NOTE: I am greatly saddened that Obama supporters, which I was - don't even bother to click-through and read the substantiation for my allegations by reading the article on Salon.com in its entirety.

Obama's top lawyer also brokered a little-discussed agreement between former Bush adviser Karl Rove and the House Judiciary Committee, which RAW STORY reported on last week.

"In other words, WSJ seems to suggest that Craig is in trouble because he supported the right decisions on policies, but the political people in the White House mismanaged implementing those decisions," Wheeler writes. "Taking the correct stand on moral issues only works, after all, if you sustain that stand and refuse to be cowed by Dick Cheney. MUCH MORE

There is an eye-opening article on fascism that I consider to be a must-read article. Please go to
"Fascist America: Are We There Yet?" and if you understand the process, which is well laid-out in this enlightening article - it may send a chill up your spine as democracy is slipping away right before our eyes.
