Report tears into Bush Administration

A just-released report by U.S. Rep. John Conyers, Jr., details the illegal activities of the Bush Administration in no uncertain terms.

According to Mother Jones:
Beginning with post-9/11 false intelligence and public deception, Conyers uses sources including public statements, the Downing Street Memo, CIA reports and intelligence briefings to refute Bush’s carefully constructed propaganda advocating a war with Iraq.
There's plenty of blame to go around.
The report makes clear that the blame cannot lie solely with Bush and his inner circle. Conyers faults the Senate and House Intelligence Committees for refusing to conduct any independent, serious investigations into these matters. He also faults the courts for being slow to act and easily stymied by the “procedural defenses” asserted by the administration.

Where is the outrage in the media? Where is the outrage in Congress? Where is the outrage of the American people?

No one seems to care.
