The iSenseChange Guide to Impeaching Your Vice President

"You know what? [Wells] said something here that we're trying to put a cloud on the vice president. We'll talk straight. There is a cloud over the vice president. He sent Libby off to [meet with former New York Times reporter] Judith Miller at the St. Regis Hotel. At that meeting, the two hour meeting, the defendant talked about the wife [Plame]. We didn't put that cloud there. That cloud remains…”
-Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald's closing arguments in Scooter Libby’s perjury and obstruction-of-justice trial.

This all-important quote brought to you by the good folks at the SenseChange Center for Positive Change in lieu of the Media living up to its responsibilities and actually doing its job. Thanks, and have a GREAT day!

Gonzo Letters: Ash and Leopold: Next Woodward and Bernstein

Gentlemen,

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you two for some of the only in-depth coverage of the Libby trial. My feeling is that in the years to come, yours will be the analysis (and text, I would imagine, and the second you write a book on it you just go ahead and let me know about it. I’ll buy, I’ll read and I’ll encourage others to do the same) people turn to when they seek answers about this strange time in American political history. What you’re doing is important, fellows, for as Georgie and the NeoCons even now seek to make a case so they can try their luck at Iran, a careful examination of the lies that began the Iraq mess could not be more timely or have more far ranging implications.

I say this little note of Cheney’s (involving ‘this Pres’) is the number one story in the realm, the second being the Media’s complete and utter lack of coverage on it. It’s not like there’s any digging involved. It’s out there. Somewhere in the halls of the Chief High Big Media Muckety Mucks a decision was made that the world can’t handle the Truth.

My position on Plame’s outing is that it’s extremely damning for ‘this Pres’ and this Vice President and enough to kick both of them to the curb and ideally into prison. I haven’t heard anybody calling it what it is, but I affix the label ‘High Treason’ and keep it there, for Plame was working on getting a handle on loose WMD’s from international arms gangs, the very thing that can and will be used against America in the years to come. If you knowingly disable a defender of your country for your own sick ends you are an enemy of your country, President or not. High treason in the highest office of the land. Strange days, friends, but that’s the situation as I see it.

CNN has decided not to cover this story, or to cover it enough to remain credible to the majority of the lemmings, and they’ll continue to do so (or not do so, depending on how you see it). The latest example is the non-coverage of the Fitzgerald’s summation in which he openly targets Richard ‘Dick’ Cheney as co-conspirator in this mess. What are the ramifications of this? Not sure, but one thing is certain; we’ll all know a whole lot about Anna Nicole Smith in the coming days, the death of a whore rather than impeachment of one.

I seek to help get this story out and as such have put a call out to the Gonzo Warriors, an international consortium of ne’er-do-well, miscreant bloggers that, from time to time, coordinate to hold leaders and industries to task for their meddling and malevolence. We’ve been firing piss-fueled emails into the head vampires at CNN demanding they start telling us the Real Story, and if they want to keep calling themselves the ‘Most Trusted Name in News’ they better start deserving it. Will it have an effect? On CNN? Probably not. But every letter that gets written is cut and pasted into our blogs, raising awareness within the larger community in which the Warriors thrive, that of the writingup.com community and maybe, just maybe we’ll hit one of Blitzer’s staffers with one of these things and get ‘em thinking about a little thing called ‘the Real Story.’

Anyways, you guys have been a source of inspiration to me and I get a lot of my information from Truthout. I link to your articles all the time and it has been an invaluable resource for my own crazed warblings. Check us out!

The Libby defence team has admitted evidence into the case in the form of a handwritten note that Dick Cheney wrote that directly implicates President George ‘Dubya’ Bush in the conspiracy to out Valerie Plame, making the whole world that much safer for international WMD vendors. This evidence, if wholly substantiated, should shitcan the Bush presidency and Cheney Vice-Presidency in one fell swoop, because, to me anyway, it means both dudes were entirely in on it, an admission of criminal action by those in the very highest Seats of Power in the Land. The Lands! And CNN has chosen not to cover it.

A dead, money-grubbing whore gets 24 hour play rather than the potential impeachment of a President, and I don’t know what’s worse. Or if there’s any difference. Death of a Whore versus Impeachment of One. One difference only, that I can think of at this point, and that is that I can be assured of every single excruciating detail about the one story and precious little of any value on the other. I like porn and I like politics but for me this one’s no contest: I want the Real Story over Fake Tits.

CNN has chosen not to cover this ‘Bush Treason’ thing (for is it not treason to divulge the identity of undercover operatives seeking to disarm those that would strike your country? If not treason, what? Certainly criminal, we must all agree on that, yes?) and my feeling is that they never will unless the People make them. The people, in this case, are YOU. And ME. If you’re a Gonzo Warrior I’m ordering it in my capacity as co-General or else the title don’t mean a lick to me. If you are a WritingUpper then I’m asking you as a fellow citizen and member in good standing of the same blog neighbourhood as you. If you’re just a netsurfer that’s found this page somehow amidst the rest of the Sound, Fury and Pornography and feel within you a soul that seeks Truth, write them a fucking letter, a letter to these BigBiz stooges that think they know what’s safe for you to learn about in that big scary world out there. Because it’s getting bigger and scarier, and these jerks’ll lull you right into an apocalypse if you let them. And if you let them, does that mean you deserve it? That’s how it looks from where I sit, Citizens.

If you dig my shit, think I’m a cool dude or owe me any fealty or favour, I ask of you to write these dicks. Call these people out. Tell them you want the Real Story. Cuz we’ve seen the byproduct of them choosing what to cover and not cover and it helped lead the World into War. At cnn.com , you can reach any of your personal faves or anti-faves there, or even the head vampires at CNN themselves. If you believe that Truth is important in these dangerous times then you write that letter. The media will not, cannot police itself, but it’s deader than shit in a box if nobody wants to watch it anymore.

p.p. I hereby wholeheartedly endorse Barack Obama for the 2008 presidential elections (09-02-07). The question is NOT whether he’ll do a great job –because he would- but rather if America deserves him and can elect him without murdering him first. I think Clinton’s a Big Biz shill as much as anybody else out there, Lefty or Righty. Obama’s a Change, Clinton’s More of the Same.

the Gonzo Letters: Mr. Wolf Blitzer

Mr. Blitzer,

I'd like to know when you are going to cover the biggest piece of news to yet come out of the Libby case, specifically a personally handwritten missive from VP Cheney directly implicating the President in the scandal. I refuse to believe CNN has not yet heard of this news, as the evidence was admitted in the case by Libby's defenders and you no doubt have all manner of reporters on the case (no excuses, here’s the link: http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/013107Z.shtml). So when will you cover it and more importantly, why haven't you yet? 20 minutes every hour on the non-story of Biden's 'supposedly racist but not really' comments and not one mention of this huge story emerging in the Libby case.

Mr Blitzer, you are, as much as anyone else on earth, an established and esteemed member of the 4th estate, sir, and it's well past time all you guys started acting like it, doing this extremely important job of yours so the People get the whole story. What you decide to cover shapes the landscape of discussion and debate, and what you decide not to cover gets buried forever. It's an awesome responsibility, Wolfy, and dude, you ain't cuttin' it! So START!

It’s called evolution Wolf, and if you don’t remain relevant then don’t be surprised when the internet and the blogworlde buries you’re like a stinking, dead cat.

Yours,
iSenseChange

p.s. appreciated your mewling interview with Veep Cheney very much. You very nearly showed some sand asking the Dark Lord himself about his lesbian daughter! ‘Out of line’ indeed, imagine you asked him the questions that really matter! Like his profiteering with Halliburton! Hoo boy, the fit hits the shan then, eh Wolfy? Anywho, glad to see an inkling of spine for once. Peace to you Wolfy. And do your fucking job!

Evidence Implicating Dubya in the Libby Trial: CNN Doesn't Cover the Story

How many of you are aware, as of this moment, that George W Bush has been directly implicated in the Libby case with evidence penned from the Dark Lord himself, Dick Cheney? Hear of this yet? Ask yourself; why not?

Less talk. Go here. Check it out. Then meet back here.

Deal is, Cheney names the Pres in a note discussing the vile act of outing an undercover agent to get back at her husband for speaking the Truth against the war lead-up lies and this note remains as evidence. Against the Pres. In a criminal case. Which'd make impeachment a bloody snap. We always knew this thing went high up, folks, and we always knew in our hearts that it went up to at least that creep of creeps, Dick 'Darth' Cheney, but this note indicates that 'the Pres' had his grimy mitts all over it too. Fairly important shit, no?

Worthy of coverage? Absolutely. Being covered? Not at all.

CNN is covering the case daily but I've been waiting for that mamby-pamby Wolf Bullschitzer et al to talk on this extremely important document and nothing at all. It's been introduced to the court, a piece of the case and CNN is actively choosing not to cover it. Fucking criminal. After everything that's happened, after all the lies, all the grime, all the crime, all the time, Dubya still gets a free pass.

Want to know what this translates down to? CNN actually has a reprter on the scene all day every day to 'cover' this story. This piece of mind-numbingly important evidence is introduced in the trial, this 'reporter' calls in this information and somebody at the office decides this is not newsworthy. Or rather, that John Q. Public shouldn't see it. For whatever reason.

Need another reason to join some kind of media reform group and force an independant fourth estate?

All. And I'm bloody sick of this shit.

-iSC

p.p. Cheney could very well go down in the Libby case. And Dubya? Could go down in so many different ways it's crazy. It ain't about crossing your fingers, America, it's about pointing the finger, and it's about making your representatives represent you like they're supposed to.
