Quotables:
W said Thursday he wished the execution of Saddam Hussein "had gone in a more dignified way."
Will someone explain to me how premeditated, cold-blooded, calculated, intentional, deliberate murder (and that's what the death penalty is, no matter what alleged justification you conjure up for it) be more "dignified"? A public hanging is just plain barbarism, brought to you by the 11th Century. How do you make that more "dignified"?
Then the Republicans now have the unmitigated gall to complain that Nancy Pelosi appears to be considering hoisting them on their own petard. They have the 20 pound 'nads necessary to actually say that she is letting the American people down by treating them just as they treated the Democrats.
Well cry me a river.
"The much ballyhooed commitment to minority rights is virtually nonexistent," complained Rep. David Dreier, who as Rules Committee chair was the person mainly charged with executing the Republican policy of curtailing minority voices. "Promises were made, and they are not being kept," whined Dreier. "That is the thing that I find most troubling."
Now THAT takes a COMPLETE lack of shame.
And finally, from Representative Kingston of Georgia, upon hearing the news that Steny Hoyer intended to make the Congress work more that two days per week:
"Marriages suffer. The Democrats could care less about families -- that's what this says."
All I can say is "wow -- is this jerk out of touch."
