WTF! USA Today to Bush: Reveal terrorism's backers
Edited on Sat Jul-26-03 11:56 PM by TruthIsAll
Imagine that. USA Today. They are actually putting Bush's feet to the fire.

John O'Neill was right. It all goes back to the Saudi's, the Bush benefactors. That's why he was told to stop investigating by BushCo.

Look at what is happening:
The Cheney energy papers released.
The House voting against FCC/Powell.
Graham talking impeachment.
Bush poll ratings in free-fall.
Soldiers dying every day in Iraq.
Spending $4 billion a month in Iraq.
Diebold (and soon Bush) up against the ropes on election fraud.
9/11 victims pissed off more and more.
Big bucks flowing to Carlyle, Halliburton, Bechtel, etc. They don't even hide it.
The Patriot Act - revisions.
CIA pissed re: Wilson's wife outted by WH (treason).
Henry Waxman quietly going about his business - to prepare a case against BushCo.

Yes, it's getting very interesting..



Connecting...final...dots....?

Reveal terrorism's backers

The nation's first investigation into the 9/11 attacks had a single goal: to find out how 19 hijackers were able to launch a surprise attack that killed 3,000 people on U.S. soil. On Thursday, a congressional committee conducting the probe released its declassified findings. Instead of a complete account, the public got a report with a glaring hole -- 27 heavily censored pages.

Domestic intelligence agencies were rebuked for serious lapses. Kept under wraps, though, were details of how a foreign government financed the terrorists and helped them travel and hide in the USA to plan their murderous attacks, according to former Senate Intelligence Committee chairman Bob Graham, D-Fla. The foreign government is widely acknowledged to be Saudi Arabia.

The Bush administration said the censorship was imperative to protect national security. Yet the real beneficiaries are the Saudis, whose links to terrorism remain hidden, and the Saudi ruling family's feelings.

Even Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., the panel's former vice chairman, says censored parts ''might be embarrassing'' but don't threaten security and should be released.

He's right. The public deserves the full story, not a version gussied up to protect a sometimes ally.

5. Great stuff..an open demand to shrub...the press is no longer
protecting the fool....

we must know, and bush is complicit in another cover-up here...

just a few days ago, the Wall Street Journal said that it was becoming a "seamless" merging of the TWO bush* intelligence failures, 9/11 and Iraq...

it's all becoming ONE big bush* scandal...could shrub go down spectacularly ...sort of like the big Enron collapse...sudden and relatively unexpected...

a nixonian exit...just suddenly reads his little announcement one evening..says briefly that he resigns, EFFECTIVE NOON THE NEXT DAY...and while everyone held their breathe...he came out of the WH and flew away at noon...and the parties began...there was dancing in the streets...

11. cheney will avoid prosecution by resigning for "health reasons"
Edited on Sun Jul-27-03 12:58 AM by amen1234
and continue his old defense multi-billion dollars contracts from his beautiful home in the Grand Tetons...your right, cheney is the brains, which is why he won't go the jail...and he's likely got his whole excape route set up....

you may remember, the English Courts even let pinochet leave, due to health reasons...they didn't want to look cruel to a sick old man...

the real stuff will be the upcoming powergrab....

under the 25 Amendment (passed after Kennedy was killed), the President appoints a VP, who is then approved by Congress (totally controlled by reTHUGlicans, so they can pick whoever they want)...
the reTHUGlicans are likely picking a VP right now, to take cheney's place, and then assume the Presidency when bush* resigns (or is impeached or goes to the Haig)...they will never give up power by just letting it hang there...maybe a scary Dr. Frist ? who knows..it could even be from outside the government...anyone..it's wide open...and no doubt, they're looking at it NOW...BIG power play upcoming...

as nixon got close to the end, it seemed that a deal was brokered, since Gerald Ford presidentially pardoned nixon shortly after assuming the presidency...Ford assumed the VP first, which had been vacated by convicted criminal Spiro Agnew (HUD housing fraud, stealing money from public housing projects)....then Ford moved up to the Pres. when nixon quit...then Ford appointed a VP, who was Nelson Rockefeller (who held NO office at the time of his appointment, as an obscenely wealthy guy, he just wanted the office)...

so, we ended up with BOTH a NON-elected Pres. and VP...and none of that crap went over very well with voting Americans, who booted out Gerald Ford after a short less than two-year stay in the WH....

12. The Higher Ups are slowly cutting its lines to the BushCo.
It is they who pull the media strings,,,,,,,

Now we see, of late, the raw beginnings of the Bush House of Tissue Paper, going down in flames as it should.

Poor Bush, had a chance at greatness, instead went the cheap route and got shit instead/

13. dragging around his bloody human head trophies on TV likely
woke up a lot of people...shrub has got to leave...

I can just picture those rich old coots opening their morning papers over a cup of coffee...and seeing bush* bragging, as he gleefully displays his bloody and bloated human head trophies...bet their coffee came right out their noses...and they picked up the phone to ask: WHAT is he doing????!!!! This idiot has GOT TO GO....get someone in there who knows what he's doing...

New York Times and many papers carrying paid ads today (from BIG money people) demanding an investingation into bush* Iraq war lies...

it's spiralling out-of-control now for shrub and his handlers...watch for a lot of upcoming resignations, as the rats jump off the sinking shrub boat...

15. Holy shit!! In the USA Today??
Edited on Sun Jul-27-03 08:45 AM by Nay
I keep telling people at work (Repuke stronghold) that the Saudis were behind it and that their bushbaby is a big buddy, but no one has listened. . .yahoo! Take that!

Will this be in a print edition, or is it just online?? I want to leave the print edition lying around if I can.



Edited to ask question.

18. PLEASE, PLEASE let it ALL come out!!
And throw the voting machines in there with it!!

If the big scandals coming out about the BFEE overshadow the issues about the voting machines, and THAT part of the corruption doesn't get the coverage it needs....THEN I'll be REALLY worried.

It won't help to get the BFEE out of power if the people pulling their strings can still control the elections.

Once we have REAL elections again, the people of this country will eelct officials who will straighten out the media problem.

Even our own AngryWhiteDemocrat is running for the House of Reps. We'll have to encourage more like him to run, and we'll get the country back on track -- back to the America our forefathers died for.

:kick: BIG :kick::kick::kick::kick: TO THE TOP!!
