What a Smug Little @%#&* on C-SPAN

[GiovanniC]

Regarding Dick Cheney's energy task force to caller:

"The Supreme Court just addressed this and I guess that's where it's going to stand... too bad, it's partisan politics and it's nasty. You don't have the right to know everything."

[Soopercali]

1. Arghhhh....

I was just thinking the same thing. How does this woman sleep at night? Hope the BMW was worth your soul, honey.

[Paradise]

2. to me, this kellyanne conway is "the most" aggravating

right-wing pundit; so much so that i'd like to punch her face in.
not capable of actually doing something like that but i surely do feel it. :mad: :puke:

[buff2]

4. She's the one who said that?

God, that fang toothed bimbo is as bad as Barbara Olson was and right up there with Annthrax Coulter. :puke:

[Paradise]

8. "fang toothed bimbo". thanks for the comic relief, buff2!

lol. i needed that! she makes me :crazy:

[buff2]

3. Was that caller serious?

Or did she say it with sarcasm? I missed it,since I'm on the computer.

[librechik]

5. she looked like a disinterred corpse this morning

huge circles under the eyes, sallow skin, deer in the headlights look

She is having a hard time defending the head of her coven.

[soothsayer]

6. Most of the govt is run in secret, if you think about it

The intelligence community has kept most of us---including Congress and even some presidents--in the dark about all their significant activities including:

the Manhattan Project (not a single member of Congress knew about it, even tho it cost $2 billion at the time. That means the funding came from other sources)

our development of biological weapons

importing Nazi scientists to work in the US (Project Paperclip)

terminal and mind-control experiments

nationwide interception of mail and cable transmissions (during the 50s, photographing 2 million envelopes and opening 250,000 letters between US citizens and communist countries----not even the president was exempt)

infiltrating the media and universities

secret coups

secret wars

assassinations

How can all this go on with very few---or sometimes, with NO---of our elected reps knowing about it?

We THINK we live in a free society, but...in reality it's an empire and oligarchy, vaguely aware of its own oppression, inside and out.

[salinen]

9. A whole population

unaware and uncaring due to the spoils of empire. "I want a Lexus"

[greekspeak]

12. I think you are right on target salinen

It reminds me of a scene in the movie version of Farenheit 451, in which a brain dead young woman sits and pets the fur on her coat like it is a kitten. What a lovely example of "sheeple" mentality. Why should I care what Shrub does? I want to go to Ethan Allen and get that new dining room suite. I don't have time to listen to Kerry....the TV said he is ill-defined and I have to get my SUV detailed. I just think that Anne Coulter is so hot. How do you like my new skirt? They were on sale at the Gap!

I am not saying I am free of materialistic drive. But there are more important things in life. Like freedom. And honesty from one's government.

15. Did you catch Bill Maher's "New Rules" last night?

He got on the public's case for being so apathetic when it comes to politics.

[Eric J in MN]

7. Our money paid the salaries of the govt officials meeting

with energy lobbyists.

We do have a right to know.

[burythehatchet]

10. stop making sense

[KharmaTrain]

14. Some Cases It's Good NOT To Know

Yes, you're right. That task force was on our dime and the minutes of that meeting and who attended should be public record. But this might not be a bad thing we don't know. Since this regime is covering this thing up so deep and tight, one can easy infer that this is being done because there were either illegal or unethical activities going on. We just don't know. And we won't know, the Supreme Court made sure of that.

I beleive there are times where government secrecy is important and we don't live in a totally open society. The freedom to speak also protects the freedom to be silent as well...even if it's on the country's dime if it's judged to be an issue of national security.

Think if we had learned that this task force was nothing more than a golf outting and nothing was done, or the actions of the task force was on the straight and narrow and through came out facts that didn't shine very nicely on the past administration.

This is one of the stupidest things this regime does. They fight any charges, no matter what it is...no fight too big or small and waste a lot of time, energy and money in covering up more than the actions we want to learn about or need to know. Their blinders are on fully right now and our job is to find how to lead this dead horse to a glue factory.

11. Kellyanne Conway was one of the

"Bring down Clinton" GOP Blonde Bimbo Brigade (BBB) :evilgrin: who was on cable news programs EVERY night doing her best to destroy the Clinton Presidency. The GOP blonde bimbo brigade..... Laura Ingraham (sp?), Ann Coulter, Barbara Olson, Kelly Conway......they all had a hand in the 8 year drive to remove Clinton from office. THAT'S where she's coming from. She's evil.

Man, she has NOT aged well. Damn....she looks BAD!

[grasswire]

13. and she married one of the "elves" remember...

....Paul Conway. A wealthy lawyer. I believe he is the person who was the go between with Linda Tripp and Starr's office, if I remember correctly. Member of the Federalist Society, as are they all.

She's a real talented liar.
