Today is an ominous day for the country, signifying a new low since Watergate in terms of openness and honesty in our government. This is far more than an indictment of an individual. In effect it's an indictment of the vicious and devious tactics used by the Administration to justify a war we never should have fought. It's an indictment of the lengths Administration officials were willing to go to cover up their failed intelligence, their distortion on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, and their serious blunders on the war. It is an indictment of their vindictive efforts to discredit anyone who challenge their misrepresentations.
The American people know the high cost of this misguided war -- 2,000 U.S. soldiers dead, more than 15,000 wounded, hundreds of billions of dollars spent with no end in sight, and a continuing shameful effort by the White House to silence those who try to tell the truth about the war. Dissent is the ultimate form of patriotism, and it's time we return to having an honest discourse in this country about changing direction and paying attention to the needs of the American people. The President should take this opportunity to do everything he can to heal the country by not interfering with the prosecution of this case or the continuing investigation, and by cleaning house at the White House to immunize the country against any further corruption and dishonesty. As the President promised, anyone still in the White House who had anything to do with this scandalous plot or the cover-up should be dismissed immediately, whether or not they have been indicted. Something has to give — America can't stand three more years of this failed Bush presidency.
Did not read the thread. Who cares what he thinks or says.
Today is an ominous day...haruumph...blech, cough, swallow, bloviate...well, you get the picture.
I don't need a lecture about ethics and telling the truth from the murderer of Mary Jo Kopechne. That hypocrite should have been wearing an organge jumpsuit 36 years ago.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Mary Jo Kopechne.....
"Fat Drunk and Stupid is no way to go through life!" ... I don't know, Fat Teddy is stoking along! Ever wonder what his last thought will be when death overtakes his bloated, liberal self? The way he's depended upon lie after lie to carry him along the waves of lieberal lickspittle, you know he doesn't believe he'll ever die and face judgement ... based on the way he's lived thus far.
<< Teddy, just shut up and drink your way through it like you have every administration since your brother's. >>
Your remark is just about total rubbish.
And should read: "Teddy, just shut up and drink your way through it like you have every administration INCLUDING your brother's."

Screw the swimmer etc!
