Barack Obama should call for a full Congressional committee investigation of the anthrax case.
I have always "believed" (actual evidence to support such belief being impossible to obtain), that the anthrax attacks were a government operation, intended to take advantage of post-9/11 fears (and I am NOT a "9/11 Truth" subscriber). According to footnote 18 to the Bruce Ivins story in Wikipedia "no autopsy" is "necessary." This all smells very bad, to say the least.
This time we have to engergize the public to the point that they will not accept anything less than full exposure of the facts. Congress has to be ready to insist on a meaningful penalty for a contempt of congress. The M$M has to stand up and be counted for the manipulation they have accepted and realize the damage they have done to our nation and the opportunity that lays at their feet.
The most vital question is how the manipulation of facts by the Bush Administration about an anthrax threat coming from Iraq, which was totally false as were so many other pieces of propaganda put out by the Busheviks, led us to a tragic, unnecessary war. This can be the alternative to impeachment or a means of carrying "impeachment" into an Obama Administration.
Glenn, I know you sense the opportunity for truth with this issue and your leadership will be vital in its success or failure.
Glenn, you and Josh Marshall are providing the best news coverage there is these days. Thank you for digging into this cesspool and being a real journalist.
Go get 'em!
And while this is going on, Debbie Howell at the WaPost is more concerned about the unusually high number of photos of Obama:

As long as questions are being listed, how about a straightforward, yes-or-no question for ABC:
Was Ivins one of the four people who told ABC that tests revealed the presence of bentonite in the anthrax?
