FORGET NOVAK; BUSH REALLY COULD SOLVE ALL THE REPUBLICAN CORRUPTION SCANDALS WITH ONE HONEST SPEECH

If the Grand Wizard of the Republican Party Ku Klux Klan were to go on a killing spree and shoot every Democrat in the House and Senate and then Bush decided to pardon him, there would be nothing anyone could do about it. A presidential pardon is absolute, unquestionable and non-appealable. And I think that's more Republicrooks are not ratting out their colleagues in crime. So many-- from all the different unrelated scandals swamping Bush's corrupt party-- know if they just hold their tongues they're gonna get a pardon (unless Bush gets impeached in 2007).

I noticed a cat fight developing today over on the extreme right with Bob Novak claiming that Bush "knows who the source [of the treasonous Plame leak] is". Today Scotty McClellen stopped a teensy weensy step short of calling the Prince of Darkness a lying sack of shit. Entertaining but there's one way to clear up all these Republican scandals real fast.

Bush has the worst tv ratings for his speeches of any president ever. (NPR couldn't find one Republican senator who had bothered to listen to Bush's latest "speech" on Iraq this week-- and I heard them interview almost a dozen senators who admitted they hadn't and a couple you copped to not listening to it "off the record." Well I bet my idea will make Bush's tv ratings go thru the roof. He should announce a press conference for next week and announce to the nation that any congressman or any member of the Executive Branch who is lying about any of the ongoing criminal investigations-- as Karl Rove is, as Bob Ney is, as Duncan Hunter is, as Conrad Burns is, as Tom DeLay is, as Denny Hastert is, as Katherine Harris is, as Irving "Scooter" Libby is, and on and on-- will forfeit any chance of a presidential pardon if they don't start genuine cooperation within 24 hours. If Bush doesn't get a clean bill of health immediately from a non-partisan Special Prosecutor he appoints to oversee this, the person in question becomes ineligible for a pardon. (I mean he is the chief law enforcement officer of the country in a way isn't he? Shouldn't he be trying to solve these cases instead of helping to cover them up?
