After Ron Suskind Reveals Bush Admin Ordered Iraq-9/11 Fakery, House Judiciary Chair John Conyers Opens Congressional Probe

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ron Suskind joins us for part two of an interview on his new book, The Way of the World: A Story of Truth and Hope in an Age of Extremism. Suskind reports that in 2003 the White House ordered the CIA to forge and disseminate false intelligence documents linking al-Qaeda and Iraq. While much of the attention on the book has focused on the forged letter, Suskind also reveals that the Bush administration and the British government knew prior to the war that Iraq had no weapons of mass destruction. We also speak to Rep. John Conyers, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, which is investigating some of the explosive findings in Suskind's book.

1. Wow....that didn't last long.
I was hoping to see Conyers' face when he said the inevitable.."Meh...we MIGHT do something about it"

4. More of Rep. Conyers in Part 5. "This is now public information.."
"... that has to be investigated by the rest of the media...."

"What you are doing is a great service." .... "You have my congratulations ...."

2. Conyers is hem hawing' as usual. He has no balls. He is too polite.
He is so polite to criminals that he is worthless when it comes to investigations. There are murderers in our precious White House and he says he's spent 3 days investigating. These criminals have been in office for 8 damn years! Give me a fucking break! :dem:

3. John Conyers is GREAT. He went after this ASAP.
His role in oversight, esp. of the DoJ, has been stellar.

7. Chairman Chickenheart Needs To Pass The Gavel To Mr. Wexler
If he's not going to lead, he should just step back and follow.

It's sad that both the first woman Speaker and first minority Judiciary Chair will end up as historic failures. And as accessories after-the-fact to torture and war crimes. The clock is ticking on the opportunity to redeem themselves.

But that doesn't mean we can't achieve impeachment in spite of them. Target Nadler. Target Obama.

Just keep talking impeachment to anyone you can -- as loudly as you can.

8. Yeah, Conyers sounds scared to death
Here is someone, handing him a crime on a plate, not only a crime but an impeachable crime, but he is hemming and hawing because he is being forced to actually DO HIS JOB! What a bucket of warm spit.

9. Holy Crap
Could Conyers have made it any more clear that he is going to do NOTHING about this? "He's happy to be invited on?" He's miserable about it, because he's finally being put on the spot and asked what he is going to do about it. What a mealy-mouthed fraud he is. Thanks for posting these, but they just made me more angry.

10. People sound just like a Karl Rove clones when bashing Conyers.
Keep it up, Dem bashers, and you'll help bring down the Dems and prevent meaningful opposition.

I cannot help but notice that the principal opponents the the criminal Junta
are the primary targets of the trollesque Dem bashers! Coincidence? I think not!!!
