White House Convenes Right-Wing Blogger Propaganda Conference Call
By SilentPatriot Thursday Jul 26, 2007 8:01pmOnce again Bush is hoping to "catapult the propaganda":
At the urging of top conservative bloggers, the White House set up a Friday morning conference call to promote its message on the subject of executive privilege, RAW STORY has found.
"The White House hosted a blogger conference call to discuss the issues surrounding the Bush administration's use of executive privilege in the probe of the firings of eight federal prosecutors," wrote Ed Morrissey, who produces the blog Captains Quarters. "The White House arranged the call based on a recommendation by this blog, in order to familiarize the blogosphere with the legal and political arguments on which the administration will rely to prevail in the upcoming fight regarding the contempt citations Congress seems likely to approve."
I'm very curious to know who else was in on this conference call. I'm equally as curious to know if the hate-site-sponsoring Michelle Malkin was on the line. Or if the al-Qaeda-plot-supporting Charles Johnson was there, too. Perhaps in attendance were those who helped leak onto the internets blueprints for nuclear weapons (in Arabic, no less.)
Maybe BillO -- otherwise known as the Non-Partisan "Aribter of Upstanding Political Discourse" -- will launch a full-scale outrage campaign and demand answers & accountability. Stay tuned...

They are in such deep sh*t they're going to have to hand out shovels with 20-foot long handles to those bloggers.
Treason in the Bush family.

After all, Bush is al-Qaeda's biggest fan.
Darth Cheney to get new powerplant for his ice cold cyberheart. No one cares what the repugs do anymore.
You know we have an easy victory when they circle the wagons. Over running them will make a nice victory and scalping will be GLORIOUS!
A fine use of taxpayers' dollars - to tell their sycophantic Pravdans how to spread the message. These abominations look and act more like the Communist Party every day. Their is nothing they won't politicize.
The authoritarian Wingnuts of the GOP love to take orders. Which is why they will never unleash the sheer energy that free speech blogs and their readerships will always enjoy. Which is why they now seek to defame, discredit, and destroy them. But they can't, because (just like rock 'n roll in 1956) the cat's out of the bag.
"Everybody in the whole cell block is dancin' to the jail-house rock"...
it really has become a war of propaganda against truth.
it's been that way for along time maybe, but it's really getting intense.

bor investigate? doubtful.
I sure hope someone thought to include Jesus' General in that call. I'm sure he would know how to handle that info...
Blogs that would support this are not right wing. That would be flattering them. A real right wing site would have questions of their own (as a left wing would about a Democrat) in a charge this serious and substantial. These are just Bush toady blogs.
Let's catapult our own propaganda for a change: http://www.inspiredbybill.blogspot.com/.
The Nixon debacle was horrifying and demoralizing, but these people never quit. The corruption and incompetence is beyond all reasoning or logic. If this is not a case of High Crimes and misdemeanors, NOTHING WILL EVER BE! Somehow we have got to get these assholes behind bars for what they have done to this country, not to mention the hundreds of thousands they have slaughtered in their self righteous arrogance.
We cannot just simply allow these people to leave office and live the good life. There absolutely MUST be justice!
No doubt Michelle Malkin was involved. That social parasite will be replacing Mann Coulter as the face of the conservative slutstorm once Mann's varicose veins start showing through those stocking of hirs.
"in order to familiarize the blogosphere with the legal and political arguments on which the administration will rely to prevail in the upcoming fight regarding the contempt citations Congress seems likely to approve"
Didn't Fielding recently refuse to provide Congress with any justification for claiming executive privilege?
YES!!! http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0707/5146.html My Senior senator steps up to the plate! Bush, whose current approval rating is hovering in the mid 20's, wasn't even elected by the majority in 2000 so why should he be allowed to tip the courts further to the right with unqualified right wing zealots who ignore precedent working towards a goal of totalitarian right wing fascist dictatorship?
SHUT UUUUP!!! - are you shitting me?
No wonder why Billo and the rest of Faux News are going after Marcos like he's OBL...
An old adage, that started with Nazi Germany in WW2, was to "seize the radio stations" as soon as a country was invaded. That way the propaganda had easy access to the populace, with no real counter-speech.
Today, I guess the adage is "seize the internet tubes"?
i'm curious to know about these "legal and political arguments on which the administration will rely to prevail in the upcoming fight regarding the contempt citations"
and i would especially appreciate a compilation of the pushback facts and counterpoints to those "arguments"...
if they are guilty ..........they are going to jail!!!!!!!

just some old 90's repug talking points....
It's eerily parallel to a story I posted today about the coordinated blog attacks on DailyKos, The New Republic, et al. this week.
The evidence would indicate that the WH is now resorting to what it does best - politicizing the institutional playing field. It has done such politicizing over and over again, almost like a broken record. This time, however, the WH is playing fast and loose in a most serious Constitutional crisis. To approach private outlets in the blogosphere and use them to carry water in its efforts to obstruct the Constitutional purview of Congress is shameful to those of us who still possess a conscience.
This whole crisis is the WH's by choice. There is an easier way to clear the humongous cloud forming over the WH than what it's chosen to do:
Mr. President look us, the citizens of America, in the eyes and tell us why we are in Iraq when OBL is in Pakistan! Tell us how Pat Tillman died, honestly! Fire Alberto Gonzales for disgracing the DoJ and law enforcement here in America! Tell us what role(s) your Mr. Cheney has played in fumbling our foreign policies.
Yes, Mr. President, until you give us something to work with that isn't simply your fancy on these most serious questions, you will not be allowed to rest on any firm ground or under any clear skies of credibility with the American public. -Kevo
Since Bush is getting in bed with right wing bloggers, then that means he thinks Democratic Senators should be murdered; Democratic Congressman should be sent Anthrax letters; reporters he disagrees with should be shot; >insert just about any right wing hate speech which infests the majority of right wing blogs here
Drudge tells the Bushies what to say, and the Bushies tell the bloggers what to say.
A perfect circle of deceit.

Must be. He's always running around quoting them.
Ron @ 2:
Oh. My. God.
. . . now would Pelopussy or Rockless Reid convene progressive or liberal bloggers ?
Of Cooooourse Not . . . This Shit leadership ... "is" ... "has been" ... & "will be" the Problem !
I see very few pelosi threads around Hmm.... What's that all about ?
Now she writing her fucking memoirs ... just who does she think she is ?
These failures have got to go !
Bet there was some heavy breathing on that conference call!

They will once again rely on the one thing they have no shortage of. LIES.

The Bush family.
Are they Krauts or British?
Either way they're not Americans.
I hate them.
I hope the Bush family came from Great Britain.
That side of my family could take this horrorshow as another sign of
the continued destruction of our race.
If they are Germans it means my family and race want to destroy themselves
within 100 years.
I hope more responds exactly as the BOZO GONZO. Please refer them to Castro for all validation and you can't remember you have to think about it let these pieces of shit go for it what a joke.
Gonzo commits perjury but will Bush fire him? The problem with loyalty is you usually end up loyal to the wrong people. The blades are spinning. The shit is dropping. Contact with the fan is imminent.
A conference of right-wing bloggers? And why would you find this so threatening? Don't like-minded people have a constitutional right to get together any more? Or perhaps you'd like to curtail their freedom of speech according to true liberal tradition. Dang I wish I didn't live so far. That would be one kick-butt conference!
O'Reilly getting "activist-ated" into oblivion:

Also, Americablog is running a lot of O'Reilly/activist articles...great stuff!
This sounds like an item for Olbermann to cover.
The criminal Rethuglican party is a dying breed and they're scared shitless.
If bloggers are getting "White house propoganda" from them directly, why would anyone go to them? Doesn't that just make them the MSM, but in electronic print?
Ruthless People @ 17:
New York Sen. Charles E. Schumer, a powerful member of the Democratic leadership, said Friday the Senate should not confirm another U.S. Supreme Court nominee under President Bush “except in extraordinary circumstances.”
Senators were too quick to accept the nominees’ word that they would respect legal precedents, and “too easily impressed with the charm of Roberts and the erudition of Alito,” Schumer said.
“There is no doubt that we were hoodwinked,” said Schumer, who sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee and heads the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.
A White House spokeswoman, Dana Perino, said Schumer's comments show "a tremendous disrespect for the Constitution" by suggesting that the Senate not confirm nominees. "
hahahahahahahahaha, incredible. Dana Perino must have Stephen Colbert size balls to make that statement.
Gotta get the Propaganda up and running for the Public to accept new policies.
We don't need confirmation hearings. We need trials of American legal counsel. They've failed. No need to pass any more rules or laws. Congress can go home. Time for the Courts to wok on the existing backlog of cases that should be brought against reckless American legal counsel who have failed to fully assert their oath, and have undermined the rule of law.
etheberge @ 44:
The GOP will ignore the Constitution, then invoke it to dissuade others from defending it. Perino . . .gag! Congress isn't required to do anything. In light of the DOJ Staff misconduct, where does the President propose getting legal counsel to become nominees? He had a hard enough time with the Supreme Court.
Putting aside that out of the cess pool of lawyers -- who have failed miserably since 2001 to defend the Constitution -- who is qualified to be a judge these days? Ask yourself: Given all the illegal activity that has _not_ been prosecuted, which lawyer who hopes to be a judge can credibly stand before the Senate and say, "Pick me."
This legal community can't seem to organize itself to defend the Constitution. Lawyers on the various ABA committees are supposed to be defending this Document. We have the likes of Yoo and Gonzalez and Addington running around making arguably reckless statements in defiance of Geneva and the Constitution on prisoner abuse and illegal warfare, yet -- it appears -- not one lawyer has organized an effort of their professional to have these individuals investigated, disbarred, prosecuted, and jailed.
Fill me in, exactly what does Dana Perino know about the Constitution?
