  The page I am referring to is the Iraq War page and what should be done next. McClatchy has a good article up that points out how many of the military minds can not come to a consensus on how to deal with the war. From the McClatchy article: In a sign that top commanders are [...]

  Thanks to GonzoGate, and the fact that many talented US Attorney’s are leaving the DoJ, some very important investigations are on hold. Budget shortages are also being blamed according to this WSJ article : The number of lawyers working in U.S. attorneys’ offices fell 2.4% to 5,316 between Sept. 30, 2004, and Sept. 30, 2006, after [...]

From WaPo: Since the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, the Bush administration has focused much of its $44.5 billion reconstruction plan on oil and electricity. Now, with the U.S.-led reconstruction phase nearing its close, Iraq will need to spend $27 billion more for its electrical [...]

  Seems the Assholes running our federal government have removed every trace of information regarding the Freedom of Information Act from all government websites recently. This should piss off everyone..and I mean everyone, regardless of party affiliation. It seems our current administration doesn’t want to provide information on how to use

  It’s sort of a rhetorical question and its quite late on a Sunday evening..but the point has been raised by the GAO’s Comptroller General David Walker this past week.

  This week, GQ has an interview up with The Donald..aka former DoD head Donald Rumsfeld. It’s relaxed, almost funny at first blush. Rummy talks about the mule he bought his wife for her birthday. The article is written by Lisa DePaulo. I find poetic justice in the mammal being a mule, but perhaps that’s just [...]
