take that, rove!

Somehow, it just seems that the whole Bush ponzi scheme is unraveling.

Code_Archeologist: Well... somebody is going to be going to prison.

Stop trying to cheer me up.

/thanks, though

Code_Archeologist: Well... somebody is going to be going to prison.

we can only hope.

Code_Archeologist: Well... somebody is going to be going to prison.

Dare to dream

Code_Archeologist: Well... somebody is going to be going to prison.

Sure thing... the democrats taking power of both houses sure set all that in motion... all the impeachments, trials, and...... wait... never mind.

The democrats didn't do a farkin thing!!!!!

Keep dreaming.... as you watch your party totally self-destruct.

Code_Archeologist: Well... somebody is going to be going to prison.

It would be sweet.

I don't think Code_Archeologist is a republican.

I don't think so either. If you've been paying much attention to the news lately, it would appear that the democrats are in self-destruct mode. Or hadn't you noticed the little squabble going on?

Let's see.

Iraq crumbling.
Economy collapsing.
Political prisoners being released from jail.
GOP as popular as syphilis.

I would worry about your own problems before shedding any tears over the disputants in a primary race.

Skleenar: your own problems

What makes you think those are my problems? I'm an anarchist. fark both parties...... lying politicians is a redundant statement. kill em all, let god sort em out.

real shaman: What makes you think those are my problems? I'm an anarchist.

An anarchist should be painting slogans on walls, not posting on an Internet developed by the government.

/and paying a monthly fee to an ISP.

'Cause baby, I'm an anarchist,
You're a spineless liberal.
We marched together for the eight-hour day
And held hands in the streets of Seattle,
But when it came time to throw bricks
Through that Starbucks window,
You left me all alone.

/Against Me!

I'm guessing he's an an-cap, in which case his doing this makes sense. Not all anarchists are commies.

I live in Houston.

I've seen a case against a democrat politician in Houston thrown out by the judge for no evidence.
In another case against a republican judge, the grand jury indicted over the DA's objection.

Not building confidence in the system.

How the Republicans Hacked the Justice Department.

Ah, a Republican.

You don't vote, they win. So, whatever you may believe, keep it clear that your *actions* help the Republicans.

(Oh, and there are more than two parties.)

Skleenar: How the Republicans Hacked the Justice Department.

It's local cases, with local DA who resigned over joke emails.

Remove all Republicans: If you are for less government, you are part of the problem.

Then you must have loved the last 8 years.

Guys guys guys, this is Fark, we're missing the main point.

His co-defendant is Richard Scrushy.

it sounds like either a nasty rash or something a Jr High girl uses to put her hair in a pony tail

Just because this one is going on longer than usual doesn't make it a self destruct sequence...

That usually involves a pleasant female voice counting backwards.

There are no pleasant female voices in politics. Especially not on the Democratic party side.

So you think the Texas GOP just sat around and didn't learn from the Feds?

When you consider that Texas has an openly partisan method of selecting judges, it very well be that the Feds learned from TX.

Skleenar:
GOP as less popular as syphilis.

Syphilis is a disease with a long and distinguished career. Why, half the crowned heads in European history had it. Don't sully it's reputation by comparing it to Republicans.

Can we please stop with the goddamned "less government/more government" bullshiat and start working towards effective, efficient, and responsive government, no matter what the farking physical size of it is?

Remove all Republicans: real shaman: What makes you think those are my problems? I'm an anarchist. fark both parties...... lying politicians is a redundant statement. kill em all, let god sort em out.

If you are for less government, you are part of the problem. See a part of the solution.

More government sure hasn't solved anything so far, so let's pile on even more!

Sorry, not making a lot of sense.

I'm from Alabama, live in Birmingham, hate Karl Rove and everything to do with the GWB administration. But Siegelman was exceptionally corrupt and deserved his sentence, along with former HealthSouth CEO Richard Scrushy, with whom he had shady business dealings with. Rove's influence is incidental. So before you celebrate too hard, realize that a guilty man is leaving jail on a technicality.

Let's see,
news story about a politician having trouble with the law? Check.
No mention at all of party affiliation? Check.
A quick google informs you that it's (D)? Check.

Farkers who would be celebrating his conviction if he were an (R)
instead celebrating the possibility that his conviction could be overturned? Check.

//Just another day in paradise.

YixilTesiphon: More government sure hasn't solved anything so far, so let's pile on even more!

I like our "more" government than Iraq's "less" government.

Are you really this dumb, or do you just play it in threads?

Iraq's "less" government is a product of our "more" government.

"Hello, Secret Service? We have some rich, white boy talkin' trash about taking out Mr. President here. No, I don't mind being put on hold ..."

I'm just gonna have to weigh what you say against 52 formers State Attorneys General to see what I believe.

Hmmm...

52 state Attorneys General, or a pseudonymous login on Fark....


Hmm....

YixilTesiphon: Iraq's "less" government is a product of our "more" government.

So would be our "less" government be, unless you are proposing treason.

I think subbie overstated the case a bit. It remains to be seen whether Seigelman accepted bribes or not. Schrushy's role in making HealthSouth the Enron of the South is essentially beyond dispute, and I doubt his keen sense of personal ethics would keep him from offering a bribe if it suited him.

I am *not* disputing that Rove almost certainly (and I only use words like "almost" and "essentially" because I wasn't there) helped orchestrate the prosecution as a political matter. But I'm old school enough to believe it's not really entrapment if they just caught you doing what you were already doing.

That said, Rove, Seigelman, and Schrushy in the same cell, could this somehow be arranged, would be a bi-partisan trifecta. In short, to use the punchline of several old jokes, a good start.

/yeah I'm from Bama
/but at least I wear shoes

weeklier: I'm from Alabama, live in Birmingham, hate Karl Rove and everything to do with the GWB administration. But Siegelman was exceptionally corrupt and deserved his sentence, along with former HealthSouth CEO Richard Scrushy, with whom he had shady business dealings with.

Really? Then why was there no evidence of this given at his trial?

That makes no sense at all. Which isn't a surprise, coming from a socialist. (Am I assuming too much? Correct me if I am.)

Wait, so the media fails to say DEMOCRAAAAAAT for both convictions and releases on appeal?

RandomKeyStrike: But I'm old school enough to believe it's not really entrapment if they just caught you doing what you were already doing.

The accusation in this case is that Scrushy offered money not to Siegelmann himself, but instead to fund a campaign for a state lottery and that he was rewarded by getting to remain in a seat on an advisory board that he would likely not have had to leave anyway.

There is precious little quid and a negligible pro quo.

And the evidence was fabricated.

YixilTesiphon: That makes no sense at all. Which isn't a surprise, coming from a socialist. (Am I assuming too much? Correct me if I am.)

Well, I can now assume that you make unsurprisingly lame assumptions.

Just remember:

It's the Democraps who believe that the C.I.A. invented A.I.D.S. in order to infect the Black Americans.

I voted for Don Siegelman. I live here in this state and I lived through Siegelman's shenanigans. He's guilty. Rove's a douche. Life goes on.

Sorry, fixed link.

Dick_Hertz: Just remember:

It's the Democraps who believe that the C.I.A. invented A.I.D.S. in order to infect the Black Americans.

Did FreeRepublic go down or something?

So.. if one person says something and that means that everybody in their party believes it.

It's the Republicans who believe in black helicopters and water fluoridation conspiracies.

They also believe that Barack Obama is a Muslim.

(gee, this logic is fun!)

Also remember :

Polls indicate that 35% of Democraps believe that Bush new about the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, beforehand!

/That's some mighty powerful stoopidity!

I believe they've said it was sarcasm. But then again, real shaman's comments are pretty silly, too.

Woohoo! I can't wait to watch Bill O'Reilly hammer Rove on this the next time that little turd appears on the Factor!

Or maybe they'll just devote 30 minutes to discussing Obama's scary black pastor man.

So we should be smart by believing that Iraq was behind 9/11 and we should have voted for the thinking man's candidate George W. Bush?
