“Oh what a tangled web we weave, When first we practice to deceive”

Foley & cover up

NIE

But expect that Rove, Creative Response Concepts, & Fox are working 24/7 to get ahead of the
stories and get control of the news again ..... "they" will not go down with out a fight.

3. I won't believe it till we take the House. At least.
They're like those zombies you kill and bury but who keep climbing out of the dirt again... no matter how bad things look, something happens and everyone "forgets" the scandals.

4. Not just for victory
but I pray for the point that the rout washes away the plans to cheat and wage war(or something) and thus save lies and democracy BEFORE November. The ballot box is still endangered and desperation must be followed by retreat from further vicious agendas.

This may be one of the most crucial months in history.

9. If the polling is such that everyone knows the Democrats will sweep,
would they dare to try to steal it? Big risk, at that point. If they try to commit fraud and are caught, they risk losing their entire credibility on the past elections of 2000/2002/2004. Serious criminal charges, prison time...who wants to risk that? Would they attempt it with such an overwhelming public tide against them? I even think the media is prepared to really investigate election fraud this time. Election fraud can be gamed when the preception is that it's really close, but if the facts say landslide, any counter results are going to get a laser focus.

6. It's Awesome!
The Republicans are disintegrating. Scarborough and Tweety last night were lamenting that other Republicans were turning on Hastert. The Washington Times demanded Hastert's resignation.

Richard Vigurie was on two programs disowning the Bush administration and declaring is wasn't part of the "conservative movement" due to its spending, and corporatism.

Bush is portrayed as being "in denial" in Woodward's book.

Rice leaves the country amid allegations that she was warned in July, 2001 of an imminent Al-Qaeda attack by Tenet and Cofer Black. Rice initially claims she "doesn't recall" the meeting. Later it is documented as having transpired. In fact, it turns out Tenet gave a Powerpoint presentation to Condi. Woodard says he has copies of it that Tenet gave him.

Rumsfeld is pilloried by Gen. Batiste as incompetent.

Lou Dobbs has Bill Moyers on his show and Moyers labels Tom Delay, Grover Norquist, Ralph Reed, and Jack Abramoff as hypocritical and corrupt.

Now today. It's awesome. We, who've been in darkness for the last 6 years, are watching all this turn into a conflagration. And it's happening right before our eyes. It's all crumbling.

We need to redouble our efforts at the polls! We need to remove this cancer.
Give money to close races! Work for the Dems!

7. It's weird to me that it takes a sex scandal to cause the unravelling
since all the other stuff they've done is far more harmful to the whole country for generations to come, if not the whole world.

I guess ordinary people can only relate to sex scandals? :shrug:
