Thank you, thank you!!!!! You are the Edward R. Murrow and the George Seldes of our generation. It is welcomed and refreshing to see that there is still some glimmer of independant journalistic integrity left in this country. God save us, as we surely need devine salvation at this moment. I hope that one day these criminals will be held to account!!

If there were any justice in the world, we'd see Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush, et al. doing the perp walk as they were being led away to their waiting cells. Their punishment would include the playing of an endless loop of this commentary to ensure that they, for once, hear the truth about what they've done to this country and the world ....

With everyone else. Thank you, Thank you!!!!! Would that this would air in every congressional ear, and the ears of all Americans. The tiniest bit of homework will verify your words and your anger--we all join. From the inception of PNAC in 1992 by Dick Chency, forward---imperial intent is painfully visible. The American People, WE THE PEOPLE need to wake up and insist upon accountability---Constitutional Accountability for the long list of violations that have rendered America really vulnerable---to the likes of Bush et. al. in the present and the future. Congress wake up and do your duty!!!!!!!!! We all know the Truth, WE have done our homework, the work of being informed citizens who MUST KEEP OUR REPUBLIC. The greatest Constitutional Test since the Civil War IS NOW! Finish the job Keith Oberman, . . . the rest of the story--from PNAC through 9/11 to Peak Oil; be the reporter who goes down in history who speaks Truth to Power and Public, and catalyzes the restoration of the honor our nation. Thank you for the courage, the anger, the voice that speaks for at least 70% of this nation. Concord Bridge 2008 is the Stand of our Day--- you are our Paul Revere riding through out the 'all the fruited plain, sounding the alarm in the 21st Century. Thank You! Gloria P. Firmage, a Mormon Grandmother in Utah . . . my prayer-- "Protect our children and grandchildren--- the future of their lives is in our hands.

Notice how this war criminal uses the phrases "I feel like this, I believe that, I feel that" thereby being not accountable to his flat out lies about nonexistent WMDs in Iraq, nonexistent Al Qaeda Iraq link, uranium procurement from Niger based on forged documents, UAVs that couldn't possibly be used against us, and on and on. He is a war criminal, the worst mass murderer in the history of our nation and the worst traitor that has ever been within a hundred miles of the white house that he now infest. If justice were done he would be impeached, convicted, imprisoned, then extradited to the Hague for war crimes trials at which any elementary schooler could get him convicted of his indescribable crimes.

Something has gone terribly

Something has gone terribly wrong. We had, not so many years ago, a president who was literally senile. He used that fact in his defense against his own involvement in Iran/Contra, and everyone agreed to that surface truth.How could they not? He is now enshrined by the dim bulbs of our nation as The Great Communicator. Now, we have someone's sociopathic dry alcoholic kid in the White House. This man can be told off immaculately every night, and yet, with the next Terror Event, he will resume center stage, maybe to the point of lauching an air campaign against Iran. Bet that NBC will immediately stand up and salute--again. Fight back then, Keith.

In equal measure, now that a new Republican (neocon) is in the race for President, John McCain looks more and more like John McBush. What deeply troubles me is that John is receiving the same kind of glib and hands-off network treatment as George did during his tragic presidency. It's a guess but, are the major television networks and news agencies making McCain, as MSNBC has suggested, teflon John? Are the network CEOs and owners in reality censoring most negative criticism of McCain? It looks to this writer that Mr. McCain is getting a "free ride" as he campaigns. Are the television owners, in fact, Republicans, themselves? The Republican candidate stands four-square for the very old politics, as well as for the new robber barons of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
