Posted by dj moonbat at October 21, 2005 05:35 PMBush suicide watch. Or Bush intervention. Or strategy session on how to keep the Bush crack-up out of the National Enquirer.
Posted by Raenelle at October 21, 2005 05:40 PMc isn't really an option: we've already invaded Syria.
Posted by Brian Boru at October 21, 2005 05:44 PMfair enough, brian, but what i mean isn't invade syria in the way that kerry was part of an incursion into cambodia, but invade cambodia in the sense of a wag the dog, punish them for the lebanese assassination way.

thanks for the visual, dj
a question -- invade with what troops or what anything?
Posted by dorita at October 21, 2005 06:09 PMSadly, I fear it will be another Saturday Night Massacre. Nixon, remember, is Bush's personal role-model. And what Nixon did in '73 will suit Bush just fine. Of course, back then there were conscientious statesmen (Richardson, Ruckelshaus) who refused to carry out Nixon's order to fire Special Prosecutor Cox. (Nixon had to use hit man Robert Bork to do the dirty deed.) But today there are no such men or women of principle in either party or in the mainstream media, so Bush will have a much easier time of it. And with Fitzgerald gone, BushCo can just cruise through the next three years, thumbing their noses at (or jailing) anybody who dares challenge them.
Posted by Tom H. at October 21, 2005 06:44 PMI wonder who else is "invited".
Posted by judyo at October 21, 2005 06:44 PMWho else do you suppose is "invited"?
Posted by judyo at October 21, 2005 06:45 PMthey're going to do the elephant walk, and other team-building fraternity stunts from Dubya's Yale days...

Posted by tempus at October 21, 2005 09:12 PMScheming what they can do in the next four days to put indictments on the last page of the newspapers.
Posted by Judith at October 21, 2005 10:02 PMWe are watching "Bush vs Cheney" and "CIA vs the Bush Administration" at the same time. Card and Bush are discussing "Bush team" survival. When the ship starts to sink or the lights are turned on, the roaches and rats take on their primitive personalities. With Rove at risk, Card will have to develop a denial based finger pointing plan to deceive the public!!!
Posted by smooth at October 22, 2005 12:07 AMCount me in the Saturday Night Massacre Camp.
And with no opposition from Congress and no existing press, it'll work like a dream.
Glorious Leader's numbers may fall some more, but that is meaningless to them.
Posted by euzoius at October 22, 2005 07:16 AMI'm worried it's not a 'Saturday night massacre'.
It will happen early next week, before Fitz can announce hias indictments.
It will be a blanket pardon for everyone and everything investigated by Fitz. The pardon's legal documents will include the Niger Treason cases but in language that obscures the truth from the public.
Then Bushie will give a "them-a-culpa, but I forgive them" speech to the nation framing it as "overly zealous assistants who made an inadvertant error regarding a CIA officer".
Posted by John Forde at October 22, 2005 08:33 AMThen Fitzgerald can call a press conference and explain to the American people the indictments that he was getting ready to hand down against the Bush Administration prior to the Saturday Night Massacre. That would go over big.
No, it's time for a terror warning from Bin Laden, televised from Cheney's bunker.
Posted by Judith at October 22, 2005 09:37 AMdoes Card mountain bike? Maybe he's just there to work out with Bush, now that Miers is cramming for her exam and Condi is out of pocket. Card doesn't come across as a he-man, so he probably won't threaten to out push-up Georgie.
