"Including me. The difference is after I began to learn about some of that intelligence I went down to the Senate floor and I said 'my vote was wrong.'"

Army general says Rumsfeld refused to plan for post-war Iraq
Long before the United States invaded Iraq in 2003, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld forbade military strategists to develop plans for securing a post-war Iraq, the retiring commander of the Army Transportation Corps said Thursday. In fact, said Brig. Gen. Mark Scheid, Rumsfeld said "he would fire the next person" who talked about the need for a post-war plan.

Cheney’s Power No Longer Goes Unquestioned
From those first moments five years ago when Secret Service agents burst into Vice President Dick Cheney’s office on Sept. 11, lifted him off his feet and propelled him to the underground Presidential Emergency Operations Center, the man who had returned to Washington that year to remake the powers of the presidency seemed unstoppable.

Robert Scheer: Gaping Holes in the 9/11 Narrative
There is glaring evidence that the latter was the case. The 9/11 Commission report contains a disclaimer box on page 146, in which it is stated that the report’s account of what happened on 9/11 was in considerable measure based on what those key witnesses allegedly told interrogators, and that the commissioners were not allowed to meet the witnesses or their interrogators.

The heartbreaking words of a grieving father who watched the slow, painful death of his Ground Zero hero son captivated yesterday's congressional hearing to probe the government's response to health risks after 9/11….. Then Joseph Zadroga, like many others who spoke yesterday at the day-long special hearing in Manhattan, blasted Christie Whitman, then-head of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, for falsely reassuring people like his son that the air around Ground Zero was safe. …..
"I think she should go to jail," Zadroga said.

Face up to the Criticism!:
I am the daughter of the former president of the Central Council of Jews in Germany Heinz Galinski, who was also a survivor of the Nazi concentration camps, I have felt it my duty to join the European Jews for a Just Peace.

Dissatisfied with Congress, voters would probably hang a "Help Wanted" sign on the U.S. Capitol if given the chance.
