It's official: We have a renegade government on our hands.

This prisoner abuse episode proves it...as well as the incident of turning over the security of Fallujah to a former Saddam official.

Bush didn't learn of the alleged prisoner abuse until he heard about it on the news? WTF! I guess he not the Commander-in-Chief afterall.

Rummy and Myers hadn't even read the report but were willing to hold a press conference about it.

We are condeming the soldiers who took part but obviously letting the brass get off.

We announced up front that the prisoners caught on the battlefield in this war on terra would NOT BE COVERED BY THE GENEVA CONVENTION so the soldiers plea that they were not trained in Geneva convention rules is a moot point in my book. Geneva didn't apply because our learders said so!

Bush runs away from his own road map and endorses Sharon's unilateral Gaza pullout (not).

We don't know to whom we are going to turn over "sovereignty" in June. We say we are not retreating from Fallajah as we pull out.

90% of the dead in Fallujah have proved to be civilians and very few so-called "foreign fighters" have been found.

Bush administration tries to bribe one of its own Congressmen to vote for a Medicare bill they know is a huge rip off and they also get the accuary official to withhold the true costs of the bill from the Congress and the American people.

High administration officials retaliate against a dissenter by outing his CIA undercover wife.

The only thing more dangerous than this government that has run amuck are the group of people who support and lie for this renegade government!

2. You got it right.

Did you notice that the photos and "allegations" of abuse surfaced in December or January?

BUT, apparently no one was punished until it hit the press in May!

According to CBS,

Two weeks ago, 60 Minutes II received an appeal from the Defense Department, and eventually from the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Richard Myers, to delay this broadcast -- given the danger and tension on the ground in Iraq.

60 Minutes II decided to honor that request, while pressing for the Defense Department to add its perspective to the incidents at Abu Ghraib prison. This week, with the photos beginning to circulate elsewhere, and with other journalists about to publish their versions of the story, the Defense Department agreed to cooperate in our report.

So, even though Myers knew exposure was coming, he didn't read the report (it is filtering up the chain) AND no one was punished until now, is that correct?

WTF?

3. You should mail that to every newspaper in America.

Let them know we're sick of this administration.

4. I mailed to to 4 today.

Wonder if it will get printed.

5. I'm distressed that the White House emails media w/Talking Points

Government control of the media? Emailing Olberman telling him to be their proxy interviewing Wilson? Cheney touting FOX as the 'preferred network' for accurate news? Things are getting out of control!!!
