"What's Up With The Downing Street Memo?"
This looks like a very small publication based in Santa Clarita, CA.
Hats off to journalists who are using what they have to speak the truth. And handcuffs on to the criminals!

What's Up With The Downing Street Memo?
by Diana Sevanian, Signal Staff Writer
The Signal, 6/4/2005

"If I had lost a loved one fighting in Iraq or currently had a soldier over there, I would be enraged over the Downing Street Memo. Even without that link, I am fuming about this formerly “extremely sensitive” and now public memorandum.

<snip>

"So what does this silence say? It says,ignore the issue and the people will forget about it. Further, it says that “we the people” do not matter; what matters is preserving the cold-steely dogma that drives this human meat-grinding machine our leaders have set into voracious motion.

<snip>

"Democrats are not the only folks fired up over this situation. Republicans are coming forward, too. Count in Paul Craig Roberts, a conservative Republican and syndicated columnist. A Hoover Institution senior fellow and former Reagan Administration economic policy cabinet member, Roberts says, “George W. Bush and his gang of neocon warmongers have destroyed America’s reputation.”

In his recent column, “A Reputation in Tatters,” Roberts writes that our dismal standing will likely prevail unless drastic measures are taken — including the same penalty served on our former commander-in-chief."

2. As The Bush Administration Continues to Deny, Deny, Deny or.....
...say nothing, the rest of us that still give a damn about truth and integrity from our government officials must keep the pressure on and turn up the heat.
