The Skinny: Retirement Season Hits Republicans Hard; Being In Minority "Not That Much Fun"

The Looting of Foster''s office
While the U.S. Park Police (a unit not equipped for a proper homicide investigation) studied the body, Foster''s office at the White House was being looted. Secret Service agent Henry O'' Neill watched as Hillary Clinton''s chief of staff, Margaret Williams, carried boxes of papers out of Vincent Foster''s office before the Park Police showed up to seal it. Amazing when you consider that the official identification of Vincent Foster''s body by Craig Livingstone did not take place until 10PM! Speaking of Craig Livingstone, another Secret Serviceman saw him remove items from Vincent Foster''s office in violation of the official seal. Witnesses also saw Bernard Nussbaum in Foster''s office as well. Three witnesses noted that Patsy Thomason, director of the White House''s Office of Administration, was desperate to find the combination to Vincent Foster''s safe. Ms. Thomason finally opened the safe, apparently with the help of a special "MIG" technical team signed into the White House in the late hours. Two envelopes reported to be in the safe by Foster''s secretary Deborah Gorham, addressed to Janet Reno and to William Kennedy III, were never seen again. When asked the next day regarding rumors of the safe opening, Mack McLarty told reporters Foster''s office did not even have a safe, a claim immediately shot down by former occupants of that office.

They''ve skimmed their money off the top via kickbacks and bribes and now many of them are going to relax and enjoy life on the money, much of it war blood money, that they''ve stolen from Americans taxpayers. The republicans are no longer a political party, they are nothing more then a crime family. Esp the head parasite blood filled tick Di*ck Cheney. Even our own government admits that there is more then $9 billion missing that was allocated for this insane war and another $11 billion in oil revenues gone too. Anyone who doesn''t think that a huge portion of that has made it into Cheney''s and Bush''s off-shore bank accounts is worse then naive, they''re dangerously stupid. Bush''s and Cheney''s great-grandchildren will still be spending money dripping in our troops blood. Congrats America! The Bush/Cheney/Republican crime family has scr*wed you in the backside! You''ve been had! You''ve been taken! You''ve been conned! You''ve been robbed! And all it cost you was 3 trillion dollars in debt and the lives of 3,000 of your young men and women in uniform for them to pull this theft off. How does it feel?

"I don''t like being in the minority," said Rep. Ray LaHood, R-Ill., who was first elected in the 1994 landslide and will retire this term. "It''s not that much fun, and the prospects of the future don''t look that good."

We didn''t elect these idiots to have fun! We elected them to do a job. Poor Ray LaHood must not have gotten as many party invitations as he wanted. What a bunch of prima donas!

LOOK WHO BROKE THE CONSTITUTION
GOP targeting Clinton on phone-call snooping
Republicans plan to seize on an allegation from the 1992 presidential campaign to tarnish Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) on the red-hot issue of government surveillance.
Government surveillance will be at the forefront of the political debate this fall as congressional Democrats and President Bush square off over legislation allowing electronic spying on U.S. soil without a warrant.
Republicans are focusing on an allegation in a recent book by two Pulitzer Prize-winning reporters, which suggests Clinton listened to a secretly recorded conversation between political opponents.

If it''''s not "fun" then split, right ? Like the ''''60''''s "if it feels good do it" ethic they loved to bash. HIPOCRITES all. Talk about CUT AND RUN.

Yeah, they''re taking their ball and going home. But on the bright side, maybe Congress will get something done without all the obstructionists to contend with.

Why shouldn%u2019t they leave? Their work is done.
They have destroyed America.
There is nothing left to %u201Caccomplish%u201D.

God I hate the Republicans. It''s not "fun" being in the minority, nobody who''s "smart" would do it. What happened to SERVING YOUR COUNTRY - what happened to REPRESENTING YOUR CONSTITUENTS - oh no, it''s all about the POWER and the PERKS. No prime seats for them at the next Inauguration, no balls, no parade reviewing stands. The lobbyists don''t shower you with meals and gifts if you can''t deliver their language in a bill. These guys shut the Democrats out completely for nearly eight years and they know what''s coming their way. They sucked all the blood out of this dog and now they''re looking for another one. Out of their own stupid mouths comes their damnation. They hate the government and only wanted some of the spoils as they dished out money to their friends. They took us to war, they took us into record deficits, but who cares ? If it''s not "fun" then split, right ? Like the ''60''s "if it feels good do it" ethic they loved to bash. HIPOCRITES all. Talk about CUT AND RUN.

Don''t worry, the GOP may be losing Congress and the White House due to their own massive corruption and incompetence but they''ll still exercise great influence in prison cells, ***********, and bathroom stalls around this great nation.

Academia is a giant welfare scheme, it''''s filled with Yellow Dog Progressives.

At least academia is not outsourced to Corporate America on the tapxayers dime, as is your Military Welfare Complex.

Yellow Dog sounds like a Southern term. Never heard it used in the USA. But I can understand how it would be used in the Fascist Southern Welfare States, where jingoism is the rule of the day.
