Waynet--- For starters, Shepard Smith has two hours a day, on FOX. Greta VanSustern has an hour each night. Geraldo Rivera has an hour show, once a week. These people are not republicans. The following are on regularly: Bob Beckel, Alan Colmes, Juan Williams, Lamont Hill and Al Sharpton. The list goes on and on.
Valerie Plame was outed by Richard Armitage. Fitzgerald knew this before he even started his investigation. It didn't seem to bother him one little bit to waste time and money to try and nail somebody for something. Furthermore, there seems to be a difference of opinion as to whether she was even a covert agent, at the time. the one thing we do know is that her husband didn't like Bush.
What rights have you lost? Do you really think agents are listening in to your phone calls?
As far as ACORN goes I think they made themselves look bad. How many cases of voter fraud have they been accused and convicted of? This has happened for years. Long before they were dumb enough to say what they did on tape.
