4. The ugly story of the Chickenhawk Republicon Oil Pipeline Crusade

Edited on Mon Jul-26-10 06:27 AM by SpiralHawk

This is what happens when you let Republicon Homelanders put an AWOL FAIL Freak like George Bush, and a war profiteer with five military deferments, Dick Cheney, in charge of our sons and daughters in uniform. Since they themselves lack honor, they communicate a culture of crap...

Edited on Mon Jul-26-10 07:38 AM by AlabamaLibrul

albeit with somewhat degraded audio, but you can hear the questions more clearly.

I freaked out when I saw the BBC stream was down.

21. No problem.

After this, it's clear that there is a contingent of the US / NATO forces that is leaking worse than Deepwater Horizon, and I think it's safe to say these people wouldn't be doing it if they were chest-beating supporters of everything we're doing over there.

Wikileaks and its mirrors have been spotty, at best, all day. I'm downloading an archive of the wardiary site right now, in HTML file format (just open the file and your browser opens it as an archive of the webpage), and plan to upload it to a file-sharing site and post it on DU so as to promote access to the mountain of information.

The people deserve to know. With any luck, which seems to be hard to come by these days, this will be the true turning point in the war.
