GOP peep show: Presto Chango, gotta get another sleeve

Why is the focus of the nation being drawn to the Republican Congressman's sex story, three (now some say 5) years after the GOP leadership was informed of it?
Who in the Ashcroft and Gonzales' office of the Attorney General told the FBI to stand down from investigating the charges?
In contrast, why was Rep. Jefferson's office searched so readily when this case of pedophilia was being buried?
Was the media told of this story at the proper time for the GOP to flip the blame to Democrats (... how do they do it? The Slimy Newt has already flipped it with great echo-chamber repetition on NPR.) in order to:

-draw your attention away from what Congress did to us in the last days before they adjourned to politik? Burning the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments?

-Or to draw your eyes away from the NIE? it documenting how drastically terrorism has been increased because of Bush's invasion of Iraq?

-or to draw your eyes away from the ever-escalating carnage in Bush's War? Or the ever-increasing financial burden, so far, half a TRillion, on the credit card, estimated at 2 Billion a week, added to your taxes?

-or to draw your eyes away from the released e-mail document trail that showed the slimy K Street lobbyist Jack Abramoff was getting all kinds of personal attention with his direct White House access? (The living master of American journalism, Bill Moyer detailed the history of the story this week on PBS, I suggest you find it and watch it online.)

-Or, to draw your eyes away from the real monster in the closet: 7-10 (2001), the day Condi Rice was told by both the CIA and the FBI that BinLaden was a flashing red light siren wailing 10 on a terror scale of 1 to 10.

Remember Paul O'Neill saying no one in the administration wanted to talk about terrorism before 9-11?

Remember the story about Richard Clarke so panicked by what he knew that he was described as having his hair on fire and no one paid him any attention?

The news that confirmed what I already knew because I watched her "moment of truth" on C-SPAN, that Condi was lying when the 9-11 Commission caught her red-handed evasion about the importance super secret Presidential Daily Briefing, when they asked her for "only" the title of the document.

This Mayberry Mafia had eight months to protect us from a terrorist attack on U.S. soil, and failed.

After 7-10, Condi had 2 months to protect us from a terrorist attack on U.S. soil, and ignored it.

Dubya, of course was taking the longest Presidential vacation in history, cutting cedar scrub and fishing in his personal pond for what he originally described as big mouth perch. duh.

Only Richard Clarke ever apologized for having failed us, and he did so right away, like anyone with manners and proportion would do. Oh, let me add Clinton's recent admission that At Least He Tried, Not Like Some.

And this Mayberry Mafia has had six years to find Bin Laden. They even let him go, and then Dubya had the termerity to say I Don't Pay Much Attention To Finding Him. They have had all the information that the now retired President Clinton had, added to the information they have gathered with their unlimited methods and increased budget during the past 6 years, but haven't got Bin Laden yet.

Some return on the investment you made in this group of shysters.


9-11 was the natural result of misleadership on 7-10.

They weren't protecting you, for 8 months they put terrorism on the back burner. They still aren't protecting you. They are, however feeding their cronies.

They are pulling apart your Bill of Rights, but what company is in charge of the ports? what company is in charge of Norad software?
They are declaring war against international and national law, but what company is building the 2 billion dollar fence.
They are subverting the Constitution but what company counts our votes?
You think the economy is okay because gas prices are down, but compared to 2000, where are gas prices? Look it up yourself if you don't believe me. And what companies met with that first Cheney energy task force?
The proof of the pudding is under the crust.
They are hiding information and rewriting history as fast as they can.

And grabbing your attention from the world changing revolution they are fomenting, by giving you a sex peep show.
