4. Here we go..
Tks for the heads up MiniMe.

Wishing for a miracle. That two (or more) Senators have come to their senses.

What are the odds of Waxman persuing any legal action with Mukasey on board.

11. Someone needs to ask Murkasey this question BEFORE they vote...
"Would you refuse to acknowledge past, present and future acts of torture approved and carried out by this Administration in order to protect them from being prosecuted for war crimes in this country, or by an international court? Please answer yes or no, and then you may explain your answer. Thank you."

THis would cut right to the core of the issue that Murkasey is dancing around.

Leahy may have listened
or at least he thinks alike. He just referred to "this administration's LAWLESSNESS". This is a very strong term, and I wonder what it means coming from Leahy. I think/hope he did not use it lightly.
