[Peach]

Good for you.

I've got to say, it's delightful to watch the democrats doing all the things we did wrong in our quest to oust Clinton.

I have to disagree with you here. The charges against Clinton were based on facts that the dems/media would spin, subdue and distort and do polling and such to intimidate Republicans to back down.

The dems constantly manufacture claims against GWB that are complete fabrications. Big difference.

I don't think Republicans over-reached. They should not have kowtowed to the polls and media/dem hectoring not to go there, and simply proceeded to present the facts against him to the American people. There was no outrage, as Bob Dole famously fretted, because our leaders in the Senate didn't present a picture of unified outrage. The reason the House passed articles of impeachment was because they finally reached a critical mass of outrage there and what a sight to behold when righteous men and women stood up and condemned the damnable.

Thanks. Just sent CBS a message explaining my feelings about their behavior.

[kcvl]

Would you all help me keep "CBS 60 Minutes" info bumped to the top or maybe start a separate thread for this information?


I'll see if I can find more telephone numbers, addresses and emails of other willing participants of this outrage.

'Washington Post' Publishes Only a Few of Its Many Iraq-Prison Photos

May 11, 2004

NEW YORK Despite having more than 1,000 photos taken by American soldiers of life in and around the abuse-filled Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, The Washington Post has published just 10 depicting alleged mistreatment of prisoners due to concerns over incomplete information about the pictures and the "dignity of those [who are naked] in the photos," said Executive Editor Leonard Downie, Jr.

"It is only a fraction of the photos that show abuse," Downie told E&P. "Out of those, we have only published photos in which we knew what was going on in the picture. We have other photos of people with injuries and we did not know what those injuries were. We had no idea if the injuries were from abuse or not, who they are, or how the injury occurred."

Downie also praised the cooperation among many newspapers and magazines covering the story, such as The New York Times and The New Yorker, for sharing the images and offering credit where deserved.

I just watched the video of Nick Berg being beheaded.

Somehow, I think Mr. Berg would have preferred women's panties.

They are concerned about the dignity of the naked terrorists. Where is their concern about the dignity of our country, of our military. I hate beyond what I thought I could hate.

I too am shaking with anger and hatred but just went outside to look at flowers and the sky and pray.

We simply cannot let our loathing of the media and Rats to change who we are. To lower ourselves to their standards.
We cannot let this happen to us.
