On Capitol Hill, where support for the aerial interdiction program has eroded since the accident, Busby can help defend the seven-year program to track and intercept drug flights, a big part of the drug war in Peru and Colombia, said two GOP staffers involved in drug issues.

The Truth Hurts
I recommend that everyone read in info on the last link to Narconews. It really blow up the myth of godless Marxist tools. This is an intelligent and impassioned viewpoint that demands consideration. Not all will agree, but they would be hard pressed to refute all that it contains. Amerika needs to clean its own house, and be honest about our true intentions in Plan Colombia.

Legalize and Regulate! Amerika out of Amazonia!

say what?
"but this is a war, and unfortunately there are casualties."

i guess that justifies everything...a war on americans by
amerikans...

congress feels safe making life and death decisions in
washington D.C... sometimes i wish somebody would make that
pile of marble on the potomac the front line instead a safe
haven for out of touch, hypocritical, jerks like Goss...
