1. By the time the voting starts, no one will care
Most people don't know or worry about Rangel or Waters.

3. And that is E-X-A-C-T-L-Y the point I was trying to make when posting this...
...I thought about spelling it out but thought it would be evident. Glad to see it was. The average American voter won't give this a thought.

4. Who are the Dems on the ethics committee?
Wouldn't surprise me to learn they are mostly blue dog douchebags from endangered seats in various parts of jesusland who see an opportunity to enhance their standing with their dumbass constituents by beating up on "liberals", and as an added bonus, black people.

The timing of this whole thing is awfully suspicious.

7. I see this as a masterful move on the part of the Speaker. She said
Edited on Sat Jul-31-10 11:12 PM by Subdivisions
she was going to purge the swamp and she's doing it. The fact that they're starting with our own members' ethical issues shows the greater public that we're not afraid to go after our own after years of seeing nothing of the sort from the rethugs.

10. BUT they will be reprimanded and Ensign could and probably WILL
end up in jail. And how about Delay 5yrs and waiting for a trial. AND Fox has this crook on their programs. So it just goes to show they people their cable show with all the crooks they can find. Like always attracts like. There is not one damn person on that show who is not a bald faced liar or an out and out hate urging crook.

11. The people at FOX are bonafide assholes.
Edited on Sun Aug-01-10 08:19 AM by political_Dem
Has a news department or network in the past ever been so outright audacious and vicious in its presentation of politics? I think they've stepped over the line this time. They have set a horrible example for future reporters with their behavior.

Unfortunately, because of the idiocracy FOX stays in the limelight without slipping away into the ether. If only someone could put their foot down and close up the FOX shop for good.

Wouldn't that be nice?
