Time for all those "heavy hitters" who knew Iraq intel was bogus, manipulated, manufactured or whatever to make their presence known.

How can we help make this happen? Can we get the names of these very reputable people to the news media so they can back Clarke up?????



Can they link up with Clarke and hold some kind of a public forum maybe sponsored by the 9/11 Commission??. These dissenters NEEEED to get together, strenght in #s is very important now.

1. I am wondering if and when Colin Powell
will decide that his integrity is worth more than Bush's power trip.

I admire loyalty as much as the next guy but there comes a point....

4. Wise words from Daniel Ellsberg
source: http://progressivetrail.org/articles/040128Ellsberg.shtml

<snip>

I have no doubt that there are thousands of pages of documents in safes in London and Washington right now—the Pentagon Papers of Iraq—whose unauthorized revelation would drastically alter the public discourse on whether we should continue sending our children to die in Iraq. That's clear from what has already come out through unauthorized disclosures from many anonymous sources and from officials and former officials such as David Kelly and U.S. ambassador Joseph Wilson, who revealed the falsity of reports that Iraq had pursued uranium from Niger, which President Bush none the less cited as endorsed by British intelligence in his state of the union address before the war. Both Downing Street and the White House organized covert pressure to punish these leakers and to deter others, in Dr. Kelly's case with tragic results.

Those who reveal documents on the scale necessary to return foreign policy to democratic control risk prosecution and prison sentences, as Katherine Gun is now facing. I faced 12 felony counts and a possible sentence of 115 years; the charges were dismissed when it was discovered that White House actions aimed at stopping further revelations of administration lying had included criminal actions against me.

Exposing governmental lies carries a heavy personal risk, even in our democracies. But that risk can be worthwhile when a war's-worth of lives is at stake.
