The vast majority of Americans need to see things this clearly in order to IMPEACH BUSH. Interesting that he's an ex military guy AND that he says the driving point of this may not be the illegality or lying but the LACK OF PREPARATION....everyone can get behind that. The lack of preparation may be what brings people over the hump but, IMO, it's the illegality and the lying that gets him impeached. Anything is possible. ======== "I think it is clear from the documents themselves that the whole venture was widely viewed as being highly dubious with no certainty of what would come out of it." "We in the mainstream media are at a crossroads now. The Internet has opened up a large number of challenges to us. We can allow the web news sites to sideline us or we can impose our largely better honed skills and show that we are the best at what we do." "There is no doubt in my mind that the administration lied and distorted the truth, one Congress begins to realise the scale of it, Bush could be in serious trouble." "You can back the boys who are doing what the politicians order them to do while at the same time questioning the politicians' orders" Most importantly, the work is just beginning with the DSMs as the starting off point: "Yes there are other facts you still don't know and the media should be using these public documents as a base from which to find them out because it is those facts that will really damage Bush. Some of the media already are on the case. Knight Ridder went in very early on in this story and I see is still going. The LA Times and The Washington Post and lots of smaller papers have all been doing their bit." UH OH: "We're are stuck a barrel now. The Geneva Convention says that if you occupy a country, you have to leave it able to govern itself and protect itself." "This is the documentary evidence from within the U.K. equivalent of an NSC meeting." "It wasn't faulty intelligence that took us to war, it was them." "I have no doubt that the lack of preparation will be discussed in Congress. That's when the heat will really be turned on the administration."
