I believe it was Fred Barnes that said the only thing new with this Congress will be the number of hearings they hold. The number of scheduled hearings is now at over 400.
If the Democrats were as interested in destroying AQ and the rest of the Jolly Jihadists as they are at trying to destroy the Bush Administration, our men and women of the military would already be home.

These rocket scientists are now touting how they have increased minimum wage. The bill should have read “The Forced Increase in Wage and Forced Increase in Cost Bill”.

Now Rahm Emanuel, cheif rocket scientist, says nothing will be done about unfettered illegal immigration for at least six years. No surprise there. But in that length of time, I am sure there will be 1,000 more hearings, more pork for companies that doen’t exist given to John Murtha, more screaming about how the Republicans are blocking progression and more attempts to bash a President that only has 17 months left.

Who will the Democrats blame for their failures if Hillary gets elected? Simple, they will still blame Bush.

The New Socialist Democratic Party of America has adopted the Fitzgerald Plan; if there is no crime, create one.

Arad –US Attys are political appointees, not covered by civil service rules.

So, what you are saying is that all of the fired US Attorneys (inarguably were top performers) who have come forward were simply lying about their dismissals? The shreds of evidence are coming out as part of the hearings that have been going on.

I think it is important to remember that the cover-up is almost always worse than the crime

Arad1010,

There has been not one shred of evidence that they were let go in “retaliation”. By the way, political appointees are exempt under the rules for federal civil employees. Which means like I said, “For any reason”, they serve purely at the pleasure of the appointer – the President.

You are not correct in stating “Again, Political Appointees can be fired for ANY REASON. That could be for wearing the wrong perfume – ANY REASON”

Federal statutes protect civil service employees, prohibit political retaliation against government officials.

Let them rave and bury themselves.

I will note the supreme lack of interest in this topic by the YouTube warriors in the latest debate.

Also there were no suggestions of impeachment either.

But if you read the left of center blogs thats Job 1 and Job2.

Iraq withdrawal comes in a painful third.

Somewhere they forget to put forward a Dem agenda except as a second thought.
