Phil Gramm is wrong. Americans aren’t whiners, they’re just lazy and fat!

Dear Ms. Pelosi,
Today, CNN reported this:
Former terrorist suspects detained by the United States were tortured, according to medical examinations detailed in a report released by a human rights group. “We found clear physical and psychological evidence of torture and abuse, often causing lasting suffering,” said Dr. Allen Keller, a medical evaluator for the study.
The report is prefaced by retired U.S. Major Gen. Antonio Taguba, who led the Army’s investigation into the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal in 2003.
There is no longer any doubt that the current administration committed war crimes,” Taguba says. “The only question is whether those who ordered torture will be held to account.”
What are you going to do about it? By taking impeachment off the table, you have further weakened our country as much as Bush/Cheney. How? You have chosen to ignore YOUR Constitutional duty of checks and balances. You know this, of course. Who owns you? I think that’s the more relevant question now.

“CNN, The Most Trusted Name In News”
The most trusted name in news?
I trust CNN? NOT!

Your front page headline today is so wonderful to read! Americans think there’s hope. I feel sooo inspired!
But then americans think we might actually be in a recession. That’s BAD!!! Golly, gosh, who really knows?
Maybe if the Corporate News actually reported news, the americans would know, instead of wondering.
That’s ok, americans don’t need to know, do they?
news is so wonderful now. We get to find out opinions on things, not just silly facts and stuff!
CNN, keep telling us GOOD stuff and not BAD stuff, OK?
How’s Britney?

“A moment I’ve been dreading. George brought his ne’re-do-well son around this morning and asked me to find the kid a job. Not the political one who lives in Florida; the one who hangs around here all the time looking shiftless. This so-called kid is already almost 40 and has never had a real job. Maybe I’ll call Kinsley over at The New Republic and see if they’ll hire him as a contributing editor or something. That looks like easy work.”

My favorite Corporate Media outlet to pick on is CNN. Why? Because FOX News is much too easy of a target. I mean, you just don’t need a sawed off shotgun to hit the side of that barn! Dang!
What’s the latest with my dear friends at CNN? How about a poll worthy of the New York Post? Or maybe the National Enquirer? Did Rupert Murdoch buy Time Warner while we were sleeping? Oh never mind.

CNN.COM, do you work for the Bush Administration?
Is that it? Or are you just clueless? Spiderman and MJ get front page coverage.
But nowhere is the truly important ongoing story about the most vile abuse of power in American presidential history. And what do you know about it? Do you have reporters anymore or just newsmodels?
Very, very late last night, just before midnight, the Bush administration submitted a filing in CREW v. Executive Office of the President, our lawsuit challenging the failure of the White House to preserve and restore millions of missing emails.
The backup tapes were recycled. Oh darn. Sorry about that. Oops.
Where is CNN?
Nowhere to be found…

Smoke coming from a bulding on the White House grounds?
The Bush Administration spent over $5 million dollars on paper shredders, almost 6 times as much as the previous administration.
So my only question is this?
Were they burning shredded documents or did they run out of paper shredders?
Oy.

I continue to be amazed at the (non)coverage at cnn.com of relevant factual information. Case in point, the headline reads:
Ex-agent: Waterboarding ’saved lives’
“John Kiriakou said he did not want to perform the “entirely unpleasant” procedure branded by critics as torture, but added it brought results that stopped attacks and saved lives.”
IF you click the story, you get the MORE IMPORTANT DATA:
“A former CIA agent who participated in interrogations of terror suspects said Tuesday that the controversial interrogation technique of “waterboarding” has saved lives, but he considers the method torture and now opposes its use.”
Hello? On the home page you get “branded by critics as torture” and then IF you read the story which many people don’t you get “he considers the method torture and now opposes its use.”
Hmmm.
And oh, by the way, there’s a teensy weensy little story about the destruction of evidence tied directly to this story. Any mention of this at CNN? Nope.
Hmmm.

Dear Speaker Pelosi,
I wonder if you’re aware of the dereliction of your duties when you uttered these words:
“Impeachment is off the table.”
Congress is required by the Constitution of the United States to provide checks and balances with the Executive branch and impeachment is required by the Constitution when the President commits high crimes and misdemeanors.
By making that statement, you have denied that responsibility. What would it take to change your mind?
Illegal wiretapping? No.
Torture? No.
Lawless detention of people at Gitmo? No.
700 signing statements designed to ignore 200 years of precedents? No.
An NIE report that makes Him look either incompetent or deceitful, after mentioning a threat of WWIII based on no evidence? Nope.
And now obstruction of justice by destroying evidence? Apparently not.
Ms. Pelosi, as the first female Speaker of the House, you had an opportunity to demonstrate that women are just as courageous and willing to make difficult decisions as men. You have failed.
But even more, you have simply failed the Constitution and America. This will be your legacy. Whatever else you have done for your country’s good will forever be overshadowed by your not stepping up when your country needed you most.
Good night and good luck.
