- scabbers, on 10/10/2007, -1/+76Bush and Cheney are in the garage as we speak, welding "executive privilege" armour plating to an old bus.
- obliviousfool, on 10/10/2007, -0/+62Rove didn't comply with the e-mail subpoena, it's hard to believe he'll comply with this one.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+53About. *****. Time.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+46I would have to say in this case breaking is quite appropriate
- littlebylittle, on 10/10/2007, -12/+50I never know if "Breaking" s/b used in a headline. Some Diggers seem to like it, some don't.
- backoff34, on 10/10/2007, -0/+36I hope heads will roll.
- ifuckurmouth, on 10/10/2007, -1/+37He'll never testify. Bush will extend executive privilege to prevent him from ever taking the stand (not that he wants to testify about his crony's bad behavior anyhow). And even if he was somehow found in contempt of Congress, Bush will pardon him. This is a symbolic move, not one that will land that ***** in jail where he belongs.
- nodlezfodlez, on 10/10/2007, -0/+32Yay for Leahy, representin' teh Vermonts.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+26I see two problems with that.
#1 - Hes already bred so his evil genes have already been passed on
#2 - He has no balls, he is a gutless coward who chickened out of Vietnam but now thinks he has the right to send people who didn't do everything they could to wriggle out of fighting for their country into a non-threatening foreign nation and hold an illegal war to satisfy his personal fantasies of revenge and oil money! - yogione, on 10/10/2007, -1/+27More Bush Crime family mafia tactics. It also just came out today that Pat Tillman was shot three times in the head at close range, a fact his mother has been trying to get out for quite some time now. www.firedoglake.com/2007/07/26/late-nite-fdl-a-whole-new-level-of-horror/
Just days before he was to meet with Noam Chomsky to share his beliefs about the Iraq war.
When a Mafia family hits someone just before they are about to squeal, the coverup has to be thorough. Seeing a show the Bush family is a mafia crime family, is makes perfect sense. - Scarfy, on 10/10/2007, -3/+26Much more appropriate than, let's say, BREAKING: COW ON A BEACH.
- tb0n3r, on 10/10/2007, -2/+23Very rarely is "breaking" ever really that accurate on Digg. Many of the breaking stories we see that hit the front page are at least 4 hours old. This story, for instance, took 13 hours to hit the front page.
- m0tbaillie, on 10/10/2007, -1/+22I wanna see ***** on the block, too. These people need to be made an example of; this kind of philandering and back-door ***** needs to end with this Administration. Don't let these ***** set a precedent.
- overtoke, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18This entire situation is about voter fraud, folks.
- DannyAndNina, on 10/10/2007, -1/+17Given Rove's past reticence and Gonzalez's ability to get away without saying ANYTHING, it's hard to imagine something coming of a Rove subpoena.
- yogione, on 10/10/2007, -1/+16Also it came out today how Pat Tillman was shot in the head three times at close range
www.firedoglake.com/2007/07/26/late-nite-fdl-a-whole-new-level-of-horror
Just a few days before he was going to meet with Noam Chomsky to discuss his opinions about the war.
Typical Bush Mafia crime family tactics. If you want to understand Bush, you must think in terms of a mafia family crime network. That's what they are. - cavemang, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15Don't forget Libby. If Rove or anyone else gets in trouble, Bush can just commute their punishments. Time for Congress to get some f-ing balls and impeach!
- cloudyprison, on 10/10/2007, -2/+16GIVE ME DIGGS: Rove Subpoenaed
- casek, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14i'm sure bush has already jumped on a new executive order to declare himself, rove, cheney, and the ilk
invulnerable to anything constitutional - avasol, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13You know what you sound like? "Hahahaha I continue to support my Prez 'cause he be cool 'n stuff and I like to suck his warty ***** even tho he continuez to rape the world and propell America into despotizm and good luck trying to get him to change anything cuz I fully support him being an anal arsewipe son of a whore who couldn't think for myself if brainz were a commodity and freely available".
Now I feel better. - NateFishler, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12WHAT'S HIS NAME? M.C. ROVE!
- BeefBaron, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE'D!
/Strongbad - darkism, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11He's just going to ignore it like the rest of those lousy crooks.
- mephitix, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Yeah, and who was it that signed the No Child Left Behind Act? Oh, maybe it was the same guy who not only f*cked up education -- he f*cked up the rest of the world.
- haydesigner, on 10/10/2007, -5/+15But I am glad that the OP (err... original poster) saved him/herself those precious seconds by typing "s/b" instead of "should be" because *everybody* knows what that means.
- JohnnyXmas, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12TUTORIAL: HOW TO USE "BREAKING" IN A DIGG ARTICLE TITLE By JohnnyXmas:
"BREAKING" Means the event is happening AS THE STORY IS WRITTEN, and many times means all the facts are not yet known. Just because a news story has not been posted on Digg yet does not mean it is "breaking." Also, given that most people won't see the story until it hits Digg's front page, its usually not breaking by that point, anyway.
Example: There was an explosion in a Russian city yesterday afternoon. Bloggers started posting pictures and videos of it before anyone really even knew what it was. Diggers posted links to those blogs as "breaking" news. This was immediately appropriate, but those stories might not hit the front page until today (if ever), and now we know all of the facts of the situation, and the explosion / aftermath is no longer occurring. This makes it no longer "breaking." People will still see the word in the article title, think it is something immediately serious, then be disappointed and pissed off when they find out it is not. The only place where "breaking" *might* work is in a news story involving a 3-day hostage situation, or something like that, where the situation constantly changes, and people are fed facts in real time.
In summary: "BREAKING" will so rarely be appropriate that you should JUST NOT USE IT ON DIGG. I'd propose a filter to just remove the word from the beginning of titles as they're posted, but clearly no one at Digg listens to our suggestions anyway (*cough*newcommentsystem*cough*). - Delphium226, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10And look at all the time the repugs have had to fix the education system, no, instead they spent all our money not catching Bin Laden.
Talk about drinking koolaid? You've been smoking the sh1t. - the6thReplicant, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10So your assumption is that they are going after Rove ONLY for political reasons, and not for criminal investigations? I am happy to admit that there is quite a lot of partisanship here but that only oils the wheels of progress. But to say it the only reason is, well, burying your head in the sand.
More Karl Roves will not make America a better place to live, or to make it safer. He does nothing but push emotional buttons and treat the Republicans like a type of canned soup that needs to be marketed. Hey, lets give credit where it is due, it worked, but at a cost. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10At least it wasn't AMAZING!!
- casek, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11i wish that some people would stop pretending to be republicans and stop pretending to be patriots.
there is no difference between neo conservatives and democrats. none. zero. the two parties are
a false choice.
you neo cons need to come out of the closet and realize that you are living the marxist way.
don't believe me? go read the communist manifesto.
thanks,
a true conservative - djcgmcse, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Tell Bush to stop BREAKING *****! Maybe we'll stop.
- FredoBerfil, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10As in: "The Constitution is breaking."
- masgrada, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Really?! *runs to library*
- ccheath, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7You're probably right, but if that happens then Bush will get impeached and (depending on the evidence) convicted and removed from office.
They only need two more sponsors of HR333 to go ahead with the impeachment of Cheney
and DID YOU KNOW that congress's powers are at it's greatest when investigating (impeachment charges against) the executive? - Elranzer, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6People like Veretax, morons who think of Republicans and Democrats as "sports teams" and don't really know jack ***** about politics or issues, are what's ruining this country.
- mephitix, on 10/10/2007, -7/+13Why the hell is everyone whining about the "BREAKING". Seriously, STFU. Digg is a site where not everything gets to the front page instantly. Granted, there are some stories that don't deserve 'breaking', but there are stories like this that do, and people need to realize that it truly is breaking so they can digg it up fast and get it to the front page ASAP. So stop whining about "Breaking" being spam. If you don't like it, don't digg it. The mere fact you're commenting so much on it is starting to look like spam.
- lnf69, on 10/10/2007, -3/+9How the ***** do you know how I felt 12 years ago?
Two wrongs never make a etc..
And once again comparing blow jobs to a)spying on fellow citizens, b)causing and hiding voting fraud, c)having American troops die because of lies and still knowing they are lies.
Clinton was wrong, but there are always degrees of wrong in this world. You cannot intelligently compare the wrongs of Clinton with the wrongs of Bush. It's like comparing Matchbox cars with real life cars. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Breaking on CNN: Pat Tillman's Medical examiner think he was shot form less than 10 yards away. Three times in the head.
- andrgo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Aww poor Repuhblicun tool, you love your corrupt hypocrite leaders so much.
- Gadren, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7I swear, the Senate needs to go Caesar on this administration. They should just all walk up to the White House with daggers, since nothing else is going to get Bush's attention.
- joebob, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6It's part of Bush's new plan to fix education. For the last few years he's been educating an entire generation of people personally on how our system of government is broken and pointing out each and every crack... by using it.
- Waiting2awake, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7 Egoist, There wasn't an uproar because he did it at the beginning of his term - as all presidents do, as this one did as well. However, and you keep forgetting this part for some reason, Bush fired these ones during his term. Whats the difference you say? Obstruction of Justice it would appear(If we could get anyone to answer question under oath - wonder why that doesn't happen Hmm?) .
Please stop stating the same talking-points that have been shown to be incorrect, talk about wasting time. - Waiting2awake, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6 Still not listening huh? Not when they are investigating a case that he may be involved in - or else that is obstruction of justice.
Please, this isn't a partisan or political issue here it is a matter of checks and balances. - Vladamir, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6*they're
Sorry! Had to... - Tanishh, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Firing federal attorneys at the beginning of one's term is considered normal and happens just about every time. Firing a good number of them in the middle of one's term after they apparently refused to illegally and unethically try to find evidence/charges against Bush's opponents is illegal.
- lhnz, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Why are you trying to point out your algorithm didn't work?!!
- Waiting2awake, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5the legal battle? What legal battle? The WH is just refusing to adhere to the law - and those that are supposed to make them, the Justice department - are on their payroll...
The only battle is the one trying to get the message through the last 20%'rs so that these criminals can be brought to justice without having to fight them to get to Bush and the like. - Boognish, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5good! what a douche bag...
- ploximeth, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4THE WORLD IS FALLING ALL AROUND US
at least these idiots seem to be falling out of control first. :) - BritSwedeGuy, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5About fracking time!
Expect the Constitution to be thoroughly raped by Bush and his henchmen before this is over though. -
