REID TO SIGN CALL FOR GANNON INQUIRY
Indeed.

DEMOCRATIC SENATE LEADER REID WILL SIGN CALL FOR GANNON INQUIRY... DEVELOPING...

Only two senators formally on board so far. But with the two leaders (Reid/Durbin), I'm sure there will be more to come...

1. You just saved me a post
We can bitch all we want about our propaganda media who will not delve into anything remotely tarnishing Bush (we've only got about a zillion things on that list over the last four years). BUT the missing variable in it all are the Democrats. If at least 80-90% of our Congressional leaders yelled like hell about Gannon (or the long list of issues), the media would make it page one. If they are going to play the usual silence game, then they are going to have to be content to lose. They either get the instincts that the Republicans use in these matters or accept that more of them will be packing their bags in D.C. Maybe, someone has started to figure this out. But WARNING: It takes a whole shitpile of them standing together and screaming. The media will pick off and silence just a couple. Gannon story and many to come: the ball is in the Dems court....better goddamn well start dribbling........

9. Yes, he is.
We need to appreciate the significance of this: a number of the nay-sayers on DU have made it sound as if interest in the Gannon scandal is "tin foil," (to quote some) ..... and now we see a growing interest among the democrats like Reid. I think that we will find there is more to the story than meets the eye.

We are merely at the summit, indeed!

13. Don't worry. Durbin's pushing this thing.
If Obama wants to stay on the Judicial Committee, he'll get on board.

8. Reid Will Get to the Bottom of It.......
I am by no means a Republican, as you can tell by visiting my web site, www.NoAnthraxVaccine.net, but now residing in Nevada, I must say that Reid is as corrupt as any Republican. If he wasn't, the CIA-ran-voting machines wouldn't let him win, now, would they?

Reid's call for an "investigation" is like having Bush (al-CIAda) "hunting" bin Laden (al-CIAda).

Cordially,
Mark Anderson

11. Eventually some people
will be put in a position that they either have to do the right thing or expose their own corruption. I will take my change of hearts wherever I can find them.

21. welcome NoAnthraxVaccine
a corrupt politician you say? NOOOOOOOOO. Next thing you're going to tell me is that there is no Easter Bunny!

/sarcasm

Yeah, politicians are bought and paid for by special interests if that's what you mean. But I read that Reid fought against corruption in the NGC, and even choked people and gangsters tried to kill him.

If the motherfucking voting machines are the only thing you have then I say your tin foil hat is on a little tight. Do you really think the CIA takes care of that? Give the man a chance.

15. They're all in recess, too. This is big.
The Dem leadership is making it known to us that they intend to do what is necessary to get to the bottom of this. Don't you see how this will embarass any moderate Republican who doesn't sign on?

This is about ethics and propaganda, not about passing some partisan, bullshit legislation. It's happening people. Like I told Ron Brynaert (who's done a tremendous job on this story), "Remember, Watergate looked like nothing on the surface."

We are not making a mountain out of a molehill. It just looks that way because we are only at the summit with our eyes barely open.

19. Fantastic! We need to call him & all other Senators tommorrow and urge
them to also sign! I plan on calling Boxer, Feinstein, Kennedy, Byrd, KERRY and many others and ask them to do so as well!

We need to remind them to ask themselves the following question:

"What would the Republican Senator's have done if this had happened in the Clinton or even the Kerry White House?"

Once they have answered that question, lets hope they get on to signing and pursuing the truth!

23. Operation Mockingbird, domestic military PsyOps all need to be
added into the mix. The key is the GAO's power to investigate since Congress will never allow their Republican abuses of power to become public knowledge.

Look into the old scandals they let die in the past... the CIA's "The Finders"; the military intelligence use of satanists in their midst (the Michael Aquino scandal SF Presidio some time back); military intelligence's domestic spying on MLK before and during his assassination (an possible complicity)...

I could go on but the key here is that Gannon/Guckert's background hasn't shown that he isn't currently active duty. And if not confirmed as to the true nature of his employment...read stonewalling, his documentation will never be revealed. Besides, the military and 'intelligence' promotes weird scenarios in order to claim 'plausible deniability'.

It's all above our paygrade as taxpaying citizens.
