    The whole Bush family are all criminals. I saw an old article about how George Bush Senior's grandaddy was involved in running clipper ships to and from China and made lots of $$ from the drug trade at that time. Not surprised of course.

    Maybe someday the real histories about stuff will be told, like who really did 9/11 and how corrupt the Bush regime (and those behind them) really are.

      I only have one reservation about this story; the commie bating tone. The KGB has done horrific things but so has our side. When I saw the interview on Larry last week of Tenet, I almost piked when he defended torture. And what is amazing is that we pretend it's not torture while denying that we kill at all.

      It is sad there is no such book written about the CIA, that has been as judgmental of tactics.

        What bothered me about the article was the part about having a truth committee.

        A body that determines what is and is not true? I can't put my finger on it, but that idea in itself makes me uncomfortable. Would there be one "truth committee", or several throughout the country? And suppose you are called to testify at one of these committees and they don't believe you? What powers would they have to use against you that a regular court doesn't have? A committee chosen by who? If these so-called conspiracies are so powerful, what is to stop them from just finding a way to rig these "truth committees" as they have supposedly already wield so much power over such entities as the White House and the CIA?

            Neo-Cons gorge on senseless death. the communists try to have some kind of justification for it at least. That makes them number 2 on the list of evil types. Number 1 is Neo-Cons, which is just the modern American vernacular translation of Nazis.

                The Pacelek fool is an obvious conspirist and bread and butter idiot. Along the typical line of the Populist Hate mongers the story (and the book I suspect) is a concoction of blathersmite, poppycock and heresay. The poor souls who feed off this crap; one sensational screedo at a time, are all objects of my pity. Their rabid hate, aggrandizing aggenda and malcontent meddling set new lows for discussion.

                It is a blackeye to this site that this trash even is allowed to roost here. It is a even greater shame that it finds a home in the peculiar pea brains who infect this site.

                This unsubstantiated crap, much like the articles preceeding it, is an insult to investigative journalists everywhere.

                Get real ya sad little losers.

                  Where is this Populist party head quarters?

                  Where are it's cadidates on the local and National Scene?

                  I put to you this is a sad little creation of an obvious twisted malcontent mind; headquartered in the troubled cranial region of some dejected liberal malcontent.

                  Hey Paxil, Prozac or Zanex anyone?

                  I give these a read for the benefit of the doubt...now on this steaming crap is on auto flush.
