A Heathen's Perspective

From politics to media, from music to spiritual matters, and from obscure issues to the latest hot button topics, comes the blabber from a true heathen, without regard to the breaking wind of socially-acceptable attitudes, yet with an almost sacred devotion to humor in the face of today's polarized, shout-down-your-opponents climate of fear and intimidation.

HMonk Quickie! ~ Frontline's "The Dark Side"

Damn, I hope you didn't miss this week's episode of Frontline on most PBS stations. But, in case you did, here's the direct link to WGBH's page on this latest and perhaps most disturbing report concerning the manipulation, manhandling, and political steamrolling by The Dick, Rumsfeld, and others as they beat the drum for the war in Iraq:

-----

"After 9/11, Vice President Richard Cheney seized the initiative. He pushed to expand executive power, transform America's intelligence agencies and bring the war on terror to Iraq. But first he had to take on George Tenet's CIA for control over intelligence."

I've added this link to my old Protest Page at The Human Trust.

For a concise review of the program, read the Raw Story's Frontline: The battle between Vice President Cheney and CIA to control the 'dark side'. It's a tasty little tidbit that may cause you to run screaming to your nearest video/DVD rental outlet.

Don't forget to click any "Frontline" links you may find at my Protest Page either. Links to an earlier Frontline program on the war, and a follow-up Frontline are linked from there as well. Okay then...it's been a long day ~
