uicksilver workshopI say minor victory because this is probably the last you will ever hear of it. First, because the U.S. media would rather cover the NASCAR 'scandal' and Anna Nicole Smith (I refuse to link either on principle) than high crimes and misdemeanors. Second, because the story has been essentially Googlebombed out of existence by the CIA/extraordinary rendition proceedings in Italy (try and Google the CIA this week and see if you can find this story). And last, but not least, because U.S.District Judge Gladys Kessler, has been promoted and is being replaced by "former White House insider Dabney Friedrich."
I give credit where credit is due. No one plays the shell game better than this Administration. They've fired or forced-out seven U.S. Attorneys since march, and now this. It's like watching Cheney and Rove channeling Penn and Teller. If that image does haunt your dreams...
Special thanks to Matt for pointing this story out. Viva La Revolution!

no liberty of expression... it's time people start fighting for their own opinion.... as messed up as they can be... as long as it doesn't hurt anyone...... every body is welcome to express themselves with no risk....
Although I vehemently disagree with the leftist bent of this blog, I thought you might be interested in this quote as if supports your appreciation for dissent: "Last, but by no means least, courage - moral courage, the courage of one's convictions, the courage to see things through. The world is in a constant conspiracy against the brave. It's the age-old struggle - the roar of the crowd on one side and the voice of your conscience on the other." - Douglas McArthur
Enjoy!
Neocon, your thoughts and comments are always welcome. Funny thing about dissent: a leftist bent today might be a rightist bent tomorrow.
Thank you for the quote. I will add it to the rotation.
"A leader is a man who can adapt principles to circumstances."
~ General George S. Patton
