Imminent constitutional crisis
Congress and Bush have now officially butted heads, thrown down the gauntlet, are at loggerheads, have gone toe to toe, etc. Choose whatever metaphor you want but we have a constitutional crisis on our hands. I'm referring to the Congressional demand for Rove and others to testify under oath and Bush's invoking executive privilege. Anyone have any psychic or astrological clue as to what happens next? Anyone willing to do a tarot spread?

2. Wow, I read the blog post from March 16, and wow!
Found it quite interesting what she is saying about today (3/20), and also the 21st and 22nd. Was a little disappointed to see that Rove may still come out of this with little more than bumps and bruises, though.

5. Rove always emerges unscathed.
He is the true sociopath of the crowd.

3. No. But Thank YOU.
I can do a Tarot spread.

But you aleady laid it out. Constitutional Crisis.

I read a guy's site years ago. He said, there would be no election in 2004. What do you think? Did we have an election? I don't support his stuff and will not post a link here.

Who has noticed we have a CRISIS? The CRISES began 12/2000. It is over seven years old.
People die daily.

It doesn't take a psychic to read the times. There is a CRISIS. Hello?

Please tell me we will not sit and read tea leaves while the nation burns, in a Constitutional Crisis. What God or Goddess or Planet needs to tell us, there is an idiot at the helm and he has trashed everything that built our nation. And he's an idiot son. And a rich mother fucker.

Hello? How was your day.

10. 2004 wasn't a valid election
so the guy was right.

What does he say about 2008?

11. I haven't read his site for quite some time.
They went to mostly a paid content format. And frankly, I got weary of being terrified.

8. So much is up in the air and will depend on how much of a power
struggle congress wants to get into. I think we have months and months of more dirt and grime yet to go through. I get that this atty crises will look like nothing if things continue to break.

I heard from my mom yesterday, who has always voted republican that she wants him impeached. She was angry with him before and thought impeachment would do more harm than good last year, that has all changed now. As an aside she said that during the speech yesterday that the television quit working in the Albuquerque area (she said due to solar flares?) and SHE said she thought it was a sign that God was sick of him too.

I do believe that when the country is ready we will see justice, may we all be ready quickly.

9. ". . .it was a sign that God was sick of him too."
Your mom sounds like a real character. That comment really cracked me up.

From your Mom's mouth to the "Creatrix's" ears.

I can't believe how the Plame scandal and the treason involved has been reduced to four lousy perjury charges. Don't really feel it's over though.

Time will tell.

12. No insight on this particular issue, however,
putting two and two together leads me to believe that Congress won't budge on this nor will the White House, so I think we are going to have a classic irrestible force meeting an immovable object. This could be very interesting because I believe we are watching the Fourth Reich unraveling before our very eyes. They just can't cover up their lies anymore and are sinking further into the morass by trying to lie their way out of the lies.

13. Hey Cleita great post.
Did you know that Matt Lauer (hate to admit I watch the first 10-15 minutes of that show sometimes) said " are (we) going to have a classic irrestible force meeting an immovable object (?)" to David Gregory this morning?

Not that I think you're anything like Lauer really. Just thought it was synchronous.

I absolutely love the last line of your post.

They are talking about it now on this radio show.

http://www.onpointradio.org/shows/2007/03/20070322_a_main.asp

The show will be archived later on this evening.

15. Hehe! Maybe Matt Lauer read my post.
Just kidding. It's kind of obvious that the situation has a 99% chance of turning into this. Neither side can afford to lose. Democrats are under tremendous pressure to undo the train wreck of the Bush administration and the Republican led Congress. They can't hide behind the being a minority argument anymore for not facing up to BushCo. Bush on the other hand can't afford to admit his administration is a bunch of lying criminals.

Stay tuned. :popcorn:

Oh, and add to that the coming election campaigns. Get an extra large :popcorn:
