Expensive Fitzmas if you ask me


I read and heard on Bill Press that the retrial of Blogo is gonna cost $25-30 million is that true?
Boy, that would fill a lot of potholes let alone help some schools.

Why does a trial cost this much anyway?

1. This this the thugs chance for a three ring circus.

Why didn't Fitz spend the same energy on Cheney and '5 trips to the Grand Jury' Rove?

Or Judy 'Dark Actors' Miller?

What if they spend another 40 million and get one more count? Or no more counts? I agree, a very expensive craps shoot.

3. Clinton County, PA is enduring a Marcellus gas formation PR blitz right now
And the countryside is getting ripped up with new drilling pads and rights of way for gaslines.

(responding to your sig line pic, of course)

2. Free Blago!
Seriously. All that "they" have on him is that he "wanted" to take advantage of the replacement Senate appointment. Other politicians get away with much worse. It is just that they are "professionals" and know how to get away with it.

4. When I googled Blago and $25 million a story came up
That Blago was planning on spending $25 million to help start alternative energy programs for the State.
I didn't agree with the programs because he was gonna use.... coal.... and crops as alternative energy,
I guess that's the states strength and financial powerbase.




Listen I think he's a punk politician out of his league as being a gov, much like Palin, he's should have been a mayor like her. He's sleazy and we know it.



I'm disappointed in the US department of Justice....

BTW Fitz didn't do shit in court it was handled by another Justice guy
Fitz just did the ground work.

Now can we talk about the waste in our Wars?

5. A graduate of my high school just advanced to the House Appropriations subcommittee on defense
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=172x26471

I don't live in Tim Ryan's district, but he knows my brother. I am planning to write to him to tell him to end the manned bomber program, shrink the fleet, kill the cold war weapons programs, etc. Did I miss anything?
