Let The Flip Flopping Begin

Now that the Republican Washington elite is all in a twitter about possible charges against certain higher-ups in the White House in the CIA leak case, the spin is beginning. It is pretty well certain that the least of the charges against some of these higher-ups (read Rove, Libby and possibly Cheney)will be perjury. But I guess perjury is only a crime when it is about oral sex in the oval office. And of course said perjury must have been committed by a Democrat. Take for instance Senator Kay Baily Hutchison (R-TX) and her statement this past Sunday on "Face The Nation" "if there is going to be an indictment that says something happened, that it is an indictment on a crime and not some perjury technicality where they couldn't indict on the crime and so they go to something just to show that their two years of investigation was not a waste of time and taxpayer dollars." In fact she even went so far as comparing it to the case of Martha Stewart and her stock sale, "where they couldn't find a crime and they indict on something that she said about something that wasn't a crime." How very consistent of Ms. Kay, seeing as how she had this to say regarding a certain President who performed or received (who knows and who cares?) a certain sexual pleasure in the oval office. "The reason that I voted to remove him from office is because I think the overridding issue here is that truth will remain the standard for perjury and obstruction of justice in our criminal justice system and it must not be gray. It must not be muddy." She also went on to place into the the official record this little gem in oh such solemn tones: "If only the President had followed the simple, high moral principle handed to us by our Nation's first leader as a child and had said early in this episode `I cannot tell a lie,' we would not be here today. We would not be sitting in judgment of a President. We would not be invoking those provisions of the Constitution that have only been applied once before in our Nation's history. Cut the crap Kay your just as big a hypocrite as the rest of your "family values" Republicans. What will your excuse be for insider trader Bill Frist or your money launderer Tom Delay? Oh I know! Bill just happened to forget his stock was in a blind trust......just a simple slip of the mind. And as for Tommy well gee wiz people how was HE supposed to know where the money would end up? After all being Majority Leader is hard work and he can't be expected to know EVERYTHING! Besides the prosecutor is nothing but a renegade Democrat gone wild and hey don't forget that there judge guy he's a Democrat too!!!
