Yesterday’s phenomenal testimony at the John Conyers’ Hearing on the Downing Street Memo left many jaws gaping. All news organizations are now faced with a choice, are they going to continue to cover for the Bush Administration, or are they going to cover The Downing Street Memo story like it ought to be covered?

Governor George W. Bush, "A Distinctly American Internationalism," Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, Simi Valley, California, November 19, 1999
It is an honor to be with you at the Reagan Library. Thank you Secretary Shultz for your decades of service to America - and for your kindness and counsel over the last several months. And thank you Mrs. Reagan for this invitation - and for your example of loyalty and love and courage.

Enabling Evil
15 June 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
4 commentsIn 1996, Daniel Jonah Goldhagen published Hitler’s Willing Executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust. His thesis is that the mass murder of Jews was not done on the quiet by a few Nazi fanatics. Instead, Goldhagen writes, by their complicity, ordinary Germans were willing participants in the slaughter.
In other words, the German people as a people were guilty as well, because they accepted and permitted the slaughter of an ethnic group.
Goldhagen’s thesis has had rough sledding. (…) -

George Washington Warns:"Foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government"
14 June 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
"Observe good faith and justice toward all nations. Cultivate peace and harmony with all. Religion and morality enjoin this conduct. And can it be that good policy does not equally enjoin it? It will be worthy of a free, enlightened, and at no distant period a great nation to give to mankind the magnanimous and too novel example of a people always guided by an exalted justice and benevolence. Who can doubt that in the course of time and things the fruits of such a plan would richly repay any (…)

Bush’s 3 little words, 1 big betrayal
14 June 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
3 commentsBy Hal Lindsey © 2005 WorldNetDaily.com
The Israelis are reeling from the body blow delivered them by President Bush following his meeting with Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas. In one pronouncement, Bush totally scuttled all the hard-fought, blood-bought gains Israel has made in the three wars forced upon her.
All peace negotiations and concessions by Israel in the pursuit of peace with the Muslim Nations and Palestinians since 1949 have been rendered null and void.

The Growing Case for a Resolution of Inquiry
14 June 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
2 commentsArticle II, Section 4 of the United States Constitution: "The President, Vice President, and all civil officers of the United States shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
It is becoming more evident that an impeachment inquiry is needed to determine whether the United States was plunged into war with Iraq based on manipulated intelligence and false information. Thus far the President and Vice President (…) -
Democratic Party of Wisconsin Calls for Impeachment
13 June 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
8 commentsOnce again, the Democratic Party divides between the rank-and-file and the "pols". The Democratic Party of Wisconsin, in the closing hours of its state-wide convention yesterday, adopted a resolution:
"CALLING ON THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS TO INITIATE IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDINGS AGAINST PRESIDENT BUSH, VICE PRESIDENT CHENEY AND DEFENSE SECRETARY RUMSFELD FOR HIGH CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS"
However, the "pols" are attempting what they strangely perceive as necessary "damage control" such that (…) -
The Impeachability of the Bush Administration
13 June 2005 par (Open-Publishing)
2 commentsIntroduction First off, I’d like to start by saying that this isn’t about impeaching Bush. The subject is clearly about the Impeachment of the Administration. The entire administration, even those who we may find more politically palatable than the rest, need to go given the recent findings in the numerous leaked minutes, reports and internal secret communications of the British government.
Secondly, it is obvious, someone high up in the British government has the moral fortitude, bravery (…)
