2. welcome to DU. I see its your first post. great list!

I suggested awhile back having a DU page devoted to keeping archive of news updates and latest on the biggest scandals and easily forgotten bad episodes from Bush team.

I am hoping to refresh my memory about them with help from others.

The Homeland security department being used to track down Democrats in Texas as the Texans exceeded their authority in redistricting after it was already done in 2002 is one that fries me.

3. Thanks

Good to be here, it took 3 password changes and a few days for me to activate my membership...needless to say...I have been chomping at the bit to join in the discourse.

There are so many issues, lies and scandals to document; it boggles the mind! I keep thinking (hoping, wishing, chanting, praying) that Bush's entire house of cards is on the verge of tumbling down. I want to see it happen right before my eyes, of course I've thought this for years...maybe I'm just ahead of the times:-).

(closing punctuation old school email smiley face....I'm not hip to the new school yet)

Cheers, and thanks for the welcome.

4. Welcome, capaylib -- and I agree with stolen election at the top...

of the list. In my opinion, EVERYTHING goes back to that, and to Bush's illegitimacy. The importance of stealing an American Presidential election by shockingly undemocratic means, and its acceptance by press and public, cannot be underestimated.
