campeador, you point to the 'white elephant in the room', the topic no one in the media wants to confront directly for fear of getting the cr*p beat out of them (figuratively speaking). although everyone knows its there, the pork and the lobbyists are just too strong for anyone truly seeking justice to get any ink in the MSM.

we live in curious times -- i've often wondered why dennis kucinich is never invited on the talk shows after being SO right about the war and its treasonous reasons.

In a word, there's a reason why brilliant thinkers like Friedman concluded the war would be a tragic mistake yet supported it anyway -- Israel.
