    Salim Ahmed Hamdan, from Yemen, is accused of conspiracy to commit war crimes, including (…)

    Public Catching On To Dirty Deeds Bill Gallagher July 19, 2005 Detroit - Lying and denying, kicking and screaming, the Busheviks are defending comrade Karl Rove from the enemies of the state who are attacking him. We now have the "smoking gun" evidence that Rove was involved in the sordid scheme to "out" CIA officer Valerie Plame. Retribution, a quintessential Rove political weapon, brought him to expose Plame and risk national security in the process to get back at her husband, former (…)

    What the Hell is Congress doing? Government lying and corruption has been exposed like never before and Congress is still naming Post Offices! After the ground-breaking Downing Street Memo Hearing last month- Bush and Cheney should be under full investigation if not behind bars by now.
    Most DC Democrats won’t even talk about the memo...
    ... and those that do only go so far as to ask for an inquiry. The evidence is already public knowledge- we don’t need no stinkin’ inquiry, we need (…)

    In Iraq today the truth itself is in the crosshairs. Any (…)

    Would you be surprised to find that a man who was deeply involved in the Iran-Contra scandal during the Reagan Administration, a man who is the darling of the Bush White House and is an adviser to Karl Rove, a man who loves Machiavelli and studies him, a neo-conservative who has close ties to one of America’s leading "Christian" Dominionists - Pat Robertson, and a man who called Pearl Harbor "lucky" and a providentially inspired event-may be the man who is behind the forging of the Niger (…)
