Is it the "smoking gun" on Iraq?

UPDATE: Raw Story reports 88 representatives have sent a letter demanding an inquiry on this memo. This could break open. Let's hope.

Seeing the Forest is the latest blog reporting on the secret memo of Bush/Blair talks in 2002 about the upcoming war in Iraq. (Read also DailyKos.) It's quite amazing. Now what?

You've been hearing about The secret Downing Street memo -- if you read blogs, that is.

Or, on the other hand, if you follow American news, you probably haven't heard about this.

It's real. It's a "smoking gun." It's proof. There's no more doubt about it. The Bush administration intended to go to war, and altered intelligence to trick the public into believing that Iraq was involved in 9/11. It WAS all a lie. AND they timed all of this to influence the 2002 elections.

But who is going to do anything about it? The American news media won't even report it. The Justice Department is going to help cover this up, not investigate it. The Republicans in Congress certainly aren't going to do anything, and they won't allow the Democrats to do anything.

Is the leadership of the military so infiltrated with right-wing loyalists that they'll put up with this?
