1. His career is over
Edited on Mon May-10-04 11:38 AM by nadinbrzezinski
But he has truly done a service to his country that most idiots will not understand

Oh and Dareil Issa is an idiot... he is the man who led the recall as you may remember

Oh and notice that Issa stoped at the Liuteneants,

Hey Darrell, how about oh... General Myers? Didn't Lindsey Graham ask for those WITH STARS on their shoulders to face the music?

2. General Taguba, the loose cannon ?
Reportedly, the General with all the information, is scheduled to testify this week. Many in the military are already looking warily at him. What will his say? How much will he say? Will the Joint Chiefs and other "leaders" attempt to dissuade him from testifying?

How much more information will Congress get from him that they never got from Rumsfeld or Myers? Could this lead to a fullscale investigation? Will his testimony result in the photos and videotapes being made public. Will he turn over his entire report to Sy Hersh?

4. they are trying to get Stephen Cambone
Edited on Mon May-10-04 11:47 AM by riverwalker
who is balking. He was the guy in the bad toupee and square glasses who kept mumbling things into Rumsfeld's ear during the hearings last week. He is a very, interesting player.

This is an old story about him and Rummy.
http://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansascity/news/breaking_news/5905046.htm?1c
"Rumsfeld was asked at a news conference about recurring speculation that he installed one of his closest aides, Stephen Cambone, as undersecretary of defense for intelligence as a power grab aimed at undermining the authority of CIA Director George Tenet."

The committee has to ask some REAL questions this time, and NOT roll over again. What was Doug Feith's role? Paul Wolfowitz? We know how high it goes. They have to take off the gloves.

5. I have the sneaky feeling they
gave them a chance, and as doors are slammed by Bush and he
closes more and more doors.... Bush is giving them less and less
wiggle room

6. Stick to guide lines
he will be saying something but nothing will make sense, because he has been threaten, these pigs will go the whole nine yards to stop a riot. I just wish that Dem's can protect him, he did his job let us remember that, if Dem's have a landslide victory in November we should remember him.
