Congressional Sanctuary Denied
Common sense tells me this ruling was a no-brainer but you never can tell in DC, especially when the courts are involved and the case involves a crooked Democrat (what other kind is there?), bribes and most importantly, Congress’ high opinion of itself. That last is a joke considering the many jerks who have been elected, convicted of crimes or found swimming in the Tidal Basin drunk with a stripper (remember Wilbur Mills?).
This judge did the only thing a reasonable man could do ... slap Congress on the wrist and tell them flat out that their precious “speech and debate” argument is utter bullshit in cases like this. Jefferson still denies wrongdoing even though he was caught redhanded with the cold, hard cash from a bribe (literally). Donks never admit wrongdoing. That is a party commandment cast in concrete by Teddy Kennedy in 1969.
They are however, quick to point the finger at Republicans who get caught. The Donks had planned to ride the whole Abramoff bribe scandal all the way to November and pick up seats by accusing the GOP of being the “party of corruption”. Horse feathers! Jefferson is going down. He struggled to hold on to his prestigious seat as Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, even though he is under investigation and with hard evidence against him in plain view. The Donks had to pressure him to step down to save face.
Now Nancy Pelosi is backtracking, issuing a statement that “no one is above the law and that congressional members should not be allowed to use their offices to conceal criminal activity”. But she added that “this particular search could have been conducted in a manner that fully protected the ability of the prosecutors to obtain the evidence needed to do their job while preserving constitutional principles.”
Nice try, Nancy. It won’t wash. Jefferson is guilty as sin and trying to deny the FBI the ability to do their job based on some obscure interpretation of the Constitution is complete hogwash. As usual, the Donks are stretching the truth and their credibility at the same time. How do these people get re-elected anyway? Where do the Donks find people stupid enough to actually vote for wing-nuts like Jefferson, Cynthia McKinney and John Murtha?
FBI Search of Jefferson’s Office
Constitutional, Judge Rules
- (WASHINGTON POST)—Tuesday, July 11, 2006
A federal judge in Washington ruled yesterday that the unprecedented FBI raid on Rep. William J. Jefferson’s Capitol Hill office was constitutional, saying the government “demonstrated a compelling need to conduct the search” in the ongoing public corruption probe.
U.S. District Judge Thomas F. Hogan, in an anxiously awaited 28-page opinion, said politicians were not above the law, and he rejected arguments from the Louisiana Democrat that the search violated the Constitution’s “speech or debate” clause, which protects speech and documents related to legislative activity.
“Congressman Jefferson’s interpretation of the Speech or Debate privilege would have the effect of converting every congressional office into a taxpayer-subsidized sanctuary for crime,” Hogan wrote, rejecting the request to return the seized materials.
Since March 2005, the FBI has been investigating allegations that Jefferson took hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes in exchange for using his congressional influence to promote high-tech business ventures in Nigeria, Ghana and Cameroon.
Robert P. Trout, Jefferson’s lawyer, vowed to appeal the ruling. He said he also planned to request a stay to keep the seized documents under seal pending appeal. If granted, the stay could further delay FBI investigators, who have been waiting to examine the potential evidence in the 15-month probe.
“The raid on Congressman Jefferson’s office was unprecedented, unnecessary and unconstitutional,” Trout said in a statement, adding that “we respectfully disagree” with the judge’s ruling. A Justice Department official hailed the ruling but said the department “will wait for the court’s decision on the stay before accessing the documents.”
Jefferson, 59, has repeatedly denied wrongdoing and has not been charged. About 15 FBI agents raided the office at the Rayburn House Office Building the night of May 20 and spent 18 hours sifting through documents and copying computer hard drives.

Democrats have pulled every trick in the book to get even with Tom DeLay for redistricting Texas right out from under them. They slandered him, they subpoened him, they indicted him, they have him on trial (on bogus charges), they won’t let him withdraw from the race for his seat in Texas even though he has moved to Viriginia. Sooner or later the other shoe had to fall. In this case, it might be a Hammer Shoe.
I’m getting the feeling from what I read and interiews with Delay that the man is getting slightly peeved at Democrats. You might say he appears to be righteously pissed in a huge way. Personally, I don’t blame the man. He tried to give the Donks what they wanted by resigning from Congress and saying he wouldn’t run for another term even though Republican voters in his district put him back on the ballot for the Fall election.
That wasn’t enough for the Cheatin’ Donks. They don’t want anyone on the Republican ticket in that district in November. At least no one living in Texas. They want it all to themselves. Typical Donk behavior. Steal the election by any means necessary. Unfortunately, if they keep this up DeLay will probably give them what they wish for - a run for their money. This will be a fun race to watch in the Fall. Get out yer popcorn and stay tuned ...
Former U.S. Rep. Tom DeLay suggested Friday that he may not be ready for retirement just yet, a day after a federal judge ruled that his name must remain on the November ballot even though he resigned from Congress.
DeLay, who came home to Sugar Land for a previously scheduled event, also criticized U.S. District Judge Sam Sparks’ ruling that the former House majority leader’s name had to remain on the ballot.
“For this guy to say he can’t tell where I’m going to be on Election Day, and that I am forced to be on the ballot, well, they may get exactly what they want,” DeLay told supporters to raucous applause. Sparks is a Democrat appointed by Republican former President George Bush.
Later, reporters asked Delay if he now planned to run. He didn’t say no. “We have to wait and see what the 5th Circuit does on appeal,” he said. The Texas Republican Party appealed to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans immediately after Sparks’ ruling Thursday in Austin. Attorney Jim Bopp said he hoped to have a decision from the higher court this month, allowing the GOP to nominate a new candidate.
DeLay, who is awaiting trial on Texas charges of money laundering and conspiracy in a campaign finance case, won the Republican primary in March but resigned from Congress on June 9 and said he has moved to Virginia. He still owns - and his wife, Christine, still lives in - his Sugar Land house, where DeLay also spends time, the Democrats pointed out.
Democrats want to keep his name and his legal troubles on the minds of voters as Democrat Nick Lampson tries to capture DeLay’s 22nd congressional district seat in suburban Houston. The party sued to keep the GOP from removing DeLay’s name from the ballot. Republicans want to name a replacement nominee, and several prominent Houston area politicians are vying for the spot.
The U.S. Constitution states a member of Congress on Election Day must be an inhabitant of the state where his district is located. Sparks said he was not convinced that DeLay would not return to Texas.

The Russkis finally got their man. The Chechen terrorist responsible for the killing of over 300 schoolchildren in Beslan back in 2004 as well as the Moscow Theater tradegy in 2002 is down. One more asshat takes a dirt nap. Add his name to Zarqawi on the list of Dirtbags Demoted By Death. All we need now is to take out Osama Bin Lawdy-Lawdy and Mullah ("Cyclops") Omar and we’ll have a good start.
Then we need to find a way for several thousand radical Imam’s around the world to suddenly die of “natural causes” and we’re almost home. The final step will involve a mysterious earthquake that wipes Iran off the map, a disastrous, unavoidable “meteor” hitting Pyongyang out of a clear blue sky and a sudden spread of Black Plague in Gaza. Oh, almost forgot ... a major earthquake rips off western California from San Francisco to Los Angeles and 90% of American weirdness slides into the Pacifist Ocean (renamed in honor of the anti-war activists who will die in the earthquake).
Well .... I can dream can’t I ...? 
Chechen warlord Shamil Basayev, responsible for modern Russia’s worst terrorist attacks, was killed Monday when a dynamite-laden truck exploded in his convoy, Russian officials said. Federal Security Service head Nikolai Patrushev told President Vladimir Putin that Basayev had been killed overnight in a special operation conducted by Russian forces in Ingushetia, the area of southern Russia that borders Chechnya. Patrushev’s meeting with Putin was shown on Russian state television.
Basayev, 41, was behind some of Russia’s worst terror attacks, including the seizure of a Moscow theater in 2002 in which dozens of hostages and militants died, the 2004 school hostage taking in Beslan that killed 331, and the seizure of about 1,000 hostages at a hospital in Budyonnovsk that killed about 100.
Patrushev gave no details of Basayev’s death in his televised remarks, but an Ingush regional Interior Ministry official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media, said he had been killed while accompanying a truck filled with 220 pounds of dynamite that blew up in the Ingush village of Ekazhevo early Monday.
Basayev was among four militants killed in the blast. The Kavkaz-Center Web site, which is considered a voice for Basayev, confirmed that he died “as a martyr.” Citing a member of the rebel parliament, Abu Umar, it said Basayev had died in an accidental explosion of a truck Monday. “There was no special operation. Shamil and other brothers of ours became martyrs by the will of Allah,” he said. The site confirmed three other rebels had been killed in the blast.
The Interfax news agency quoted Ingush Deputy Prime Minister Bashir Aushev as saying that Basayev’s body had been identified “through some of the fragments, including his head.” Patrushev told Putin that the Chechen rebels had hoped to “put political pressure on the Russian leadership” during the Group of Eight summit later this week, which Putin is chairing.
Patrushev said the operation to eliminate Basayev, in which many other rebels were killed, was thanks to intelligence operations abroad, “especially in those countries where arms were collected. This is deserved retribution for our children in Beslan, for Budyonnovsk, for all the terrorist attacks that they committed in Moscow and in other regions of the Russian Federation including Ingushetia and the Chechen Republic,” Putin said, adding that everyone who took part in the operation should be presented with state medals.
The attack on the Beslan school shocked Russia and divided the rebel movement, since civilians, including women and children, were taken hostage. Basayev was the most notorious of the Chechen warlords, eluding Russian forces for years despite Kremlin vows to hunt him down and an offer of $10 million and plastic surgery to anyone providing information leading to his death. His grim, decade-long record of killing both civilians and soldiers reflected fanatical determination—a ferocity Russia has said was bolstered by help from international terrorist networks such as al-Qaida. Washington declared Basayev a terrorist and threat to the United States.

The Conservative won the election by a narrow margin. The Liberal cried foul and demanded a recount. Cries of fraud and foul play are coming from both sides. The courts will have to decide who won the election.
Sound familiar? No, it’s not November, 2000 in America all over again. This time the greased pig contest is South Of The Border, down Mehico way. I blame Al Gore for this fiasco. He started all this challenge and recount crap six years ago because Liberals can’t stand to lose. They feel they are “entitled” to win public office and if the sheeple won’t vote for them then there must be something wrong with the voters or else their opponent cheated.
This will probably turn out to be another long, drawn-out process with enough dangling chads to keep everyone entertained for months. It will also more than likely be a preview of the 2008 elections here in America if the Lunatic Fringe here doesn’t hurry up and destroy the Democratic Party. Let’s hope our Liberals keep racheting up the insanity or else, like Mexico, we’ll be spending one day to vote and four years to count and recount. Aye, Caramba!
MEXICO CITY—Mexico’s leading leftist presidential candidate asked the country’s top electoral court late Sunday to order a ballot-by-ballot recount of last week’s election, as his party turned over nine boxes of evidence of alleged fraud and dirty campaign practices.
The 900-page claim alleged that some polling places had more votes than registered voters, the ruling party funneled government money to conservative Felipe Calderon’s campaign and exceeded spending limits, and a software program was used to skew initial vote-count reports.
“We have proof that basic rules were flagrantly violated,” said Ricardo Monreal, a representative for Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who lost the July 2 election to Calderon by a razor-thin margin. Mexico’s Federal Electoral Court will review the case, which includes videos, campaign propaganda and electoral documents. The court has until Sept. 6 to declare a winner.
The legal challenge came a day after Lopez Obrador, a former Mexico City mayor, held a mammoth rally in Mexico City’s historic center and called on his followers to help overturn Calderon’s narrow victory. Lopez Obrador isn’t seeking to annul the election, but to force authorities to conduct a manual recount of all 41 million ballots.
“This was a very irregular election and we are asking that they count vote by vote to legitimize the president elect,” Gerardo Fernandez, a spokesman for Lopez Obrador’s Democratic Revolution Party, said outside the tribunal Sunday night as he waited for lawyers to arrive. “We won’t recognize Calderon’s triumph unless they legitimize the election,” he said.
Election officials said Thursday that Felipe Calderon beat Lopez Obrador by less than 244,000 votes in the July 2 election—or a margin of just 0.6 percent. But Lopez Obrador contends some of his votes weren’t counted or were voided without reason. He has millions of devoted followers who believe only he can help Mexico’s poor and downtrodden, and he has long used street protests to pressure the government and courts.
Lopez Obrador’s claims also include allegations that President Vicente Fox used government funds to support Calderon, the candidate of Fox’s conservative National Action Party. Fox has denied interfering in the elections, and election monitors from the European Union said they found no irregularities in the vote count.
But fraud allegations strike a sensitive nerve with many Mexicans. They question whether Mexico has overcome decades of institutional corruption and fraud that long favored the ruling party—the Institutional Revolutionary Party for 71 years until it lost the presidency to Fox in 2000. Lopez Obrador has sought to stoke those fears. On Saturday, he accused the respected Federal Electoral Institute, held up as an example to emerging democracies around the world, of being a “pawn of the party of the right.”
Over 100,000 supporters rallying in the capital’s main plaza Saturday chanted “Vote by vote!” Turning to his charges that Fox unfairly aided Calderon, Lopez Obrador said the popular president “dedicated himself to attacking us and ended up being a complete traitor of democracy.” Representatives for Fox and Calderon were not immediately available to comment. Fox has stayed out of the public eye for two weeks in an effort to avoid accusations that he was meddling in the debate.

Rick McKee - The Augusta Chronicle (GA)
As you may know by now, the high courts in both New York and Georgia produced a major setback to the homosexual quest for “gay marriage” laws in those states. Both courts said that marriage is between a man and a woman. Period. Always has been, always will be. To me that is just common sense and the only real surprise is that the liberals in New York feel the same way as the conservatives in Georgia. Now there’s an odd couple.
I really think it’s time to put this silliness behind us. If homosexuals want to live together, I could care less. What they do is their business. I think it’s abnormal but that’s just my opinion. However you may stand on the issue of homosexuality, it’s important to remember that what’s going on here has nothing to do with discrimination or a violation of anyone’s “civil rights” - which is how the Left tries to paint it. Obfuscation by any other name would still smell as bad.
This becomes evident when you actually listen to the homosexual arguments for “gay marriage”. The editorial below from the Los Angeles Times (where else?) is a case in point. I came across it while researching this story and, try as hard as I can, I just cannot seem to come to grips with the thinking behind the author’s obvious anger.
How on Earth can anyone refer to rulings like this as moving “in the opposite direction of history and justice”, “adding insult to injury”, “odiously racist” and “challenge to heterosexual monopoly”? That last one makes my brain hurt. Even worse is the last paragraph where racism is brought into the argument in a comparison to this decision that defies reason. Homosexuals playing the race card? You have to be really desparate to prove your point when you get that far out in left field.
The final argument below about “someday we’ll look back on the anti-gay-marriage hysteria with the same revulsion” is almost too much to bear. What our writer out in California fails to realize is that it’s not “hysteria” ... it’s hysterical. The attitude and arguments presented below are merely laughable, to say the least.
Setback For Marriage Justice
The highest courts of New York and Georgia last week moved in the opposite direction of history and justice on same-sex marriage. By a 4-2 vote, the New York Court of Appeals ruled Thursday that the state Legislature’s limitation of marriage to heterosexual couples was a “long-accepted restriction” not based solely on “ignorance and prejudice against homosexuals.”
Adding insult to injury, an opinion signed by three of the judges in the majority ruled that it was rational for the Legislature to ban same-sex marriage in the interests of protecting children. Noting that “an important function of marriage is to create more stability and permanence in the relationships that cause children to be born,” Judge Robert S. Smith wrote that the state could “offer an inducement — in the form of marriage and its attendant benefits — to opposite-sex couples who make a solemn, long-term commitment to each other.” Never mind that childless heterosexual couples also receive legal benefits from civil marriage — or that many gay couples are raising children.
The Georgia Supreme Court decision, also handed down Thursday, was narrower but still disappointing. The court rejected technical objections to a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage that was approved by state voters in 2004. Neither of these decisions is binding on the courts of other states, any more than was the famous 2003 ruling by Massachusetts’ high court that gay marriage couldn’t be prohibited. So there’s still hope that California’s Supreme Court will take a more enlightened view of the issue when it next hears a challenge to heterosexual monopoly on civil marriage. Advocates of same-sex marriage have turned to the state courts since Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s ill-advised veto of a same-sex-marriage bill last year, but hopefully the Legislature will keep trying.
Gay-rights activists shouldn’t underestimate the challenge ahead. In Georgia, the ban on same-sex marriages upheld last week passed with 76% of the vote. Meanwhile, even politicians who support gay rights consider it political suicide to mention the M-word. And conservatives continue to score points with the fallacious argument that legalizing same-sex marriage would make heterosexual marriage less attractive or, even more absurdly, damage the religious sacrament of matrimony. It took the Supreme Court until 1967 — 1967! — to strike down odiously racist anti-miscegenation laws. Someday we’ll look back on the anti-gay-marriage hysteria with the same revulsion. Until then, with a high court seemingly disinclined to address marriage, states such as California should take the lead.

Fifty years ago, in the November 1956 issue of Scientific American magazine, IBM announced a new computer peripheral ... the hard drive. IBM called it the RAMAC drive (Random Access Memory Accounting) and it was capable of storing a whopping FIVE MEGABYTES (5MB) of data.
Now, they say innovation drives technology (or something like that) but in this case it’s probably true that pornography drives technology - because everyone knows 5MB will only hold a small portion of the average web surfer’s library of nekkid women (or nekkid men, depending on your preferences). Thanks to IBM we have the hard drive. Thanks to a gazillion porn sites we have terabyte sized drives today. Ain’t science lovely ...

A nice, quiet Sunday here in Dayton, Ohio. I’m too lazy to surf the net for articles. So I’ve broken out my file box of quotations.
Never be entirely idle; but either be reading, or writing, or praying, or meditating. or endeavoring something for the public good.
- Thomas a’ Kempis
These quotes come from my reading. I read a lot and I keep 3x5 cards handy to jot down quotes for later use. Like today.
All silencing of discussion is an assumption of infallibility.
-J. S, Mill, On Liberty
And what is political correctness if not the attempt to silence any opposition? Ditto for hate speech laws.
It is said ... that the characteristic of a fool is this: he readily believes evil of everyone, and as readily believes all good of himself.
- Dame Prudence, The Tale of Melibus from the Canterbury Tales
Again, this sounds a lot like what the Left has devolved to. They take it to the extreme that all humanity (except themselves) are evil and are destroying the planet with greenhouse gases, drilling for oil, etc.

Over the years, I’ve watched Michael Jackson metamorphose from a cute black kid to a skinny white guy. Now he wants to become Irish ... so he can meet leprechauns. I. Am. Speechless.
(FF.CO.UK) - 2006-07-05 12:50:04
Michael Jackson wants to move to Ireland because he wants to meet leprechauns. The eccentric star, who has been residing in Bahrain since being acquitted of child sex charges last year, reportedly arrived in County Cork last week to search for a new home.
Jackson is said to be hoping to move him and his three children, Prince Michael, nine, Paris, eight, and Prince Michael II, four, into a Celtic castle in the scenic country.
According to Californian psychic Randa Starr, the ‘Billie Jean’ singer has always been interested in Ireland because he is fascinated by fairies and leprechauns - a type of treasure hording elf associated with Irish mythology.
Starr said: “Michael is a very spiritual person and considered a move to Ireland years ago. It doesn’t surprise me that he is attracted to Ireland again. He once thought of it as a spiritual place for his rebirth. He has a very keen interest in fairies, myths and leprechauns which fit in with that.”
Jackson’s spokeswoman has confirmed he is in Ireland “on personal business” but has so far refused to comment on whether he is house-hunting.
