In order to "prevent a fire on Capitol Hill"...Bush is sending in CHENEY.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

Bob Kur, just now on MSNBC (so no link).

The "Bush OK'd Spying On Americans" story is certainly not going to restore Bush's "sunny nobility."

Kur said that "In order to prevent a fire on Capitol Hill, Vice President Dick Cheney will be going there shortly to talk with the leaders."



THAT should calm everyone down.

:evilgrin:

[Tom Joad]

1. What's he gonna say... "Just #### Off!" ?

[Jacobin]

2. I'm sure Herr Cheney will be on all the Sunday talk shows

muttering in that voice of his how this was all good and proper and saved zillions of lives and lie about how it was used.

[fooj]

3. Who gives a shit who he sends to The Hill?

When you break the law, you break the law, asshole!

Peace.

[ananda]

9. One law for Dems..

.. no law for Reeps.

If that changes, I would be so happy.

I keep hoping.

Also, I had to laugh when I read that subject header.

They're sending -Cheney- to douse the flames?!
That's rich. He's more likely to add burning oil and grease
to the turbulent waters that have turned from a drip into a
torrential, swirling eddy engulfing that culture of corruption
in their claws. hehheh

4. He will waterboard congress.

[Inland]

5. Because nobody demands blind obedience like Cheney

If you can't defend the position rationally, send the guy whose known for his affinity for torture over to tell them to fucking fly right or suffer the consequences.

[Loonman]

6. Reichstag fire? Palpatine outlawing the Senate?

:grr:

[NanceGreggs]

7. Only this Administration would be stupid enough ...

... to 'prevent' a fire by pouring Dick 'Gasoline' Cheney on it!

:rofl:

[Humor_In_Cuneiform]

8. Like throwing lighter fluid on a fire, that'll do it.

[Loonman]

10. He's gonna tell them to go fuck themselves

"Cuz Cheney(5 deferments/other priorities) is all class.

[LSparkle]

11. Like a lit match on gasoline ...

That man can't launch a charm offensive because he's not charming -- he's OFFENSIVE!

[Burried News]

12. Mr. Chenis, can you confirm or deny that the Bolton files that the

Dems wanted prior to his confirmation hearings, contained evidence that NSA domestic intercepts were part of our intelligence gathering effort? Were there any intercepts that involved members of the Congress or their staffs?

[Pithy Cherub]

13. Is Bush TRYING to make Darth Cheney have a heart attack?

:shrug: Neocons are not above republican cannibalism.:puke:

[babylonsister]

14. But, but, Cheney will act like kindling! I really wonder

who's calling the shots. :wtf:

[mmonk]

15. Sending Cheney to prevent a fire

is like sending an arsonist in a hay barn with a flamethrower.

[Elidor]

16. "We must torture those of you not okay with the domestic spying" n/t

[A Simple Game]

17. Makes perfect sense to me.

Cheney's the one who knows what's in everyone's files. They also spied on Congress, you don't think they just spied on common people do you?

[Divernan]

18. The J. Edgar Hoover practise-secret files on all congressmen.

How does the Freedom of Information Act work on this? Can people find out if they were spied on, and if so what information was gathered about them? I am SURE they went after all the Dem Senators and Congresspersons, and any moderate Republicans.
