I read recently about Washington insiders dying to spill their guts after bushco leaves office.
It sounded pretty ominous, and suggested what we already know barely scratches the surface. I can't find where I saw that on DU now.

I sure hope that is true. I don't mean that in the sense that I hope they were more evil and egregious than we ever thought, but that there are people wanting to come forward with the truth and set the record straight.

I've kinda wondered about the timing of some of the turnovers, resignations, resistance to subpoenas, secrecy, subsequent book deals, etc., over the bushco years. And also this sudden "supposed" reflection and reticence from gw lately, over what he might have done differently. Not sure I believe that, but I'll keep my suspicions and powder dry for now.

As long as these insiders and reporters are willing and anxious to spill their guts, I look forward to freepers and radical right pundit heads exploding everywhere. And enough that they shut their fucking mouths for the next 50 years.

Anyone who recalls that news item or video or where ever I read this, I'd sure appreciate that link. Or any others that you know of as well.

1. I swear, if I don't get to see Bush and Cheney wearing orange jumpsuits sooner or later...
I'm going to be mighty p-o'd.

4. KO said tonight that Wired magazine reported there are a lot of people with inside NSA knowledge
who have said to journalists "Call me on January 21 and I'll tell you what kind of illegal wiretapping has REALLY been going on."

5. One can only hope.
My thought is that it will vindicate what many Democrats have said even before he took office.

6. Why would we care after the fact?
They should have done their patriotic duty when it would have counted. I'm not giving them any money for tell all biographies.

10. I'm not talking about books, I'm talking hearing the truth.
I want them living the rest of their lives in shame, and their legacies remembered accordingly.

12. Whatever it is, Bob Woodward will say...
...he knew it all along but just couldn't tell. Then he'll say he knows more than we know now, but won't tell us that either.
