As all of the scandals in the House of Bush begin to slowly merge together, AfterDowningStreet.org has an update on events scheduled around the country on July 23rd, the third anniversary of the original “Downing Street Memo” (the minutes of a meeting in the UK describing their foreign ministers meetings with the Bush Administration’s plans to topple Saddam through military means eight months prior to asking Congress for authorization, and revealing that they had planned to “fix the intelligence and the facts around the policy”).
There are now more than 150 events planned nationwide, and ADS has info on how you can participate and/or help organize an event in your own hometown.
As we like to say…this democracy ain’t gonna save itself, people!
(As a side note, our interview on last weekend’s BRAD SHOW with Times of London’s Michael Smith, the journalist who broke the original story and is continuing to break still more if it, is now available for listening online in the BRAD SHOW Archives. Scroll to the 7/9/05 show, HOUR 1.)
My first post on BB…
Brad suggested I post something here.
I just thought you might like to know your blog, along
with several others, inspired me to do something.

I made a post about the Rove investigation a while back saying I felt this was just fodder for the media and that all we’ll really get is for Rove to be an undercover "Bush’s Brain" rather than being the blatant version he is right now.
I think scotty (McC.) is intetionally being seen as stonewalling so that the media focus on Rove (thinking there’s a lot more to it) rather than the DSMs and the many cases of GOP corruption in Ohio.
Although I like seeing Rove get shit… it isn’t going to impeach Bush like the Iraq war lies, the bullshit WMDs claim, the thousands of lives lost to war, the DSMs which show the lies were made, etc… could.
Looks like someone at the startribune agrees…

I understand your sentiment about not wanting anything to divert attention away from W’s war crimes and treason, but there’s a likelyhood that Rovegate ties in with the DSMs as it’s part of the cover-up for the lies he told about going to Iraq. There’s a possibility that this mess with Rove goes deep into the WH all the way up Bolton, Libby and Cheney. We know there are two sources. And if Rove is indeed not a "target" of the investigation as claimed, then WHO else are they looking at? In the cast of players, Cheney plays a big part. The righties will no doubt celebrate if Rove is exhonerated, but they shouldn’t put their party hats on too soon because if it isn’t Rove it’s someone even higher up. Did Miller go to jail to protect her source? Hmmm…the source gave her permission to talk. So if that isn’t the reason, then maybe she’s just very afraid because her source is very powerful. So finding out the sources of the leak is no doubt going to help the DSM cause providing even more evidence about prewar intelligence being falsified to suit their invasion agenda. Finding out if high administration officals committed treason is indeed a very important issue. Chipping away the bricks of the foundation will cause the whole ivory tower to crumble and fall.
