Always good to see, this was a brilliant post. In theory I would like to write like this too.

Rep. Gary Ackerman, ANother Senator with roots to the holy land was exposed for War profiteering.
do you people think that traitors like this senator is interested in ending any war ?
if you want to save America you need to clean up your house of representatives and send the children of david packing. take control over your own country, like the germans did.

It doesn't take a lot of courage for a Democrat to denounce war profiteering. What takes courage is to denounce the suicidally insane Israel-centrism of US foreign policy – and to place blame for it where blame belongs.

just cant figure this out. here we go and fight for Democracy around the Globe and our very own Senators are afraid to speak up ? i think it is time for a drastical overhaul and allow only true blue Americans into the House. not Senators that hold dual Citicent ship with a certain middle eastern Country. this is exactly the reason a certain ethnic group was forced to wear the Star of David on their Lapel many years ago.

That's a distinct possibility, and might explain why so few on Crapitol Hill (surely not ALL of whom profit from campaign contributions or other blandishments from the MICC) have voiced objections to the rampant and flagrant corruption in the "defense" sector.

Too bad about this. Sen. Dorgan wasn't supported in his efforts to deal with this corruption.

One of the people he looked at was a 22 year old named Efraim Diveroli. This guy somehow received 300 million dollars in govt. contracts to provide ammunition to Afghanistan. Dorgan used him as an example of the corruption in the link below.

This fraudster eventually plead to one offense with 80 odd other charges being dropped. I wonder about a number of things regarding this case, particularly these two.

1) did he go to prison and 2) who gave him all those contracts to begin with? Sen. Dorgan isn't the only one who would like to know.

Having testified twice before SEN Dorgan's DPC, I have come to respect him as one of the true good guys in politics. His efforts to investigate wartime contracting were aimed not at political gain, but at improving the support given to soldiers and protecting the taxpayer in the process. He understood that if money is wasted on contracts, it is not available to the military to spend on other kinds of soldier support such as better body armor, improved vehicles, etc.

In addition, SEN Dorgan is aprogressive populist who understands the real needs of the general population and that the government can do things to effectively meet these needs. As you might imagine, that is not necessarily a popular position these days.

I recommend his two books, Reckless and Take this Job and Ship It as useful analysis of our country's problems and possible solutions. As an example, SEN Dorgan discusses the problems of immigration and jobs without becoming a Lou Dobbs. Instead he recognizes the interests of all parties to this issue in a thoughtful manner, suggesting policy which can help.

SEN Dorgan will be missed in the Senate. I hope the Administration finds a use for his talents.
