James Comey testifies before Senate Judiciary

[bobster451]

Most of the Bush administration were criminal.

They do belong in jail.

Especially Cheney!

[KoreyAusTex]

What do you expect from thugs, Bush and his ilk are criminals, they are no different than the mafia.

[GovtAccountability]

Not necessary, that is, unless you're a crook and out to control your own citizens.

[GovtAccountability]

The problem was, if you actually listen to his testimony, that the program was unconstitutional. This is a first hand account of Bush and his cronies taking extreme measures to bend the laws to suit their interests. It's not necessary to expand wiretapping laws, they are already extremely lenient.

[GTTofAK]

Why is it so outragous? The program had to be approved that day. I know Ashcroft wsa in the hospital but it couldn't wait.

[boyboy142]

It didn't have to be passed that day. It didn't have to be signed off by Ashcroft, there was an acting AG.

[blutemple]

One by one the shady little men behind the curtain are being revealed - and they've got to go!! Starting w/ Mr. Gonzalez. Share this video with other intelligent people!!!

[sppac]

Why hasn't our "free" press reported on this?

[Ruby1978]

This is truly unbelievable. Comey is not some left wing nut, he is a Republican, this is absolutely outrageous. If this doesn't show the wire tap program was illegal, then what does?? What is going on here? Why don't people know this? I have a new found respect for Ashcroft.

[mchsteel]

The most clearly impeachable offense in the history of the United States of America. How is this not the only story that is being reported. This is the president attempting to illegally circumvent the justice department. Where is the press coverage? Where is the justice? Where is the outrage? What the hell is the Congress doing to follow up with impeachment hearings.

[ViaParadox]

I've been searching for video too. Would a writing campaign to C-SPAN (+ others) do any good.

In the 70's the media was all over such stories, relentless. Now they're too busy with Paris Hilton, American Idol. Shame on them! United, people can fight pressure. If Nixon were alive, he'd be jealous of Bush.

[wordgeezer]

Adios' Alberto and on to Porkrind (Rove)

We've got bigger fish to fry, mainly Cheney...(:

[ViaParadox]

I'm afraid 'Adios' is premature. Administration must be putting tremendous pressure on media now. Hiding this story is their only hope. Gonzo + Rove are probably the 2 men Bush is absolutely determined to keep around him. Expanded public knowledge will back Bush into a tiny corner and who knows what he'll do? He thinks he's an ultimate Ruler, chosen by God. We may be weeks away from THE crisis.

[marielacal45]

This is just OUTRAGEOUS! Gonzo Should have been Kicked out, and bush Should be Impeached!

[teargarden]

What is even more gross is the thought of how few people know about this story. If this was about Clinton and a whore it would be international news being told 24 hours a day and FOX News would have their own show about it. IMPEACH!

[ilextree]

This is stunning. Tell as many people as you can to watch and read the Washington Post transcripts.  THis WILL bring down the criminal bush family and their minions.

[gaxegy]

Wolfowitz <- you've just been fired for ethics violations.

Gonzales <- you're next, you crooked little turd.

[dawg9]

Not only were they not in a SCIF but i didn't hear him mention them asking mrs. ashcroft to leave the room either.

[mcob1]

inuk--nothing there, they destroyed the tpe.

[mcob1]

it should be front and center on C-span. I'll try inuk's advice, but I couldn't find it the first time.

[peeklip]

As a commenter at TPM say's,"So let me get this straight... Card and Gonzales were discussing a top secret, codeword classified program in a DC hospital? Was this hospital room in a (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) SCIF?"

[GawdMachine]

Great question peek. I say, since Alberto thinks torture is ok,.. we put him back up on the stand & every time he doesn't give a straightforward answer to a yes or no question within 10 seconds, or says, ("um" or "I don't know"), we waterboard his ass. Him & ALL THE SCUMBAG TRAITOR VERMIN!!!

[peeklip]

Thank-you for this, I missed it, and couldn't find it anywhere even after much time looking. Certainly this would be explosive testimony if only the media would cover it.

[inuknotofuk]

I finally found a page on C-span's website (strange this is not on the recent videos)anyway, as I can't post url, go to cspan homepage, under web resources choose senate then, from list of committees choose judiciary, then choose "Preserving Prosecutorial Independence...there is a webcast, I couldn't make it work, better luck to you though!
