Dan Froomkin Says Goodbye
(26 Jun 2009)
From the WaPo:
". . . When I look back on the Bush years, I think of the lies. There were so many. Lies about the war and lies to cover up the lies about the war. Lies about torture and surveillance. Lies about Valerie Plame. Vice President Dick Cheney's lies, criminally prosecutable but for his chief of staff Scooter Libby's lies. I also think about the extraordinary and fundamentally cancerous expansion of executive power that led to violations of our laws and our principles. . . ."

POLITICS-US: Obamas Right Turn
Analysis by William Fisher*
NEW YORK, Jun 22 (IPS) - Human rights and open government advocates were heartened by President Barack Obamas pledge during his first week in office to create "an unprecedented level of openness in government" and "establish a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration".
But now, well into Obamas second 100 days in office, many are expressing outrage and disappointment that many of the presidents decisions have f...

And thank you for the recent outpouring of support. It was extraordinarily uplifting, and I'm deeply grateful. If I ever had any doubt, your words have further inspired me to continue doing acco...

The only true nonpartisan fight left in the United States
(26 May 2009)
We are told by many Democrats that the era of partisanship is over. And in this spirit we are told, is that any movement of holding the previous administration accountable for crimes against the Constitution and crimes against the laws of this country is a partisan witch hunt we should not seek because the country needs to move forward and fix the problems the American people would like them to fix. And in doing things this way, the Obama administration is being a presidency for all the people o...

May Posterity Forget You Were Our Countrymen
By Lance Fairchok
American Thinker
There is something about D.C. that saps the will and dulls the intellect of conservatives. Prolonged exposure makes them fretful and risk-averse, even timid with controversial issues. Rather than standing on the fundamental values that define American conservativism such as fiscal restraint, limited government, low taxes and free...

Nothing like seeing Bush's face while Colbert made him and the
republican party look as stupid as they actually are.
Funniest part is? Conservatards actually think this guy is
conservative.

Vice: The Dispiriting Legacy of Dick Cheney
By Stephen Holmes
This article appeared in the June 15, 2009 edition of The Nation.
May 27, 2009
Having catapulted himself back into the national spotlight as "the highest-profile critic of the new administration," in the words of the New York Times, Dick Cheney has also invited us, inadvertently, to revisit his dispiriting legacy. Along with his support of cruel interrogations, Cheney's everyday resort to stealth and subterfuge during his eight-year t...

Torture Fallout: Release Your Testimony About My Wife, Dick Cheney by Joe Wilson
The Daily Beast
Former Vice President Dick Cheneys reemergence on the political stage after his ignominious departure on Inauguration Day, eschewing the traditional handshake with his successor and the new president, is nothing if not ironic. The most secretive individual in American politics is now calling for the selective release of documents that remain classified in one of his own files marked Detainees. We...
