Rep. Jim Moran - can you spot the typo in his name?

Haha - you're an idiot

Where was Bagdhad Bob? Certainly he would have given a much-needed sense of credibility to the hearing.

On your article:
"Why they didn't invite former Department of Labor chief economist, Department of Labor chief economist, Morgan Reynolds P.H.D"

The hearing is an "open invitation". Everyone (senate,congress, white house) is welcome to attend. See http://www.downingstreetmemo.com/news.html

Democratic hearing on
Downing Street Memo/Minutes
and Pre-war intelligence

On Thursday June 16, 2005, Rep. John Conyers, Jr., Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, and other Congress Members held a hearing on the Downing Street Minutes and related evidence of efforts to cook the books on pre-war intelligence.

After the hearing, Congressman Conyers delivered his letter to the President with the signatures of over 540,000 Americans and 122 members of Congress. Not content to stop there, Conyers has pledged to keep his campaign going, and to personally see to it that every additional signature is delivered to the White House.

The hearing will be re-broadcast on C-SPAN 2 Friday night (6/17) at 8:00pm EST.
Don't miss it!

No, Brian, that's not it.

But thank you for playing!

It's clear: Bush is a marr murdering liar. All
republicans lie. IMPEACH ALL REPUBLICANS.

I'm sure Michael Moore was running the camera.

I'm sure Michael Moore was running the camera at the, er, conference.

I agree with Brian. You're an absolute idiot. You can continue to drink from the right wing Kool-Aid fountain of self imposed ignorance but in the end you'll still not have a clear understanding of the truth.

The beginning of the end of the Republican control of Washington. ;)

This morning I saw a garbage truck. Just an ordinary truck, picking up peoples' garbage. A truck driven by union garbage guys - one of the strongest unions around here (NW Indiana, close to Chicago). It had two little American flags taped to the mirrors and "support the troops" stickers. I pulled over and asked what they thought of the war in Iraq. They said it didn't sound too good but that we had to beat the bastards.
The Democratic party leaders seem totally unaware of people like these. They care nothing for them, scorn them; their tried and true constituents. Can 10% of a party really run the whole show?
For how long?

A Republican is a person who will support any war he doesn't have to invest his children in or can profit from. Clinton lied about a person matter and it doesn't matter. Bush lies about War and thousand die. Try to remember that if you can get your head out of Bush's Nazi ass.

Hmmm.

It's moonbat mating season.

Ahhh spring. When moonbats migrate to their home in Washington D.C. and other urban environs. Watch as they make their nests in awkward unconfortable places, and then spend endless hours justifying such placements. Listen to their mating calls as moonbats seek out one another in a loving embrace of shared values.

Listen? Can you hear the loons?

"Republicans are Evil!"
"Bush HitlerMcChimpy!"

Ahh. The sounds of moonbat love.

Here's what I want to know. What would the reaction of the Rightie Blogosphere and the press in general have been if Clinton had locked the White House gates against a senior Republican Member of Congress bearing a letter co-signed by 101 of his fellow Members and 560,000 American citizens? Even if the Downing Street Memo and all the documents that support it are suppressed now, can you imagine that they won't be an important part of the historical record of the Bush/Cheney era?
Please keep commenting on the Moonbattery of the DSM; it may cause a few more people to actually read its short straightforward text.

Will this be "the beginning of the end" like Joe Wilson's memo was? Or maybe that was the CBS "draft" memo that was the end. No wait, Nov. 2 was the end, right? I've gotten so confused I can't tell which "end" is up. Or maybe this DSM is the end-all, be-all end? Ugh.

All I know is that this issue is going to end up in a dead end, like it should. And all this liberal posturing and all these liberal pronouncements is just so much hot air coming from, well, their back ends.

Can 10% of a party really run the whole show?
Well, they seem to be doing ok with it in the Republican Party.

For how long?
Hopefully, not too much longer.

If we fail to control the spin on this then we will surely be beaten back by the truth, and the entire house of cards will come tumbling down.

I warned you all when this first leaked that the "it's old news" and "fixed just means repaired" twists were pathetically weak, but no one has come up with anything better.

It's not too late -- we desperately need someone to investigate the fonts and the kerning in this memo.

Hopefully it will. To put it in terms you can understand, think of it like all those corners we keep turning in Iraq.

Hmmm.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm feeling a little evil right now.

I'm off to torture a delicious hamburger. I'm going to interrogate it severely with crisp lettuce, lightly salted tomato slices and slices of sharp white onion. Then I'll make it beg for mercy as I lay on the ketchup and fresh mayo.

Oh the horror. The horror.

Pray for me. My descent into madness of Republican ChimpyMcEvil begins.

In case anybody cares, Rick Moron, excuse me, Moran is the host of an appropriately named site called Right Wing Nuthouse. A place where Rick posts such idiocy as the above daily, then spends his entire day deleting the posts of anyone who dares disagree with him. Apparently the poor fellow has no job or life, preferring instead to spend his time as a full time apologist for CIA torturers and the incomparably incompetent president George "Deficit" Bush.

It will all come out in the wash.

Can't wait! It's fantastic to see the vice squeezing the ugly American bastards.

John H.

Please less cryptic you speak of corners, no?. No English understand. Sense make no. Vague much too. Again try.

(Speaking like Yoda helps me relate to the space cadet liberals! ;-)

On and on it goes. 'Moonbats' asking for a hearing to find the truth. Right wing nutjobs calling them names and thinking that they and only they are right. Bush has made a mistake, one that has cost thousands of lives, and noone on the far right will admit it. His followers wish he was Reagan, and follow blindly wherecer he (Karl Rove) tells them to go (as long as it does not involve putting their ass on the line). Everyone who loves Bush so much that will not admit the horrible error in judgemnt in the rush to war (and now it looks like a premeditated rush) and refuses to even bother to question the motives and reasoning for this mess should put it on the line and volunteer. I smell a draft coming, Kevin (Moonbat in charge) should go first.

Hmmm.

I guess since GannonGate kinda just fizzled out the Left has been searching for something to finally make the cornerstone of their efforts. Something monumental that they can point to and show how powerful they are, or how relevant.

But no matter how much you flog this horse, it won't run any faster.

You Israel-firster types crack me up.

Hmmmm.

"rush to war"

ROFLMAO! Ok let's look at this. The Left is accusing Bush of having planned the invasion since, at least, 9/11 and possibly before. The invasion happened in March of 2003. So if we take the memo at face value then it took 8 months to "rush to war". If we go with the moonbat theory then it took 18 months to "rush to war".

That sure is some rushing.

I remember when a two bit burglary at Watergate was no big deal. As America wakes up to the real Bush his ratings in the polls continue to drop and so does his faked war. Ask yourself how many Republicans do you know with offspring in the War. You will find that it is only the men on the garbage truck who have been fool by Bush and have children in the War. I know many Republican who don’t have any one in this fake war. I also know many Democrats who don’t support the War but their kids are in Iraq. I’ve been there. If you support the war. Good. Go out right now and send you kid to Iraq or go yourself. Lets see your real support other than a bumper sticker on you car as it is powered by the blood of American GIs. Put up or shut up. Let’s see Bush sent his kids just like he wants to send you kids to fight in their place. The man has no concept of what war really is. Do you.

Hmmmm.

"I remember when a two bit burglary at Watergate was no big deal."

I remember when a deliberate deception perpetrated by a sitting President to mire an innocent country in a ever spiraling war.

Oh wait. That was Lyndon Baines Johnson, Democrat.

LOL.

Hmmm.

If I had a quarter for every "vietnam vet" or "green beret" or "seal" I've met online, I'd have a boatload of quarters.

So, Ed are you going to send you kid or go your self. Or are you just spouting Right Wing Bullshit as always. Come on Ed. Your a tough guys. When are you going to Iraq, you coward. You can remember how many GIs died for gas for your car.

All I know is that this issue is going to end up in a dead end, like it should. And all this [insert party affil here] posturing and all these [insert party affil here] pronouncements is just so much hot air coming from, well, their back ends.
-----------------------------------

we said the same thing about Billy and Monica :)

Ed sounds like the typical armchair warrior. I'm no seal or green beret, just a ground pounding grunt that was in Kuwait and Iraq in 1991. If you'll recall, we didnt get Saadam then because there was no clear way out after that. So Ed, go on now, get some of that sand in between your toes. If you think the war is right, go fight it.

Hmmm.

Oh no! A moonbat called me a coward! OMG!

I'm shocked, SHOCKED, at such language.

Please. Keep the drivel coming.

Hmmm.

Oh no! I've been insulted and demeaned by a moonbat!

My life is over.

"Oh wait. That was Lyndon Baines Johnson, Democrat."
And the same people who are now so disgusted with the current President (at least those of us who were alive and politically aware in 1966-1668), were just as disgusted with LBJ's war policies. He had some domestic policies that were OK, but the war trumped them all. The current Presidency, on the other hand, has no mitigating factors.

Hmmm.

If I had a dime for every "veteran of Gulf I" I met online, I'd have a Death Star full of dimes.

Bill M.:

I think there was a cigar involved, too. That still gives me the heebee jeebies.

But I disgress...

Back to the delusional, conspiratorial and space cadet talk on the memo...
