16. I think Republicans have FAR MORE to worry about than Dems...

... but nevertheless, there is something hanging over Washington that is stopping the Dems from doing the right things. I don't want to speculate too much on what that is, because it would be guessing on my part, but when you have:

1) Dems still keeping "impeachment off the table"
2) Henry Waxman quietly refusing to have Sibel Edmonds testify before the government oversight committee
3) Silvestre Reyes trying to keep secret that FBI report on Duke Cunningham that revealed a lot more of the crap he was involved with.
4) Dems knuckling under and passing that stupid FISA law.

and many other things that we who believe in having the truth given to us everyplace without secrecy say "WTF?" when we hear them. Even the 9th district court, which normally is a pretty liberal court, worked under unprecedented secrecy when it heard Tom Kontogiannis's case too. I get the feeling many on that court didn't like it, but there was some axe hanging over their head too I think to keep things quiet.

You can call that having a tin foil hat, but I still feel those things amongst others show that something is rotten in the state of Denmark. And it isn't just a Republican thing either.

I think for me, I see a cornered rat in Brent Wilkes. I see a cornered rat that has nothing to lose by trying to push the levers to expose this, or "get taken care of" by those afraid if he has the power to expose things, so that he won't be "the fall guy".

That's an opportunity for us that want the truth to go after. To make sure that it is the truth which is what happens and not to allow him to "get taken care of" by the increasing coverup.
