[sprintlawler]

I have met st shumer and he is a fine man.

i have watch every senate and house oversight

hearings. he has worked his tail off trying to catchbush and his crooked henchmen

[Serglish]

All these people are politicians, so they lie and are durty of something.

[peteykkk]

Senator Schuman is the reason why white people hate jews. People like schuman will do anything for a nickle. He is the epitome of dirty scum!

don't forget your buddy Mark Foley dipshit. You really are full of crap. Stop telling lies and tell it like it is. Gonzalez messed up. only thing he is upset about is that he got caught.

[a1scam]

"Hypocrisy in anything whatever may deceive the cleverest and most penetrating man, but the least wide-awake of children recognizes it, and is revolted by it, however ingeniously it may be disguised."

"REVOLTED BY IT..."

[NOMIND101]

Ploy gets Bush out, placates public WITHOUT telling 911 Truth. Globalization/WAR agenda goes with percieved "friendly" such as Hillary. USA=1 PARTY SYSTEM. CORPORATE PARTY. PERIOD. DEM/REPUB=POLITICAL THEATER TO MASK REALITY. Demand 911 Truth NO MATTER WHO IS PREZ. Research. Think for YS. Can replicate and PROVE basic science FACTS. "Talking heads" reduced science to opinion in past few years. This is fallacy. Basic physics + video evidence PROVE how towers and BLDG7 came down.

[CanAm2002]

Stick with facts and do what is honest and good will always prevail. When I see good men like Schumacher doing these things, it restores my faith in this wonderful country. Thank you.

Democrat Eddie Jordan, New Orleans' first back district attorney, is taken to court by 44 whites who say they were illegally fired for being white when he took office and replaced by blacks; racial discrimination trial opens in federal court.

A jury ruled that a black New Orleans district attorney Eddie Jordan democrat discriminated against 43 whites when he replaced them all with blacks.

[elected12]

Result: Eddie Jordan keeps his job. Taxpayers have to pay for him being a racist. Crime rate goes thought the roof. Where's all the hoopla for this crime.

[SKYTRAIN1]

Karl Rove should serve a tour at Guantanamo as an inmate!!!!

[desertcafe]

This bullshit has gone on too long. IMPEACH THE BASTARDS, ONE AND ALL!

[guerone]

Dont try and sound smart now, after you previously made ignorant HATE slurs. Your a Republican as in Domestic Spying, Warentless Search, Torture Rendition, Gitmo, Secret CIA Prisons, Depleted Uranium Bombs, Suspended Habius Corpus, Rampant DOJ Cronyism, Widespread Congressional Bribery, No-Bid Iraq Contracts, Privatized Mercanery Troops, Privatized Social Security, Walter Reed Rats, Treasonous Leak of CIA agents ID, ETC... WHO IS THE FASCIST

[MKB2814]

The difference, as you tend to cite, is a congress dedciated to rigorous oversight. If a company like Halliburton has nothing to hide, why the sudden need to move to Dubai?Republican love to point out hypocracy, but then bitch and moan when they're found out. Now go dust off some more issues from a decade ago. Whiny bitch

[wntoply6]

i never said you hide your opinions, but you do, it5lee, pull em out of your ass. and you do live in a fantasy land if not closet. "babling bitchy little school girl" sounds more like you southern neo cons. the more you speak, the deeper the hole you dig. keep it up...hell comes before china!

[MKB2814]

So they did the same with Libby. Like Capone too, just more of a national security compromise.

Go ahead, dust off more Clinton facts from a decade ago. Today, the issue is an administration that mismanaged a war and compromised intelligence programs. Perhaps they will have the same fair and rigorous hearings the GOP demanded on Clinton.

[wntoply6]

you're just a sick neo con cookie it5lee. if you don't lie, you make up a hell of a lot of shit to try to defend your religion and your politics. just look how you have to defend your dumb statements to everyone in the commentary section.  you are continuously wrong, wrong and then wrong again. give it up...tell the truth.

[billbacon]

lt5lee it's time you go fill your journal and work out your issues. State your facts and get the hell off. So far all I've read from you is vacuous opinion.

[laleeloolelo]

Well whoever is right about this i think it's gonna be interesting to see how it all ends up.

[wntoply6]

It5lee are you really as sick as i think you are. you are in my book, no longer able to comment on anything EXCEPT the way you shit. you are a poor excuse even for a southern republican. you ignorant, lying, hateful, bigoted, led by your preacher's nose neo con.

[MKB2814]

Go dust off off all those old chestnuts from over a decade ago with all them Democrat scandals. Believe it or not, there are fair and impartial juries as well as competent prosecutors. Fitzgerald's record on cases is anything but partisan. You'll dig for some minutae in the meantime to say different

If you do happen to mention Jeffers, just remind yourself that many GOP House members rushed to his defnse, including Hastert the Hutt

[laleeloolelo]

Did you watch the news lately Valerie Plame just testified in congress about her blown up cover, i guess Fred Thompson would be glad to know this "witch" is really covert and this "witch hunt" isn't for nothing.

[wntoply6]

wow, even bush's attorney general is a crook. when that happens it's a free for all for the rest of them to do what the hell they want. cheney is a crook, as was the sec. of defense, "brownie" was inept, should i go on. you have no stones to throw, other that the usual...deny, deny, deny, then blame the rest on clinton.

[wntoply6]

hey it5lee, you're straight, so i don't give a fuck about your nasty ugly butt. i do care that you're always wrong about g.w. bush. this guy and his cronies have done so many misdeeds in the last 6 years, if it didn't involve so many lives (from NYC, to N.O. to Iraq to S.Africa, to Afganistan) it would be laughable.

[MKB2814]

The only posting from a whiny bitch is out of your conservative hole. Now start reminding me about all those crooked congressman in the early 90's (Frank, Studds, Doolittle, Boehner) and how Clinton lied about a blow job again.

[MKB2814]

Was that when Newt was cheating on his wife?

[laleeloolelo]

Maybe fg25064 tries to point out the irony of republican supporters that tries to use US foreign policy during WW2, Korean and Vietnam war to justify war in Iraq while the administration that made those policies are democrat.

[laleeloolelo]

"Sources told The San Diego Union-Tribune that it was the result not of her high-profile white-collar investigations, but of something much more basic.

"

So she won a high profile case but got fired anyway because she doesn't prosecute enough small fries, again how logical is that?

[laleeloolelo]

" When they lose easy court cases they should be fired"

What easy court cases did any of the fired attorney lose that's the fact i want to dispute.

[whiteypowers]

Google Republican Sacandal Stats

[fg25064]

A little information, President Roosevlt was the Commander in Chief in W.W.II, a democrat. Korean War, President Truman, a democrat. Linden Johnson also democrat, Viet Nam. Bay of Pigs,President Kennedy also a democrat

[fg25064]

did we forget clinton fired all the lawyers when he was the president? DEMS ARE LIERS

[pvhastings]

Maybe so, maybe not. Either way - it obvious Bush did it for political purposes. How does it feel to be a Nazi, or are you still in denial?

[VaginalMcGruder]

blowjobs vs. war crimes hmmmm. I'm so sick of the right wingers trying to justify what is going on in the world today by bringing up mistakes Clinton made. Give me a break! The lies are finally being exposed. And hopefully all those fuckers will be prosecuted!!!!

[willb48]

It is customary to replace all the U.S. Attorneys when a new president rides into town.

[laleeloolelo]

The problem is those attorneys are replaced in the middle of the presidential term under suspicious circumstances (Carol Lam is successful in convicting Duke Cunningham and David iglesias refused to prosecute charges of alleged democrat voter fraud).

[whiteypowers]

Two words: spell check.

[MKB2814]

Yeah you definitely hate Clinton, no surprise there. The difference is Bush has a more powerful daddy and more political manipulation to blur his potential crimes. He's so "trustworthy", urge your senator and congressman to put George W. Bush under oath and answer all these current scandals accurately. Yet you'll just say it's a witch hunt, just not like the blow-job impeachment of Clinton, cause "that's justice"

[MKB2814]

Yeah, you keep relying on all those old stats. While you're at it, mention Bush's DUI in Maine, W's cocaine use, Kennedy's Chappaquidick incident (vehicular manslaughter is something he has in common with Laura Bush), and both of Cheney's DUIs in Wyoming. Then hopefully Halliburton will be called in to testify where all the money in Iraq is going before they decide to move their headquarters to Dubai as planned.

[s7rugg1e]

This is getting really old.

[wntoply6]

you get your facts from the shit you pull out of your ass it5lee. it is no contest to debate (ha) you, so i don't have to show you a damn thing.

[rtsmiff]

Wow, there sure are alot of tightass republicans watching Youtube. Face it, the President and everyone he has surrounded himself with are all crooked as hell.

[isaachaze1]

well, i don't know if this is "proof," but why did chief of staff kyle sampson resign? because he was tired of the job and wanted to spend more time with his family? give me a break...

[2cpus4me]

It doesn't matter if Rove, Cheney, and the President or his Dad made the decision. Presidential Appointment allows Bush to do this, regardless of Schuckster or Nancy's opinion.

[MKB2814]

Irve Libby perjured himself. He lied about his involvement in the CIA leak that compromised an entire CIA program's intelligence gathering. he contradicted himself under oath.

[MKB2814]

Libby lied under oath. The same crime Clinton was impeached on.

If the Bush Administration received the same, rigorous oversight the Republican House applied to Bush, (complete with the same amount of swearing under oath), there might be sevral grounds in which the Bush Administration perjured itself as well. There's still time.

[MKB2814]

What you are blurring is that Clinton fired them at the beginning of his first term. Reagan and both Bushes did the same thing upon taking office. That is a typical practice.

The conflict of interest in W's and Gonzales is that these firings were suspiciously done out of political discrimination and alleged electoral advantage for the GOP. Two Republican politicians, a senator and congresswoman, may also be associated with this unorthodox maneuver.

[sidonie3]

The dems are at it again. The American people will turn on them--again.

[MKB2814]

Exactly what are they "at again"?

The past six years of incompetence is the legacy of a Republican only controlled government. Whether execution of justice, military procedure, disaster response, financial crisis, or even strenthening military and intelligence, all those failings happened under Bush and the Republican's watch.

You fail to see the point completely and hide behind rhetorical double-speak.

[ljoreilly]

This is part of criminalizing the republican party. all presidents have the right to replace whoever they want to. Please show me where it says that the replacements have to happen soon after inauguration.

for what I can gather the reason that they were fired was due to failure to investigate voting fraud in the last election. Where has the outrage been in the past when this happens?

[antiNAU]

"This is part of criminalizing the republican party." Is that you Hannity?

[ljoreilly]

I can only assume that you too listen to hannity? Or is it time to move on.

[antiNAU]

I am way out numbered at family gatherings. I find it useful for debate purposes, to hear what the other side is saying. I encourage them to listen to our side ocassionally, but they don't. Fox is like the bible to them.

[ljoreilly]

I agree, I listen to both Hannity and Colmbs. Rush is too much most of the time. Did you want to debate something or is this just informational.

[OxFFFF]

Schumer is a fucking douchebag...

[cadillac123456789]

And just think, Bush wanted Harriet Meyers on the SCOTUS...

[guerone]

Are you talking about killing liberal leaders to silence their views?

YOU SON ARE A NAZI FACIST. AND A FEARFULL HOMOPHOBIC BIGOT

[sidonie3]

Pure projection.

[EchelonMonitor]

On August 17, 2006, Federal Judge Anna Diggs Taylor of the United States District Court ruled that President Bush had "undisputedly violated" not only the First and Fourth Amendments of the Constitution, but also the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

Violating the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is a felony punishable by a $10,000 fine and five years in prison.

[EchelonMonitor]

This is just the tip of the iceberg--google: Lawrence King Bush Grand Old Perverts Grand Old Pedophiles "detainee bill" "unlawful enemy combatant" Harriman Dulles Bush Nazi Nixon autopsy reports aclu John O'Neill FBI molten steel wtc sold nuclear technology to Iran Rumsfeld sold nuclear technology to north korea Rumsfeld

[EchelonMonitor]

Clinton isn't president, or haven't you noticed through your self-righteous sense of outrage that he got a bj and you didn't?

[EchelonMonitor]

You guys always try to defend Bush by screaming "CLINTON!!!"

lol, who gaf about Clinton? Oh well, Republicans suck and Democrats get sucked--they all lie about it.

You're all so 90's

[laleeloolelo]

"If Gonzalez was so bad, how do you explain the conviction of Duke & Libby? "

Carol Lam the US attorney who manage to get conviction in Cunningham case got fired and as for Libby, well the president can pardon him so Gonzales doesn't need to do anything.

[laleeloolelo]

The Libby "witch hunt" manage to have him convicted while the Clinton witch hunt only made him more popular and failed to convict him, it seems that the republican are still bitter about that.

[laleeloolelo]

What cherry picking? firing attorneys that get mostly glowing reviews is like expelling a student who gets mostly A's but only get one D, how logical is that?

[laleeloolelo]

"If you are a major screw up, should you keep your job?"

Can you explain explain to us what screw up did Carol Lam , David Iglesias and other fired US attorneys did that made them fired?

[ivomusic]

...and to the genious quote:

" jazzdicekey (2 hours ago)

Law is Power!

Bush is the law!

Bush will win the game!"

I can only say: "...and so thought Hitler"...

[Mylth]

Good on them. The courts and the Fed need to remain free from meddling

[jazzdicekey]

Law is Power!

Bush is the law!

Bush will win the game!

[lovuian]

Thats what Scooter Libby said Tom Delay Abrahamhoff Duke Cunningham and now the resignation of Gonzalez's underling. Oh just can't wait to watch Rove testify under Oath... Just have to wait and see if they broke the law Abuse of Power Obstruction of Justice Lying to Congress

[kevlar1968]

Wow, I've never seen such a blatant cry for dictatorship.

Why do you feel like we need someone with that kind of power? Our government was designed to keep individuals from acquiring too much power.

[bajalocom]

Time to impeach BUSH. VIVA LA LIBERTA!!! (FREEDOM)

[isaachaze1]

i suspect you have little knowledge about the practice of law. it's never a viable defense to argue, "hey, this guy over here did the same thing..." clinton is not before us any longer. what he did or didn't do is irrelevant. in addition, whether bush had the right to replace the "fed attys" or not, i do not believe his administration had the right to lie about why they were terminated in the first place, as it appears they did...

[cresta141]

It5lee: You can lie to yourself forever. That will not stop the truth. Soon you'll realize how heads will continue to roll. When you fail to protect the laws you swear to protect, you are guilty. It is laughable to learn now that the Republican speaker of the house accusing Clinton, having sex with Monica, while he was betraying his wife with another woman. Same as Mark Foley speaking against gays and he was gay involved with a male pages.

You may Keep barking, will not change the truth.

[sagebrushchuck]

yeah fuck it! constitutions are for pussies. Go BUSH!!! There is a difference between firing them all and firing those that only investigate republicans. And for the last time Clinton isn't in office anymore, I'll just opt out of any responsiblity in the democratic party by blaming it all on nixon, moron.

[mrflo2219]

sdlfjasd;l:OIUj?

[lovuian]

Listen to Shumer on the tape

Abuse of power

[fishhead06]

With pitbulls like Schumer, Feingold, and Feinstein on the Judiciary Cmmte, will it be long before the push begins for impeachment? God, I hope so.

[whiteypowers]

Kevin Starr spent Two years and forty million of our tax dollars investigating every nook and cranny of the so called Clinton scandals, and all he came up with was Bill lying about a blow job. Way to go Repugs!

[wntoply6]

But It5lee, these US Attys all received glowing performance reports. didn't you hear that part, or like true neo cons you only hear what you want, then deny, deny, deny, and blame it on clinton.

[mrflo2219]

Thank you for pointing that out wntoply6. These US Attys had no derogative performance appraisals at all, and in fact they were all glowing. But suddenly they had to be fired? The woman who prosecuted Duke Cunningham was widely praised for tackling such an extensive case and securing a just conviction, but they saw fit to fire her?! ...these people are incredibly transparent!

[sidonie3]

Ha ha ha. Schumer is so dumb! How many times does this silly man have to get egg on his face before he gives up?

[ianyoutub]

Way to go you fucking idiot. Do you know how bad this is for the US? This is MAJOR POLITICAL CORRUPTION AND ABUSE OF POWER. But you're more interested in calling Schumer dumb. Try getting past the mental level of a three year old YOU CRETIN.

[sidonie3]

Ha ha ha. Liberals are so challenged by logic.

[guerone]

I am not a liberal, And I think this is wrong. They fired good honest hard workers so they could cover for their corrupt cronies. Plus the white house is worried about being charged for crimes them selves once they are out of office. IMPEACH

[maxvolt]

You sound unintelligent and void of FACTS. FACT, US LAW SPECIFIES THAT ALL FEDERAL PROSECUTORS SERVE AT THE SOLE DISCRESSION OF THE PRESIDENT. So if that's the law, then whats the problem? And why didn't you have this problem when Bill Clinton FIRED ALL 93 Federal prosecutors appointed by George Bush senior? Is Shumer a slime or what? Shumer was around for all that, and is well aware that is the law and what his party did, and he had no problem with it then.

[sirjames45]

I protest! It is NOT fair to expose leftists to harsh and narrow-minded FACTS!!

[ivomusic]

And why didn't you have this problem when Bill Clinton FIRED ALL 93 Federal prosecutors appointed by George Bush senior?

maxvolt (3 hours ago)

Yeah, arrogance and ignorrance go usually hand in hand ...

Nobody did have any problem, when Bush fired all Clinton appointees when he took office either - the problem now, you brain giant is that it is UNPRECEDENTAL (i.e. nobody has ever done it before) TO FIRE USA FOR POLITICAL REASONS which Gonzo already admitted.

[guerone]

YOU MUST NOT READ MUCH. EVERY PRESIDENT APPOINTS NEW PROSECUTORS WHEN HE GETS IN OFFICE FOR THE FIRST TIME...

Clinton appointed 93 new lawyers, when he became pres.

Bush appointed 93 new lawyers in 2000, and then in 2006 he decided he wanted to fire the ones that were not going along with his GOP agenda of corruption war profiteering and partisian warfare.

[laleeloolelo]

I failed to see the logic of your insult, isn't Gonzales the one with eggs on his face from this scandal?

[lovuian]

Carole Lam who was fired has found 700 million dollars from front companies in Defense contracts She prosecuted

Duke Cunningham and now another republican congressmen

involved... These are thieves Robbers and Gonzales is a criminal

[sidonie3]

Schumer is so dumb, I almost feel sorry for him.

[lovuian]

Schumer is ticked and knows the truth Gonzales is breaking the law this is looking like Gonzales is setting up for Bush's SS police force

[sidonie3]

Clinton made every single us attorney resign when he took office. Silly.

[lenaw70]

This ROCKS! GET EM' ALL!

[utubersf]

I'm glad the Dems are looking under all the rugs and backs of all the closets and shaking out the moths of desception... Go Dems!

[billbacon]

I don't consider myself a democrat but I'll go as far away from the current administration as I can get. Apparently the democrats are the only other option right now. It's a shame only those with big money backing will ever have a chance at being elected. The Cheney/Halliburton relationship is just sooo wrong.

[yourinstigator]

you know i was starting to wonder about the republicans and thinking wow they all will suport there team just because .looking at your comment you give me hope that people are waking up thanks spread the word(if your not republican sorry for assuming you were)

[maxvolt]

1.What is it that haliburton does? 2.Why were they offered sole source? 3.Who does source selection of who gets the job? 1.They provide a necessary service to the oil industry. 2. They are the ONLY US owned business that CAN perform services supporting the rebuilding of the Iraq oil fields. 2.For security reasons, had to be done by a US interest. 3.OMB procurement office, makes the award based on procurement law. Know FACTS before you disparage your country with uninformed feelings.

[ivomusic]

Know FACTS before you disparage your country with uninformed feelings.

maxvolt (3 hours ago)

...and YOU are the best example for that!

But feelings are always uninformed - somebody should have informed Bush about the Sunni & Shea problem, before he felt that God has told him to invade a sovereign country for political reasons.

[billbacon]

1) Halliburton is not performing their job well. The contract is set up so that they get paid based on a percentage of what is spent. It is in their best interest to spend as much as they can on every expense. I have seen many instances of this and have had this verified by friends in the military.

[billbacon]

2) The vice president as a policy maker should not profit financially from the war. He has stated that he does not have financial ties to them but this is untrue. He gets an deferred compensation ($200,000+) and owns over 400,000 stock options. These stocks have increased by over 3000% in less than a year!

[ilextree]

what else can one say after watching that video where our DEMS lay it ALL OUT...and the media goes "under the bed."

I don't know what to say. I was clicking links all over the place and never saw a discussion about todays incredible events.

And...we wonder why most of America stays asleep...and we wonder why our Kids don't bother...and we wonder how a "TOOL" could be ELECTED PRESIDENT BY SUPREME COURT in 2000!

And we wonder.

[GCHeels]

It's blatently obvious that there is nothing this administation can do that will outrage the US public enough to get rid of this bunch of crooks. Dictators throughout history could only have dreamed of having a public so ignorant and apathetic to their governments abuse.

[ianyoutub]

Exactly right.

[nrf91]

Typical wingnut response - when you can't handle the message, smear the messenger.

[holdingcompany]

exactly. so, fuck you.

[whiteypowers]

Good comeback, Potsie!

[quayelewd]

when will you fucking wingnuts get your lies straight?? can you name one fed atty terminated by the clinton administration during his eight years, who was terminated for purely political reasons?? every prez puts in their own fed when they enter office...only crooks terminate fed attys during their tenure, when those attys dont hoe the party line..and if it was ok, then what the fuck was gonzo apologizing about?? the repugs, party of crooks and liars...gitmo for you all

[ivomusic]

Does GB have to get a blow job to reach some of the outrage Clinton got, or is it enough just to have led the US to War under false pretences, the mismanagement of Katrina, spitting on the constitution and all the rest? Nd all the corruption and dirty tricks involving Rove, Libby, Gonzo, the arab-horse-judge-for-a-FEMA-cr­ony, etc., etc.???

[TPAUSA]

Gonzo has to go ala Rummy!

[ThinkProgressive]

Anyone else love Schumer? Lives like a frat boy and always makes rounds to the good shows. Smart and well spoken, couldn't ask for a better rep.

[mrflo2219]

Unbelievable! Reagan comes into office and fires all US Attys, HWBush does the same thing. Then Clinton does it. Bush comes in and does it, BUT then turns around in the MIDDLE of a term and fires a select number of those he originally appointed, who ALSO just happen to have rubbed him and the neo-con/GOP criminal cabal the wrong way!

[suenox]

Prison for Gonzales & Rove

Impeach Bush

[snmnmnm]

did he just say are kansas???

[wntoply6]

is that all you took away from these senate findings? the way a state was mispronounced. must be another blind bush supporter.

[CrypticTimes]

Bush, Cheney, Rummy, wolfowitz, Rove all rotten to the core!

Still think 9/11 was done by old Osama bin "CIA old faithfull" Laden, why not ask what Osama was doing during Ragan's time in power, its the same faces pulling the same old tricks, problem is people dont give a hell anymore.

[EchelonMonitor]

Is the Senate finally waking up?

The rest of us knew this was a criminal regime when they stole the 2000 election.

[bigjaytexas]

Lock all these damn bush crooks up.

[loper11p34]

Screw this boosh regime

They are ALL a bunch of criminals
