Crawford's " Camp Casey " Still Growing

http://www.truthout.org/docs_2005/081205I.shtml

" The president says he feels compassion for me, but the best way to

show that compassion is by meeting with me and the other mothers and

families who are here, " Sheehan said. " All we're asking is that he

sacrifice

an hour out of his five-week vacation to talk to us, before the next

mother loses her son in Iraq. "

Senior Pentagon officials have opposed the release of photographs and

videotapes of the abuse of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq,

Among the many questions surrounding the investigation into who in the

Bush administration leaked the name of an undercover CIA officer is

whether President Bush's top political adviser told his boss the truth

about his connection to the case.

investigation in Washington stemming from his work for casino-rich Indian

tribes.

 

 

Arianna Huffington | Cindy Sheehan Steps into the Leadership Void

http://www.truthout.org/docs_2005/081205N.shtml

She may not be the kind of media figure the cable news channels would

order up from newsmaker central, writes columnist Arianna Huffington.

But she is the kind of unexpected leader who springs from among the

people and makes nonsense of red state/blue state distinctions.

 

 

American Graffiti: Signs of the Times

http://www.truthout.org/docs_2005/081205O.shtml

President Bush used to enjoy healthy support for his Iraq policy. But

now freeway 'bloggers' are speaking out.

 

 

Marjorie Cohn | The Murder of Casey Sheehan

http://www.truthout.org/docs_2005/081205Z.shtml

Bush claims we must stay in Iraq to honor the sacrifices of those who

have fallen, writes TO's Marjorie Cohn. Cindy says, " the only way he

can honor my son's sacrifice is to bring the rest of the troops home. "
