This spring I finally realized I don't bear responsibility for fixing every idiot I come across. My old boss, upon me giving him an extensive printout of opinions FROM HIS SIDE stating the the ABC "docudrama" was falsely biased against Clinton, declared he didn't even know who these people (famous republican pundits) were.  

Hence, the law.

It's a self-correcting organism that has mutated out of control.  If one part of the Cult stumbles, it's either repaired or excised...that's why you see Arlen Specter with a (D) on Fox Noise when he's going after Gonzo.  One part of the cult will correct any other malfunctioning part, whether or not it's Fox, the White House, congressional Republicans, right-wing talk radio, wingnut bloggers, the beltway pundits or what have you.

When one gets out of line, the other parts "fix" the problem.  Bush on immigration.  GOP Senators on getting out or Iraq.  Rush on Oxycontin.  Wingnut mea culpas on the invasion.  The rest of them pressure the other parts to present a united front.

They know like organs in the body, too many simultaneous failures leads to a systemic crash and death for the whole body.  They know if one of them goes down, ALL of them go down.

So they all support each other.  You get all the Republicans on the committee voting against contempt.  I guarantee you when the larger vote is held, it will be along direct party lines, for the same reason.

To bring this mess down, we need something that hits all parts of the Cult organism at once so that the other parts are reeling before they can recover.  We need critical mass, the political version of the ebola virus.

I've been hoping Iraq would be it, but so far the Dems are just too scared to do anything.  Gonzo too appears to lack the heft...who's going to prosecute perjury and contempt charges against him?

So how do we kill this cancer?  They only way is to find something the Democrats and the people can latch onto and help us take the bastards down at once.

So far, we lack that issue.

Given the elephant's disgust, should be very interesting.

Well, "You can't vote for war and disown the results"
