watch CSPAN 2
they just got done with Al Gonzo trying to make the NSA stuff sound legal. Pissed my pants laughing because the Georgetown kids were not having it. Some people looked like they were going to throw up while Gonzo talked with all most a smile coming out. Some students had their backs turned and some were dressed in black with a big sign that i could not read.
After Gonzo left, they have a panel of well educated legal and constitutional scholars talking about his ideas. And what does the first person say, that bush has no legal authority to do this and that it is a crime and totally blew Gonzo's "facts" out of the water. Oh i feel like i am watching a big blockbuster hahaha

8. I got the links to these maps from another thread... the one on the
Quakers and why the admin duznt like them.... one was the permanent base map... the other the major oil reserves.... I used the tools in Adobe PDF viewer to clip a section from one.... the other was already a jpeg... then I joined them in paint by copying and pasting.... then resized it with a graphics program.... I think it paints a realistic picture of the fact that Iraq's oil infrastructure is their greatest asset according to some people.

9. thanks - I thought it was one map
I didn't realize it was two maps, it looked like the border between Iraq and Iran, I couldn't figure out the Iran part, now I see it's two maps of Iraq.

2. This guy up is good...
David Cole...saying that if you can't argue the law and you can't argue the facts, then you turn it into a political issue which is what they're doing... He's saying it won't work because the law is so strong in this case...
