EXCLUSIVE
Democrats prep stinging rebuke on Gannon, Congressional oversight
By John Byrne | RAW STORY EDITOR

Democrats are readying a sharp rebuke of the Republican-led Judiciary Committee's vote against demanding an investigation into discredited White House `reporter' Jeff Gannon, and placing it in the context of what they see as a broad attempt by Republicans to stonewall investigations into improper activity, RAW STORY has learned.

Their dissent, prepared by Democrats in the House, is an eight-page explanation of why they feel investigating Gannon's credentialing was warranted, citing preferential treatment and issues of security.

Most salient, perhaps, are the Democrats' effort to place Gannon in a broader context of the Republican-led Congress' moves to derail investigations on issues such as Abu Ghraib and Halliburton contracts.

I just read an article from AP that says that she thinks she may have been tartgeted. Was Guiliana Sgrena targeted? If so why? If she wasn't, what was the story with the US troops that shot at her? If it was a direct hit at her, what info does she have that they don't want her to share? We may never know, but something seems a little off kilter here. The men who were her captors told her that the US troops would "intervene" And intervene they did. The man who died was shielding her when they shot at him. Her story is pretty amazing. I am posting her account from Raw Story below. If we don't seek the truth, we may never find it... Read More

Maybe Ann Coulter will get the MSM to speak up on the Gannon story with her racism in her latest article. The failure of every American citizen not outwardly questioning this will have dire consequences in the long run. If an obvious plant in the mainstream press is not enough to shake you to the core, maybe the blatantly obvious cowardice of anyone with a "Voice" loud enough to be heard not asking questions should do the trick.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH EVERYBODY??
