Reader:SILENCE OF POSSIBLE IMPEACHMENT IN MSM-MEDEAS...
An informal Congressional hearing led by John Conyers/Mich/Dem. was held this Thursday for discussing the 'Downing Street memo.' A long term reader "alerted" us about...
I watched some of the Impeachment Hearing on C-Span2 (Friday evening).
They keep mentioning... "Why hasn't the media mentioned all this earlier...? We've known these things all along..."
I guess they don't know who ownes "the media" Yet...
No mention of the Hearing on the MSM or in RMN...
But why wasn't this allowed to be discussed on TV much earlier...? And why is is "allowed" now. And who was prohibiting the truth? Why don't they just keep controlling the media???
It was mentioned on the evening MSM news about Congressman Conyers held a hearing to discuss the Bush administration's alleged efforts to manipulate Congress into declaring war, and Rep. Kucinich and three others, including two republicans, introduced a proposal called Homeward Bound, which gives a timetable on how to bring the troops home by October of next year.
...this might lead to try a possible impeachment of the recent Govt..
The MSM-Medea is holding quiet, or bringing some ironic comments as you can see in the latest article form the Washington Post where political correspondent Dana Milbank"...drips with a sarcasm that would never be allowed for a report on, say, a conservative gathering or on a topic involving any part of the American political spectrum other than the Left..."(consortiumnews.com)
The memo is a set of documents from the British government which analyzed the situation in Iraq on July 23, 2002, prior to the invasion. They were first published by the 'Times of London' - indicating that President Bush had already made up his mind to take out Saddam Hussein and was using intelligence reports about weapons of mass destruction (WMD) to justify his decision to the American people despite the fact that such intelligence was known to be "weak"...
But back to the Washington Post: "In the Capitol basement yesterday, long-suffering House Democrats took a trip to the land of make-believe," Milbank writes. "They pretended a small conference room was the Judiciary Committee hearing room, draping white linens over folding tables to make them look like witness tables and bringing in cardboard name tags and extra flags to make the whole think look official..."
The Washington Post editors – having already dismissed the British documents about the Iraq War as boring and irrelevant news – are now turning to the next tactic for silencing any remaining dissent, consigning those who won't go along with the "official oppinion" for the time being.
From the Mercury News where Knight Ridder, their parent company, reported the memo on May 6 already:
Lawmaker to examine secret Iraq memo
BRITISH DOCUMENT SUGGESTS BUSH MAY HAVE MISLED U.S.
By Ruby L. Bailey

WASHINGTON - The secret British memo that reported President Bush was determined to go to war against Iraq months earlier than he acknowledged publicly will get its first congressional attention today, albeit unofficially.
In the closest version so far to a public hearing on what is known as the Downing Street memo, Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., will head a forum examining the document, minutes of a meeting British Prime Minister Tony Blair had with aides July 23, 2002, in London. That will be followed by an Internet-organized rally in front of the White House.
Conyers plans to deliver the signatures of 105 congressional Democrats and more than 500,000 citizens on petitions demanding a detailed response from the Bush administration to the memo's allegations, which said it ``seemed clear that Bush had made up his mind to take military action.'' The memo also says the Bush White House ``fixed'' intelligence data to justify the war and ignored reports showing that Saddam Hussein did not possess weapons of mass destruction....

...Conyers said he is holding the forum, which will be televised on C-SPAN 3, to uncover whether ``there was a secret decision well ahead of the authority Congress had given'' on Oct. 11, 2002, to Bush to launch the war. Conyers said the memo suggests that even as the Bush administration ``was assuring Congress, they were secretly planning war.''
Both Bush and Blair denied such allegations, but they have not challenged the document's authenticity.
Rep. Peter Hoekstra, R-Mich., chair of the House intelligence committee, said that despite the memo, nothing points ``to a deliberate politicizing to get an end result'' by the Bush administration. Hoekstra said his committee has no plans to investigate the memo.
The document provides no new information, said Andrew Bennett, a political-science professor at Georgetown University....
You see - that "impeachment" seems to be "off the real plan". My feeling althoug says that the "revelations" of Reynolds regarding the 9/11 might have had "added" their share to these latest developments.
Was the Reynolds-thing ( see my article on that) just a "warning" for the "Memo"-Faction to stop everything, or there might be more "revelations"?
