Bush's "Mojo" Sweeps M$M Coverage, What Scandals are Buried?
Edited on Fri Jun-16-06 09:42 AM by KoKo01
I've been thinking maybe we maybe need to keep weekly summation of Bush/Repug scandals so we don't lose track of what they are trying to bury under the Little Emperor's PsyOps Campaign.

Here's a few that have gotten buried. It's hard to keep up with them all.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
House Majority Leader Tom Delay resigns from Congress, June 9th, under pending investigations.

Defense Contract Gate (Duke Cunningham Scandal is still going and Congressman Jerry Lewis is implicated along with aides in some really bad stuff with defense contracts for their shell businesses. Letitia White and a defense-related PAC run by Rep. Jerry Lewis' (R-CA) stepdaughter)

TripGate Scandal (Congressional Repuglicans revolving door between aides who rake in Taxpayer and Lobbyist money and use it to enhance their lifestyles and pocketbooks. Nepotism with spouses and other family members profiting (Susan Hirshorn and others)

Safavian Trial (Former Bush Procurement Chief resigns because of shady deals)

Haditha Executions (Charges soldiers Executed Iraqi Families)

HookerGate (CIA Resignations: Porter Goss, Dusty Foggo, "Three Fingers" and a Shady Limo Service who gets Mega Bucks from Dept. Homeland Security, Energy and CIA...also prostitutes, card games and more influence peddling in "safe houses.")

CoinGate (Ohio Scandal, Tom Noe, Bob Ney involved in State Pension Fraud and Influence Peddeling for Profit)

Election Fraud: (Robert Kennedy writes article for Rolling Stone Mag. exposing Election Machine Fraud and Voter Disenfranchisement which has been going on since 2000 Selection)

Republican Phone Jamming (Convictions in New Hampshire and more investigation which go as high as Ed Gillespie and former White House staffer Alicia Davis and others involved in jamming Dem phone banks on Election Day, 20002. Update...NH Judge allow's qustioning of Gillespi and others! Good News)

House Speaker DennisHastert (Speaker Dennis Hastert's (R-IL) earned more than $1.5 million on a real estate deal affected by his highway legislation, Breaking News.)

Thanks to Talking Point Muckraker for refreshing my memory on this...

1. Small typo; it's Mojon, not Mojo
I guess the M$M got it wrong...

:hide:

1. mojon: Spanish for a cigar shaped piece of feces or turd.

A stupid lad.

Dejaron un mojón en el toilet.

Ese tipo es un mojón.


2. mojón: A spanish slang word used by many caribbeans meaning feces.

Ese gordo se largo un mojón el tamaño de esa banana.
Translation: That fat man took a crap the size of that banana.

3. mojon: Can also refer to the youngest child of the family, or a small child in general

Ese es el mojon de la familia.
Translation: He's the runt of the litter.
