Again, instead of moving foward into a new and very challeged century w/esteemable hope we are being dragged down into a dark, draconian whole - and Schumer/Feinstein want to be tour guides.

This is sick and its also the point in the screenplay where you see people for exactly what they are - stage actors who’d steal a hot stove.

Despite the attacks on me and that clearly false accusations made against me, it may astonish you to learn that I am OPPOSED to this nomination.

I am disgusted with the spineless Democrats, have NO idea where Schumer is coming from (no, he’s not a traitor—he’s a loyal American) and no idea why they are caving in, yet again.

I KNOW they want to win in 2008 and think they can do it by not pissing people off, but they are pissing their base off with their spinelessness.

We elected them to COMBAT the fascism of George W. Bush, not collaborate with it.

Obviously we’re not being represented by Schumer and Feinstein.  But there is SOMETHING YOU CAN DO.

Kucinich needs your help at this critical moment:

Sign the petition:

We really must act now. 

I included this message when I signed the petition:

As an American citizen, I am deeply troubled by the abuse of power exhibited by the office of Vice President Richard B. Cheney. I fully support commencing the impeachment process in order to uphold, protect and defend the U.S. Constitution.

On his Sunday CNN show, former American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) lobbyist Wolf Blitzer had two Zionist backers (Senators Specter and Feinstein) of Zionist Michael Mukasey.  That’s what I call balance.

Your ridiculous diatribes against me prove to me what a little bitch you must be.

Now you are just flat-out lying, pure and simple. I have NEVER demanded or even requested unconditional support of Israel.  In fact, just the opposite—conditional support tempered with valid criticism.

So saying that is a pure lie—something you are prone to, but not very good at, as your lying is easily caught.

Nor do I claim at ANY time to be “SuperJew”—just not typical.

Another bullshit KKK lie from an ignorant redneck.

“I am not a typical or ordinary Jew”.

OK, superjew, I got your number, your a jewish racist and all of us who are critical of Israel and don’t ascribe to the unconditional support afforded that country are the problem.

If your insults and rants are indicative of what jewish americans are all about then you and they have my sympathy.

You’ve never known a Jew or an Arab yet you have the temerity and unmitigated GALL to make blanket anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli generalizations?

So on top of everytning else, (your bigotry and racism) you are also flat-out IGNORANT!

I am not a typical or ordinary Jew.  I am Agnostic, never believing any religion’s demands for “faith” (accepting as true without knowledge).

Yet you, in your continual imbecilic ignorance would task ME with representing some 15 million people around the world, of all ages, races, and levels of belief, from fellow non-believers, to ultra-orthodox fanatics who aren’t much different than the Moslem fanatics. 

You CONTINUE in your bigotry to stereotype ALL Jews by your blog-interaction with one man.

I should feel sorry for you because you’re a victim, of your own bigotry and ignorance. But to quote the shrink on M*A*S*H: “You’re such an example of walking fertilizer it’s hard for me to care.”

I just E-Mailed them at: http://www.congress.org/congressorg/home/

So, what does the Constitution say about a tyrannical Government?  Anybody remember?

I’m so disgusted with Feinstein and Schumer.

And, I’m a registered Republican.  I can’t stand the Republicans.  How can these two go along?  I guess we’ve been delivered some of the answers.  What a bunch of criminals.

What an outrage!!!!!!

Where is the Wold Court?  Can’t the members of the World Court call our members of government what they are, criminals?

After E-mailing Senator Feinstein with my displeasure at her stand on Bush’s nomination.

I began to think that not voting for her in the future is not really the way to go.

Does anyone know if a Senator can be recalled?

Maybe, our e-mails to her should say… Do Remember Gray Davis?

Bloggers, please email Senators Feinstein and Shumer and let them know that you disagree with their approval of Mukasey. 
Personally, I have respectfully done so and informed them that they work for us, the constituency.  Any person so ill informed that they cannot posit their views on torture and waterboarding in an honest straightforward does not deserve the privilege of holding governmental position.  Mukasey is not to be believed if he does not know what waterboarding is.  I am ashamed of Feinstein and Shumer and outraged.  I told them so.  I hope you will as well.

It’s obvious you take pride in your insults.

I really don’t know or have known any jews or arabs in my life as they are exclusive not inclusive in their business dealings and associations and I don’t live in New York.

That’s the funny thing: Why ARE you trying to hide your detestation of Jews? What are you afraid of?  You post it all the time, with snide nasty sophmoric remarks (see above for a case in point).  Yet whenever you are forced to confront it, you throw the bullshit into the fan to try to hide it.

Correction: Accurate description of your posts and the posts of your cronies.  It’s what you say. It’s what you do. It’s what you are.

Like Weather you justify your bigotry with “They brought it on themselves.”  Your kind have said that about Jews when they were powerless, when they had some power, and now that they have their own state, you say it even more.

To your warped logic there is ultimately only one way to deal with the “Jewish Problem”—Hitler’s way.  And you’ll come to that conclusion sooner or later, or be forced to confront what you’ve become, monstrous, and swerve back to being human.

Like Weather, you have the wife-beater’s rationale.

Just found this on another blog:

Feinstien’s Husband (Richard Blum) is involved in a company that gets no bid military contracts from the bush administration for reconstruction in Iraq. As chairperson and ranking member of the Military Construction Appropriations subcommittee (MILCON) from 2001 through the end of 2005, Feinstein supervised the appropriation of billions of dollars a year for specific military construction projects. She made sure to look out for her own interests IE lots of money for her husbands company. She is the personification of the term War profiteer so it’s no suprise that she would screw the people of this country and align herself with likes of these criminals and theives… she is one too. Tough talking democrat that votes like a republican Ass-Kisser. Schumer should know better but it appears he is voting for this guy because he is a fellow New Yorker. I smell a rat! I think there is more to schumers vote than meets the Eye. These people are so thouroghly corrupt and morally bankrupt it’s hard to even support a democrat anymore as they more and more seem to dance to the corporate masters and align themselves with the Bush/Cheney Disaster. We need a third party .. Aprty of the people!!

Basic script of the troll patrol.

As a libertarian, I am constantly amazed at how both Republicans and Democrats will stand by their official party lines, even when they are obviously tyrannical.

Is waterboarding torture? How can you even ask the question?

Any deliberate inflicting of pain on a helpless prisoner is torture. This includes waterboarding, head slaps, manacling in stress positions, sexual debasement—any of the weird stuff this administration has endorsed.

Any cruel and unusual punishment is explicitly forbidden by the Constitution. Thus, the Bush Administration has committed obvious high crimes and misdemeanors. They should be impeached, convicted, and then turned over to appropriate courts for regular criminal prosecution.

Dems and Reps are both part of the same corrupt system.

This is what happens when our elected representatives vote religion over party or country.

No argument here.

Thank you Paul Fretheim, that is exactly what it is, bribery and extortion in broad daylight - pretty much across the board.

Again this theft is carried out w/the complete cooperation and packaging of the highly manipulated media monster.
NPR/PBS took the brown bag too, that’s how Ugly and systemic this is.

The Democrats seem not to have an actual party.  If the chairman and all the Presidential candidates are opposing Mukasey, where is the party discipline?  Republicans would threaten to pull endorsements, campaign contributions, and threaten powerful primary challenges if any Republican Senators challenged their party leadership in the same manner.

Cowardice is not the problem with the Democrats who vote pro Zionist all the time.  The issue is corruption.  They are brazen in the way in which they dare to defy the wishes of the American people in their support of both Zionism and the military prison industrial complex. 

Pelosi, Emmanuel, and many others are corrupt, not cowardly.  They bravely defy the demands of the voters to protect their seats on the gravey train!

At last you’ve actually said something clever, Inherit The Wind. Congratulations…..

Denial and refusal are now endemic and have become a carefully contrived way of life - the “American way of life”, uhh. But, when things star getting sour, we’ll see what is in store as a new kind of visciousness.

In the past decade or so, society has actually been slowly moving backwards. Technical progress continues but people are neither progressing philosophically or culturally never mind spiritually (SQ). There are those who can see - and then there are the rest…...

Yes, the Jello-crats have caved again, and Trog-licans win again, for no good reason.  Another terrible day for Americans in 7 terrible years.  Our country still teeters on the brink of fascism and the ONLY thing standing in its way is the American People making the House and Senate Democratic again…but unknowingly filling it with spineless wimps who will NOT do what their voters told them to do. STAND FIRM AGAINST THE BUSH FASCISTS!

It’s really simple.  Do not give an inch. Do not let ANYTHING get done that’s not on your terms.  Haven’t you learned ANYTHING from the 12 YEARS the Re-thugs ran the House?

And all the KKK nazis here do what they ALWAYS do: Blame The Jews.

That’s how Hitler came to power…Lots of people not facing facts or reality and blaming Jews rather than themselves.

Once again, double-crossed by fake liberal democrats like Feinstein. Schumer has never been any kind of liberal so we should not be surprised by his acceptance of Mukasey. If the Senate accepts this man, we are in for more of the same horror endorsed and promulgated by Alberto.

Not much of a surprise. Republicans choose party over country and Democrats simply haven’t the integrity to do anything except blabber. Time to insist on term limits and time to scare the re-election bejeebers out of these complacent traitors. Anyone, Democrat or Republican that votes to confirm a man for Attorney General that will not state that water-boarding is torture and against the laws of this country is a traitor. They might have lost the fight, but at least they would have shown that they had the courage and integrity to get in the fight. Sadly they had neither. And sadly we are not “represented” by either party.

Go to the Huffington Post and see it first hand…one of their reporters had himself water-boarded.  Watching it wasn’t actually easy and then I coupled the scene with MY government using it on the captured “enemy” (not always an enemy as it comes to pass)and it sent a cold shot of reality on just how far we have fallen.

I would recommend that everyone write Feinstein and tell her your opinion on her decision.

I will not vote for her again. It’s time to change Senators from Califonia, she doesn’t support the people of this state.

Well folks here it is, it’ll be more than they got now. (Note, I have rheumatoid arthritis.)

Crafty of the Bushies to pick a Zionist.  They knew it was a lock.

Please give me Tony Soprano, at least you know where you stand.

These souls who populate Congress they’re frauds who’s oath didn’t include us. And now we know what has long been suspected. America is dying from w/in.

Cyrena you are to kind to call it the rabbit hole, the word I chose is a much better word to describe it,I am certain you can figure it out.And we all know that if all else fails of course they will let this person in thru the backdoor/underhanded way which is the way things are done in the Bush administration.Sneaky,underhanded,unlawful and based on lies.Same story only the names and dates change.

As I have said before if this person cannot decide if waterboarding is torture,demand that he as well as our fearful leader have this demonstrated upon themselves, no substitution, so then they can decide if this is torture after experiencing it firsthand for themselves.That way they should be able to made a coherent decision. It’s a no-brainer.

The Democrats can’t get it together, due to having fifth columnists in their ranks.  If the majority party can’t stop an attorney general nominee who doesn’t know if waterboarding is torture, they’ve got a sick party (and the Republicans know it).

Mrs. Chuck Schumer is a Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey phony. Clearly in a class all by his fraudlent self.
Democratic/Republican its a myth of affinities based on yesterday’s dogma. Look at Joey LIEberman, now there’s a star spangled fraud.

Its amazing what a little anthrax, a private plane air crash and a petri dish of mis and disinformation can accomplish.

“And, I also heard they’re good buddies, and attend the same synogogue.”

Bingo!

#111274 by scurvybro

The only answer I can give for you on this scurvybro, (which isn’t a good one) is that SCHUMER is the one that recommended him, assuming that the Thugs would be more accepting of him than any other democratic referral. (so, political BS)And, I also heard they’re good buddies, and attend the same synogogue.

At least that’s what the talk was at the time. Now of course we know there is far more to it, and that Mukasey was probably the Thugs choice all along. He’s wedded to all of the post-9/11 money schemes, and he and his son are both involved with Guiliani’s firm, as well as his campaign. He’s also the “terror trial’ Judge.

So, it’s difficult for me to believe that Schumer didn’t know any of this at the time of his ‘recommendation’ of Mukasey, so it would appear that he too, has taken the bribe, or otherwise fallen down the rabbit hole. Too bad. I always liked him before this.

Anyway, this thing about a difficult decision is BS as well, since of course he’s gonna vote for him. Bernie Sanders has issued a statement that he will say NO to Mukasey, and from the looks of things, so will Leahy. But, as has been mentioned before, even if the dems actually DO something this time, the Thugs will just wait for the next official Congressional recess, and appoint him anyway, without a confirmation.

It’s their favorite trick.

Improve America’s esteem - send Schumer to Israel and Feinstein to Iraq, they’re a part of the problem.

I don’t give a rat’s a** that Sen. Schumer considers his appoval of Mukasey an “extremely difficult” decision. What I want to hear is an explanation of why he’s going to vote to approve Mukasey, despite Mukasey’s refusal to acknowledge waterboarding as torture.

It’s a simple question, Chuck. How about a straight answer?
