You've Got A Nice Candidacy. Shame If Something Were To Happen To It.
They're not even trying to be sneaky about corruption anymore.
The White House has been twisting arms to ensure that no Republican member votes against President Bush in the Senate Judiciary Committee’s investigation of the administration's unauthorized wiretapping.
Congressional sources said Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove has threatened to blacklist any Republican who votes against the president. The sources said the blacklist would mean a halt in any White House political or financial support of senators running for re-election in November.
"It's hardball all the way," a senior GOP congressional aide said.
Bush is officially trying to turn the Republican Party into the Borg. Out-fucking-rageous.
