So, after Tuesday, what misadministration mysteries are you most
curious about that we may finally get the scoop on? Darth Cheney's energy task force attendees and notes? (I have to admit, THAT one really picques my curiosity)....part two of the Iraq report (Pat Roberts, are you ready to present the report)? What do you think?

1. The truth
is elusive and dearly guarded by those who fear it most.

2. Energy task force notes
they will show the invasion was planned before 9-11, and maybe suggest the need for a precipitating event.

want to bet they are going to disappear?

23. The war was preordained...
Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz sent Clinton a letter on 1998 asking him to militarily oust Saddam. These supremecist idealogues wanted a new Pearl harbor attack to unite the country and pull out their favorite trick...Say they will do one thing and then just do whatever they want. The money machine thrives on war. War necessitates the gov borrowing lots of cash ($6,300 per second in Iraq) which, since the treasonous and unpatriotic federal reserve act of 1913, the gov must pay the bankers interset on the money they ment. If we don't blow stuff up then we wouldn't have no-bid contracts to halliburton for 7 billion; and we can't have that.

3. The info on the run-up to war that's been denied is one for me, as
is all the fraud, waste, and abuse that we're not hearing about in Iraq, and who's benefitted/screwed the US out of billions.

24. what about
the fact that nearly one of every 25 weapons the US military bought for Iraqi security forces is missing? That is just one example of some expensive shit we earmarked for the 'new democracy' of Iraq and some extremists stole it. Or what about Ziad Cattan, in charge of military procurement, when the ministry of defense spent $1.2 Billion, of which Allawi estimates $800 million was stolen. With the $400+ Billion that the mess-o-potamia fiasco is costing us it really hurts to think where all of that enourmous sum has gone. What hurts worse is to think of all the good things it could have done instead.

5. Everything with Jack Abramoff's name on it
Not only will it be revealing, but every document revealed will be a blow to the solar plexus of the GOP.

12. That's opening the books on IranContra and BCCI. Won't happen without
a Dem president determined to open those books.

8. Those two are good ones.
The Anthrax investigation, a real audit of the war on terra (how much money is really missing- it will be stunning), the war crimes of GWB and co., and so many more, a real investigation of Katrina, a real investigation of election frauds, ...

10. All of it. Everything.
If it takes two years of solid hearings, complete with subpoenas and sworn oaths, then that's what it takes.

Should the Democrats regain power in Congress, they should use it to tear down the Republican machine, throw the pieces on to a bonfire, and burn. it. down.

Republicans should - must - be thoroughly disgraced, prosecuted, and sentenced for trying to destroy this country. If it doesn't happen between now and '08, they will only re-group and come back to try it again.

Burn. It. All. Down.

14. War in Iraq from it's inception to it's current status
plus signing statements... I don't know that an inquiry can be made about the amount of signing statements and what that means for checking the power of the office, but would like to know...

16. All right you have covered your a** now
I want to know why the warnings were ignored regarding 9-11, the line above is from
the One Percent Doctrine by Ron Suskind, it's a comment Bush made to a CIA briefer who
tried to warn him about 9-11. It's on page 2.

17. I would like to hear from all of the people that have been
gagged. The whistle blowers ( S. Edmonds, K Crowley) and many more, I believe.

18. yes, indeed
the Suskind book recounts how CIA reps actually flew out to Crawford to brief him of the
danger of a terrorist attack, this wasn't just a piece of paper ignored in his briefcase.

There are so many conspiracy-theories surrounding these two issues that I would like to know what is true & what isn't.

22. We already know the truth
We just want the corroborating evidence.

We know Cheney's Energy task force was all about Iraq. We KNOW these bullies knew 911 was their catalyst. We know they knew and did nothing. We just need to prove it.

Even if we win congress, these b**tards will fight like hell to keep their secrets. The new Dem majority will need to be strong. I hope they're up to these criminals!
