So when does the investigation into Bush's illegal spying begin?
Edited on Fri Dec-30-05 10:57 AM by ProSense
If a crime is committed and no one knows about it, is it still a crime?

:shrug:


Anonymous Snitch: He gave the order to illegally spy on Americans.

Public: He broke the law and should be impeached.

Law breaker: Who told?

DOJ: Probe launched to find out who told on the law breaker.

1. Moral of the story:
promise to protect someone and you can get away with murder. Isn't that sort of a Mafia tactic?

2. Everyone who has a firewall
needs to check it to see whether or not they are being spied on. I did and sure enough, the DoD visits my computer several times daily.

I have made copies of these records and I am sending them to Patrick Leahy.

3. Keep an eye on Arlen Spector
He is trying to start an investigation. The Freepers are livid! One of them wished him bodily harm . . . it must mean he is doing something right (in the "right" sense -- not "right-wing").

4. DOJ I wouldn't put my money on
but the Congressional investigations should be interesting. Some the moderate and libertarian Republicans are getting nervous and want to distance themselves from him. I can see this investigation going somewhere.

Bush may start to regret winning a second term

5. Secretly i think he wants out
just like Harken, Arbusto, etc.
everything he's touched has turned to dung
time to declare bankruptcy, George and sell your shares before they drop through the basement even further.
