12. I love the music on his show.
Sometimes when they break for commercial, they play a cleverly-programmed tune that ties in with the previous story, almost like a comment. Hip!

#1 in the Guckert investigation.

Over the weekend I met a Rep from the adjoining district, who is on the Rules Committee. Asked him to relay my personal message to her, thanking her for her work on Guckert.

19. KO: How do you proceed
...given rethugs control both houses of congress, you can't hold hearings....

LS: Oh yes we can, even IF WE HAVE TO HOLD THEM ON THE LAWN OF THE CAPITOL.

YES!!!!!

18. Signed by
from Barney Frank to Jesse Jackson Jr. Why did he pick those two out of the 89? Talk about throwing up a Red Flag to the Reich Wing.

21. That's what I thought too...however
It was a FANTASTIC interview!!!! LS said that this memo only confirms many have been saying since the 2000 inaugural! LS the administration has smeared the credibility of everyone from OUR government who has said the same thing earlier.


WOW!!!!!

20. Well, I was pleased
he gave as much time to it as he did, and I was thrilled to see Slaughter discussing it with him.

The funny thing about this "memo" is that it would have had more impact (I think) if it had come to light before the 9/11 Commission Report, AND it's a shame Blair's party wasn't up for re-election when * was. Might have been able to knock off both a chimp and poodle at the same time.

Oh well.

23. It was a GREAT START to what I hope is much more to come
let's write to Olberman! He deserves it, he has courage, and is overcoming whatever is holding the rest of the MSM back from exposing the truth.

27. I think they have to

28. Louise Slaughter was GREAT!
Anyone know her address? I think we should send masses of email to her to thank her and to encourage her to actually have a meeting on the lawn! Maybe the very fact it was on the lawn would get some coverage. Sounds like the makings of a good old protest to me!
