I'm feeling that when the first domino falls, they're all going to follow
My head is telling me that bushco always gets away with it in the end, so far they have, but taking just the LBN threads from the past few weeks, and watching the press come to life (for how long?), I'm starting to feel like the jig might really be up.

I swear there was a look of fear, maybe terror, in scotty's eyes today - something has snapped.

I suddenly get the feeling the first one to fall will start a chain reaction. Like removing the fatal jenga bar. Like that ubiquitous house of cards.

I think once it starts, if it really does start, it will mean the collapse of the regime.

1. I think so too
After following these people they won't let one get away. Especially not Bush. I've always had that feeling too and once one thing comes out and makes them crumble everything else will follow as well.

2. I'm almost afraid to agree
everything always falls off them like water off a ducks back but this time the corporate whores are digging in and if they thought that the White House would get off I think they would be deathly afraid to cross them.

3. The 'Teflon Don' doesn't seem to be non-stick anymore
He has weaknesses. They've been building for years, but we haven't heard about it. Well, not on the MSM, anyways.

This may be the start of the 'piling on' media effect. The 1st Fitz indictment should be the trick.

5. I'm inclined to agree. This group is 95% spin and propaganda.
Take that away, and they're fucked.

7. the Bush mafia...
wont go down without a fight. Theyll find a sleazy way to get out.


But the CIA will win in the end even if they have to take over the govt with a coup.

8. Play Van Morrison's "Domino" - it is a joyful tune and you'll be
dancing for all kinds of reasons.

9. This may not take Bush down literally, but he's finished ...
I expect him to dangle in the wind, but go unpunished, other than politically.
