Closing segment:
John Conyers, Jr.: I can't tell you how many people keep coming up to me, saying that they heard something on BuzzFlash. And I just ran into a young fellow visiting the Capitol last weekend, and he said, "Congressman, I'm from your district in a small city in your city. And we're right now, we've got your book, Ohio – The Ohio Election; What Went Wrong – and it is really great reading."
And I was really so pleased because many of the people that have heard about that book, have heard about it through the great work that you're doing in speaking truth to the reality of our times. We've got some big problems and they won't be solved by pretending they don't exist or pretending that the war was started for some very high and noble reason. We have a lot of people that still believe that Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden had somehow been working together, when everything that we now know shows that that was not the case at all.
So I thank you and BuzzFlash, and all the people that are listening and reading with us, and commenting with us, as we go through this really great American experiment of democracy. Can it work? Can we hold our elected officials and the decision-makers that operate for 290 million people – can we hold them accountable for the acts that they do, and make sure that they own up to what they're doing, and that we know what it is they're doing?
Peace. www.missionnotaccomplished.us - Please, everyone, don't stop at 500,000 signatures; don't stop at 10,000,000 signatures; don't stop until Bush and the neoconsters are indicted and prosecuted for their heinous crimes against humanity and our Constitution.
