Oh, that's easy.

Any member of the DLC.

It's where the Rockefeller Republicans went when the ReagaNazis threw them out of the GOP.

But the symbol definitely should be Uncle Sam, held down and being teabagged by a big ol' Red-and-Blue elephant.

Mmmm... that's Republican...

Cause until then, 99% of all third-party campaigns are just spoilers.

Pick a state, any state, and eliminate ALL arms laws. Rifles, pistols, big magazines, full auto, concealed or open carry. In church, school, on the job and in the state house.
Hell, let's even give 'em vehicle-mounted.
Go with the absolutist reading of 'not be infringed.'
Only condition is full search of all people and vehicles going out of the state. No cash'n'carry.

After the resulting carnage makes it to the front page of every paper and web site on the planet, we'll be able to settle this crap about ignoring the 'well-regulated' clause...

C'mon, NRA. I f'ing DARE YOU!

(And for those of you at college, trying this experiment and reporting the results is why it's called 'Political Science.')

My money's on the idea that the CIA members that were doing the briefings were hand-picked or approved by the OVP.

Nancy should have differentiated between the Agency as a whole, and the ones sent by Cheney's minion, Tenet, to lie to Congress.

What if someone outed one of these oh-so-unimportant office chairwarmers?

I mean, if Cheney's staff can out an undercover weapons prevention specialist from the CIA who travels regularly to the Middle East, it shouldn't be a stretch to out some weasel from the front office at Langley.

BTW, bet they were green badgers...

"personal aggrandizement" of course can't refer to being SecDef under Bush I, accepting Halliburton's proposal to privatize most military services, and then becoming CEO of same company to reap the profits from his public sale of our nation's military. Or can it?

"pursuit of power" can't possibly reference taking the US Constitution into the bathroom of the VP's private residence and putting it on the toilet paper roll, for the use of himself and his family. Without telling the Junior president.

"warmongering"? 'Nuff said elsewhere. Everywhere elsewhere..

Which leaves "bankrupting" the nation, said in defense of a man who has said, time and again, that deficits don't matter? I'm sure he appreciates both your defense of him and your lack of knowledge of his record...

Meanwhile, back in reality...

Sorry, but even Grover Norquist recognized that his ATR 'No New Taxes' pledge that he forces all Republicans to sign (see Crist and Rubio in FL this week) will never result in the 'Republican' government you wish for.

That's why he said his goal was "to drown the government in a bathtub." Ignoring that espousing the violent overthrow of the government is treason, the only way you'll get your dream is the dissolution of the United States as a government.

And since 70+% of voters now recognize your goals for what they are, well, enjoy wandering the wilderness for a few electoral cycles.

After what you've all done, it's the least you deserve.

Anybody notice that Haley Barbour, another signer of this POS, had to belly up to reality yesterday and sign legislation that jacked Mississippi's cigarette tax by 50 cents a pack?

Meanwhile, out here in CA, the few Republicans left in the state Legislature, who've ALL signed this POS, are about to finish what Reagan and then Howard Jarvis got rolling, the tin-ing of the Golden State.

Next Tuesday's special election will be a disaster, and then it's back to the drawing board to get a budget, with a required 2/3's majority to pass it, and that means at least 3 ReagaNazis in each house have to break the pledge.

You did miss one LIE:
"misleading the world that the United States condone techniques of barbarous cruelty."

And how many countries have we farmed our torture out to? There's Egypt, and Italy, and all the CIA's 'black sites', etc...

Just like the wacko petition I got from WorldNetDaily complaining that I hadn't done my constitutional duty as an Elector to verify Obama's birth certificate. 4000 names attached.

I'll say the same thing now that I said then: If you'd ever shown the slightest interest in the law, I might listen.

As it is, F**K YOU.

Oh, I shouldn't have put it that way. I should have said, "Why can't they solve murders committed among Kendren's family?"

Kenny's the dean of the Pepperdine Law School (>cough

This NYTimes mag article from 2001 was great.

So, hell, yes, Harry should announce every day: " This is Day # of our President's team held hostage by the disloyal opposition."

Then he should start using his backroom powers. Be a shame, for example, if Lindsey Graham suddenly had his office handed over to incoming-Senator Franken, and got moved to a broom closet in the Dome...

Birds of a feather...

Check out this memo from Sen. Reid's office (couldn't find my PDF, but this blog over at Kos has the whole thing:

Then review this piece from Ryan Grim (indeed!) over at HuffPo:

They've sterilized it in practice, so that there are no negative public consequences, which would be oh so lovely in the time of C-SPAN.

The closer we get to prosecution, or a Truth Commission, or whatever, the more leaks the intelligence community puts out. Meanwhile, the Dick is talking more now than he ever did in office.

Are the leaks coming from Cheney's 'stay-behinds'?

These were the installed loyalists and last-minute placements that Dick and Junior made on the way out.

Are we seeing the reason why they were left behind? If traced down, will we find out that many of them have no legitimate access to these docs, or this info, but were given it by the same VP Office that outed Plame, strong-armed the CIA and invented the need for torture?

While I think what Harman did was stupid, and may end up being considered a crime, the idea that the Democratic party should run her and all her middle-roaders out of the party because they're not adhering to some magical 'Progressive Agenda'(and I'm talkin' to YOU, Orzsag!) is a great way to follow the GOP down the toilet, or worse yet, facilitate their resurgence.

All done as a reaction to the fact that, even after all the good work Florida Republicans did gettin' them Darkies and them old Jews off the rolls from 2000 to 2008, that goddamned Kenyan STILL won Florida.

Stricter registration standards (government IDs only, nothing your retirement home or hospice issued,) felonies and fines to all registration drive operations that turn in invalid registrations, or forms older than 48 hours. Fewer polling places...

Goddamned MF'ing Republicans...And Coleman wants more lenient standards so he can steal this one.
Goddamn Coleman, and that bastard lawyer of his that helped steal the presidency for Bush.....

Christ, I need a drink.....
