2. This is GREAT! I'm grinning from ear to ear ...

Palast is the EPITOME of the investigative journalist, something we have been SORELY lacking in this country since 2000. As a wannabe Woodward/Bernstein (my dream career was investigative reporter), I am THRILLED to hear this!

4. Voter Caging is a Crime.

Why hasn't Griffen been charged with this?

9. yeah and this is the same

Conyers who blabbed about impeachment as well and we all see how he puts his money where his mouth is.

Sorry...don't hold your breath for Conyers to do anything about anything. He talks a good line and then disappears into a cloud.
