"I have learned this at least by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours." —Henry David Thoreau

Seymour Hersh and Cheney's Secret Assassination Squad
Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Seymour Hersh appeared on Democracy Now!this morning, where he discussed the Bush administration's "executive assassination" squad, run by Vice President Dick Cheney.
“Under President Bush’s authority, they’ve been going into countries, not talking to the ambassador or the CIA station chief, and finding people on a list and executing them and leaving,” Hersh said in a recent interview.
