Blackwater are Bush's paid killers, plain and simple! Bush SS troops! Wait until Bush uses Directive 51 and turns Blackwater loose on us.

I can't believe the American people put up with this crap and I can't believe our Congress is so incompetent. Can you imagine not even one special prosecutor by now? Not even for the billions of dollars in cash the administration claims to have lost?

Waxman is so weak.

Does anyone have the HR number for the legislation which would allow blackwater operatives to be prosecuted? I'd really like to read it.

So now we know that a human life in Iraq is worth approximately the same as a good used car in America!
