The Dishonorable Leahy (Leaky Leahy) Wants An Investigation

I have lived over a half a century and at no time have I seen a pathetic CONgress as that which we have now, in these trying times.

Call me crass. Call me crude. Call me brass. Call me rude. I care not.

Leahy is an international embarrassment.

Never before have I witnessed a political party going after an administration such as we see now via ghosts and non-issues.

In a letter to the Inspector General, Leaky Leahy has the nerve and the audacity to continue chasing ghosts and another non-issue.

As in the case of Scooter Libby, this AG Gonzales issue is a Democratic Party and Moron Moonbat Fruit Loop Brigade led Witch Hunt. The BDS is so bad, it has clouded reason and good judgment. This is a nation at war and there are bigger fish and more pressing issues to "attack".

EVERY President has fired lawyers at their discretion and there are absolutely no "lines drawn in the sand" as to when the act transpires and I don't care what the "norm" has been thought to be. No one gave a rat's ass when Clinton did it or any other President, so what is the main malfunction in Leahy's pea-sized brain?

All this issue is, is this; a distraction maneuver to remove the public's attention away from the fact that the Democratic Party led CONgress, the Vaunted Majority that has accomplished not one single campaign promise of any substance, has proven to be an INTERNATIONAL embarrassment and have been on the wrong side of the war we are in after they had once been on the right side on the war. Flowing with the wind and changing directions in accordance with made-up and skewed polls is a massive misnomer and we in The New media have pointed this out time and time again. And, we will continue with said same.

This "demand" of an investigation by the Dishonorable Patrick "leaky" Leahy has BDS and the Whiner Syndrome all over it.

Enough "IS" enough Patty...enough is enough.

Let's win the war first and then you can have your ignorant pity parties at a later date...preferably in a rubber room.

Catch the buzz here at memeorandum and have fun reading the moonbat drivel soon to come.

Why The New York Times Can Legally Help The Enemy in The War on Terror

Why is that? Here is a "teaser" and after clicking the link provided, make your own determination and IF you have the moral fortitude, YOU will take the appropriate action accordingly.

As for myself, I agree with some folks when they demand that AG Gonzales should step down but for differing reasons. HE IS NOT DOING HIS DAMN JOB!!

There are laws on the books dealing in Subversion, Sedition, and Treason. In a time of war, the actions of the publishers, editors and owners of the now defunct "Main Stream Media" are subject to investigations for criminal activity and aiding and abetting the enemy; in this case, the Islamic Jihadists that declared war on the United States LONG before 91101.

In July 2007, the Washington Post gave a Hezbollah supporter full coverage of an online column on Jihadism, and in June 2007, both the New York Times and the Washington Post printed editorials by a Hamas figure.

This week, the New York Times has provided online columns on August 8 and August 9 dedicated to brainstorming new ideas on how Jihadists can attack and kill Americans. The New York Times author, Dr. Steven Levitt, a writer on economics, used his online August 8 column "If You Were a Terrorist, How Would You Attack?" to offer some new ideas to Jihadists on ways to murder Americans, and suggested some specific tactics that Jihadists can take to improve both the level of terror and effectiveness of such murders. Then Dr. Levitt invited the general public to offer their own suggestions on how Jihadists might be able to kill Americans, stating "I'm sure many readers have far better ideas. I would love to hear them." And disturbingly, many hundreds of readers obliged Dr. Levitt by offering horrific suggestions to help Jihadists. This was not yet enough for the New York Times, and so on August 9, Dr. Levitt wrote a second online column "Terrorism, Part II", where he defended his right to recommend murder ideas to terrorists, by explaining that there are a "virtually infinite" number of American vulnerabilities, and by claiming that the "terrorists are incompetent" or the "terrorism threat just isn't that great".

Not once in either column does Dr. Levitt ever use the word... "Jihad" or "Jihadists". In Dr. Levitt's view, the threat is only from incompetent criminals that he calls "terrorists", and that view of terrorists as mere "criminals" was echoed the same day by former NATO leader Wesley Clark in another New York Times column "Why Terrorists Aren't Soldiers".

Visit the blog and read the rest.

I, and others that have equal trepidation towards those that support the enemy, wonder why these cretins have not been charged with "crimes against the flag". Could it be that "Compassionate Conservatism" has no courage in this regard? I wonder.

United States Code
TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE
PART I - CRIMES
CHAPTER 115 - TREASON, SEDITION, AND SUBVERSIVE ACTIVITIES

Section 2382. Misprision of treason

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States and having knowledge of the commission of any treason against them, conceals and does not, as soon as may be, disclose and make known the same to the President or to some judge of the United States, or to the governor or to some judge or justice of a particular State, is guilty of misprision of treason and shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than seven years, or both.

Section 2388. Activities affecting armed forces during war

Whoever, when the United States is at war, willfully causes or attempts to cause insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty, in the military or naval forces of the United States, or

willfully obstructs the recruiting or enlistment service of the United States, to the injury of the service or the United States, or attempts to do so - Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

(b) If two or more persons conspire to violate subsection (a) of this section and one or more such persons do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each of the parties to such conspiracy shall be punished as provided in said subsection (a).

An amendment to 18 U.S.C. § 2385 which, taking specific cognizance of the current threat from Islam, establishes that the preaching of Jihad is tantamount to knowing and willful advocacy of “overthrowing or destroying the government of the United States”; that whoever, in accordance with the doctrine of Jihad, “prints, publishes, edits, issues, circulates, sells, distributes, or publicly displays any written or printed matter advocating, advising, or teaching the duty, necessity, desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or destroying any government in the United States” shall be “fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both, and shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof, for the five years next following his conviction.”

Any questions? Which CONgress Critters have violated The Law of The Land? Which Domestic Organizations have violated the Laws of The Land? Which Political Organizations outside the CONgress have violated The Laws of The Land? Which individual citizens have violated The Laws of The Land? Have we no men left in DC or are there only cowards remaining? (btw, I was present when these similarly spoken words were uttered a few years back). Don't believe it? Tough.

So Sad Leaky Leahy

More on the non-issue issue with the lawyer firings. Good grief. The Party of Corruption sure is working hard at proving their stupidity.

I guess they have never heard of that lawyer-client privilege thing.

Leahy issues subpoena for Rove

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) Thursday issued a subpoena for top White House adviser Karl Rove to compel him to testify about the firing of several U.S. attorneys.

“The evidence shows that senior White House political operatives were focused on the political impact of federal prosecutions and whether federal prosecutors were doing enough to bring partisan voter fraud and corruption cases,” Leahy said. “It is obvious that the reasons given for the firings of these prosecutors were contrived as part of a cover-up and that the stonewalling by the White House is part and parcel of that same effort.”

SO WHAT!!

Good For GWB!

Why the man doesn't show more backbone EVERY DAY is a mystery!

ABC Breaking News:

President Bush invoked executive privilege Monday to deny requests by Congress for testimony from two former aides in connection with the firings of federal prosecutors.

I find it "Rather" interesting how such a non-issue as this is still an issue with the friggin' mutants of the Leftinistra. Haven't they seen their dwindling approval ratings recently? Morons.

UPDATE...7/9...1050 hours. CBS is kinda late on the ball here but here it IS anyway:

Bush Fires First Shot At Congress

In the first of several contentious battles on tap between Congress and the White House, President Bush has invoked executive privilege to deny testimony from two former high-level aides regarding their role in the firings of U.S. attorneys. More...






And there yas have it. The Legislative Branch will do its best to rewrite the Constitution.

In a letter to the heads of the House and Senate Judiciary panels, White House counsel Fred Fielding insisted that Mr. Bush was acting in good faith and refused lawmakers' demand that the president explain the basis for invoking the privilege.

"You may be assured that the president's assertion here comports with prior practices in similar contexts, and that it has been appropriately documented," the letter said.

Retorted House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers:

"Contrary what the White House may believe, it is the Congress and the courts that will decide whether an invocation of executive privilege is valid, not the White House unilaterally," the Michigan Democrat said in a statement.

The exchange Monday was the latest step in a slow-motion legal waltz between the White House and lawmakers toward eventual contempt-of-Congress citations. If neither side yields, the matter could land in federal court.

I am sick and tired of hearing of the fired attorneys. So what? People get fired EVERY day! What is the BIG STINK?

This is yet ANOTHER “distraction” issue invented by the Leftinistra Moonbats. And if President Bush, et al, want to cower in fear, so be it and they deserve EVERYTHING that comes of it. But what of the American People? Why should we have to suffer the consequences of a cowering leadership?

Makes me want to upchuck. How about y’all? Had enough? Vomit with me…misery likes company.

Clinton fired just about EVERYBODY and so has EVERY President. What in the HELL is the issue? The issue is KILL GEORGE. Morons.

Political power, gain and control is what this non-issue is all about…PERIOD!!

I just wish GWB would stand up and say, “I am mad as hell and I am NOT going to take this anymore!”

Mike Gallagher has a good read here: read it…NOW!!

“…Once again, Democrats have seized upon a nonissue as a way to beat up the Bush administration, and once again, weak-kneed Republicans have cowered in fear over the contrived controversy.

The way Democrats have reacted to the alleged problems surrounding the totally legitimate firings of eight U.S. attorneys is one of the biggest examples of “chutzpah” ever…”
