1. I was just about to post this. You beat me to it.
STILL FIGHTING - Mike Wallace reports on former P.O.W.s from the first Gulf War who were awarded a large judgment against Iraq for brutality they suffered in captivity but have been prevented from collecting it by the Bush administration.

also...

PORN IN THE U.S.A. -- Pornography is now a $10 billion industry in the U.S. and Steve Kroft examines the way it is disseminated, who is consuming it, and the surprising list of companies that reap hefty profits from it. This is a double-length segment.

3. Sorry, folks, the cupboard is bare.
The evil-doers took your money, sorry.

But it'll be ok, here comes a nice new tax cut.

When it comes to the pornography industry I am a pro-business conservative! ;)

9. Cheney was "too busy" to talk to 60 Minutes
As was Ashcroft and Powell. That's your crowd that "supports the troops" at work.

That money belongs to Halliburton!

10. This sums up the Bush administration
How could anyone who watched this 60 Minutes segment not see the Bush people for the uncaring bunch they are? It is incredible to me that anyone, and especially veterans, could support them.

11. Can't Figure how US Soldiers can sue Other governments
Joining the military is voluntary. Do all the hundreds of thousands of combat military personnel have the right to sue governments they fight against?

What about all the families of soldiers who have died in Iraq? Don't they have the right to sue for their loss?

One of our strangest and most misguided laws is the one that allows individual US citizens to sue a foreign government. It's not even logical, and it could have great effect on foreign policy.

13. Yes, just another minor atrocity to pile on the Bushevik Heap
Any one of them and Clinton would have been hung from the highest yardarm...
