From an email sent by Wexler’s office:

Today, in hearings on Capitol Hill, I confronted Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on her role in the lies, exaggerations, and misdirection that led us into the Iraq war.
During my questioning, Secretary Rice falsely stated [...]

Weapons of mass destruction capable of killing millions… Iraq is allied with al Qaeda and a training ground for terrorists… The smoking gun could be a mushroom cloud… September the 11th… Mobile biological weapons facilities… Unmanned aerial vehicles… Aluminum tubes… Chemical weapons… Uranium from Niger…

A new study [...]

I have little editorial comment on this new development other than to say, fuck you Bush! And a holiday prayer that The Real America vis-a-vis our principles come crashing down on his coke head.
Happy Holidays!

Vanity Fair offers a sobering look at the costs that we — and our children and their children — will pay for the last eight years of Bush/Cheney economics.
The damage done to the American economy does not make front-page headlines every day, but the repercussions will be [...]

Seven years later, at least the cable media is beginning to pull their noses out of Bush’s ass and do their job.

Many scandals ago, with each new one, I would think it couldn’t get any worse. Today I believe we will continue to uncover [...]

Randi Rhodes of Air America, speech to the 50th Anniversary party of “PEACE ACTION of Michigan” on November 11, 2007.
DO not miss this. It is the most honest REAL discussion of what is really happened over the past seven long years.

This “blast from the past” stands as a stark reminder of the chorus corporate controlled media, coordinated talking points and hyperbolic name-calling that manged to shout down anyone who presented reason and fact in the face of the drumbeat to attack Iraq.
This little piece contains all the now classic tactics so shamefully employed against the [...]

Can we impeach the fucker now?

Washington Post publishes additional details about the Bush administration’s warrantless wiretapping, noting that the National Security Agency approached Qwest “more than six months before the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.” But the Body Politik’s Igor Volsky points out that President Bush has claimed that the program was [...]

“Trickle down”, the linchpin of Reaganomics, never had a basis in economic theory. It was, and still is a trick to lull us into complacency so Repulicans can further consolidate wealth (read power) into fewer hands.
In fact, “trickle down” worked so badly under Reagan, he was forced to raise taxes on the middle class [...]

Via Think Progress. Tony Snow’s op-ed in USA Today earlier this week deserves special attention because it’s a handy catalog of Bush administration lies. Some of these are so big they’ve become part of the landscape and we hardly notice them anymore.
Here’s the title: “Victory in Iraq is vital: President has weakened al-Qaeda, [...]

I was a guest again yesterday on the radio program called “The Right Balance” with Greg Allen.
One of our topics of discussion was who won the recent Rocky/Hannity debate and why. In a nutshell, I explained that I think by his integrity and attempts to discover and present facts, Rocky won the debate, while Hannity [...]

Rocky laid out a bullet-proof prima-facie case for the impeachment of George W. Bush.
Hannity retreated into his hallmark pandering strategy refusing to address the facts in the case for impeachment of Bush. Not one word about Bush, the Constitution, illegal rendition, torture, wiretapping US citizens illegally, or the suspension of Habeas Corpus. Just personal attacks [...]
