Feinstein's answer

"Feinstein, D-Calif., said her vote for Muksaey's confirmation came down in part to practicality. If Mukasey's nomination were killed, she said, Bush would install an acting attorney general not subject to Senate confirmation and make recess appointments to fill nearly a dozen other empty jobs at the top of Justice"

---------------------------------
Will she tire of Bush's strong arming our government enough to vote to Impeach?
Will Schumer?
A NO vote from any of our Dems tells me that they don't mind leaving 'we the people' to fend for ourselves.

What is in this for Schumer? I just don't understand the mentality here.
Does Schumer truely believe Mukasey will err on the side of American justice, over Bush's corpo-neo-fascist government?

:nuke:

lol isnt that what ud be doing for him anyway?

so whats the difference?

atleast by rejecting it shows u have some backbone.


what a crock-o-shit

The other jobs can only be stopped if your oppose them. This is for Attorney General, HEAD HONCHO.

...then Bush wouldn't have the opportunity for a recess appointment. Sacrifice your next vacation, use Parliamentary procedure, do SOMETHING. ANYTHING. It seems our only strategy in fighting Bush is hope and wishing.

.

No and no.

Senators cannot vote to impeach. Only member of the House can.

comprehend their decision to vote Mukasey. Because I cannot possibly think like a fuc*in fascist Republican.

Its come down to black & white. Either your for fascism or you're against it. Simple.

house knows it can proceed and send it to the senate with confidence it will pass

This is a US Senator?

We are in deep, deep shit.

a special prosecutor to look into war crimes committed by the Bush Crime Family!

during Nixon. That congress was a good one. This one sucks.

Great, just fucking great. Would Bush have had an acting AG, sure, he also would have done recess appointments. But by forcing him to take those actions, you would have given a loud voice to the country that opposition is alive and well in the halls of Congress, and your hands would be clean. However the message that you send with your vote to approve is that there is no opposition in Congress, that the Democrats are neutered, stifled, whimpering little yes critters that actively aid and abet this criminal administration. Diane, by your actions you are approving every single criminal act that comes out of the Dept. of Justice from here on out.

It is past time for the Dems to stop cowering in a corner. They have the people behind them, they have the power they need, it is time for them to do either one of two things, stand up and fight, or get the hell out of the way and let the people of this country take their government and country back from a gang of thieves and murderers.

Cannot say it better than this.
Congress members can no longer say they are on our side and vote to strengthen Bush.
Its Either, Or.
Now get the hell off the fence.

You say it well Madhound.

Sometimes being pissed lends one eloquence. I've been supremely pissed for a long while now.

That's her excuse?
here is what she should do

and what Feistein is saying is exactly true. Not to mention that he's perfectly happy with the acting AG, who is currently impeding investigations into contractor fraud in Iraq.

Do you have a counter strategy for this? Other than impeachment, which isn't going to happen anytime soon, if at all?
