You’d think for the number of times we went to war over oil, including Afghanistan and Iraq, and of course wanting to invade Iran, the government whould nationalize oil as a strategic resource instead of oil corporatizing the government.

Thank god they’re such good corporate citizens in the USofA that they’ll never worry about a DoJ investigation or prosecution.

How much?

Holder/Obama figured, probably correctly, since Congress and the public suffer from terminal ADD, Holders (possibly after the fact?) recusal/plausible deniability would suffice.

Sterling coverage. Contributed.

Establishment Democrats, never big fans of this president to begin with, are starting to speak out(?)

If only. They may be taking overdoses of Preparation-H after the K-Y jelly ran out, but actually governing or expecting something from Obama; hell no.

Fine theatrics, which is the least you can ask for from these hearings

And the most we’ll get.

Love it that Holder can plead ignorance(recusal)over AP fiasco. Just have staff ask one question regarding AP, then state he’s a potential witness and voila, with an abundance of caution, gravitas and grace I must recuse myself. Turd.

Stand by for the Administration/Congressional two step. The progressive and black caucus may talk tough, until you parse their rhetoric, then you find they really back Obama. Chained CPI and means testing; we have to do what’s necessary to save Social Security and Medicare.

Obama’s wanted cuts before the 2010 study, custom made to support the dire non-effect of debt. That it’s all bullshit doesn’t matter if it supports The Beltway mindset.

I suspect even “liberal” congress critters from the bay area, Pelosi, Lee and Miller, will back Obama on chained CPI. Pelosi, from very liberal San Francisco, has already said so. Lee will kiss Obama’s butt, even if she has to close her eyes, and Miller is going conservative IMO in his dotage. I’m glad Dean has stated what has been obvious to the pups for years; Obama and the Democratic party are really DINO’s. Maybe with Deans leadership qualities a true, strong liberal party can emerge.

Congratulations to the Navy and the DIA. I’m glad our tax dollars enable such outstandingly accurate missile tracking, task force implementation, wreckage location and recovery from the depths and technical evaluation in four months. Just outstanding. Now if they’d just have shared it with the rest of the intelligence community.

Curious who the “military legal matter expert” is; civilian, military, Regime, Lind’s boss? Isn’t this trial being run from the White house, hence the transparency?

I expect the “common wisdom”(?) in Congress, the Regime and MSM, is voters have a memory disorder, much as the GOP expect the ripple effect and outcry from Sandy Hook Elementary School slaughter to dissipate. Interesting how Obama LLC continues to flog the troops on Sandy Hook, but not much else and cry’s he’s only trying to help reduce the debt on the back of retirees and Medicare recipients and that it only hurts when you turn the blade.

As to Obama and malpractice, he’s doing what benefits he and his, knowing he’s untouchable by Congress, the law and international treaties and nations. In other words he doesn’t give a fuck.

Be interesting why Obama LLC is invoking executive privilege and what Defense will do to challenge. Most Transparent Regime Ever©.

Reid will be forever the Neville Chamberlain of Amerika, Inc.

That position has been taken in 2009 by Obama LLC. How about Philippe Pétain instead?

I thought DailyKos were Obambutt puppets but the rants on The Peoples View and their acolytes put Kos to shame. I don’t understand how Bushco continues to hold on to 28% of the population, yet Obama has his own die hard, unblinking, unreasoning, unthinking poodles too. That’s half the population that are beyond reason. If an intelligent, engaged citizenry is required to continue our Republic, we’re in deep shit.
