John Kerry plans to present Congress with The Downing Street Memo, which allegedly reveals that President Bush's administration manipulated intelligence to justify the Iraq war. Kerry expressed surprise that this significant issue has not received major media attention, although it is being discussed online. Ralph Nader has also called for Bush's impeachment, a sentiment echoed on various platforms including Michael Moore's website. The discussion highlights skepticism about the credibility of the memo and the impeachment push, with some questioning the implications of incompetence as an impeachable offense. The conversation reflects a broader concern about the integrity of the Bush administration and its handling of intelligence leading up to the war in Iraq.

Ha, Ha... You're asking a lot with this.

Personally, I knew the good old US of A was in dire straits when a good man(relatively at least in political terms) like John MacCain could be bumped off the presidential ballot by a push-poll. "Would you vote for Senator MacCain if you knew he had a colored child?"

The US has been TV dinnered and Jiffy-popped to the point of not caring about real news or real events. They only car about what Fox or CNN tell them to regurgitate. Nothing like seeing the echo chamber in action huh?

The Downing Street Memo update according to MSNBC "Countdown"

SECAUCUS -- Last Wednesday, Senator John Kerry told the editorial board of the newspaper in New Bedford, Massachusetts, the "Standard-Times," that he was amazed at the lack of American media coverage of the so-called "Downing Street Memo" -- notes of a July, 2002 British cabinet meeting that suggested the U.S. was making all the evidence fit a pre-planned invasion of Iraq.
--------------------
By Saturday, those quotes, and the original New Bedford story, had been transmuted ...Blogs and websites pulsated with the news: Kerry was going to call for the impeachment of President Bush!
--------------------
The Senator's office told "Countdown" last night that he [Kerry] never said anything about impeachment and asked our reporter where he'd read that line. The answer was: the websites of NewsMax and Al-Jazeera.
However, NOW the story is in the mainstream media, especially following responses by Blair and Bush, who tried to brush the topic aside. In the meantime -
