You realize that if we are succesful with Downing Street (even marginally)

[Singular73]

That it will change the face of politics forever.

If we can force the mainstream news to pick up this story, that is a MAJOR victory for internet constituency in this country. It has been done before, and it functioned perfectly (Trent Lott anyone?), but this would be on SUCH a large scale.

Think about it -- we would be forcing the President of the United States to ANSWER these charges.

Without DU, Air America, and other such outlets, Conyers doesn't stand a chance.

Do everything you can...

PS: Anyone else find the Deepthroat timing very interesting? If anything, it HELPS us, in this endevour.

1. Keeping my fingers crossed-and

welcome to DU, Singular73! :hi:

2. One thing is probably certain, we have seen the end of "preemptive"

wars for a while, even if they publicly try to keep this suppressed.

[Singular73]

3. No way.

They have noone to answer to.

We will be bombing Iran in the next 6 months.

[driver8]

6. I agree -- they still feel that they are "untouchable"

We are going to bomb Iran...I would bet money on it.

[The_Casual_Observer]

8. They might bomb them, that sort of thing has been going on

for ever, but an "invasion and regime change" - I doubt that even Frist would buy the rational for another one of those right now.

10. Singular, Welcome to DU!

4. I totally agree. As far as Deep Throat goes....

I'm really curious to know EXACTLY what he kept hidden and written down all these years. Does he know anything that might connect the dots to THIS administration. he was the second in command. Wasn't George HW Bush the FIRST in command at the time? Is there ANOTHER Deep Throat out there willing to come forward? Did he come forward now to attempt to convince someone else that it is your patriotic duty to come forward? Lots of questions about this for me.

I SO hope this is the beginning of a newly emerging Deep Throat style media leak!

7. His family encouraged him to out himself. They

assured Felt that he'd be greeted as a hero. I've also heard (from the Vanity Fair author of the article) he's suffering from pre-dementia and can't remember a lot of what transpired.
Bob Woodward had a book prepared for when Deep Throat's identity was revealed; I heard it'll be in book stores by July 1. No grass growing under his feet...

[meppie-meppie not]

9. Woodward is such a whore!

13. The timing of Deep Throat with Downing Memo huum

The throat sure takes the heat off the memo

[politicaholic]

5. The Downing Street what?

Oh thaaaat. Didn't you know it was spun out of liberal lies and fairy dust? In fact, as you can clearly see it is penned in Satan's own handwriting.

Didn't you know that if you read things you hate freedom?

Keep it simple and hammer home the horror and the hypocrisy of what is being ignored. Here is a sample one....
