are now an unnecessary leftist dupe. They are now going to do evreything they can to pretend that wackos like you don't exist.

                            :laugh: :laugh: You really are delusional. The press doesn't report Kucinich to protect the democrats. The press was/is the "deferential, complicit enablers" of Bush administration "propaganda," in support of the war to give Democrats cover for their earlier support of the war. You really believe that, and I pity you for it. You really have become the marxist you profess to hate. X|

                                Somehow this got buried by the *cough* liberal media *cough* Kucinich brings impeachment charges against Bush[^] Very little coverage, interesting turn of events. I still haven't seen or heard any followup.

                                It's not buried, just ignored as trash by both Dems and Rep's, just like when he tried the same thing against Cheney. Watch the video, listen closly. Even Pelosi can't stand how stupid this guy is...

                                    Don't you have a war to not lose?

                                      What an utter waste of taxpayer's money that would be. There is no way they could possibly complete the proceeding's before Bush leaves office, and the rancor that this would cause can only come back to bite the Democrats this close to an election. Kucinich is an idiot...

                                      Care to discuss the actual 35 articles of impeachment or would you rather attack the messenger? (don't worry I already know the answer)

                                        I honestly doubt it. This has all been nothing but political gamesmanship from the very beginning. The Democrats know full well that Bush and Co. have not done anything that will stand up in court, and will not pursue charges once they are in power. The consequencies for thier own leadership would be too risky. Only a moron would actually believe that a course of action which has verifiably resulted in reduced terrorism should be brought to trial. But, hey, there is nothing I would love better than for the dems to do so.

                                        Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

                                        Oh yes we will. Once the justice-obstructing Bush administration is out of the white house, you 29%ers get to watch while we flay your political party alive. You can tell by the way you're talking, you already know we're going to have a Democrat for president. He wouldn't be representing the people if he didn't at least get some answers. I predict at least three suicides.

                                          That is precisely what I'm hoping for. First, , Iraq or no Iraq, the republicans deserve it and, second, the democrats will not be able to control their true Marxist core, they will be exposed for what they truly are. All you will accomplish is killing off the faux-conservatives among the republicans as well as exposing the country to great harm while leaving yourselves no room to effectively deal with the problems. Enjoy that 70% while you have it, they won't be yours for long.
