Does anyone know what new Documents Conyers has?

[cal04]

Conyers office has revealed that they will introduce new documents that corroborate the Downing Street Memo at the hearings June 16.

“We expect to release new documents that corroborate the Downing Street memo," a Judiciary aide, speaking on condition of anonymity, told RAW STORY Thursday afternoon. "None of the documents are as earth-shattering as the Downing Street minutes but all of them corroborate the accuracy of what it says.”

Among those scheduled to testify are Joe Wilson, former ambassador and weapons of mass destruction expert; Ray McGovern, a 27-year CIA analyst, used to do presidential daily briefings for Ronald Reagan; Cindy Sheehan, a mother who lost her son in Iraq combat; and John Bonifaz, the Boston constitutional lawyer who has called for a resolution of inquiry into what he sees as impeachable offenses in the president's false pretenses for war.

We've achieved 82 % of our 500,000 goal (414,617)!

I think this is it folks. It feels like the gigantic snowball has hit the top of the hill.

7. The Plame outing was an effort to stop discovery of NO WMD's

that was the project she was working on for the CIA.. and she had the best contacts to prove there were none... that bought them some time to contenue the lie.

8. I wonder if one of them isn't referred to in this Sunday Times article

RAF bombing raids tried to goad Saddam into war

THE RAF and US aircraft doubled the rate at which they were dropping bombs on Iraq in 2002 in an attempt to provoke Saddam Hussein into giving the allies an excuse for war, new evidence has shown.

...

The new information, obtained by the Liberal Democrats, shows that the allies dropped twice as many bombs on Iraq in the second half of 2002 as they did during the whole of 2001, and that the RAF increased their attacks even more quickly than the Americans did.

...

The Ministry of Defence figures, provided in response to a question from Sir Menzies Campbell, the Liberal Democrat foreign affairs spokesman, show that despite the lack of an Iraqi reaction, the air war began anyway in September with a 100-plane raid.

If Congressman Conyers doesn't have a copy of this MoD information, he should get one. I can't think the British LibDems would be opposed to sharing.

9. Ah yes, Joe Wilson...

who better to hit them with, my dear! The ones who outed his lovely wife and put people in danger. The very one who knew all about the WMS's, everywhere. Yellow cake, the forged documents - Bolton is the key. His trip to the UK, good timing Bolton. This should get interesting, FGS - this time we have to win the battle.
