The "Jersey Girls", like Cindy Sheehan, would like to hear the truth from George Bush.

When they began their journey, what they didn't know was that the administration that ran its 2000 election on a platform of transparency in government had shut -- tighter than a safe at Fort Knox -- the doors on truth. Of course, when a president and national security adviser receive a briefing paper that tells them Al-Qaeda plans to hijack planes in the United States -- and they both ignore it and do absolutely nothing to prevent the action -- you might say the Jersey Girls had good reason to suspect that they weren't going to hear the full story.

These wives of 9/11 victims deserve the truth. We all deserve the truth. I would like the Democrats to start holding this administration's feet to the fire until we get the truth. The Democrats might be in the minority in the Senate and in Congress but there are a majority of Americans who would support them if they started to go on the attack more. The time is now!
