Go get 'em, Leon. The Bush/Cheney Administration didn't do anything for the monies they scammed from the US Treasury.

Speaking truth to power was never something George and Dick were good at receiving, this is just another occurrence.

Richard Cheney wants to save his own 'hide' and that of his party from political and legal demise. For seven years after September 11, 2001, the people of the USA trusted the 'powers that be' to protect them. How many times did I hear the propaganda? How many times did we believe the 'systems' within the mechancisms of the USA were safe. Dear God, they couldn't even perfect the issuance of USA Passports while they demanded information they had no right to have and raised the cost of application.

When does it stop, Dick? You are out of power, have compromised this country by running a war for Halliburton and you continue to endanger us by running your mouth? When does it stop?

I think Dick needs a job after the global fiscal collapse. Why don't we give him a job at the US - Mexican Border. He can stop all the potential terrorists he wants !!



...The Central Intelligence Agency typically fights distant enemies, but on May 21st its leaders were preoccupied with a local opponent. A few miles from the agency’s headquarters, which are in Langley, Virginia, former Vice-President Dick Cheney delivered an extraordinary attack on the Obama Administration’s emerging national-security policies. Cheney, speaking at the American Enterprise Institute, accused the new Administration of making “the American people less safe” by banning brutal C.I.A. interrogations of terrorism suspects that had been sanctioned by the Bush Administration. Ruling out such interrogations “is unwise in the extreme,” Cheney charged. “It is recklessness cloaked in righteousness.”
Leon Panetta, the C.I.A.’s new director—and the man who bears much of the responsibility for keeping the country safe—learned the details of Cheney’s speech when he arrived in his office, on the seventh floor of the agency’s headquarters. An hour earlier, he had been standing at the side of President Barack Obama, who was giving a speech at the National Archives, in which he argued that America could “fight terrorism while abiding by the rule of law.” In January, the Obama Administration banned the “enhanced” techniques that the Bush Administration had approved for the agency, including waterboarding and depriving prisoners of sleep for up to eleven days. Panetta, pouring a cup of coffee, responded to Cheney’s speech with surprising candor. “I think he smells some blood in the water on the national-security issue,” he told me. “It’s almost, a little bit, gallows politics. When you read behind it, it’s almost as if he’s wishing that this country would be attacked again, in order to make his point. I think that’s dangerous politics.”...

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei brings 'reason' to the disbuted election results. "Let Fairness & Transparency Reign. Thank you."

Any illegitimacy to elections brings sorrow to people. The vote is the only method people have in applying their voice to the desires for their government. When the vote is 'insulted' by corrupt methods the pain to the false outcomes is too much to bear.

I please refer to a 'known' inconsistency.

The election results were supposed to be 'carefully' compiled and reported in three days. That did not occur. The people immediately reacted with the understanding the 'process' was 'incomplete.' The people's voice matters, their desire for accuracy and fairness is vitally important.

Thank you.

I regret all the deaths that occurred. Those people were passionate to their voice and let it be a reminder to the leaders of Iran how their people rely on 'safe, fair and consistent election and voting rules.'

Surprise move by Iran's supreme leader comes as interior ministry bans Tehran rally by supporters of Mir Hossein Mousavi

Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has ordered an investigation into claims of vote-rigging and fraud in last week's presidential election, Iranian state TV reported today.
The report said Khamenei had told the guardian council, the clerical body that oversees elections, to examine the pro-reform candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi's claims of widespread rigging in Friday's poll.
The government declared the incumbent president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, to have won in a landslide victory.
Today's news represents a surprising turnaround for Khamenei, who had previously welcomed the results.
Mousavi has cancelled a rally planned for later today after being warned that militias responsible for policing it would be equipped with live ammunition....
