I wish it were unbelievable
[Read the article: The unresolved story of ABC News' false Saddam-anthrax reports]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Unfortunately, this is only too believable. Good job holding ABC accountable, and demonstrating the links and fabrications that led to war. Will ABC accept responsibility for their actions? We'll find out how strong a hold the current administration has on ABC when we see how they respond (or don't) to your reporting.

@ freaking shooter
[Read the article: Response from ABC News re: the Saddam-anthrax reports]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Shooter,
Are you really OK with a major news outlet printing false and misleading information, then pretending they didn't? You call this drive-by media. I call it a demand for accountability. They say we should trust them, then they immediately demonstrate that they are not trustworthy, while at the same time disseminating unsubstantiated information which could help drive us into another military adventure in a critical and unstable part of the world. What the heck are you thinking? The stakes are too high to mess around with partisan politics. We need honesty, transparency, and diligence. I believe you really think you're right, and you hate thinking that the other side might have a point. But even you should see this one. This is more important than right wing vs. left wing. This is about the survival of the republic.

write your congressman!
[Read the article: Democrats bear responsibility for restoring habeas corpus]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Here's mine:
Congressman Buchanan,
I'm a registered Republican, and I voted against you in the last election. I did that, because I believed that you supported the policies of the current President of the United States. I'm writing to you today to ask you to work to restore the writ of Habeas Corpus. That this fundamental right was withdrawn redefines our government as an autocracy, not the Republic that I love. We are less secure without this defining right. Your efforts to redeem our party and protect our constitution by returning this right to the people will win you my vote and voice here in Bradenton.
Thank you,
Paul Stone

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Thanks for the C.V. of the current occupant of the White House on page 13 of the comments. I'll fact check that son and use it to shorten conversations with republican colleagues.
Now, back to lurking...

[Read the article: John Yoo: Spearhead or scapegoat?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]here:
http://digg.com/political_opinion/John_Yoo_Spearhead_or_scapegoat
My local newspaper has school board budget cuts as a banner headline on page 1 (I'm a teacher!), followed by middle school kids robbing a pizza delivery man and concerns about Christian license plates. Discussion of Bushco's advocacy of torture is on page 9. This is nuts.
I have to explain to my daughters that our country tortures people as an instrument of official government policy? We've become the enemy.
