This gives me hope - maybe the tide is turning, the tipping point is upon us, corporate media are re-thinking their complicit role in the whole mess.
Granted, the SPTimes has a liberal reputation, but even the so-called "liberal" print media have buried or ignored this story as old news.
Philip Gailey, Editor of Editorials, sticks it squarely to the Bush administration in his weekly column.
No equivocating here:
Seven months before the "shock and awe" bombing began in Baghdad, the Bush administration was bending intelligence to suit its purpose, which was to go to war come hell or high water.
Who says so? The head of British foreign intelligence, that's who.
Here's the kicker:
Some will ask: What's the point of bringing up the Downing Street memo now, two years after the invasion and at a time when terrorist suicide bombers are making life hell not only for U.S. troops but the Iraqi people? The point is this: President Bush didn't level with the American people before going to war. And he still hasn't.
Read the entire column.
And send him an attaboy.
