Rebel With Cause...
and miles to go before we sleep...Rep. Gary Miller (R-CA) uses political muscle for personal gain.
"There was never a clear line in the office between what was congressional business and what was just business," one former aide said. "The expectation was that you would do both." <more>

Forgot all about Gary Miller.. He certainly will be in line for investigations in January: let's not forget Rep. Jerry Lewis (got elected into office) and Rep. Ken Calvert (got reelected into office) and is still under investigation, and many more.. And Duke is still talking behind bars....
All the aides have a little bite of the truth. As the power people thought they were untouchable loss lips sink ships. With the up coming investigations alot of stories will be told. Some people don't even know they have the key to the answers as was seen in the Libby case. Just being in the right place at the right time can bring down the Dictator and his house. As was shown in the case of Jack, Ralph and Grover.

Since Gas Queen Clarice decided to pry into the Wilson's personal life about moving to New Mexico, here is an update:
Washington, D.C., couple who were at the center of a White House controversy are moving to Santa Fe.
Former Ambassador Joseph Wilson and his wife, Valerie Plame -- a former CIA agent whose identity was outed by White Houvse officials -- are moving here, Wilson said in an e-mail Monday to The New Mexican.
"Our relocating to New Mexico has nothing to do with Bill Richardson or his own future plans," Wilson said. "It has everything to do with the beauty of the state and the hospitality of its citizens."
Wilson and Plame are frequent New Mexico visitors and have friends in Santa Fe. Wilson didn't say when they will move here or where in town they'll live.
Good luck to the Wilsons in their move. And I hope they can get on with their lives and have some peace...
I just LOVE a man in uniform...
So do I.. Mmmm....
The Saudi Ambassador has left the building!! LOL
Prince Turki al-Faisal, Saudi Arabia's ambassador to the United States, flew out of Washington yesterday after informing Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and his staff that he would be leaving the post after only 15 months on the job, according to U.S. officials and foreign envoys. There has been no formal announcement from the kingdom.
The abrupt departure is particularly striking because his predecessor, Prince Bandar bin Sultan, spent 22 years on the job. The Saudi ambassador is one of the most influential diplomatic positions in Washington and is arguably the most important overseas post for the oil-rich desert kingdom.

Of course, it could all be BS, a-loon.
I thought this is an interesting tidbit regarding the update on Scooter's trial:
It could still be delayed, however, if Vice President Dick Cheney and Bush aide Karl Rove claim they cannot testify because of separation-of-powers issues since they are members of the executive branch of government. (AP)

Definition of separation of powers:
Under this international model the state is divided into branches, and each branch of the state has separate and independent powers and areas of responsibility; however, each branch is also able to place limited restraints on the power exerted by the other branches. The normal division of branches is into the executive (or government and President), the legislature, (Congress) and the judiciary.(Surpreme Court) The US system refers to the branches as "branches of government", while some systems use "government" to describe the executive.
Amazing with the McVeep and McTreason. They both are claimins executive privilege in the Wilsons lawsuit and being exempt from any civil lawsuits and now they both are scared to death in Libby's criminal trial.. It will be interesting to what Team Fitz have up their sleeves...

This is off topic, but .....
Are you all aware that a muscle twitch often is telling you "Yes, that's right."
It's called a confirming signal.
It's not infallible, but it can come in handy.
Stephanie
"They" had my son's funeral on Christmas Eve in Cobb Racist-County, Georgia. It's never a "Happy Christmas," but always worth looking forward to another, hopefully brighter, "New Year."
Thanking the stars, so many of you know what's really happening, and can help better explain it to the rest of us trapped in this mess.
"Prince Turki al-Faisal, was under subpoena by the Fitzgerald Grand Jury and with this resignation today he will be able to avoid testifying and giving important evidence. "
Well, THAT s@#$s!
But never fear, because the Lord works in mysterious ways!
Everything will work out.
(And I'll work on cleaning up my language, sorry .....)
