MissionNOTAccomplished: “Remind Us” powerful video summary of Bush's lies.
Edited on Wed Jun-01-05 12:30 PM by understandinglife
Many failed to perceive it; though we know almost 60 million of our fellow citizens realized that Bush was not worthy of being President.

We need to mobilize all of those citizens and millions more.

Perhaps spreading "Remind Us" will help ignite a massive mobilization to demand the indictment and prosecution of Bu$h and his fellow neoconster war criminals.

Do send the “Remind Us” link to everyone you can:

Thank you.

Peace.




www.missionnotaccomplished.us - how ever long it takes, the day must come when tens of millions of caring individuals peacefully but persistently defy the dictator, deny the corporatists cash flow, and halt the evil being done in Iraq and in all the other places the Bu$h neoconster regime is destroying civilization and the environment in the name of "America."

1. Thanks for posting this, UL - could you modify the title slightly to
include that it is a powerful VIDEO presentation that needs to be shared? The fact that it's only summarizing up to June 04 may turn some people away - maybe that could be in the message? Just suggestions, of course.

I wonder if there are any plans to update this video or produce a sequel?

I really, really want people to see this. It's devastating because of its stark simplicity and most of all their own lying words, so many of them.

Needs to be seen by EVERYONE.

4. ...and these are only the lies in the leadup to the Iraq War!
So many others, the are countless and unending.

HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE!!! Send this video to everyone - let their own lies convict them. This is an important part of the discussion about the Downing St Minutes and the plans for impeachment.

Conyers should see it too.

6. "Conyers should see it too." Agreed. I've posted it at his blog ....
.... in the 31 May 2005 thread entitled "59,000 Web Page Hits For Downing Street, Deep Throat Revealed, other Developments":

5. maybe we could get the maker of the video to modify it slightly
so it better fits the current state of things - take off the bit out defeating him in Nov 2004 and add something about the Downing St Minutes?

Then it would be PERFECT.

11. It would be even better if it could be updated with the Downing St Minutes
It is impossible to escape the fact that these people are LY(ING LYING LYING when it is playing. A final scene summarizing and excerpting the Downing St Minutes - and explaning tht these are MINUTES of a government meeting and not some vague memo - would make it PERFECT.

14. Here's one of my favorites - not a produced video but a newscast clip
Edited on Wed Jun-01-05 08:21 PM by Nothing Without Hope
showing Janis Karpinsky stating very clearly and forcefully that Donald Rumsfeld KNEW about all the torture at Abu Ghraib. It's one of dzika's gems:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x3649320
Thread title: “Nightline: Janice Karpinski says Rumsfeld knew about Abu Ghraib - (VIDEO)”

I checked just now and the video is still there - it's Real Media, so you download and play. The clip is only a few minutes long.

These people are far worse than mere liars, but they are liars first of all.

15. Galloway: "We need a vigilant citizenry that are wise to all the tricks ..
.... that these monkeys are up to."

That is in response to a question of the military-industrial corporatistas staging a terror attack as a way for Bush to justify yet another illegal, preemptive war -- this time on Iran.

Relevant DU thread:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x3766748

You betcha we need a vigilant citizenry and, more importantly, we need to indict Bush and his neoconster gang before they have another day available to them to sacrifice our soldiers and kill and torture others.

Peace.

17. Senator Reid re: Bush - "But never for the liar, have I?"

Relevant DU thread:

Senator Reid is explicit - Bu$h is a liar, as we all know.

Now, let's spread "Remind Us" - everywhere.

Peace.

19. kick - would be good to get one more vote! This video is timely
though it was filmed before the Nov 2004 election. Hearing them telling all those outright lies - it's sickening and mesmerizing at the same time. I'm glad UL posted this.

21. VIDEO - ONE CNN reporter who told the truth on the Downing St minutes
and you can hear the outrage in his voice. This video clip, another of dzika's gems, is only 2 minutes long, but it sure makes the point. I imagine he wasn't allowed to say much more about it after this, since media policy now appears to be to suppress information about the Minutes.. To watch it, go to this thread:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x1782122
Thread title: "CNN Crossfire: "UK Memo Proves Bush Fixed Intelligence" for War - (VIDEO)"

Here's a pic (but it won't start the video if you click on it.)

22. Truth is our most powerful weapon!
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American Public."-T. Roosevelt

peace.

24. Herbert: "I can't think of a better time to resurrect the Watergate saga."

June 2, 2005

Truth and Deceit
By BOB HERBERT


When he accepted the Republican nomination for president in 1968, Richard Nixon said, "Let us begin by committing ourselves to the truth - to see it as it is, and tell it like it is - to find the truth, to speak the truth, and to live the truth."

<snip>

Now, with George W. Bush in charge, the nation is mired in yet another tragic period marked by incompetence, duplicity, bad faith and outright lies coming once again from the very top of the government. Just last month we had the disclosure of a previously secret British government memorandum that offered further confirmation that the American public and the world were spoon-fed bogus information by the Bush administration in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq.

<snip>

Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon, drunk with power and insufficiently restrained, took the nation on hair-raising journeys that were as unnecessary as they were destructive. Now, in the first years of the 21st century, George W. Bush is doing the same.

<snip>

Congress and an aggressive press ultimately played crucial roles in bringing the truth about Vietnam and Watergate to light.

A similar challenge exists today. We'll see how it plays out.


Peace.

25. Wow - that's telling the TRUTH! Can we have a link to the rest of it?
I love it:

Yeah, that's about right. I look forward to being able to read the rest of this; it's wonderfult o see such clarity instead of the usual smarminess and evasion we usually are fed.

are still reasonable. Too bad so much of it is not.

29. "We backed regime change but the plan had to be clever ....

"... (because) it would be a tough sell for us domestically and probably tougher elsewhere in Europe."

From a memo by UK ambassador to the US, Sir Christopher Meyer, written to David Manning (the current UK ambassador to the US) describing 'after dinner' conversation in March 2002 with Paul Wolfowitz.

http://www.inthesetimes.com/site/main/article/2134


We have all the evidence of mendacity and illegal war-making we need to indict and prosecute Bush, Blair and every other neoconster scum-bag on the planet having any involvement in the Bush's illegal war on Iraq and all the torture and other atrocities that have been committed since August 2002.

Peace.
