RE: Criminality is at the heart of the Bush Administration
I'm personally disappointed that Mr. Brown Baby is still in business. Maybe a couple of child molesters can join the administration to keep him company.
WASHINGTON - The recent indictment of Vice President Cheney's top aide has struck a nerve with the American public. Four in five, 79 percent, said the indictment of former Cheney aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby on perjury and other charges is important to the nation, according to a poll by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press. Pew noted that in September 1998, 65 percent said President Clinton's lies under oath were important. Clinton was impeached over his handling of an affair with Monica Lewinsky, but was acquitted by the Senate on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice.
Libby was charged with lying to investigators and a grand jury during an investigation of his role in revealing the identity of CIA officer Valerie Plame, wife of an outspoken critic of the war against Iraq.
Most Americans, six in 10, say they do not think the news about Libby's indictment has gotten too much coverage.
The concerns about Libby's case come at a time that a growing number of people, 43 percent, now say U.S. and British leaders were mostly lying when they claimed before the Iraq war that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, while an equal number said they were misinformed by bad intelligence.
That's up from 31 percent who felt in February 2004 that the leaders were lying, while 49 percent said they got bad intelligence.
Two-thirds of Democrats say U.S. and British political leaders were lying about weapons of mass destruction and half of independents feel that way. Only one in 10 Republicans said that was the case.
The telephone poll of 1,201 adults was taken Nov. 3-6 and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

RE: Criminality is at the heart of the Bush Administration
Do you think the constant barrage of unsubstantiated, and bogus stories has had any effect?
My memory fails me, but the dems have been throwing a lot of stuff, trying to find something that sticks. Its a sad thing that the ONLY thing dems offer is accusations of presidential wrong doing.
The National Guaerd story was one that is without evidence ( at least credible evidence)
The lies that the National Guard is all over in Iraq, and thus unavaliable for stateside service has been disproved by the National Guard's own numbers.
The accusation that Bush was slow in response to Katrina has been shown to be false--that the slowness was due to La governor's failure to request aid.
There are many others, but you have set a poor precedent .

You aren't serious about the response to Katrina are you? It's well documented that the LA governor requested aid before the storm even peaked. Tell us about the many others. What claims have not had any merit? There is a very good reason the president's poll numbers are in the toilet, and it's not because of a "liberal" media.

According to the democrats and the liberal media, we would be engaged in some military action in Iraq. Can anyone substantiate this?

She did make a verbal request for " all you got". But not the specific request required by the posse cometatus (spelling) act. She was grilled on this point, and it seems clear that she did not do what was reuired.

No my side, my side, my side! [:p]
Actually what does the gov. of LA matter when you focus on the defecit and the lost american lives for cheap gas that isn't. Who cares how the hypocritical Bushco empire fails, just as long as it fails.

What a load. All that was required on her part was the declaration of emergency, that was done. The rest was up to Brownie and Cherkoff. Federal relief fell on it's face. Why do you make so many excuses for this corrupt administration? You are enabling them if you won't allow them to be responsible.
