Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for justice ....... for they shall be satisfied.
Cunningham ... a small satisfaction.
Harris ... a bigger satisfaction.
With, certainly, more to come.

Harris could easily play the wicked witch. Hope these prosecutors have some balls. She's going to be defended by the WH, probably. "Oh, I'm so sorry. That's classified" and all that shit.

I can never understand how she got away with stealing the 2000 election, considering the NAACP sued her & won!
While the corporate fake news had the nation focused on 'hanging chad', it was really what Harris had done that really stole the election for the Republicans.
She admitted thousands of names were taken off the voter roles in error---she claimed the company she hired to purge the criminals off the voter roles 'made an error' (wink, wink) & took way too many off who didn't deserve it & claimed it was the company's fault.
I guess they couldn't PROVE she did it on purpose, although we all know she did.
But why not nail her with not doing her job?
It was still HER responsibility to see there were no gross errors of this magnitude made in the election & she failed in a big way.
She should have been held resonsible & driven out of office by the thousands of angry voters who were wrongly purged & not allowed to vote---not put into Congress as her reward for stealing the election for Bush.
She's a disgrace to women in government.
Every American that she screwed out of an honest election across this nation, should hope she lands in jail as punishment.

When will someone reveal incontrovertible evidence that Harris helped to steal the presidential election in 2000? The discovery of illegal campaign contributions is all well and good; however, for me, such revelations will really count for something if they eventually lead investigators to solid evidence of her election tampering five years ago (and maybe even last year). Maybe one of her soon-to-be-indicted friends will eventually feel the urge to produce election-tampering evidence against her in order to lessen his or her own sentence.
Yeah, I know. I'm almost certainly dreaming/hallucinating. No need to point it out to me.
However, I may not be dreaming about the eventual outcome of the subject discussed in this article: The Ohio Vote Debacle. It's enough to make me want to go outside and throw rocks at cars with Bush/Cheney bumper stickers on them (which would be like shooting fish in a barrel here in western Nebraska).

Welfl,
I guess we share the same dream/hallucination then.
I went to your link but couldn't even finish reading it...I can sense by now the signs of impending cranium explosion.
I just heard this brilliant little snippet on Air America...can't remember who said it...
Two guys are riding in a car when the passenger says to the driver "Look out, there's a cliff up ahead!"
The driver responds: "You're crazy, there's no cliff up ahead".
The passenger says: "Yes!! Yes there is!! It's right in front of us!!"
The driver insists there's no cliff, right up until the car goes over the cliff, at which time the driver says to the passenger: "This is YOUR fault! You WANTED us to go over the cliff!!"

How the nighty have fallen.
Took her what? Four years to become embroiled in a corruption scandal in Congress. Seems quick until you remember she is a republican. Then you wonder what took her so long.

Sorry for an o.t. comment but...
In response to the bill to ban gays from adopting children, a lawmaker whose name I don't recall is proposing a bill that will ban republicans from adopting children.
He's trying to make a point, obviously....but how can we get a petition going to support this bill??! I wonder how many signatures it would get...
Dems' hands are tied with no subpoena power etcetera, but this could be a powerful symbolic statement, shining a spotlight on rightwing intolerance & stupidity.
What do people think?

#27 Floridiot,
I replied to you yesterday & for some reason it never posted. *sigh*
So...re the wicked queens #24...
I dunno, the top one doesn't really look all that kind to me! To be fair, she IS younger & also not SNEERING like our katherine in that unfortunate photo.
I definitely see a family resemblance, though...I mean, look at those eyebrows. And I think they're even wearing the same shade of eyeshadow. Well, you know how sisters like to borrow each other's makeup.
I'd like to see kathy at her next press conference...perhaps before her sentencing... with the word WICKED emblazoned across her chest in flames.
Then we could make a fairer comparison.

Sorry about that uhhh incident. I had Jeff post it using my name. Basically the point is he was tortured and we gave the proof over to the authorities.
And I took screenshots of the scars which was embarassing for everyone. The rest of the "details" is just fodder.

There's been a buzz on the net for the past few days that maybe, finally, Bush is going to get his comeuppance. Cunningham has been sentenced to hard time, Katharine Harris, the "President Maker", is tainted by a related bribery scandal, Bush has been shown to be a liar (yet again) in public via the Katrina video conference expose, and most of all, the "uproar" over the Dubai Buy.
Don't kid yourselves: they're blowing smoke and snowing you.
Remember, these are desperate men who undoubtedly, as more and more people believe, were complicit in the faked Terrorist attack on 9/11. Do you really think that such criminals as that are going to go down for ignoring hurricane warnings or trying to sell off chunks of America?
Get real. These men are - literally - the new Fourth Reich and if you want to know what is really going on, what is really likely to happen, then study the history of Hitler's Germany.
Bush has got control of the judiciary, finally, thanks to Congress laying down for Alito. What do you think all that warrantless, illegal spying was all about? You don't really think Bush was using those powers to spy on ordinary citizens do you? He's already got all he needs to keep track of them. See this article to get a clue on exactly how closely average citizens are being watched without illegal wiretapping. No indeed, that warrantless surveillance was for an altogether different reason: it was to get the goods on all the members of Congress with secrets (all of them, no doubt), so as to make sure the legislation he wanted is passed, and to make sure that the judge he wanted was confirmed.
What about Meiers, you ask?
You don't really think Bush wanted her, do you?
It was blowing smoke, giving the impression that there is "give and take," a real "democracy" in the U.S. Of course he didn't really want her. If he had wanted her, you can bet she would be sitting on the court today. Georgie didn't spend that year or more doing all that warrantless surveillance on Congress for nothing.
Now he has another snow job going on to further bamboozle the slow-thinkers who keep hoping against hope that something good is accidentally going to happen, Bush will get exposed and somebody will do something. Now Bush is going after any journalist or whistle-blower who dares to expose his illegal activities.
Do you really think the New York Times and the whole Judith Miller nonsense was about protecting sources or journalistic freedom and integrity? After all, Judy was protecting members of the Criminal Bush Gang. The New York Times was promoting Bush's war. No, it was all cooked up to play out exactly as it did to give the masses the impression that there is still some real democracy in the U.S.
Now the Times is pretending to be a righteous, insulted lady for the next act.
Lemme tell ya, that's no lady!
Think about it. The New York Times is STILL printing only those things that promote the Neocon agenda and burying those things that do not. If the New York Times had really "awakened" to a sense of obligation to democracy and people's rights, it would be blazoning in giant headlines every day: Experts Call for Release of 9/11 Evidence
. It would be sending out its army of investigative reporters to dig up the REAL dirt on Bush and the Neocons. But that isn't what it is doing. It's making a mealy mouthed plea for information that doesn't amount to a hill of beans. Hell's bells! If illegal wiretapping was the worst thing Bush had done, he would be a saint.
Nope. The Times is now playing the part of Harriet Meiers in Newsprint Drag. "Oh, you nasty Bushies! Warrantless wiretapping! How dare you...! We are gonna sue you!"
All the Times is doing is setting itself up as a Straw Man so that Bush and the Neocons can knock it flat. And when it goes down, so goes ALL the Press in the U.S. In fact, it may even set a precedent for Internet News censorship to an all-new level of suppression.
Fact is: No attempt to investigate or impeach Bush will go anywhere because it will be declared "aid to the enemy in a time of war", backed up by the Supreme Court, and the Neocons will get away with everything.
But still, people are excitedly chuckling and suggesting that many of the Bush supporters are falling away, distancing themselves from the Administration and its cooties because election time is coming.
Don't be fooled. There is no possibility of a fair election anywhere in this country. Bush lost two elections in a row, but that didn't stop him from making himself president. The exit polls told the truth, but it doesn't matter who votes for who, what matters is who is counting the votes.
It's all an act, a shadow show to give the antsy populace a little hope to cling to while the rest of the trap is prepared: Prison Camps for dissidents brought to you by Halliburton.
So, what IS likely to happen out of all this apparent dog-eat-dog Congress vs Bush Media Games Madness?
Again I say: study the history of Hitler's Germany.
What is likely to happen if the pressure builds too high is something like Hitler's Night of the Long Knives.
