House Inquiry into White House Iraq Group

Submitted by kspidel on 10-24-2005 – 6:17 pmComments

Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH) today introduced a Resolution of Inquiry to demand the White House turn over all white papers, minutes, notes, emails or other communications kept by the White House Iraq Group (WHIG).

“This group, comprised of the President and Vice President’s top aides, was critical in selling the Administration’s case for war,” stated Kucinich. “We now know that the Administration hyped intelligence and misled the American public and Congress in their effort to ’sell’ the war. After over 1,900 American troops have been killed in Iraq, it is long past time for this Congress to ask serious questions about WHIG and its role in the lead up to the war.”

A Resolution of Inquiry is a rare House procedure used to obtain documents from the Executive Branch. Under House rules, Kucinich’s resolution is referred to committee, and action must be taken in committee within 14 legislative days.

“For two-and-a-half years Congress has sat on the sidelines neglecting its oversight responsibility when it has come to Iraq,” continued Kucinich. “We owe it to the American people to hold this Administration accountable and to find out the truth.”

    This is a long overdue and necessary deed. In as many places as possible, I have been recommending support for Representative Jerrold Nadler for his efforts along this same line. With the first snowfall in New England maybe we can take the hint from nature and get a movement snowballing.

    Let us all speak the same things and be perfectly goined together in love for our Democratic Platform. We have a perfect oppertunity to give an oppertunity to those that want to pull out of proverty. If everyone who had parents on welfare had to finish two years of collage or a trade school and were not allowed to have children until they found a job. We would only have to care for the handicapped and those in prison. But, of course then we would lose our freedom to choose our path in this life. Maybe we could mandate free career counceling course to all students past the fourth grade. Have the students submit a career plan each year until they reached their goal. If we vote Hillary Clinton in as President, we will get two in one. Read Mandate For Change, it shows Clinton forced the Republicans to put most of the programs in that he spoke about in his Campaign. Two for the price of one.
  • On principle I am NOT supporting in any way political and or religious parties or leders who focus MORE ON negations, contensions, contentiousness, domination, denigrations and or violence; THAN UPON affirmations, constructive proposals, reconciliations, cooperation, colaboration, peacemaking, shalom, conflict-resolution, and open-and-honest dialogue.

    I served as the Secretary of the Iowa Democratic Party during 1974 1978; and played many powerful and central roles in the formalization of the whole Caucus Convention Process across all of Iowa during 1974 to 2004.

    You may access my extensive system of about 7,200 essays which were written during the above period of time, and are now accessible at the web site: www.essayz.com. The site is being visited about 300 times each day; apparently by college and university students who I suspect would be likely to become politically active. The web site is a work in progress; with much of the emphasis now on making it easier to use and on providing more ways to find essays which are likely to interest the visitors to the web site.
