Senator Durbin knew that Bush and Cheney were lying, yet said nothing. This shows a pathetic capitulation by Democrats on the Intelligence Committee who stayed silent when they knew Americans were being lied into war.
Bush & Cheney's crimes are greater, but other government officials who were accomplices must also be held accountable.
Listen to Durbin now, claiming he couldn't disclose the truth because of secrecy laws. Really? What about your oath of office to protect the Constitution? Doesn't that come first?
He could have stood up and said "hey listen I know that what they saying is not true because I am on the intelligence committee" he didn't have to say why exactly... he could have requested a public investigation or a congregational hearing or whatever....and its aluminium not aluminum

As an Illinois: overtaxed, and violated citizen, I hope Durbin the Mexican / Israel cheerleader is hunted down like the TREASOINOUS DOG he is when society melts down. Thank GOD we dont get all the government we pay for in Illinois ! Durbin voted for the bailout, stabs Amerika in the back for illegal aliens every opportunity he gets, and is a part of a hub of corruption known as Chicago Politics. Durbin provides excuses instead of being a statesman.

As an Illinois citizen, I'm satisfied with Durbin's performance in that he's always voted the right way and has been free of corruption, but he's also been in the Senate for a very long time, and is not likely to stick his neck out for anything.

At last we are hearing the voices of truth about this US administration. I hope that this will encourage more "privy" people to explain to the world of the immoral acts carried out by these Neo-Cons. Jusice should prevail.
