Luckily I have an orange turtleneck that will look stunning with my new silver hoop earrings and foot shackles that day.

But seriously, Gitmo is a nightmare and needs to be radically reformed or closed for good. IMO.

    Miss Melody

    Did you hear the news? Probably not. Only independent journalists are covering it.

    A plane the CIA used to transport terror suspects to Guantamano crashed in Mexico.

    On board: 4 TONS of cocaine.

    The pilot: a frequent contract aviator for the CIA, DEA, and FBI.

    But no worries for Bush & Co. The US news media is censoring the story.

    Thanks Melodious, a question has to be asked as to where ALL this coke going to be distributed and by whom???

    Also this story is going totally unheard of, my first time hearing of it. This NEEDS to be posted everywhere and it appears corruption is rampant in our govt.

    Get this story out, I'll have to see if Democracy Now has ever covered this story.
