The Senate Democrats, despite the resignation of the Attorney General, have said they will continue their investigation. It would be interesting to hear what it is they believe they are investigating. Senator Feingold said he was sure a crime had been committed although he had no specifics. Perhaps the Senate Democrats could put their fertile imaginations to work, temporarily laying aside the important task of dreaming up lurid hypothetical dangers for destitute voters, and try to imagine any hypothetical crime that might conceivably have been committed by firing the US attorneys. After all, one of the president's responsibilities, spelled out in the Constitution, is to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed." Since there are laws against vote fraud, for the president to tell US attorneys to prosecute vote fraud, one would think, is merely to carry out his obligation under the Constitution.

to pave the way for a communist government?

Antonio Gramsci believed one way to achieve control was through the education system. Gramsci presumed that the existing system of education in his native Italy was structured to keep the "established" societal classes in their respective place. He realized that intellectuals could be produced by an educational system to perform a function for the dominant social group in society, in order for the ruling class to maintain its control over the rest of society.

On Sunday, July 29, Chris Wallace interviewed Senator Russ Feingold on Fox News. Wallace observed that Democrats had received thousands of documents related to the firing of the U.S. attorneys. He asked if the Senator could point to one smoking gun that had been discovered in those documents indicating that a crime had been committed. The Senator stammered that he could not name specifics but that he was sure that a crime had been committed.


What crime this might be is never explained. The Democrats are angry because U.S. attorneys were apparently fired for failing to prosecute vote fraud. Democrats always hyperventilate about vote fraud. Whenever it is proposed that voters show photo identification and prove that they are the person they claim to be, Democrats recite sad stories of hypothetical voters who are destitute wretches and cannot afford to obtain photo ID.

It is impossible

That has been proven

You Neocon trolls all keep saying -"I was there, I saw the planes hit"!

So did all of us. Then we saw 90% of the jet fuel brun off at the second of impact. Then we heard a firefighter on his radio say that the fire wasn't that bad and that if they could get something on it they could put it out. Then we saw buldings freefall into their own footprints in less than 10 seconds.

Then we found out that the steel used in those buildings were tested in heat much hotter than jet fuel and that it didn't effect them.

Then we found no plane wreckage at the Pentagon

Then we found no plane wreckage in Pennsylvania

Then we found out the Pentgon went out of their way to confiscate video footage from businesses across the street

Then we found out they found the compounds of Thermite, a chemical explosive used to demolish buildings

Then we found out Firefighters and Police radioed hearing mulitple explosions after the planes already hit

Here is the way that the Supreme Court explained it in a 1947 case called Everson v. Board of Education. I am going to enumberate these 7 sentences, which the Court did not do in 1947.
1) Neither a state nor the Federal Government can set up a church.
2) Neither can pass laws which aid one religion, aid all religions, or prefer one religion over another.
3) Neither can force nor influence a person to go to or to remain away from church against his will or force him to profess a belief or disbelief in any religion.
4) No person can be punished for entertaining or professing religious beliefs or disbeliefs, for church attendance or non-attendance.
5) No tax in any amount, large or small, can be levied to support any religious activities or institutions, whatever they may be called, or whatever form they may adopt to teach or practice religion.

impeached? Yes clinton had an inpeachment trial but "President of the United States Bill Clinton was impeached by the House of Representatives on December 19, 1998, and acquitted by the Senate on February 12, 1999. " (source wikipedia) do you just not know what the word acquitted means? So if your small minds still don't get it if you are impeached you are gone from office from that day on so how did Clinton finish out his term in office then? I mean he had people to give pardons to at the end.

If I was a student I understand that they could enact sometime of enforcable punishment on me, but since I'm not what can they do? Do they report these citations to actual police officers who can gain access to these unpaid citations if i were to get pulled over?

During his presidency, Ronald Reagan brought an old battleship out of mothballs to practice gunboat diplomacy in Lebanon. Using its 18 inch guns and 1800 Marines he attempted to intimidate insurgents. Soon, the results of his policy became clear: over 200 Marines were dead from truck bombs.

Reagan "turned tail" (to use YA! terminology) and he "ran." He realized we should not be there, and the costs of a continued presence were too great.

Conservatives didn't criticize him then for this prudent, humble action.

Why don't today's Conservatives realize a hopeless military situation when they see one, and take the prudent, humble course of action that will protect America from losing its treasure, its unity and the lives of its soldiers?
