...that keep showing up in my mouth I want to put the obvious into words: the hearings are exposing the squirmiest and slimiest of the underside of a useless beholden corrupt human being.
Also brutal, callous, and hard hearted, disgusting and unworthy.
On the flip side I am riveted by most of the house members who as questioners have caught on. They are not allowing the acting AG worm his way into stealing their time and they show him up for the unco-operative blob he is.
In the last week I have had a little recurrence of a formerly felt relieving feeling creep back into my consciousness. I had not experienced it since Obama took over for Bush 2.
Watching some Democratic Members of the legislative branch swing into action and hearing their determination for investigations and oversight started and expressed I am feeling a bit of permission to slowly exhale. Maybe theyve got this.
History proves what is hard to imagine in our perilous time. We can believe that this, too, shall pass.
Vigilance.

Its just a matter of time now.

As much as we all had that visceral reaction to Erlichman, I am told that Haldeman was the real SOB of the pair.

(4,035 posts)I was particularly impressed with 1) the number of women on the panel, which you would seldom see if see on a Republican led committee and 2) their veracity in questioning. They were pit bulls, and I was happy to witness their resolute in questioning a worm who tried his best to spit a loogie (sp?) in the face of the committee.
