Is there anyone that didn't realize or suspect that Blackwater was a CIA operation? I find that hard to believe.

These are the same caliber of people who don't realize that Iran has a nuclear weapons program...

Worth repeating:

When we start to prosecute those who have kept us safe, one doesn't need to be clairvoyant to see what might happen.

(Although I would change "might" to "will"...)

Why didn’t Bush oust these people?

That's the trillion dollar question. Timmerman can't come up with a good answer. I don't know if Bush has ever been asked. Maybe Cheney knows.

Yes, “Shadow Warriors” is a must for all of us = and for any of our politicians we hope to get into power. Thanks for the suggestion -

Daddy Bush was director of the CIA from January 30, 1976 to January 20, 1977. I have suspicioned, because of his inside knowledge of the machinations of under-the-radar operatives, “W” built the “Western White House” in the hinterlands, assuring no bugs in the walls and far enough ‘out there’ to avoid any listening devices. He held many high level meetings there with his cabinet and with foreign leaders.

This may well have thwarted much of the sabotage - I shudder to think of how much worse it may have been.

“Sarah” is probably aware of this Shadow gov’t, but just in case, we should all email the link to her. (I posted it, along with an excerpt from a review, on her FaceBook - but afraid it will be buried as she has over a million “friends’ on the site = and climbing.

the only current email address I have is for her pac in Virginia

If they get enough contacts from us on this book, they will likely pass it on to her. We want her in the WH, but we can take no chances that she go without being aforewarned so that she can hit the ground running with her own people to fill the slots in these agencies - NO HOLDOVERS.

This is what I sent:

Dear Governor Palin:

You are probably aware of the ‘real’ government that operates under the radar in DC but, to cross the t’s..., please look at this book.

The biggest mistake “W” made was not the clean house. He allowed holdovers from the enemy camp. It was devastating.

Any republican going to the WH must hit the ground running with their own team, down to the lowest level, and do a clean sweep...regardless of opposition and threats.

NO HOLDOVERS - NO MATTER.

This book is a guide: know your enemies: the SHADOW GOV'T. It names names.

excerpt from review:

“It's not political appointees - it's the unelected staffers who populate the buildings up and down Pennsylvania Avenue and show up to work just enough to earn their step increases in the GS pay scale. The rest of the time, well - Mr. Timmerman discusses how partisan staff members within the CIA and State Department waged a war of their own on the Administration to discredit it in the public’s eye. For those of you who loathe Bush over Iraq, you may have been had by one of the greatest disinformation campaigns of all time...”
