I thought that when one works for an agency like the CIA...as a 'spy', then the 'spy' should NEVER have to think about/worry about being outed by anyone in and around the Oval Office?
So...what's up with this Scooter Libby-Karl Rove-Robert Novak-
Valerie Plame thingy?

FINALLY "tens of thousands turned out in Washington DC today to protest the war in Iraq "even Jane Fonda who has been silent for so long she said "so as not to distract from the issue" "Silence is no longer an option," is what she said. I say its about time Americans mobilized. .Are you willing to protest in the next protect march if there is one near your home?

Will try to assassinate Hilary and Obama prior to the election?

I am by no means condoning or advocating such action, I just can't help but wonder how far someone is willing to go to ensure neither a woman or a black man is elected President of the United States.

Addictions for sure. But what about the innocents affected by
those with addictions? Partners, children? What about those with serious emotional problems who can't help themselves?
Do you know we pay trillions of dollars to help the underpriviledged
in this country, only to have the people who are supposed to help them leave them out on the streets to die? Because they take a personal dislike to someone or have a "bad hair" day? And they don't even care?
Shouldn't Government set the example? Instead of justifying negligence by complaining about paperwork and being
back-logged?
I'm not trying to kill them like they're killing us. It's the stinking attitude we have to deal with that needs confrontation. And if they make a mistake, it needs to be corrected.
Stand up! Get organized. Use confrontation, but be reasonable and fair.

about time huh?
Convinced this is their moment, tens of thousands marched Saturday in an anti-war demonstration linking military families, ordinary people and an icon of the Vietnam protest movement in a spirited call to get out of Iraq.

Celebrities, a half-dozen lawmakers and protesters from distant states rallied in the capital under a sunny sky, seizing an opportunity to press their cause with a Congress restive on the war and a country that has turned against the conflict.

Marching with them was Jane Fonda, in what she said was her first anti-war demonstration in 34 years.

"Silence is no longer an option," Fonda said to cheers from the stage on the National Mall. The actress once derided as "Hanoi Jane" by conservatives for her stance on Vietnam said she had held back from activism so as not to be a distraction for the Iraq anti-war movement, but needed to speak out now.

Today, 10,000 people marched in one of the biggest protests against war since Vietnam.

People from all walks of life were there; military families, polititians, even Jane Fonda who protested against the war in Vietnam.

What is your opinion, tell me why you have that opinion.

*Something to remember-This country is built on the foundation that our government is to act "of the people, by the people and for the people".*

Everybody talks about over 3000 American deaths, but nobody says anything about over 300 000 dead Iraqis, most of them women and children. Why???

FROM THE PROTEST RALLY IN DC TODAY........

At the rally, 12-year-old Moriah Arnold stood on her toes to reach the microphone and tell the crowd: "Now we know our leaders either lied to us or hid the truth. Because of our actions, the rest of the world sees us as a bully and a liar."

The sixth-grader from Harvard, Mass., organized a petition drive at her school against the war that has killed more than 3,000 U.S. service-members, including seven whose deaths were reported Saturday.

The United States is the most powerful military in the world and has the resourses to end these attacks, failed to do so. Our battle plan during major combat was perfect and well planned out. What has happen to that mind- set. Why is the U.S.A. fighting another limited war.

Why are they saying that there were less then 100,000 people at the anti-war protest today? I was there (Washington, DC, national mall). Two hours after I started marching there were still people starting. The National Mall was FULL of people. The parade streched for miles. Don't tell me there was less then 100,000 people there. There was at least 250,000.
