FDD


If you do some simple investigation on the web, you know that one link takes you to another ad infinitum. This article is from an extremely good progressive website called TalkLeft the politics of crime

Can Chuck Shumer Be Trusted

Following the links in this story led me to the FDD

OK here's the problem. We now have a Democratic Senate or in presidential parlance, a Democrat Senate. That's great, I'm all for it etc. There's a rub. Take a look at the board of Directors of the FDD.

About the FDD: here

The board includes Chuck Shumer and Lieberman. That's two Democratic (Democrat) Senators on the board of what? Another neocon think tank. Yeah that's what I'm talking about. Neocon-ness is not party particular. Its a virus/bacterial organism that goes anywhere. There's more neocon colonies out there then bacteria in a major city sewer.

This is just outright depressing. So Lieberman caucuses with the Democrats, big deal. He wants war, more war. bigger and better war, anywhere anytime. We already know that. But Schumer, Schumer, how could ya do it Chucky?

A little blurb from the FDD website will give you a hint of what its about. This article eulogizes Rumsfeld.

excerpt: "....Rumsfeld is a visionary with a great sense of history and a great devotion to this country. His tenure has been historic. He helped to end two terrible dictatorships and began a process of military transformation that will stay in motion long into the future. He served the president loyally, and in my opinion, he will be remembered for having served us well."

Get the idea?
