An excellent column from Glenn Greenwald that attempts to deduce what happened in March 2004. What was the White House up to on domestic spying that was so explosive that the FBI Director was ordering FBI Agents to physically protect Ashcroft and Comey from Alberto Gonzales and Andrew Card? Why did Ashcroft, Comey, and the […] Who did this to Iraq? Who is running for President who wants it to continue? Every day local police haul bodies from the Tigris bearing signs of torture.

On March 16, 1974, Richard Nixon had not been seen in any truly public setting for several months. His approval ratings were below thirty percent, gasoline prices were at record highs, and the US puppet government in Vietnam was a year away from its final collapse. Then, unexpectedly, he appeared, playing a shaky piano tune […] McClatchy, the Washington Post, and most importantly, National Journal, which has actually obtained some of the e-mails withheld from the public as part of the cover-up. |
