You have now proven that you aren't even paying attention.
The link you posted is summed up by the first line in the news article which says:
A devastating six hours of testimony by tenured State Department officials turns into a night of back-burner media status for a historic day on Capitol Hill.
As if an episode of the Twilight-Zone came to fruition however, after a day on Capitol Hill that could go down in the annals as one that may change the course of political history in the United States forever and possibly effect the entire world on a profound level, the entire media in the United States decided to instead pretend as if a day-old kidnapping rescue story and the result of a murder trial were much more important to cover.The very point of the article how much content and scandal were in the testimony and yet the mainstream media is ignoring it as if there wasn't.
yes, that's the point of this thread that apparently you are missing
this honestly seems to pale in comparison to the crimes of the recession (bankster fraud, govt supported (fraud in itself),
Then why aren't you calling for Chris Dodd and Barney Frank and Bill Clinton and all the Wall Street bankers in Obama's cabinet to be wearing orange jump suits in an 8x8 cell?
Because you weren't paying attention to the details of that one either if you think it's Bush's fault.
Bush administration using lies and false evidence to invade countries causing hundreds of thousands of deaths, not just four.
We have no perspective when it comes to justice anymore.
Rather hypocritical to blame Bush for this since
everyone on Capitol Hill had the same information and voted for the action. I supported taking Saddam out completely, which was the
only thing I agreed with Bush on for 8 years.
If you think it was about Iraq alone, that would be a mistake. It was about taking out Saddam and then isolating Iran with fronts on both of it's borders, while cutting them off from Syria. The whole mess is about protecting the royal family of Saud.
But unlike the current occupant of the White House, Bush told everyone what he was going to do, allowed the political process and a vote from both Houses of Congress, and then did
exactly what he said.
Got to respect an honest man even if you don't like what he does.
