Unlike the CBC, though, I don't WORK IN GOVERNMENT and don't have 'pull' or thousands of dollars to donate. I want people who have these things to have opinions faster than I do. Get it?

Hastings is a crook. What integrity, pray tell, does he have to rip? I guess Nancy Pelosi's a "hater," too, since she voted to impeach Hastings. And I guess the QIAB defintion of a shouter is anyone who points out the painful truth about a Democrat. Er, QIAB, your phrase “ripping his integrity” infers some lack of fair play.

I guess Nancy Pelosi’s a “hater,” too, since she voted to impeach Hastings. And I guess the QIAB defintion of a shouter is anyone who points out the painful truth about a Democrat.

Shouters spend two solid weeks ripping the man's integrity. And a nine-word response to them makes him a loon? Haw! Turns out however, he’s not only a crook, but a loon:

Wait.

Bishop is a black moderate from middle Georgia (his district includes a large military facility) and will be yet another sign of the left's being left out in the cold by the Democratic leadership. And I told you it was going to happen! And you ain't seen nothing yet. Wait till the new leadership decides to stay the course in Iraq. Its 1968 all over again - and YOU ARE THERE.

You said nothing about it when I brought it up in several threads, which I take to mean that you were waiting to see which way the political winds were going to blow on the crook's chairmanship. Righteous way to take a stand and speak truth to power, huh? Cue frameone, who will be back to explain what he meant when he argued that Hasting's nomination would have been completely justified, since he was next in line and, besides, wasn't such a bad fellow, after all. Turns out however, he's not only a crook, but a <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/11/28/AR2006112800937.html" rel="nofollow">loon</a>: "Sorry, haters, God is not finished with me yet."
