1. We should burn them at the stake. If they live, they're obviously witches. |

3. If they have nothing to hide, they shouldn't mind |
|
testifying. In fact, if they are innocent, won't testifying under oath make that obvious and make the Democrats look like fools?

6. Given the Clinton years, I usually can't say anything... |
|
as I'm too busy, what with my skullcap being shot several feet in the air from the little mushroom cloud that goes off beneath it.

is that this crowd makes the Clintons look good.
That usually stops them in their tracks.

10. One way to detect a witch |
|
Is to do something very similar to waterboarding, which the republicans say isn't torture, so I'll agree it's a witch hunt if we can use this non-torture methods of obtaining information.

Remember when it was of vital national importance that we get to the bottom of Bill Clinton's sex life? Remember when he and every single person surrounding him, including his secret service detail, was hauled before congress for sworn testimony? Remember the Monica Lewinsky sting? Remember when they impeached him for "lying" about it?
If this is a witch hunt, WTF was that?

14. Well, considering witch hunts were persecution against free-thinking women... |
|
I'd have to say it's that the witches are the hunters, not the hunted.

15. after I stop laughing? |
|
Seriously how can this be a witch hunt versus what they went after clinton for?
Maybe point out gonzales 3 different testimonies (confirmation hearings: I will seperate personal and job, Jan 2007: I will never never make political decesions, March: so what?)
Its not OKAY to lie!

19. hmm, I'm a bit uncomfortable with comparing this with the Lewinsky scandal |
|
To me, it sounds as though this is revenge of some sort. Yes, the Clenis fiasco was a stupid, politically motivated fishing expedition funded by taxpayers to the tune of $40+ million.
Investigating the attorney purge is not payback, it is not a witchhunt, and it is not politically motivated. Congress is fulfilling their constitutional obligation to keep the the executive branch in check - nothing more, nothing less.
Let dittoheads call it what they will, but (for once, FINALLY) they are not framing this issue.

22. how about their tired line- "911 changed everything" - we have to be 'vigilant'- |
|
If they 'look' like witches- that's all that's needed. "ya gotta remember, we're at WAR- the war on terra, and there are evildoers looking to destroy our way of life, our freedom.! er, um, ...."
no one is 'presumed innocent' any more. Why should the people with their fingers on the pulse of the 'man' in the WH be treated any different.

has nothing to do with this. Pukes always bring this up to me and I ask them if it absolves this administration from wrong doing. Plus I remind them of the "honor and dignity" this group of charlatans was supposed to bring to the White house. Using their own stupid talking points against them is the best. "If they did nothing wrong, they should have nothing to worry about." The problem is there are copius wrongdoings, and they know it.

This is not a time to say "we're doing it to Bush because they did it to Clinton". Clinton has nothing to do with this, this is for cause.
