Sibel Edmonds story PROVED Bush didn't need extra taps to stop 9/11

She was translating phone conversations and got some very specific information about the attacks and was ignored.

http://www.justacitizen.com/

Her story is a bit complicated, but it was considered so damaging to Bushies that when she was set to testify in a civil trial, Ashcroft retroactively classified information she had already said publicly.

Why give these asswipes MORE power when they ignored the firehose of information coming at them about 9/11?

3. This Administration

treats any and all whistleblowers as poison.......and they damage all of them they come in contact with.

I have a list of whistleblowers who have resigned or been fired or have had some sort of reprisal.......it's by no means exhaustive, and I'd like to have a full list.

4. consistent pattern: they fuck up, blame someone else, seize more power

They couldn't do it without cooperation on press, but hopefully that's coming to an end.

How is she doing? Let's remember to keep a good thought for her--she's had quite a travail.

9. The NSA Wiretaps Are Not About Stopping Terrorists

They are about chasing down antiwar activists, vegans, and environmentalists.

10. In their previous incarnation, the right was about free markets and waged

a war against the welfare state. Without missing a beat, they morphed into the Crusaders in the War on Terror. But really, nothing has changed. Same old enemies: the left. Whether it's Chavez, Kerry, Cindy Sheehan, the Quakers or PETA, it's about the Righteous Right destroying the Left.

I wonder when a reporter will ask King George why God gave him bad info on Iraq if He had chosen Bush for this war.
