Those Courageous Democrats!

Remind me again why I should feel hopeful that Democrats are interested in restoring the rule of law.

I have firm confirmation that Nancy Pelosi is urging the Judiciary committee NOT to go forward with contempt against Rove.

Congressman John Conyers and the Judiciary staff are battling for it but this has become an infight among dems.

Time to burn up the phone lines.

Click though and raise hell.

Just Burn It Down, Baby!

Tanta over at Calculated Risk writes about an IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT in the unfolding housing and credit market crisis:

I have no evidence that lenders are out torching homes instead of foreclosing on them, but then again I bet I could get an unnamed source to opine that it's possibly a dangerous trend...

I can arrange that.

Hell, I'll go farther, and assert categorically, without a shred of evidence, and pseudonymously to boot, that it's happening now, it's a huge problem, and it's only going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

It doesn't have to be true. That's the beauty of it. It's truthy in a good way. Spread the word.

They Can't Get No Satisfaction

Gavin M at Sadly, No! knocks it out of the park. Make sure you read far enough in that you get to the sentence that begins...

I'll bet you can hear me howling with laughter from all the way out here in outer Redneckistan, where I'm traveling on business.

Update: found in the comments on that thread. I have no choice now but to add the "they did what" tag to this post.
