Beat him with a wet firehose and make him confess.

"You are free to use any methods necessary...but I want (him) alive. NO DISINTEGRATIONS."

"He will not be permanently damaged."

[tiredoflaundry]

In which case he gets to be frogmarched

I believe he got his security clearance knocked down a month or so ago over this propensity.

Link?

Does this suprise anyone? November 6, 2003 the vaulted senator made a bad and illegal move.

Hehehehe! This will be interesting...

Thanks for the ping or I'd have surely missed this today.

I think the Barrett Report should prove to be interesting. Don't be surprised if it does indeed see the light of day.

[StarFan]

I guess in lieu of condolences Byrd is demanding an investigation, so says foxnews.

[StarFan]

Let's hope the rumor becomes fact!

The law is not in place to make a Member of Congress subject to the laws of the land.

While it seems de facto anymore, I am pretty sure that is not the case for treason in the books.

Hmmm, could the democrat party have a culture of treason problem???

It seems to be more of a communicable disease, one that democrats are at high risk of succumbing to. There appears to be no reliable cure short of hanging.

Fortunately, most all common sense folks have powerful anti-bodies that block the debilitating affliction.

I kept asking, sarcastically, where's Senator Byrd? He wasn't seen or heard during the mining crisis. Finally today, Byrd makes a noise:

Byrd wants open hearings into Sago Mine explosion

Associated Press
CHARLESTON, W.Va. - Officials from the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration will be called before a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing before the end of the month to testify about the agency's response to the Sago Mine disaster, West Virginia Sen. Robert C. Byrd said Monday.

"The families of the Sago miners deserve to know what happened in that mine. Just as importantly, miners and their families across this country want to know that steps are being taken to prevent others from ever experiencing such pain," Byrd said in a statement released by his office.
Spokesman Tom Gavin said Byrd wants to know why it took so long to get a backup rescue team on the ground after an initial team arrived at the mine, and why MSHA was apparently not more involved in the immediate hours after the explosion.


Last week, 12 miners died following an explosion at the International Coal Group Inc.'s Sago Mine near Tallmansville. The surviving miner, Randal McCloy Jr., remains hospitalized in Morgantown.
Byrd, the top Democrat on the Senate Appropriations Committee, is working with Sens. Tom Harkin of Iowa, and Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, to set a date for the hearings, Gavin said.


Specter is chairman of the committee's Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education and Related Agencies, which has jurisdiction over MSHA. Harkin is the top Democrat on the subcommittee.
Byrd also would support MSHA holding public hearings as it investigates the mine disaster, Gavin said.
The senator believes "that people should have a chance to hear for themselves what the investigation results are," he said."

Oh what fun if Rockefeller is implicated in the Risen/NSA link

[K-oneTexas]

Last use --- a private in WW II (I think). Congress could not stomach calling one of their own on the carpet.

The appeasement party.

Democrats' Culture of Corruption.

Absolutely nothing will happen to this DemonRAT traitor, unlike the unforgivable sins committed by "Party of Corruption" Trent Lott and Tom DeLay.

I didn't know that.Do you remember where you saw that?
