The clips below are a very small part - really, just an introduction of the subject and some notes on his conclusions - of an incredible editorial published today in the Denver Post. It was written by John Koppel, a long-time attorney for the US Department of Justice for whom he currently still works. How much longer that will be the case has yet to be seen, but even as Koppel acknowledges that he is putting himself at risk for reprisal, he has decided that he must speak out, and he pulls NO punches.

Please take a minute to read this editorial. It has taken a great deal of courage for someone in his position to write this, and it deserves to be read.

True, he's not really saying much that hasn't been said before - but this time its coming from someone who has not been fired, who has not resigned, and who cannot simply be dismissed as a "disgruntled former employee."

I hope that if this editorial gains a widespread audience, it will make it more difficult for the ad
