Dec-12-07 | | Jim Bartle: (True) Comment from US Attorney General on the destroyed interrogation tapes: "'I think the Justice Department is capable of doing whatever it appears needs to be done,' Mukasey said. 'The question of a special prosecutor is the most hypothetical of hypotheticals, and that isn't going to be faced until it happens. And if it has to be, it will be.'" Is that clear? |

Dec-12-07 | | Calli: “As we all know, the president said he’s The Decider. That actually is quite a profound point. The president is The Decider and the main thing he decides about is risk.” - Doug Feith Feith was a neocon under Rumsfeld and drove the Iraqi invasion. He said this Monday night at the American Enterprise Institute event. Truth is even stranger than Odd Lies. |
|
Dec-12-07 | | Jim Bartle: And Douglas Feith is even stranger yet. |
|
Dec-12-07 | | GeauxCool: Of course he's strange, he's half-man, half-goat.
"Everyone who bought and sold (the work) did so in good feith," he said. (wannabe's link) |
|
Dec-12-07 | | chessmoron: Douglas Feith is a 'faun'? |
|
Dec-12-07 | | GeauxCool: If it was just for his brown nose and not the horn, I'd have said he was a fawn. |
|
Dec-12-07 | | Jim Bartle: Of course his immediate boss was a Wolf (-owitz). |

|
Dec-13-07 | | Jim Bartle: (Warning: truth ahead) I'm surprised by how many pitchers are on the list, including (gasp!) Roger Clemens. Previously it had been mainly hitters. |
|

 | | tamar: Hitters are using aids, now pitchers are using them. It's just Advanced Baseball. |
|
Dec-13-07 | | Calli: Roger Clemens has been suspended for 60 games. Wait, isn't that when he normally starts the season anyway? |
|
Dec-13-07 | | Whitehat1963: Well, at least this proves once and for all that Sammy Sosa has always been clean!! |
|
Dec-13-07 | | angslo: <tamar: Hitters are using aids, now pitchers are using them. It's just Advanced Baseball.>

 | | tamar: <Whitehat1963: Well, at least this proves once and for all that Sammy Sosa has always been clean!!> But his bat has been found guilty and is languishing in Cook County Jail. |
|
Dec-13-07 | | whiteshark: Why must <tamar> always starts his comments with <Hahaha> ??? I don't get it. |
|
Dec-13-07
 | | tamar: Hahaha <Whiteshark> But that is a lie. |
|
Dec-13-07 | | whiteshark: Now I tell you a <top secret<<>>>: I've already won one of these clue prices, but can't recall the clue# anymore. Can you help me, please ?? |
|
Dec-13-07 | | HFlew: I'm not quite sure I understand the Odd Lie page...
