Coverup alert! 9/11 intel; Iraq intel; Bush Guard records gone
Edited on Fri Jul-09-04 06:14 PM by TruthIsAll
Abu Ghraib; Medicare congressional vote bribery scam; Patriot Act Congressional vote scam...

Who really expects anything to come out of the Plame investigation?

Bush gets away with everything.

2. emailed this same thing (though extended) to media today:
the latest piece of bush material that has ended up missing!

how interesting....
i do so hope that there will be one item out of this administration that actually gets investigated and exposed.

- energy task force records?
- who endangered valerie plame and scuttled her wmd investigation? the real reasons why?
- why would the wh block the formation and investigation of the 9/11 commission? and why would they insist on testifying together and not under oath?
- halliburton egregious no bid contracts?
- "state secrets" argument used so that sibel edmonds testimony cannot be revealed?
- meetings or no - with george tenet in august 2001?
- sauds and bin laden family members allowed access out of u.s. quickly post 9/11 (which even prince bandar acknowledged on larry king live or hardball this past spring)?
- patriot act written prior to 9/11? - yet why would that be necessary (putting the scary factor aside for a moment) if there were no meetings held to strategize against terrorism pre 9/11?
- memos written to circumvent and dismiss the geneva convention not only in iraq but in us prisons around the world?
- wmd excuse was given because it was the one most palatable to the public?
- martial law played out in a devastatingly frightening way in savannah georgia during the g8 summit?


my hands and head hurts from writing all this! so ill have to leave it at that

are these not enough neon signs (after neon signs) along with journalists admitting this is the most secretive wh ever? and these journalists feel "intimidated" by this wh?

i realize to a certain person, i would sound "over the top". but its truly frightening how rational this is, and the evidence is there to be found if anyone would take our constitution and democracy to be of utmost importance to defend.

thank you to john dean and to the many military personnel and to richard clarke and to rep henry waxman (ca) for speaking out and to the people of ny who literally forced this administration to investigate 9/11 and to the handful of reporters who will ask questions and to the millions of those across this country who are tired of the fear and the deceptions and the greed and the lowest depths that our government has shown by disgracing and subverting our democracy.

and thank you for reading these sincere feelings. it will take all of us to make a difference, and i ask all of us to search, not only for the truth, but our own hearts to find why it is we are not standing up and stopping this nightmare from destroying our country and consitution.

4. As long as the repubs own congress we won't see any investigations.
These people are the biggest hypocrits that ever existed since the creation of the world. Why couldn't the founding fathers allowed We the People be able to impeach some of these creeps. The entire republican party should be arrest, tried, and sent to jail for treason.

5. The Reagan/Bush41 papers...
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/01/04/politics/main323121.shtml

Still locked up are 60,000 pages of Reagan records and tens of thousands of pages left behind by Mr. Reagan's vice president, George Bush. ... The Presidential Records Act kept the 68,000 pages of records closed for 12 years because they contained confidential internal advice and deliberations among government officials.
<snip>
The Bush White House, however, delayed opening the files for a year so it could review them and work on an executive order President Bush issued Nov. 1. It gives former presidents more authority to withhold certain papers and the sitting president the authority to overrule his predecessor.
<snip>
"This executive order is unlawful," said Public Citizen attorney Scott Nelson. "We shouldn't have to have this order governing the release of Reagan documents and Bush documents and other president's documents from here to eternity."
<snip>
Some historians have suggested the Bush White House is worried about what the Reagan papers might reveal about former Reagan officials who now work for Mr. Bush or about his father, Reagan's vice president and successor. Among former Reagan aides are Secretary of State Colin Powell, Budget Director Mitch Daniels Jr. and White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card.
