Fredo Has Gone Fishing

It's no wonder that the Prez assigned the moniker of "Fredo" to the deposed AG. The guy didn't appear to have a handle on basic legal matters like the Constitution, Habeas or his memory for that matter. Al Berto did the honorable thing by taking his ball and going home. In the end he was not the right point man for the president's executive power grab orchestrated in the name of national security. Just like the weak minded Fredo Corleone he couldn't keep it together when pressured under oath about his involvement in the Rovian politicization scheme at the DOJ.

The only photo missing from the weekend meeting between the Prez and Alberto was one of W. laying one of those wet new years eve kisses on his Fredo. I new it was you all along.

He's Gone, Let It Go...

Karl "turd blossom" Rove has left the White House presumably to start his career as caretaker of the eighth circle of hell.

I am asking all of the Democratic leadership in the House and Senate (especially Leahy, Waxman and Conyers) to give it a rest and move on to bigger and badder things. Yes we all wanted to see Rove's head on a pike in front of the capital building but alas it's not going to happen. The guy has always proved to slippery to nabbed cold handed. Honestly gents, it was starting to look a bit quixotic in the way every investigation or line of inquiry would some how lead to getting the goods on Bush's brain.

I suggest we focus our efforts on more important and even attainable goals. Mr. Leahy get the Phase II intelligence report back on track. Mr. Conyers how about more attention to assuring fair elctions, there's a big one coming up next year. Henry keep doing that oversight and contracting abuse thing that you do so darn well. Karl would have been a nice prize but it's time to move on.
