Cheney defends NSA program, invokes 9/11
http://msnbc.msn.com/id/10716363/
Under a secret order signed by XXXXXXXXX Bush after Sept. 11, the NSA was freed from its normal restraints and allowed to eavesdrop on the international communications of U.S. citizens and residents. Bush and other administration officials have said the spying has been limited to cases involving suspected al Qaeda associates here or overseas. "This wartime measure is limited in scope to surveillance associated with terrorists," Cheney said.

Spying on journalists?
NBC's statement is bizarre regarding Andrea Mitchell's question to Risen, asking if he had uncovered evidence that CNN correspondent Christiane Amanpour was eavesdropped upon.

Man nabbed with 'suicide bomber' in journal

Authorities boarded the plane and detained the man on the Frontier Airlines plane on charges of being under the influence of drugs or alcohol. But the words "suicide bomber" in his journal appeared related to music, the FBI spokeswoman said.

10 killed, 50 injured in suicide attack in Afghanistan

This is the most deadly suicide attack with the greatest loss of lives in Afghanistan since last year.

Suicide Attacks Kill About 100 in Iraq
The U.S. military said a roadside bomb killed five American soldiers patrolling in the Baghdad area.

Seven US soldiers killed in Iraq

Another two American soldiers were killed by a roadside bomb near the southern Iraqi city of Najaf, Iraqi police said. Police had earlier said that only two civilians were killed in the Najaf incident.

Abramoff also admitted that as one means of accomplishing results for their clients, he, Scanlon, and others engaged in a pattern of corruptly providing things of value to public officials, including trips, campaign contributions, and meals and entertainment, with the intent to influence acts by the public officials that would benefit Abramoff and Abramoff’s clients.

“Government officials and governmental action are not for sale,” said Assistant Attorney General Fisher.

Abramoff raised at least $100,000 for Bush's re?election campaign, becoming one of Bush's famed "pioneers."

A US grand jury in Guam opened an investigation of controversial lobbyist Jack Abramoff more than two years ago, but President Bush removed the supervising federal prosecutor, and the probe ended soon after.

Abramoff has serious juice to get a favor like that from Bush. Is Abramoff blackmailing Bush over 9-11, given that Mohammed Atta was a guest on Abramoff's casino ship shortly before 9-11?

If you type "SunCruz Casinos turns over documents in terrorist probe" into a search engine, you will find multiple cites for the original AP article confirming that 9-11 hijackers were seen aboard Jack Abramoff's casino ship. http://www.madcowprod.com/06202005.html
These casino ships don't travel anywhere. They arrive back at the same port they depart from. The ships exist only to sail outside US territorial waters where gambling is legal, then back again. Why would the 9-11 hijackers, supposedly fanatical Muslims so religious they would be willing to kill themselves for a holy mission only a week later, be on Abramoff's casino ship?

Incoming
All of official Washington is at this moment waiting with bated breath for the avalanche. Jack Abramoff, the disgraced super-lobbyist, has made a plea agreement in the massive prosecution against him and his cronies. Every talking head who has spoken on the subject has stated bluntly that the fallout from this plea deal will almost certainly result in the largest scandal to hit the capital in decades.


Running For Cover: Bush, Frist, Hastert, House Maj. Leader Blunt, Former Leader DeLay...

So when do we get invaded to remove the rogue government that spies on its own people, gases its own people during anti War protests, stages "terrorist" attacks, holds crooked elections, attacks other nations without cause, and uses torture on innocent people looking for WMD that don't exist?
