[Duchess Note ... Its photos like this that the goddamn US Government, Shrub the Lesser & his corrupt administration (empire) don't want Americans to see. We should see them! To remind us of this illegal occupation of Iraq, which had no WMD or connections to Al-Qaeda. NONE!!!! This administration doesn't give a damn about America's sons and daughters. If Bushie cared he'd attend ALL the funerals of those fallen in combat. He hasn't attended one funeral ... he'd rather be in Crawford, TX fishing for bass. What a moron! Now the government is planning to set up the draft, which will go into effect next year and take all our sons and daughters to fight illegal wars. Oh, don't worry, the government won't draft rich bastards brats, just the poor and middle class. Stop the Bushies from getting elected in November. Come out and vote for Democrats all the way. Take back our country and make it a true democracy.]

Comments From Blog "iddybud" On Saudis, Bushie & 9/11

Regarding Bob Woodward's book about the inner sanctum of the Bush war council, Marie Cocco [link to article listed below] states:

I want more pages, but not from Woodward. Twenty-eight of them, to be exact........after 9/11, we learned of another part of the unspoken pact: We are supposed to avert our eyes from the Saudi nurturing of radical Islamists and the royal family's slush funds for terror. Congressional investigators wanted a hard look and wrote a chapter with their initial findings. The president says we can't see it.

Since when does the President have the uncheckable right to tell the people that they can't see or know anything about these 28 pages? Even the Saudi government long ago asked Bush to declassify the 28 pages and Bush continues to refuse. He obviously has something he needs to keep in the shadows...he can't be proud of whatever lies in those pages. Perhaps the information runs against the interests of the American people. Perhaps it shows allegiance to Saudi Arabia over the United States. After all, we now know that Bush gave his country's trusted secrets to Prince Bandar before his own cabinet members. If this is looked at too closely, I think the President will know he will be (appropriately) impeached. The 28 pages are all about CYA. America is not securely in the hands of the American citizenry where it has always been meant to belong.

[Thanks Jude!]
