Republicans Block Symbolic Measure Against Embattled Attorney General

Rush, O'Reilly, Hannity, Savage, these individuals are given national airtime to campaign against liberalism and keep the masses fired up against any kind of progressive thinking. Posted by AaaBee at 02:49 PM : Jun 12, 2007

And you guys have the MSM (both TV and print), 90% of the "news" magazines, CNN, MSNBC, BBC, AP.......and you're STILL NOT HAPPY!

Libs will NEVER be satisfied!!!!

And for the record, cupcake, they are not GIVEN airtime. They are run on a profitable basis......that is, they have a popular show and companies pay to advertise. See, it's called America.

No one is interested in listening to whining libs degrading the country and it's elected officials (see Airhead America) so they don't have these shows. See how it works?

[tejasdemo]

am on your side, but I disagree with you entirely. The GOP is supported by a country full of people who think, or are told to think, that liberalism is bad, wrong, immoral, anti-religion, ect.

Rush, O'Reilly, Hannity, Savage, these individuals are given national airtime to campaign against liberalism and keep the masses fired up against any kind of progressive thinking. Is there a national liberal Talk Radio? (Some would say NPR, but the NPR schedule is available only in selective places, AL plays classical music most of the time.) I%u2019ve heard liberal-bashing on Christian radio by nationally known religious figures. Anything BUT conservatism is made to seem "bad" by biased sources.

I don't believe Bush is the crux in this dangerous point American politics is currently in, and I do not believe his leaving office will stop the trend of the GOP working to central power within their party. Their party is strong, with very powerful backers that can play outside the rules with little backlash. The GOP is throwing us deliberately out of balance with their power grabbing agenda while their campaign of using liberals as "the enemy" successfully draws attention away from their anti-American actions. American Republicans will support the GOP because they are given something else to hate more.

Unfortunately, many of these people will never understand any of this. Sometimes, people believe what they want to believe and ignore the truth.

Yea, like right wing nazi republicans who think Clinton is to blame for everything. 9/11 happened while the Republicans were in complete charge of the government. Iraq and all the death associated with it is a direct result of the republicans. That is the truth. Why dont you guys figure out how to blame Clinton for the Kennedy assasination.

Attaboys! Fall back on the blame 'er on Clinton line. Compare our economy & deficits, our standing in the world, and the situation in Iraq and Israel under Clinton to the current regime. Clinton had Saddam Hussein completely weakened and isolated. The fact they found zero weapons of mass destruction merely confirms the reality: Hussein possessed no power nor allies and posed no threat to the region. Now thanks to Sir Lies-Alot and the rest of the Administration That Couldn't Shoot Straight, Iraq stands in utter chaos and has destabilized the entire region. Bravo neocons! Iran has a stronger hand than ever; the Saudis continue to fund the Sunni insurgency, the Kurds and Turks lurk on the fringe of outright warfare, and radical terrorist groups from al Qaeda in Iraq to Hamas have gained more recruitment power than ever. And as far as 9-11 goes, read Richard Clarke's book "Against All Enemies," see how he portrays the clueless Condi and the rest of the Bush administration, and then tell me the Clinton's people would have ignored PDB's that stated "Osama bin Laden Determined to Strike Targets in the United States." Tell me that Clinton would have stood there dumbfounded while plane after hijacked plane made U-turns in the skies without being confronted by NORAD.

Whose truth?

WASHINGTON -- President Bush has quietly claimed the authority to disobey more than 750 laws enacted since he took office, asserting that he has the power to set aside any statute passed by Congress when it conflicts with his interpretation of the Constitution.

Among the laws Bush said he can ignore are military rules and regulations, affirmative-action provisions, requirements that Congress be told about immigration services problems, ''whistle-blower" protections for nuclear regulatory officials, and safeguards against political interference in federally funded research.

Legal scholars say the scope and aggression of Bush's assertions that he can bypass laws represent a concerted effort to expand his power at the expense of Congress, upsetting the balance between the branches of government. The Constitution is clear in assigning to Congress the power to write the laws and to the president a duty ''to take care that the laws be faithfully executed." Bush, however, has repeatedly declared that he does not need to ''execute" a law he believes is unconstitutional.

Former administration officials contend that just because Bush reserves the right to disobey a law does not mean he is not enforcing it: In many cases, he is simply asserting his belief that a certain requirement encroaches on presidential power.

Pardon me. Harry's comment was "undocumented Americans". If that doesn't speak of amnesty I don't know what does.

I know!!!!! Did you catch that?!?!?!? Is Reid an absolute idiot or what? Come 2008, HIS worthless a*s is going to be "undocumented".

The left wing libs are thru with him. The right NEVER had any use for him. Besides himself and his mother, I'm not sure who will vote for him.

I called his office earlier today on this. And I told his staff member that his rating just dropped another 5% which means if it goes any lower, maybe he too will disappear.

A match at last. The lopsided George Soros type of the MoveOn.Org. who sees the right as a dangerous machine while all the time never alluding to the lefties and their backer George Soros who sees the United States as the only obstacle to a new world order and the left wing numgnut. A match made in . . .well we know you people don't believe in the afterlife.

[mudrose-2009]

Oh, and you've got the name calling down really well too. Dont let the facts or morality get in your way of makin a buck now either.
Adios mudrose. For a second there, it was fun.

Hey, pot, I'm kettle. I'm what?

I truly think Republicans are people who are not prepared to live in a world that can change so quickly, and where the truth is harder to hide.

It%u2019s time to open the door for tolerance, compassion, understanding, and debate.

Real debate!
No B.S. angry Republican rhetoric whose goals are not to educate but to instill fear, or belittle.

I believe the last few elections were the last gasp for Republicans, a party that has lost all meaning and whose construct has been %u201Cgiven to god%u201D or %u201Csold to the corporations%u201D.
