2. Julie Myers.....

Wasn't there some stink about her having no qualifications????

[stillcool]

3. and related to General Myers...

also the one on the Federal Elections Committee had something to do with purging the polls and other nefarious acts to dampen all that democrat support. I think we have arrived.
edit to add the dude's name...Hans Von Spakovsky

[Punkingal]

6. That ****ing dictator....

This is absolutely disgusting. Why don't the Democrats in Congress raise holy hell about this stuff?? Do they all do this??? Did Clinton???

[TheDebbieDee]

of recently retired Chief of Staff General Richard Myers.

10. Not sure, but I'll bet that....

11. Gordon England, of Texas, to be Deputy Secretary of Defense.

I think even my GOP Senators oppossed that one. But Bush sneaks him through.

12. Welcome to life under a fascist regime.

He also signed the anti-torture bill with a caveat: "It's illegal unless I want to torture them."

Sounds like it's time for plan B (insurrection).

13. Why do you think

the fascists want to ram the "patriot" act through so badly. They are smelling potential revolution and want to be able to massacre the People with immunity.
