    Holy Smokes. It has been a busy day. I haven't seen anything about SOS and Verizon, I will have to look, Thanks Chris.

    I was SO,SO, HAPPY a couple weeks ago when Obama won. But things are so bad. I am feeling it, but not as bad as some people. I just don't see how he can turn our country around.

    Thoughts and prayers go out to Mukasey and his family.

    Over on dKos, Adam B posted that he had been getting text messages from folks in the audience about it: "No signs of movement. About 2000 people in the room -- Justice Alito, former AG Ashcroft among those seen visibly shaken. He was just removed from the room."

    I know it's awful to wish ANYONE ill but my first thought was "Why couldn't it have been Cheney?"

    In Cheney's case, it would have been awful if you hadn't!

    You don't think that this is going to imped the march of American justice, do you?
  • DorothyGale · 1 year ago
    That's certainly bad news, even if it was one of the bad guys ( yeah, thanks a lot Chuck Schumer! ). I doubt Bush would allow Eric Holder to get an early start to his job ( provided that the news is as bad as it seems ).

    Totally unrelated note, is there any way we can make Sheldon Whitehouse the Senate Majority Leader in place of the feckless Morman that occupies the office now?

    It certainly has been a strange week in so many ways. Glad it's almost over.

    I hope he's okay, especially for his family's sake. I hate to think ill-will of anyone.

    My good thoughts go out to Attn. General Mukasey and his family. I wish him well.

    OMG! Now BushCo criminality will not be pursued! Oh wait, it wasn't being pursued anyway.

    Slurring his speech... does that sound like a stroke?
  • vkobaya · 1 year ago
    AP article sounds serious like he is on his death bed. Well, Cheney was warned a while ago that Satan is calling home his own, guess it will be Mukasey's turn to go. Be very interesting if the entire Bush administration drops dead one by one. Be a good warning to Obama, "Straighten up and fly right." <g>

    No one captured a picture of the lightening bolt and no one recorded the voice of God, isn't that just like the media, can't get anything right.

    Not a matter of the media not getting anything right. Rather, it is called another media coverup.
