Silence is Consent

If you don't speak up you accept what is happening. This site was born out of the mainstream media's inability to cover the news. I am just an American cititzen trying to spread the word in the era of FCC consolidation, post 9/11 Patriot Act hysteria, hackable voting machines and war without end. I rant and post news items I perceive to be relevant to our current situation.

All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.
- Thomas Jefferson

More on WMD, White House 'distorted' Iraq threat. Here is the link to the report mentioned in the article. It's running very slow right now.
The report says administration officials misrepresented the threat in three ways.

They presented nuclear, biological and chemical weapons as a single WMD threat, lumping together the high likelihood that Iraq had chemical weapons with the possibility that it had nuclear weapons, a claim for which there was no serious evidence. The administration also insisted without evidence that Saddam Hussein, the former Iraqi leader, would give WMD to terrorists.

Finally, officials misused intelligence in many ways. "These include the wholesale dropping of caveats, probabilities and expressions of uncertainty present in intelligence assessments from public statements," it says.
If there are no WMD this makes sense, U.S. Withdraws a Team of Weapons Hunters From Iraq.

I'll steal from Buzzflash: Bush lied, our soldiers die! U.S. Helicopter Crashes in Iraq, 9 Killed. Crash? Let's see how long it takes for the headline to change from "crash" to "shot down".

See 'ya Colin, He won the battles, but lost the wars.
