What Am I Reading Today?

This week I am reading,  The Dark Side by Jane Mayer.  It is the inside story of how the war on terror turned into a war on American ideals. What we knew and did not know about the impending 9/11 attacks. This is a tremendous look into the thinking behind what would actually lead us to war with Iraq and Afghanistan. Who was really running the show? How the Bush administration  "rewrote" (for a better term I can not find) the Constitution. I am not saying they were right or wrong. You make your own conclusions. I will say that once terrorists hit US soil all bets were off. Constitution or no Constitution.
