HEADS UP! Asscrack Testimony available on C-Span archive
this was AMAZING video folks.

Leahy, Kennedy, even Grassley hammered the AG and he was utterly smug and insufferable.

Biden was calling for "contempt of congress" proceedings.

this was a big one!

check it out. hell, there's NOTHING but the ongoing Reagasm anyway!

10. I know that the transcripts of Hearings are not ready for 3 months
or so. I'm still waiting for Haiti hearings. Maybe there's another option.

2. I heard it on C-Span radio. It was HUGE!!!
Leahy's opening statement was a masterpiece. It alone is worth getting the transcript. I discovered a new term "legal cover" and it is appropriately used to describe those memos on torture. "Legal cover" = "piss on the Constitution."

3. Truely Huge! It Was Like "Extreme Congressional Hearings"
or something.

The Democratic Senators kept their composure and decorum... but they KICKED ASS!

5. Uggh. I'm watching. Orrin Hatch had to lick RR's butt first.
Orrin Hatch: "A few words about Ronald Reagan first.
Ronald Reagan presided over 8 years of peace and prosperity in the United States."



What the FUCK is he talking about--RR's budget ran up the national debt to unknown heights (up to that point anyway).

Facts are inconvenient things to the Repukes.

7. Okay Leahy is taking Asscrack to WOODSHED.
This is amazing. A good old-fashioned chewing out!

A good antidote to the "Reagasm" for damn sure.
