the depth of the inability of this administration, as a whole, to gauge the public (and even elected-official, which supposedly means ‘public’ anyway) outcry against the politically nepotistic practices of this administration, is deplorably unconscionable.
not that i really expect all that much from people who, as politicians, are exactly the types of people in whom such trust should be placed as a general rule, but….eeeeeesh….
Don’t hold back, Fairlane. By the way, don’t know whether this is true or not, but I read on another blog that a congressional staffer involved in the process allegedly told CNN that they were being played and that Chertoff was not the likely nominee. We shall see. I’ve always heard that Orin Hatch wants the position and is on the short list (because of senatorial ball licking rules he would pass without a big scene).
I agree FranIAm. I want to see them behind bars, but I know that the big ones will slither free. Still, my friend John and I were chatting about this and agreed that going after the smaller players who will likely not get a preemptive pardon would serve a purpose–like scare the shit out of young republicans who want to believe they are up and comers. There’s that.
Profile: i write things. sometimes not too poorly, even. i photograph things. i don't capture them, but i render how the appeared to me, or perhaps how i might have seen them if i'd been looking in a different way. i don't believe in finalities, and new beginnings are old hat with me. i am not what i appear to be, or even what i think i am. i am, in a nutshell, a nut. eat me, or feed me to an elephant.

Me hold back? Obviously you’ve never visited my blog. My middle name is “Holding back” or was it “Psychopath?” Eh.
