Where are Alan Shore & Shirley Schmidt at when you need 'em?

Ernest Partridge said....

The accumulated evidence that the 2000 and 2004 elections were stolen is, I submit, more than adequate to convince an impartial jury – “proof beyond reasonable doubt.”

Yet the thieves are secure in their purloined offices. How is this possible?

The silence of the media and the paralysis of the Democrats goes a long way toward explaining this. Even so, the secret is “out,” as Zogby tells us that more than half of the population smells a rat.

I once believed that when this crime against our body politic was exposed, as with Nixon and the “smoking gun” tapes, the House of Bush would surely fall and that the GOP would be relegated to minority status for a full generation. What I did not count on was the possibility that the crime would be unpunished despite exposure. Yet that is what has happened.

As Senator Dole used to ask, “Where’s the outrage?!”

One theory is that both the Democrats and the Republicans, along with the mainstream media, have agreed to a vow of silence, lest public knowledge of the crime destroy our “democratic” form of government.

What this excuse fails to acknowledge is that the fraud has accomplished just that: it has abolished our democracy. The government of the United States no longer “derives its just powers from the consent of the governed.”

The task before us is not simply to preserve our democracy, it is to restore our democracy. The founders of our Republic articulated the remedy: “whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of , it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government.”

The first step toward that end is for the citizens to acknowledge the crime against the people and their Constitution, and then to demand impeachment, conviction and punishment of the criminals.

Not long ago, such an outcome seemed impossible, as it still does to most members of Congress. But with the decline of Bush’s approval ratings and the growing irrelevance of the mainstream media, the demand and the feasibility of impeachment grows.

The Congressional hearings will continue to disclose the crimes of the Bush regime, the economy will continue to decline, shrinking the middle class, the national debt will continue to grow, the dead and wounded will continue to return home from the Bush and Cheney wars, the international community of nations will continue to isolate and shun the United States.

We simply can’t go on like this. Something’s gotta give.

My greatest fear is of what the desperate Busheviks might attempt in order to avoid their day of reckoning, following January, 2009.

Better we the people act, than be acted upon.



So where's Alan Shaw when you need him?

We need this prosecuted - and we have been waiting too long for the sheriff.

I say call in James Spader and Candice Bergen....

14. Partridge nails it in just a page. K*R...and Alan Shore would destroy them in "cross"

Shore studies up on the Bush Cheney Crime Cabal.
“This should be easy,” he thinks.



Minor office politics: Candice Bergen goes over the negatives. Shore responds,
“They should just surrender now. They’re finished.”



Your Honor, I AM Alan Shore. And he goes to work.


LET JUSTICE BE DONE!!!
Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind!!!



It’s all over in a few days. Even Denny is
happy about it.Bush and Cheney are off to jail
and the public is vastly amused.

Time for a cigar and Scotch.

21. Quotes from Denny Crane
''Do you think it's a sign of Alzheimer's if you can't remember how many people you've shot?''
''There you go again. Always looking for a point.''
''Here's a tip my friend. Never, ever talk about anything to do with the environment. Makes you boring. Second, it's political. You gotta figure half the people are against you.''
''Don't waste your time trying to get in my head. There's nothing there.''
''Son. Son. This is the United States of America. We don't really believe in Miranda anymore.''
''I misplaced a client once...I made sure to ship him off to some country with no extradition -- South America. He sends me Felice Cupleanos cards every year.''
''Watch it, Judge. We're a superpower. Don't make us add you to the axis.''
''Canada. Japan. England. Any number of those pinko countries, I'd be in jail for shooting somebody''
''The current president of the United States is George Walker Bush, son to George Herbert Walker Bush, whose father was the late United States Senator Prescott Bush, who, as an undergraduate at Yale, once wrestled my father in the nude. But that's a story for another day. Let's stick to the issues at hand. Denny Crane.''

19. YES!!! That's the answer: Alan Shore and Shirley Schmidt!
Maybe in the end of the episode, we will see Denny waking up in bed and the past seven years will just be a bad dream!
