Well, Pelozi has taken back her threats about those investigations, but
we'll see. If they expect to seat a liberal in the WH in 2008, they'll be
smarter if they leave everything alone. BTW, I've noticed that the dems
aren't screaming 'fixed' election this time.

Rumsfeld can and probably will be investigated by the dems. I sure
hope so, as that will be the dems downfall for 2008.

There's nothing to stop them from doing so, as they can investigate
anyone at anytime.

BTW, Rummy knew he wouldn't last through the elections, especially if they
lost control of congress. Unless of course, you believe that Bush called
up Bob Gates when he saw the 'thumping' they took on election day and
gave him 5 minutes to think about taking the job.

Actually, it'll be the other way around. Make it something that Bush will
pass and they'll have the assurance that it will. Force something down his
throat and they'll find veto or no action stamped on their legislation.

Veto means that they'll have to find 67% of both houses to get it passed
without Bush's signature. With such a weak majority, they probably won't
even try.

No Action means that the legislation will just die on Bush's desk.

If they do that, they're fools and will have killed their parties hopes
for the white house, next time.

More likely, probable.

Will that be before or after she takes off her 'conservative' mask? On
second thought, I hope whatever mask she's wearing, she decides to keep it
on.

What deficit?

Yeah, I guess dems are more prone to supporting their tax and spend crazy
leaders than repubs. Our taxes have gone down under Bush.

So, they're two faced, as they called themselves conservatives, or at
least moderates during their campaigns. I noticed that none of them said
we'll raise your taxes or more gun control is needed...

The fear campaign just started. You admitted that the dems will begin to
investigate, supeona and try the admin staff, all the way to the President
... if that is true, then the moniker of 'two faced dems' lives on.
