Everyone needs to watch Meet the Press at 10am EDT
Former Ambassador Joseph Wilson will be on talking about his new book.

I just finished "Worse than Watergate" by John Dean last night. I am going to buy Wilson's book pronto.

5. It's Joe Wilson Week! Mustsee TV
C-Span announced he'll be on Washington Journal on Thursday. I think Tweety announced he'll be on Harball on Monday and I'm sure he'll also pop on with Charlie Rose and with Wolfie on CNN. I'm looking forward to him re-shining the light on this scandal that could be this regime's ultimate Watergate.

I'll be interested in how this regime goes after him. They threw all their big guns at him the first time he spoke out, what do they have to smear him this time? I can't see them being anywhere near effective considering the non-stop drip-drip-drip (and can I now use this term????) of bad news and scandals coming out of this regime. They've got to refute these torture pictures, the dying goes on and people can only ignore reality for so long.

Rock on, Joe!!! This man is a true national hero.

6. Hey doni
How was Dean's book?

Saw him on Nightline the other night and he said that any of 11? things/scandals could take off like wildfire.

20. John Dean's book is a must
Many of the scandals that will explode this summer are explained. Most involve Cheney.

7. Anybody watching Annan on right now? Multinational force
to ensure security? What does that mean? He sounded pretty noncommittal: yes the force should be there, is part of the new resolution, but he cannot say if Germany, France and others would join the force.
Do you think that the US has the dirt on Annan and other UN members with the Oil for Food program and is forcing them to accept their terms in this situation?

29. That was the idea - LOL, came up with it after reading the thread
on the Traditional Values poll on same-sex marriage that got DU'd. Just had to do it. Of course all I have is Paint, so I can't do any remotely professional graphics, but I thought it got my point across.

9. Questions about WMD: too short a time for UN inspectors,
the lack of evidence up to that moment was not a confirmation that the WMD existed or not? Could he be more vague?
Russert read Bush* statement calling the UN irrelevant.
Bush needs to get together with Russia, France and Germany to pull them in...

10. Reading Safire's column talking about the Oil-for-Food program
Annan's son Kojo on the payroll of one of the companies getting contracts.
Annan says he started working for the company in 95 then he was a consultant up to 98 and he did not have anything with the contracts.

11. To hear that was extremely disappointing to me.
It makes it seem as if there are no legitimate politicians out there. They're all just looking for their chance to rip people off.

14. There are a number of books that must be read.
So far I have finished:

- House of Bush, House of Saud

- The Book on Bush

- Against All Enemies

- The Cheating Culture

- The Lies of George Bush

- Fraud, The Strategy Behind the Bush Lies and Why the Media Didn't Tell You.

- Wealth and Democracy

- Big Lies

- American Dynasty

Wilson's book is coming...

The Working Poor awaits its turn

Some many books, so many words and yet the public is misinformed,uninformed and still supporting a sham.

15. He said Condi lied. I hope this word is going to be used in
conjunction with every misadministration statement (which we know is always a lie).

24. Wilson was FANTASTIC
If this is what he will be like all week on other shows, I can't wait.
Rove must be practicing his "frog marching" at this moment. Wilson said about his comment that Cheney was a "lying S.O.B." that "it was one of the milder comments about Cheney". That the media is terrified to publish critical stories about Bush, they get "phone calls" (threats).
