If only Orrin Hatch supported the constitution and held the Bush administration accountable for their many serious crimes. We know Hatch was concerned about lies under oath about bj’s

and he has the nerve to lecture someone about the constitution..what hypocrisy

I really do not visit Huffingtonwood very often. That is such a bunch of spin on Clintons visit. Turning Gore and Clintons efforts as “upstaging” instead of support for these young women and the Obama administration.

hollywood kind of hogwash

I just took a look at the Huffington Post. The banner headline in red states:
“Bill Upstages Hillary … Once Again”
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/

What a load of crap that headline is!

Conditioned response, the blood vessel thing. Oh, CT, there are better angels among us and in us. I really believe that. And I will never, ever, the longest day I live understand why/how a large segment of our population is so threatened by that. It simply does not compute. Thanks for being real with us!!

Yes, and I also like TBogg’s promise to Kim Jung Il, that we wouldn’t have a single harsh word for him if he took John Bolton. But, the blood vessels in my neck are already beginning to tighten and need to relish my better angels a little longer.

I agree. Laura Ling’s description of walking into the room and seeing the Big Dog was emotionally powerful.
Laura Ling really did an excellent job this morning. She was exceptionally composed and articulate.

i’d ask them, but i’m too much of a softy, I guess. I’m stuck at simply being embarrassed for them. they do not seem to respond to “gravity” in any sense of the word. they’re so mean-spirited, it’s worth a little pay-back in my book just to let them hang out there looking ridiculous wrecking their own house, and senate.

but there’s a limit to my tolerance for idiocy with vicious intent.

sessions, huckleberry, haggis, hatch, the batch: they wear the dunce cap so proudly. Astounding! Totally tone-deaf. Sick, sad, and inexcusable in any public forum, much less the exalted status they presume to command.
