Down the Rabbit Hole, Vol. 1

Wed. May 20, 2009
I was wondering when someone would get to the point of
Old Newt's demise…he is an ethically challenged ex-lawmaker who left the Speakership position in shame. He also lied about his object of shame before being forced to admit his wrongdoing.
God, I just don't understand the Republicans.
Everyone else gets hung out to dry on the line of personal ethics but them.
So Newt found a hole he can crawl through and wants to throw stones at someone else – why not Pelosi, she seems to be the target de jour – to be able to regain his 15 minutes and sell his book.
Why should this surprise anyone?
Maybe it's just me, but I see this as a left over issue from the Bush/Cheney regime that Pelosi got caught in the middle of.
The CIA cannot even verify that the briefings the Republicans are up in arms about actually took place…and to me, might be a product of the Republican smear mongers more than events that took place.
The Republicans are now calling for all these documents to be released.
Hmmmmmmmm…..there's a fatal flaw there for anyone who cares to look.
So, I'm wondering if all these Rush/Steele following lemmings understand the consequences of following these 2 morons blindly.
See, both Rush and Steele are "entertainers" – neither sets policy for the Republican party – but do their job by keeping the public focused on insipid mellow drama.
This business about torture will eventually come back to fall directly in Cheney's lap. He might even go to prison.
