[...] This’ll have Keith Olbermann spitting flames tonight. Nomination passes, 11-8. Sen. Leahy scolds disruptive members of the public. Sen. Kennedy is giving a statement lambasting Mukasey. He actually fumed about the “reckless disregard of the rule of law.” Yes, Teddy Kennedy did. [...]

Liberal Lunacy again-One insignificant item(water-boarding)determines the left’s negative votes on an otherwise highly qualified nominee.No wonder the Democratic Party nominates so many single-issue candidates.
An Iranian-American actor took waterboarding for four minutes.Must be some terrible torture.I guess subjecting the terrorists to Rosie O would have to be considered cruel and unusual,I can’t take her for 30 seconds.

I’m with 30; “Is there video available?” Now that would be great TV and the moonbats would learn quickly how well waterboarding works without risking a person’s life.

Personally, I prefer tazing – LOL

Johnson cross-posted the letter at Daily Kos. The comment section is a hoot. One of the commenters pointed out that having Plame and Wilson on the list would make the letter less credible for the conservative and moderate Senators they need to sway in order to derail Mukasey. Of course he is attacked by the others on the board. His point is valid except that he doesn't realize that the credibility is in question because of Larry Johnson's name being on it in the first place.

This is hopefully a good sign and they will get this confirmation vote done and over with.

All of those names listed as opposing Mukasey read like a virtual “Rogue’s Gallery” of deranged individuals that, to paraphrase an old song, “fought the prez and the prez won”. Sore losers all.

Hard to believe Schumer and Feinstein actually doing something constructive. Guess we will know for sure in a couple of hours.

Now maybe they can take care of the real business … like passing the budget that is months overdue and get it to the President.
