She can't talk without giving up her boss in the US Atty scandal.

Rats, ships.

I'm waiting for a John Dean/Nixon Tapes moment to hit this admministration broadside, and put it out of it's misery.

I still remember looking up and seeing the statue of David's testicles out in the Gold Coast of Australia while Attorney General Asscroft was covering up the breasts of that statue about that very same moment...

TV is such a medium to convey certain truths that never change:>)

She can't talk without giving up her boss in the US Atty scandal.

Posted by Corky


She specifically said that she will plead the 5th because she KNOWS as everyone knows that it is a perjury trap.

You know this Corky. This makes you a liar.

When you see it in the True Light, the Democrats look really bad.


Why do the Democrats need to set traps?

What exactly IS a perjury trap?

Just don't lie.

Tell the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth. No trap there.

You can't have a perjury trap if there's no perjury, can you?

This whole thing just smells so much like a rose, don't it?

"as everyone knows that it is a perjury trap."

Thats a crock and you know it. All she has to do is tell the truth. If she hasn't done anything illegal, she has nothing to worry about, except some possible embarrassment at being involved in something kinda slimy, at best.

When one tells the truth, there can be no trap. When one tells lies they are bound to be caught. LLPOF, you of ALL people should know that since you have been caught so many times.

"You know this Corky. This makes you a liar"

I believe it has been firmly established that you have no standing to call anyone else a liar.

You have to understand, San Antone.

Anyone who comes to a different conclusion than a Reichwinger is a liar.

They can only think in absolutes, if you can call that thinking. This particular sad case, Least American, is dumber than your average fence post, to boot, so we have to make allowances.

what if they cant tell the truth, what if they have to lie to protect america?? did you ever think of that??

nooo, you just want to make guilty people look innocent!!

our governemtn had to lie in order to protect their secrets which they need to protect us! i don't know why you cant see this because its so clear!

lastamerican is trying to tell you not to worry because the president and vice president are looking out for you. they love you and they love america and they want you and america to be safe and happy!

it makes lastamerican very sad when you lie about him and his son like you do. hes only trieing to tell you the truth but just because you listen to the msm like the ny teims or msnbxc you think hes a dishonest creep! he loves america too!

you should leaf him alone!

She quit because she is a wussy that can't answer a few questions. I respect her right to use the constitution to be a wussy. We'll see more of this. We've only just begun to see the wussy factor of this administration. Scooter and Monica are just the start.

YEAH!


Those dirty liberals with their gypsi spells are going to trick that poor little girl into lieing!

You have it all figured lastA!

"Perjury trap" Is the newest talking point to vomit from the mouths of punditheads. Gozales' aids are pleading the 5th because they don't want to felons for lying to a grand jury.(which apparently is no longer a crime in the eyes of some)

Translation for "perjury trap" = I lied and don't wanna get caught.

I'd guess that if anybody put out a "perjury trap," we'd find not Monica Goodling caught in it, but rather Mr. Gonzales and Mr. Rove, and most likely a whole lot of other people.

But what amazes me is...Why didn't Bill Clinton's lawyer think of this!!?? A "perjury trap"--why, the magnificent legal beauty and simplicity of it all--

May God bless Monica Goodling with an appreciation of the importance of telling the truth.

Well, she wins the award for first AG aide to claim the 5th in US history.

Her parents must be so proud.

BL2...Last American...Vernon....and all other rightwing asswipes....I think you guys should get together and figure out a plan...you guys continually get your asses kicked on this board defending the indefensible...your pathetic, but loyal....maybe you guys need some kind of "surge" to win your arguments...give it a try and see where you guys are in July...by then anohter 100 americans will have died in Iraq for NOTHING...but hey better over there then over here...isn't that the slogan of the month?..I believe it replaces the ever popular.."freedom ain"t free"...that's my favorite!

Perjury traps only trap liars. Funny thing, when you just tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth no perjury trap can catch you but then if you are part of this administration you probably don't even know what the truth is.
Wasn't Dick Cheney cute on Rush's show the other day, lying his ass off as always even as the report came out that documented the untruth of his statements.
I think he only continues lying to please the stupid folks who still are part of the low IQ 30%.

Comedian, I think it's called "canine loyalty."

The Fifth for a justice department official (ex-justice department official).

A FIRST IN AMERICAN HISTORY.

PRetty simple, just don't lie, no perjury, no sin, no hell.

Tell the Truth and you don't have to worry about all those lies.

Here's the obvious, unasked question:
Why are those with the power to do so not giving her immunity from prosecution which would compell her testimony?
We have heard nothing suggesting criminal involvement; give her immunity and then fire away with the questions.
If she refuses to testify after immunity is granted she would stand in contempt of congress.
Sprung free of the purjury trap, the righties would have one less trivial talking point and may have to actually hear the truth, the whole truth and nothing but thae truth.
(Sound of trembling stage right)

This Evangelical pretend attorney should be subpoenaed and then charged with contempt of Congress if she doesn't show up. Oh, she can still take the fifth if she wants but the questions will be asked first, her stating over and over that she is taking the fifth would be an admission of guilt for her and for the Justice Dept.

I just wonder how the right wing loons can stand to look in the mirror after the pretend that she somehow has a right to refuse to testify when they know full well that they said exactly the opposite when the vast right wing conspiracy was after Clinton. Have they no shame?

Her college pictures show her as a pretty lady. My hope is this will enable her to get a high paying job on the outside and many contacts. After that, perhaps write a book once the heat dies down.

You don't want to get in between these power players. Her position in taking the 5th is very difficult to manage and hopefully in taking this route, she can live a less stressful life.

There is enough information already out there where a real investigation can determine any wrong doing. Karl Rove gave a recent speech in Alabama that outlined this judges as being part of a strategy of putting judges in play and keeping their people in indefinitely because of provisions slipped in the Patriot Act

Why is it only a scandal for THIS administration? How many U.S.Attorneys were put onto the unemployment rules by The HILDABEASTS' Hubby????

Corky-
Lost(hisass)American dumber than the average fence post?

I beg to differ......

He starts arguments with dumber than average fenceposts-and LOSES.

He'd be out of his depth in a parking lot puddle......

I'm still struggling to accept that her name is Monica.

What goes around comes around, a pleasing circularity, chasing one's tail, head up one's ass, devil in a blue dress, the Bill becomes due, a Starr is reborn?

What's it all mean, I ask.

Watching Republicans try to justify and explain and compare the fiasco over at the Justice Department is fast becoming one of the most amusing shows in DC. Wake up neocon idiots! Get rid of Gonzalez and cut your losses. Or better yet, don't get rid of Gonzalez and let the issue fester until the Presidential elections. We Democrats appreciate being given a gift wrapped present of Republican corruption.

If Republicans had any sense, they'd do as Moder8 says. So why don't they? I think it may be that they just can't find a replacement. It also accounts for why they hung on to Rumsfeld so long and are pushing this Fox guy(what an appropriate name!) as ambassador to Belgium.

Who they gonna call? Harriet?! Ken Starr?!
Would you go and work for this bunch of unpopular losers and jeopardize your future prospects if you weren't already a slavish Bushie and they seem to be running out of them?

Fox and Monica. There is a God and he has a sense of humor.

Her college pictures show her as a pretty lady. My hope is this will enable her to get a high paying job on the outside and many contacts. After that, perhaps write a book once the heat dies down.


Harrier


Thanks for answering a question I have.

How does she plan to pay her attorney fees now that she is no longer a government employee? This is likely to be expensive for her.

Dumber?


How many people responded to my "dumb" post?

She wanted to avoid a perjury trap because, don't you idiots remember that last time it happened. Some guy went up there and say "I don't remember" and a jury found him guilty.

Was he lying? No.

The jury was after the White House, remember?

An appellate court is going to overturn it.


Now, again, what person would put themselves through a perjury trap to go through years of hell, by the hands of the Democrats?

When they can just plead the fifth.

and avoid a train wreck in slow motion....



Care to answer that one Corky, my pointed headed firend?

I count 17 far left idiots who answered my post on this thread.

That sets a whole new record on trollen.

Makes you wonder how far the Libs are go to go.

Meantime, Pelosi may have committed a felony.

Bullshit. Scooter gave different stories to the grand jury than he did the original investigators. And he was found guilty of 4 out of 5 of the charges, and now you think he didn't lie?

"perjury trap" means "i think i may have broken the law and dont want to go to jail for lying about it" That's all it is. You cant plead the fifth unless you yourself ALREADY committed a crime, and there's no need to lie if you didn't. She is the ONLY AG aide in US history to plead the fifth, you douchebag.

Your "pelosi felony" bullshit has already been addressed btw.

The lady does not want to be put into the same "witch hunt" situation as Libby is in now.

I wouldn't.

Yeah, and it was bogus.
Da bitch be in trouble!

Fence post- 17

If convoluted logic were pennies, LA would be wealthy.

"put into the same "witch hunt" situation as Libby is in now."

Yeah...too bad Libby didn't just tell the truth once under oath. That would've shown those witch hunters!

The stink of this administration rears it behind again!

Governing the nation by politics reduces the ability of the nation to perform at its highest standard. It is counter productive.

What is truely interesting is watching LastAm. continue to support such practice.

This whole thing an actual commentary of this administration, no matter the outcome, the damage is already done. The nation knows the Bush cabal is corrupt and liars, and congress should stop asking questions and investigate the actions. If violation found, swift punishment should result.

This will put back tracking on this administration and reduce the amount of further damage they can create to the nation.
