6. Add Hirsch to the list
I wonder when the media is going to do a story on Bush/Rove character assination tactics:

We got Wilson/Plame, Paul O'Neil, Richard Clark, now Hirsch.

YOu think some-one wouold pick up on it by now to show how Bushco shoots the messanger, rather than dealing with the message.

It will backfire on them, and when it does, they will pay with heavy politcal points.

8. Look back at 1800
And what happened to those people... I foresee the end of the GOP
as we know it.

They will pay... a price that they can barely understand. They are
starting to understand... as Sly Herh's article points to the price...but they have no idea.

Sadly mamy do not understand just how deep the crisis we are in the midst off truly is.

2. Yup
It's not going to go away. Imagine, the United States of America not abiding by the Geneva Convention. We've sunk so low.

7. No, that's a weapon of mass destruction progam related activity
or maybe just a leftover shell from 1988. It's hard to tell with these clever evildoers.

It's like looking for a needle in a hay stack trying to find this at Yahoo without the link. They are burying it.

Please go rate it. 5

10. A Guy At Work Gave It To Me This Morning
We passed each other in the hall and have a quick chat. A few minutes later we met in the hall again, he to give me the New Yorker article, and me to give him a copy of Wes Clark's article in the Washington Monthly. Good way to start the day with a coworker, sharing information.
