The attacks occurred on 2 August and 4 August 1964 in the Gulf of Tonkin. Later research, including a report released in 2005 by the National Security Agency, indicated that the second attack most likely did not occur, but also attempted to dispel the long-standing assumption that members of the administration of President Lyndon B. Johnson had knowingly lied about the nature of the incident.[1]<BR/><BR/>The outcome of the incident was the passage by Congress of the Southeast Asia Resolution (better known as the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution), which granted Johnson the authority to assist any Southeast Asian country whose government was considered to be jeopardized by "communist aggression". The resolution served as Johnson's legal justification for escalating American involvement in the Vietnam Conflict.blah blah blahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12843172754553794111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260223047421551014.post-4038832121425911742007-03-23T08:52:00.000-04:002007-03-23T08:52:00.000-04:00"The British ministry's statement said the Marines..."The British ministry's statement said the Marines "completed a successful inspection of a merchant ship when they and their two boats were surrounded and escorted by Iranian vessels into Iranian territorial waters."<BR/><BR/>Wanna bet they were already in Iranian waters?

But with new treatments, the prospect of a long life is improving. <BR/><BR/>The American Cancer Society says fewer than half of patients with advanced breast cancer live five years or more after the recurrence is discovered.<BR/><BR/> Once the cancer has spread into other parts of the body, the disease can no longer be cured, but doctors say it is treatable, and growth of the cancer can be slowed or even stopped for years at a time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260223047421551014.post-20095657457714419682007-03-23T08:28:00.000-04:002007-03-23T08:28:00.000-04:00What is Edwards thinking?

Bush is rejecting Democratic calls for sworn testimony by his White House inner circle about the unusual firings of eight U.S. Attorneys who were viewed as not "loyal Bushies," according to one Justice Department e-mail. But what might the Democrats find if the officials did testify openly and under oath?<BR/><BR/>In this guest essay, Democratic Talk Radio co-host Stephen Crockett suggests that underlying Bush's resistance to a full investigation is evidence of longstanding criminality that borders on racketeering:<BR/><BR/>There is nothing as corrupt as using the governmental powers of law enforcement, to selectively prosecute your political enemies and to cover-up criminal behavior by your political organization and allies, while in a position of political power. This situation is the essence of the current scandal concerning the firing of U.S. Attorneys by the Bush White House. <BR/>The Watergate scandal should have taught the Republican Party that this kind of abuse is outside the bounds of acceptable political behavior in American society. Republican activists failed to learn the lessons of Watergate and are now reliving history on issue after issue. <BR/><BR/>Republican Presidential pardon powers were used to thwart the rule of law and let the Republican political criminal Richard Nixon avoid the jail time he deserved. Republicans should have gone to jail in large numbers doing the Iran-Contra scandals.<BR/><BR/>In that case, a Republican White House ignored the rule of law. They abused the traditions of normal American political behavior and federal law to impose their minority foreign policy views on an American public opposed to the Republican ideologically based policies. Instead, Presidential pardon powers were abused to help Republican political criminals avoid the jail time they deserved.<BR/><BR/>The current Bush White House by executive order changed the process on revealing prior Presidential papers to the public early in George W. Bush’s first term in a way that prevented revelation of criminal behaviors concerning Iran-Contra figures. The role of his father, the first George Bush, in the criminal behavior concerning of Iran-Contra remains unexplored. The executive order may violate the Presidential Papers Act. <BR/><BR/>At issue is Republican Presidential politics influencing potential criminal investigations and prosecutions. The current Republican White House has definitely politicized the process of federal law enforcement in a way that corrupts American government.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, they are continuing a long Republican tradition. Republicans seem to view this as politics as usual. It is not! It is corruption and deeply offensive to the real traditions of American government.<BR/><BR/>Under this Bush, it appears that federal prosecutors have targeted 7 or 8 times more Democratic officeholders than Republican officeholders. The investigations of Democratic state legislators in Tennessee looks politically motivated.<BR/><BR/>Anyone familiar with Tennessee politics knows that Republican politicians in that state are just as corrupt or corruptible as Democratic ones. The federal government has not investigated the Republican officeholders in Tennessee in the way they have Democrats. <BR/><BR/>The political strength of Republicans in Tennessee looks to be closely linked to politicized federal law enforcement by the Bush Administration. The Tennessee politicized law enforcement situation appears ripe for investigation.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://consortiumnews.com/Print/2007/032007a.html" REL="nofollow">LINK</A>toniDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610588627997158628noreply@blogger.com
