- WaterDragon, on 11/13/2007, -11/+935It's too bad there isn't some kind of a Congress, representing all of the people and sworn to uphold the Constitution!
- rhedwolf, on 11/13/2007, -7/+500It's too bad the mainstream media doesn't cover news like this.
- Darkhacker, on 11/13/2007, -7/+159*Fox News Alert* - Treason: Democrats Caught Reading Real Intelligence To Not Attack Iran.
- WiseWeasel, on 11/13/2007, -39/+162Interesting article, but the complete lack of cited sources, and of reputable publisher are worrisome. Some confirmation would be nice...
- SilverStandard, on 11/13/2007, -4/+126Lord Cheney can do no wrong because he is a special creature constituting the fourth branch of government. How dare you question his lordship, for the law flows from his hand!
- Corrosionx, on 11/13/2007, -2/+115YOU'RE A RADICAL!!
- colonels1020, on 11/13/2007, -16/+123fake Intel = AMD?
- billyjack1958, on 11/13/2007, -3/+75Did we read the same article? After reading your comment, I went back to the article and reread it. I saw quoted sources throughout it. I possess two journalism degrees and consider Inter Press Service News Agency a reputable source.
- gmiley, on 11/13/2007, -1/+72What a novel concept...
- Grumps, on 11/13/2007, -3/+72It's too bad all the mainstream media is own by the billionaires who controls our government.
- senorcool, on 11/12/2007, -9/+74Off with his head!
- thebellmaster1x, on 11/12/2007, -2/+60It's too bad there isn't some sort of executive office that includes an oath demanding that its sole responsibility be to defend the Constitution.
- an10ae, on 11/12/2007, -3/+53This is a well known wire service, it is the source and it will never be cited in the U.S. because no one in the media will even attempt to report or try and confirm the story.

- gmiley, on 11/12/2007, -2/+45... Do not mistake the blood-lust of our corrupt leadership for the sentiment of our entire nation. You are severely confused about this situation if you think Americans, in general, are the ones "high on war fever".
- ZenMojo, on 11/12/2007, -0/+39If this is true, then he HAS to be impeached. We can't let this ***** hold power anymore.
- Corrosionx, on 11/12/2007, -2/+35If anyone had the balls to impeach him, they could have done that years ago. Do you think maybe all the phone spying collected some useful blackmail material?
- x083, on 11/13/2007, -2/+33repeal the federal reserve act of 1913... this is their catalyst that gives them control of all congressmen and senators. they are all bought with money stolen from the people through inflation, and then large government war contracts, then kick backs, then bribes... This country is headed for another Civil War
- spyd3rweb, on 11/13/2007, -5/+36Impeached Yet?
- synthpop, on 11/12/2007, -3/+33read first.
Cheney is not making fake intel this time (like he did with Iraq), he's blocking real intel that says Iran is not such a big threat. For over a year Darth Cheney has been desperately seeking anyone in the intelligence community to sign off on his lunatic "bomb Iran" scheme, but everyone is refusing. Can you blame them? Why would anyone agree to rubber-stamp some bat-***** crazy Neocon lies that are going to start World War III? So what now? He's gonna keep blocking the real intel until someone in the CIA delivers the goods, if no one delivers then Cheney will go for "plan B" and forge some documents (not the first time) - whiteninja, on 11/13/2007, -1/+31Well to be fair, our elections, and candidates aren't exactly what one would call "real"...Think of it as... Pro Wrestling.
- Grumps, on 11/13/2007, -3/+33Its not his first time and he still gets away with it. No wander all these politician would lie about anything to get elected.
- WiseWeasel, on 11/12/2007, -3/+30Actually, you're right, they did provide some names. My bad. On first read, I missed the cited names for some reason, and I had never heard of this wire service, so I was skeptical. Digg me down.
- Leomarth, on 11/13/2007, -2/+28A one act play, by me.
Cheney enters, stage left
"I find your lack of faith disturbing." while curling fingers.
Curtain closes. - offspring06, on 11/12/2007, -1/+26They are news agency. They have more credibility than Fox News.
- GeneralFault, on 11/12/2007, -1/+26Good to see an open mind willing to be convinced by reasonable argument and evidence here.
- chukd, on 11/12/2007, -4/+28You are missing the point of the current Congress. The Dems are letting the current administration dig a big hole so it is easier to elect a Democratic President in 2008. The problem is that we have the Rep. that want to attack everyone. The Dems in Congress are following the leadership, telling them to vote for this stuff so the Dems look good in 2008. This is the reason why Washington warned us of a party system when he left the office of the President. The current leadership in both the executive and legislative branches are letting this country go down a road that will be near impossible to recover from.
- EarlOfLade, on 11/14/2007, -10/+30The American people love being lied to. They go out and buy more ***** with money they don't have with credit cards they can't pay for before watching more American idol and pray for grandma's cancer that they can not get treated because it would cost them $300000 they don't have and with no insurance, it's game over for grandma, just skydaddy left and he never do anything..
Then they go out and buy a gun so they can protect their family against burglars while skipping the alarm system because they can't afford it. and at this point the average American has forgotten all about Iraq and Iran and war, which will change for a week or two while they bury the neighbors son who was killed outside Fallujah, a name they have heard but which they have no clue were is situated. When it dies down, they will go back watching their stupid prime time series and be disgusted over homosexuals again.
USA must have the dumbest citizen of any first world country, you are all being robbed and you can't drop your pants fast enough in order to be ass raped too and you are all loving it! Talk about brainwashed sheeple - offspring06, on 11/12/2007, -2/+22Americans may not be for war but your politicians are and they are your representatives.
- spucky, on 11/12/2007, -0/+20Don't worry. If he is in the US, he is not a *free* radical.
- spyd3rweb, on 11/12/2007, -0/+19Thats sounds more like rothschild or rockefeller.
- GeneralFault, on 11/12/2007, -1/+20But lets face it, neither of them have as much evil as a Neo-con has in his or her little finger, or as much as Cheney has in a single hair.
- empraptor, on 11/12/2007, -0/+18More like our ruling class, at this point. Who among them really act in accordance with the Constitution? Who among them is acting as our voice in the government rather than for their cronies and big corporations? All any of them care about is how they'll win the next election and how much money they can make on the side for all their friends.
There needs to be more parties and more candidates for office of every level so there's higher risk of incumbents getting voted off. We need to start new parties - and they need to start at local level so a large queue of experienced politicians can continually take bites out of Washington. If we do that in a few decades maybe we'll have some semblance of representation in Washington. - stubear, on 11/12/2007, -0/+18@offspring06: They are our representatives but they are failing to act on the will of the people and are just as culpable as the President as far as I am concerned.
- djpants428, on 11/12/2007, -0/+18IPS is basically like the AP. They are basically an international reputable source.
- empraptor, on 11/12/2007, -0/+17How about "TREASON! LOCK 'EM AWAY!"
Not going to happen, but I'd personally like to see them get life sentences. Make them serve as examples.
Though now that I think about it isn't GWB all for the death sentence? - AmonAmarth, on 11/12/2007, -4/+21It's time to get out guys.
Our government has been usurped by these insane, money hungry deviants. Flee while you still can. - VitriolAndAngst, on 11/13/2007, -1/+17Wow. Sure is lucky this didn't come out two days ago, when the Democrats decided that doing their job as oversight was going to be too "distracting" from haggling about a farming bill.
- TheReport, on 11/12/2007, -0/+16If you haven't noticed the Democratic Congress we elected last Novemeber isn't doing the job we sent them to do and their approval rating is just as if not lower then the President himself.
- zdiddy85, on 11/12/2007, -6/+21Burn Cheney, burn.
- Balath, on 11/12/2007, -0/+15We're not all like that. I know many that are, it's true, but there are those few and far between that pay attention to world events.
- senorcool, on 11/12/2007, -1/+16dude chill out with the whole democrats vs. republicans thing.
- heystoopid, on 11/13/2007, -5/+19This man and all his evil deeds would make Saddam look like a saint in comparison which means he is a certifiable war criminal for all his misdeeds , so why indeed would he care that he will add another million or so innocent Iranians to his current butchers tally !
- j1ggy, on 11/12/2007, -1/+15In Nazi Germany, we manipulate the truth and take rights away in order to be more 'secure.'
- inactive, on 11/12/2007, -0/+14Is that your idea of defending the Constitution?
- pkonink, on 11/12/2007, -0/+14This is exactly the same behavior that was going on in the lead-up to the Iraqi invasion. Selectively using intelligence and silencing (or attempting to, at any rate) anyone who disagrees with that selectively chosen intelligence.
As someone famous once put it, "There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again." - JHattendorfII, on 11/12/2007, -0/+14since when? i've heard way to much opinion being touted as fact recently.
- consoneo, on 11/12/2007, -0/+13Wasn't there a quote about some guy having a dream where Ted Turner was elected President, but declined the position because he didn't want to lose power?
- Frnnkdlxx, on 11/12/2007, -2/+14I'm in ur alternative media... introducing radically novel conceptz?
