"Another Bush Fascist Sent Packing" (look who's cited in this article)


Another Bush Fascist Sent Packing
By NICANOR LEON COTAYO

The Bush administration was dealt another hard blow with the recent resignation of Paul Wolfowitz as president of the World Bank.

With Wolfowitz’s fall, four of the closest associates of the President have been wrapped in controversy.

Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld resigned after sharp criticism about his handling of the war in Iraq. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales faces an ongoing scandal over the firing of eight federal prosecutors and Vice President Richard Cheney is continually hounded by his business dealings.

Who is Paul Wolfowitz? He is a formidable member of the ultra-rightwing team that governs in Washington. His background confirms this.

<snip>

William Rivers Pitt, author of the books War on Iraq and The Greatest Sedition in Silence, revealed that Paul Wolfowitz was one of those who took part in a conspiracy destined to invade and occupy Iraq.

On September 20, 2002, Rivers Pitt published an article in which he said that beginning in 1997, a group operated to push for a war against Iraq. Among its members were Richard Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz.

2. I now some people will rib the guy, but Pitt does a good job at getting
to the truth. I really think it makes a difference in the fight against the BFEE. Looks like they are falling, house of cards coming down now? Seams finally unraveling?

Let us hope.

4. Way Back Then Was When I STARTED Trying To Make Others See
what was coming! Problem is... NOBODY was listening. I can recall actually writing to him saying that I was NO Bush supporter but even I needed further verification of his facts.

He sent them to me and I was astonished. I printed it out then and showed it to so many people and they thought I was NUTS! Some even told me I was far too obsessed with "my politics" and needed to "tone it down some!" One of those people was my very own sister!

Well, now here we are... most of THOSE people don't even recall my talking about it!

It's so sad and it's so FRUSTRATING!

6. it's an easy thing
to say that things will work out, but those of us old enough to remember feeling cheated by nixon's pardon will have to see the perp walk, have to see the * junta wearing orange jumpsuits before we believe a word of it.
