"If that does not happen, Congress should impeach Mr. Gonzales."

My goodness, the New York Times is normally such a bastion of rational thought - now they're invoking that crazy-train "I" word!  Don't they know what that will do to their readership??

Good response to Hillary's arrogance...

Tell me again why my tax dollars are going to upgrading everyone else's military infrastructure?  Good thing this is top priority and that we've got so much cash to spare...  Ron Paul non-interventionism 2008!
 
 
 
(P.S.- I removed everyone as contributors to the blog, which means you can now respond without your response (or any personal info) getting published - so at least the initial news will be out there for others to read and respond to, even if they can't see our conversations...)

Michael Moore served subpoena by the Bush administration

(by the way, I'm starting to test reviving my failed attempt at blogging in the past - it went okay before, but I found that more than just me was needed to keep the posts flowing etc.  Hopefully we can continue our email conversations exactly as is, but cc'ing bizchris.improvethevote@blogger.com will post all of our responses as separate posts that others can comment on if they see fit.  It's the best fit I could think of for letting us continue with business as usual with little maintenance, but letting the rest of the world participate if they want... you can see it at http://www.improvethevote.com, which was my initial effort)
