Randi Just said Bush & Cheney are GOING DOWN IF......
Edited on Wed Jan-31-07 05:22 PM by Gloria
what the Constitution experts said at Leahy's and Feingold's hearing about the constitutional role of Congress in funding the war....Spector and Leahy joined to create some interesting movement, see below:

Namely,

Bush and VP have both said that Congress won't stop them....all the experts told Congress that absolutely Congress had the right to defund....and the President is only in charge of where they send the troops...that the founders were careful to separate who funded and who managed the troops from each other....,

She's now discussing Leahy and Spector's move to force Gonzalez to declare Bushco's belief in the unitary executive.....that plays into the whole thing BIG TIME.....This is the hearing where Spector declared that Bush "wasn't the only decider."

I'm sorry I don't have it all in her order, but I came in on it a bit late....she's going into again, now I think....And I'm sorry if I spelled Arlen's name wrong!

She said they joined together to write to Gonzalex and to force Alberto to say "Congress has no power" and ONCE THEY DO, BYE BYE!!! Because at that point, Bushco will be declaring themselves DICTATORS and that's the line.....then BUSH & CHENEY ARE GOING DOWN and the Supreme Court won't be able to stop it.....

Randi says it's a beautiful move.....

8. I DO NOT trust Arlen Spector!
He's all talk and no action.

So he's hooked his wagon to Feingold for future padding of his own *legacy*. I'll only believe he has done ANYTHING other than *jump into a photo-op* when I see HIM actually DO something other than flap his gums. :rant:

9. Leahy and Feingold, awwww riiight!
but they need to get the lead out. Why put off till tomorrow what you can do today?
Specter is nothing more than an opportunist weasel. He always fakes left, then goes right. As sure as the sun will rise tomorrow.

10. Boy, I sure hope she's right. THat WOULD be a beautiful move.
However, do you think Gonzalez & Rove & crew couldn't figure it out and find some way to side step it?

11. It's almost unbelievable, but this is truly the first real challenge to their illegal assertions
which they've faced.

Until very recently, had the Frist/Delay controlled GOP house and an extremely complicit corporomedia.

Now, they have on the record legislative committees gunning for them and the corporomedia is just a bit skittish due to the ongoing Libby trial...how many CP journalists are imagining themselves on the stands for any reporting they may do today? :evilgrin:

They still hold a lot of power and are connivers of the first order, but their foundation of deceit is crumbling beneath them.

Anything they come up with will be called BS publicly by our representatives and, the CP may feel forced to give it airtime, if for no other reason than to avoid future subpoenas, LOL.

12. As Molly Ivins said:
"I still believe in Hope - mostly because there's no such place as Fingers Crossed, Arkansas."

Beyond that, I see none of this going anywhere. It never does.

16. This is the same trap Webb has laid for Condi too...
there have been a couple of threads about this, he wrote her a letter this week asking her for a yes or no answer.
