Cowardly Democrats: With Bush DISAPPROVAL way over 60%, with evidence of CORRUPTION and INCOMPETENCE everywhere, Dems sound like their tepid selves...
#1.
Rove Testifies in Leak case...
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12388079/
Why aren't Democrats SHOUTING and DEMANDING AIR TIME, and running the video of President Bush PLEDGING to FIRE *ANYONE* associated with the ILLEGAL OUTING of an undercover CIA agent (Valerie Plame) AND HER ENTIRE COVER ORGANIZATION, Brewster-Jennings Co.? The fact that the Bush White House "OUTED" Ms. Plame as a means of retribution and revenge - a smear - on her husband, for Ambassador Wilson having the temerity to point out to America and the world that not only was President Bush wrong to include charges that Iraq was purchasing 'yellowcake' uranium from Niger for a WMD program that didn't even exist, but, crucially, Mr. Bush KNEW that the story of Niger uranium for Iraq was FALSE, WHEN Mr. Bush used the story of Niger uranium as "proof" of Iraq's WMD intentions, and therefore cause for America's invasion of Iraq in his 2003 State of the Union (SOTU) speech.
At this point, the facts that Mr. Bush knowingly used false information ('intel') as an excuse to launch an extra-legal invasion of Iraq, or that "the outing" of Ms. Plame and her organization was as a means of retribution on her husband, is almost not relevant to the scandal. The scandal is that the CIA, outraged at the "outing" and destruction of such an expensive and vital undercover spy front, demanded that federal prosecutors look into 'the outing' and consider CRIMINAL CHARGES. It was the Bush White House STONEWALLING of that federal CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION, including Mr. Bush's misleading, FRAUDULENT pledge to "fire anyone who illegally leaked undercover CIA operatives", that allowed the White Houe to suppress the scanda as an issue in Mr. Bush's reelection campaign of 2004, and to mislead, divert, and put off an expensive federal CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION with lies and perjury.
Once again, Democrats are "OK" with President Bush and his staff using the US government as their private fiefdom, even in cases of MANUFACTURING misleading and lying "intel" as a causus belli for war with Iraq, even in cases of illegally "OUTING" undercover CIA operatives, and even in cases of PERJURY and LYING to a federal criminal investigation to stall a potential scandal and mislead the American public in a crucial wartime election.
And today, in the normal Bush administraion "flip" of what is criminal or perjurous, cowardly Democrats pretend ignorance, even as President Bush's DCI pick, Porter Goss, PURGES the CIA of qualified and competent staff and officials who resist the Bush administration MISUSE and ABUSE of the nation's intel agencies.
THAT IS, THE COWARDLY DEMOCRATS in the US Senate PRETEND IGNORANCE OF PERJURY, LYING TO federal investigators, the misuse of "intel" to start a war and extra-legal invasion of a nation already weakened by disarmament, international weapons inspectors, and internatonal sanctions; the stonewalling of a federal investigation to win an election; and just to add insult to injury and add another stripe to their pathetic subservience to the Bush White House, the Democrats now sit on on their hands and scamper to their Georgetown Cocktail circuit ratholes as Mr. Bush and Mr. Goss PURGE the CIA of competent and qualified CIA officials.
BY COMPARISON, the Cowardly Democrats stood aside as the Republicans MANUFACTURED A SCANDAL, and tried to make a crime, of President Clinton having guests spend the night at the White House - the so-called "LINCOLN BEDROOM SCANDAL."
Under "the leadership" of our senior Democratic "leaders," WE NOW LIVE IN A SEGREGATED, APARTHEID NATION: with one standard of "justice" for Republican right-wing leaders, who can use the government and captive media to CRIMINALIZE Democrats, government officials, and protesters (and ignore combat exposed war veterans), and an entirely different standard of "justice" for Republican officials "OUTING" undercover CIA assets, and then prosecuting government "whistleblowers" for exposing ILLEGAL CONDUCT and intel lies from within the government.

#3. Republican Senator calls for REPLACING FEMA, the nation's decades-old Emergency preparedness agency.
The problem is NOT with FEMA.. the problem is with the INCOMPETENT, CRONY, CORRUPT LEADERSHIP that President Bush has assigned to the agency, including his former campaign manager Joe Albaugh, another Bush campaign crony Mike Chertoff to head Homeland Security, and yet another unqualified crony of Chertoff's, Michael Brown, to head FEMA in the months before Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast.
INCAPABLE of declaring "INCOMPETENCE!" or "CORRUPTION!", the Democrats wring their hands, thereby inflicting American taxpayers with MILLIONS and BILLIONS of dollars of federal spending INCOMPETENCE. Not only are millions of dollars worth of PREPAID MOBILE HOMES sitting UNUSED in an Arkansas storage field, but the reason the trailers are sitting unused - that FEMA has not qualified them for use in a potential flood plain - is merely symptiomatic of the much larger problem: ABJECT FAILURE of the Bush administration to come up with an OVERALL ENVIRONMENTAL PLAN for restoration of New Orleans/the Mississippi flood plain. In short, Mr. Bush, his administration, and the Republican Party see KATRINA as NO MORE THAN AN EXCUSE to spend BILLIONS of dollars of reconstruction funds AS PORKBARREL SPENDING - with NO overall plan, NO overall strategy, and NO RESPONSIBILITY for either INCOMPETENCE in the immediate disaster recovery, or fraud and waste in the long-term reconstruction planning.

Here's a double-citation of how CORRUPT and FRAUDULENT the right-wing Republican claim to "MORAL VALUES" is.
While, for all his other sins, convicted (bribery, fraud) Representative Randy "Duke" Cunningham may not have had any links to the Klan (KKK) and/or other White Supremacy groups, there can be no doubt that Mr. Cunningham was one of the most outspoken "liberal bashers" in the Congress. A Vietnam war hero (the only Navy fighter pilot to shoot down 5 NVA jet fighters, thereby making him an "Ace fighter pilot"), Mr. Cunningham was rarely restrained in his blasting of Democrats, progressives, and "liberals" as the font of America' alleged slide into immorality and moral disgrace.
Yet it turns out, that in addition to BRIBERY - corruption on such a scale that it almost certainly impacted the supply and readiness of combat troops in the Iraq war - Mr. Cunningham may also have been involved with prostitutes as the price of his bribery.
Being a war hero and combat veteran is not a crime. Being an outspoken proponent of "Moral Values" and "Conservative Virtues" is not a crime. SELLING ONE's office to unqualified defense conractors and accepting bribes IS a crime, and using one's position and status to demean others for "moral failings" while consorting with prostitutes and accepting bribes IS THE HEIGHT OF HYPOCRISY.
And finally in today's "wimpy, voiceless Democrats" roundup, we have our last article, "KKK Plans Protest March at Antietam, the battle victory that allowed Civil War President Abraham Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing slaves in Confederate territory (only), and setting America on the path to make good the Declaration of Independence pledge, "All men are created equal."
Again, while there may be no DIRECT link between the KKK, other White Supremacist groups, the Republican Party, and Republican leaders such as President Bush or former Rep. Cunningham, by now it is obvious to EVERYONE but our Democratic "leaders" that the Republican claim to "MORAL LEADERSHIP" is as hollow and shrivelled as the treasury and pension funds of President Bush's #1. campaign contributor in his 2000 presidential campaign, the ENRON co.
- CORRUPTION
- INCOMPETENCE
- Crimes and bribery
- BILLIONS of dollars of taxpayer reconstruction and disaster prevention funding- with pathetic results...
- a hollow and hypocritical call to "Moral Leadership"...
- Systematic MISUSE and ABUSE of the nation's "Intel" services to launch a WAR OF CHOICE
- a torture empire using prisons from the former Soviet KGB gulag!
- treating the GENEVA CONVENTONS the way the Nazis treated political opponents and "race enemies", as expendable
....regarding all the above outrages and more, the Democratic Party is not LEADING Americans in outrage and dismay, but merely FOLLOWING as 50%, 60%, and now even 70% of voters DISAPPROVE of the lies, fraud, and incompetence of President Bush and his administration.
Prosecutors May Widen
Congressional-Bribe Case
Cunningham Is Suspected
Of Asking for Prostitutes;
Were Others Involved?
By SCOT J. PALTROW

Federal prosecutors are investigating whether two contractors implicated in the bribery of former Rep. Randall "Duke" Cunningham supplied him with PROSTITUTES and free use of a limousine and hotel suites, pursuing evidence that could broaden their long-running inquiry.
Besides scrutinizing the prostitution scheme for evidence that might implicate contractor Brent Wilkes, investigators are focusing on whether any other members of Congress, or their staffs, may also have used the same free services, though it isn't clear whether investigators have turned up anything to implicate others.
