I was just wondering if anyone knows how to FOIA Secret Service for Jack Abramoff visiting the White House. Isn't that an easy way that we can all see the comings and goings of him at the White House. This is the same way the public found out about the comings and going with Jeff Gannon.
If I knew how to do it I would...
I don't know why no press outlets have do this already...

From Political Wire:
Senate Democratic leaders are encouraging Rep. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) to run for Senate against Sen. Mike DeWine (R-OH), the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports. Brown said he has spoken with Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid (D-NV) about running for the seat.

The leadership has also urged Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) to "consider joining the race, which now has three lesser-known candidates."

With the Dems looking for a Canidate and Hackett taking 48% of the most Republican area of the state, he could walk into the Senate Seat.

"With all the attention being paid to if Rove leaked Plame's name, we are missing the point.
As a covert agent, wasn't the fact that she worked for the CIA classified?
Cooper's email shows that he leaked that fact:
"told me that the White House had not paid attention to former Ambassador Joseph Wilson's CIA-sponsored February 2002 trip to Niger because it was set up as a boondoggle by his wife, an analyst with the agency working on weapons of mass destruction."
We know from the DOD documents (posted on AMERICAblog) that if you leak classified info, your clearance should be pulled.
As Deputy Chief of Staff, Rove coordinates the National Security Council. He could not do this with out a security clearance, so this is what we should focus on. Let Fitzgerald worry about seeing if he leaked Plame's name. " Read More

Rove is about to go to Jail for perjury and obstruction of justice in the Plame case. We need to use this occasion to do what the Republicans do best by linking Rove's crimes to Rumsfeld. It has been shown on many occasions where Rumsfeld lied to Congress about Iraq. (For more proof read this article in Newsweek about the conditions in Iraq.<http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8359694/site/newsweek>

The Republicans and the President went into Iraq by linking two unrelated subjects: 9/11 and Iraq. One of the reasons Republican's get more mileage from Democratic scandals is because they do this.

We need to be loud about making the connection. We can't just focus on taking down Rove; we need to make this scandal wider in order to take back this country.
Please Recomend so more people will see this!

War of Nerves
The politicians say we're winning. The generals aren't so sure. How Bush hopes to persuade a wary nation to stay the course.

By John Barry, Richard Wolffe and Evan Thomas
Newsweek

July 4 issue - Generals must always speak truth to civilian power. That is the conclusion of a book considered to be required reading by many senior officers in the Pentagon. "Dereliction of Duty," by Maj. (now Col.) H. R. McMaster, argues that the Joint Chiefs of Staff failed to do their duty by failing to level with the president, the Congress and the American people about the true costs and requirements of fighting the Vietnam War. McMaster, who is now commanding the Third Armored Cavalry Regiment in Iraq, has briefed at least one gathering of four-star generals. "You need to hear this," former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Henry Shelton told McMaster's audience, America's top 17 four-stars, over a breakfast in January 1998. The message these senior officers were supposed to take away is to be honest about foreign interventions like Iraq--to always tell the hard realities to their civilian masters. Read More

Senate.gov details Filibuster of Abe Fortas…frm. Frist CoS responsible for content. As Republicans talk of the nuclear option, all of them spout the same lines about this being the first time filibusters have been used in Judicial nominations. It appears that the Senate's own website proves that the Republican's are full of crap.
The Senate website has a page dedicated to the Filibustering of Abe Fortas on October 1, 1968. (Links and screen shots below for when the pages disappear)

Jewish voters were the target of one of the most aggressive outreach efforts by the Bush Campaign; they made signs with quotes such as "Arafat endorses Kerry" in places like Palm Beach, Fl. In his column in NY Times, Tom Friedman (Below) sets the record straight. He talks about how Hezbollah holding a "mass rally" is a sign of Pres. Bush winning the War on Terror through spreading Democracy. Read More

The Boston Herald reported today that Healy "was on Capitol Hill recently seeking advice about potential campaign managers." Although the bury this as the last line of the story this is proof that Mitt is not going to run. If he was going to run, why would she need a campaign manager???
