[...] Last week conventional wisdom said that Hayden was chosen as the nominee because Karl Rove wanted a public fight on the NSA. Frank Rich wrote, This being an election year, Karl Rove hopes the hearings can portray Bush opponents as soft on terrorism when they question any national security move. It was this bullying that led so many Democrats to rubber-stamp the Iraq war resolution in the 2002 election season and Mr. Gossâ€™s appointment in the autumn of 2004. [...]

Great [as well as appropriately scathing] Argument, Mr. Rich!! Whilst I’m “Rebuplican” by registry [as though party affiliation means a whit anymore--DIVIDED houses NEVER stand--only fall apart---let those opposed to true Christianity refute that Wisdom[not right-wing "take america back" pat robertson/TBN silliness claptrap---Jude mentions their future anyway]]I respect the man/woman, not the political party…Unfortunately,most if not all of the Legislative/Executive [and probably Judicial, given the Eminent Domain Marxist-Leninist turnaround rule of 2005] sold us all out whilst keeping this nation distracted from these dangers at hand…like a magician’s slieght-of-hand…Blinding us to the Tyranny of Evil for American Idol,”Immigration” to create FURTHER boiling division among Americans; as if they [these powerbrokers] WANT to start riots,dissent,and ethnic violence!! God forbid it ever happen!!..for it would make the blood and crud our fathers spilled from Bunker Hill,Antietam,San Juan,Somme, Iwo,Utah,Chosin,Ia Drang,and Iraq,quite possibly for naught…and my great Uncle[SSG] Rex Stone WAS at Utah Beach…My Granddad Alvin L.Cowan, became the FIRST Sgt.Major/E-9 in Oklahoma 31 Oct 63, retiring 1964 after 33 years of service to his country…y’all probably have similar stories of your families’ own…So to read these accounts in both mainstream and alternate press is vexing and depressing… It’s not just grossly incompetent;it’s RAPE… Rape and dishonor to every man and woman who gave up their hopes and futures for a plot of dirt in a battlefield or ocean,while our leaders who were sworn to uphold their duty to us;morever them,piss on their memory,surely as Cain did Abel, and Peter denied Jesus…after swearing an oath also…but at least Peter remembered!!! Our “aopstles”–these reps/senators forget, and let their flocks back home [the states] get eaten by immigrant wolves,taxed with bloodticks, and fall off the cliffs of treasonous sell-outs…So in the midst of this mess, how can one truly “take back America?”…Especially when our Prez. has created himself a “mini-cult of personality”troupe..and addresses his nation not just with silly,”Nacht und Nebel” cirucumspectness but talking down as though his fellow Americans have not the wit to BS from chocolate cake!! Even the most blind,chauvinistic hardliner left-wing Democrat i’ve overheard talking never talked down in a debate,not like our Prez did!! [and i'm Republican by vote!]…I don’t think this process can be halted…things are in motion…but it CAN be delayed and slowed…but first We, the People–Americans, as possible can and quickly, gotta work together…NO MORE STUPID LAWS,COMMITTES..time is too short…dump congress this fall..somehow, vote “none of the above”—wouldn’t that be ironic??–Abe Lincoln would spin laughing at THAT one!! I’d stand if someone would stand with me—help with these traitorous acts the best we can…our votes and voices FIRST, exposures and constant media next…dump career politicians—4 years only…6 senate—no second chances—Ted Kennedy–piss off–go dive into chappaquiddick ya traitor…anyone willing to stand and help clean this divided,dirty house of secrets too?? I am tho’ im sick and disabled…Like the movie quote from Network [1976], “I’M MAD AS HELL AND I’M NOT GONNA TAKE THIS ANYMORE!!” Great Article/Argument, Mr. Rich, and Kudos to all other comment submitters…thanx 4 reading mine 2!!!

I want my country back too, but when the major news networks continue to portray the recently released, jerky video of something hitting the Pentagon on 9/11 as Flight 77, we’ve still got a long, long way to go — there’s nothing to see except an explosion! As for the [al]“Qaeda cell that hijacked Flight 77,” of the five alleged hijackers, it has been reported by the news media that Khalid Almihdhar and Salem Alhazmi are still alive and that Hani Hanjour lacked alleged flying ability. Furthermore, there is evidence that Flight 77 did not exist at all on 9/11. All of this continuing military psy-ops is meant to cut off inquiry of the 9/11 truth movement at a time of lagging support for the president’s and vice-president’s war of terror against Iraq, Iran and the world. I’m much more inclined to believe what hit the Pentagon was a missile fired from a drone jet fighter. The NSA spying is just the tip of the iceberg. The major crimes of this administration (fraudulent election of 2000 and 2004, 9/11, and the Iraq War) will not come to light by a subservient press, and the neocons will continue to strike back like a snake to further cover-up their criminal conspiracy against America and the world.

Those people who believe in democracy, the Constitution, free speech, civil rights, dignity for all, etc, must investigate on their own these crimes for themselves and report, as many have done, their findings on the Internet. Don’t expect another Congressional so-called investigation to get to the truth. It’s too late for that! Impeachment of the president, his cabinet, and the neocons is what is needed. How many more troops and innocent civilians in Iraq have to die in this illegal war? Now it’s on to Iran!

There appears to be alot of ongoing traitorous, thuggish activity extending far beyond the scope of this article going on since day one of this administration’s takeover of the White House. The first point being that Bush was not honestly elected in the first place. One could continue with government involvement in 9/11, The President seeming to think he is above the law, above so many laws, the continuing chemtrailing of the US population that according to chemtrail researchers has included everything from the mass drugging of the populace through the aerosol operations to the dessiminiation of toxic EDB, barium and aluminum. Most frightening of all genetic markers, red blood cells and fibers with microscopic fluid filled sacs have been found in the chem trails. The constitution has been trampled on, people getting arrested just for expressing a negative opinion of Bush or being denied jobs because of books they have checked out at the library, trillions of dollars from the defense dept budget that can’t be accounted for, and nobody seems to even care. This country is being run like a third rate, corrupt banana republic. I hate it and I am sick of it. I want my country back, the one described in the original constitution.

Restore the constitution and all of the rights guaranteed by it .

When will mainstream media finally begin to cover the Chemtrails? Ongoing globally since 1997 these aerosol operations, illegal under EPA regulations are the largest air operation in history.

They are spying on ordinary Americans, torturing unjudged prisoners. What a waste of time and money! I think this administration should be spied on and questioned on 911. People like Larry Silverstein, Marvin Bush, Rumsfeld, Cheney and Dubya himself. Use torture if need be, show em that we are not weak. I’m sure we will get answers.

You neglected to mention that the NY times sat on the NSA story for 18 months before finally publishing it. (as personal favor to lord Bush no less)
Personally I relish being a witness to the MSM running themselves out of the public trust and therefor out of business.

Long live the internets!

Quite true, but where were the lapdog MSM and it’s crew up until recently? All this and tons more has been uncovered and published on numerous (non-MSM) internet blogs for years, but they were all decried (by your cronies) as “conspiricy nuts”. Now, as these so-called “conspiricies” are proven true (one by one) the lapdog MSM comes out from hiding to take credit. Better late than never, but the least you could do is credit the REAL sources, as opposed to the MSM, who, as usual are waiting in the wings to take credit for someone elses work.
Now, it’s time for you to admit the above to your readers. And ….. to borrow a line from the Who: ” don’t be fooled again!”
