happened. It takes away the "Partisan" talking point on this. If this is true then Republicans should join us in our call for an "Independent Special Prosecutor/Investigator?. Without some Republicans behind an investigation there would never be one. This will assure an investigation will occur. That is what we want, Right? Let the chips fall where they may. If Democrats are involved in War Crimes then they should be held accountable the same as any Republican. This is about the rule of Law and America. It is far greater than any Party or Politic..Demand an Independent Investigation....Restore America's Credibility..

1. I couldn't agree more.

We need to get this all out in the open, and anyone, from either party, that was involved should have to face the people on what their role was in this mess.

This could be a good thing for the democratic party because it will shed light on those in the this party who went along with Bush, and who have been part of the cover up all along. We can't get investigation going if the democrats in congress are trying to cover up their own involvement in this. There needs to be a purge of bad members of congress on both sides, this could help that process begin!

2. It's a great diversion. And we're also being told that Rice 'won' a fight with Cheney on this? nt

3. That's only if you trust the CIA's memory

over those you claim to support.
Since Congress was not allowed to even entertain a discussion with the population during the Bushco regime, I'll continue to support Pelosi over the CIA.

4. What does that possibly have to do with requesting an Independent Investigator?

I don't believe a thing that comes from either Congress or especially the CIA. It would be nice if we somehow could really get to the bottom of it don't you think?

5. I agree with you that we should get to the bottom of it

but I sure trust Pelosi more than Bushco's CIA.
