Well, since the MSM won’t cover it, I’ll just join the BlogStream Media in covering it here in the blogosphere, and maybe eventually the anti-Bush, unfair, unbalanced, left-leaning, liberal, commie pinko MainStream Media will catch up.

Let’s talk about the Downing Street Memo, a highly classified British memo that indicates that President George W. Bush decided to overthrow Iraqi President Saddam Hussein by summer 2002 and was determined to ensure that U.S. intelligence data supported his policy.

The Downing Street “Memo” is actually a document containing meeting minutes transcribed during the British Prime Minister’s meeting on July 23, 2002 — a full eight
months PRIOR to the invasion of Iraq on March 20, 2003. The Times of London printed the text of this document on Sunday, May 1, 2005, but to date US media coverage has been limited. This site is intended to act as a resource for anyone who wants to understand the facts revealed in this document.

The contents of the memo are shocking. The minutes detail how our government did not believe Iraq was a greater threat than other nations; how intelligence was “fixed” to sell the case for war to the American public; and how the Bush Administration’s public assurances of “war as a last resort” were at odds with their privately stated intentions.

Read the rest of it at The Downing Street Memo.

Let’s Awaken the Mainstream Media. We need to get this story out there.
