Mansoor Ijaz slamming Richard Clarke on Fox'N Friends

Fox News Channel

[ReleaseTheHounds]

Mansoor Ijaz just called Richard Clarke essentially a liar. Challenged virtually all of his claims -- and accused Clarke of stonewalling Ijaz's efforts to capture Bin Laden via the Sudanese.

[an amused spectator]

I appreciate his response to Clarke, but I don't know if I buy his BS all the time because I've had a hard time finding something he stated or claimed that was true.

Wow. Sounds like Mansoor Ijaz has got quite a track record of BS, sirchtruth. Can you post up 4 or 5 examples of this BS, just off the top of your head? I mean, should be pretty easy, neh?

[guitfiddlist]

He basically called Clark a liar. Rice on her part looked shaken to me.

It's unfortunate - but Condi's voice always quavers, and for those completely dull to the facts (meaning most 'Rats), it may sound like she's not telling the truth. However, her points and arguments are incisive and impossible for 'Rats to refute.

[PGalt]

Mansoor has done everything he can to fight terrorism (short of putting on a uniform) for a long time. Let the gloves come off. Ijaz vs.Clarke would be a pay-per-view event.

Bush just did NOT learn from history; You cannot keep Clinton hold overs around and expect them to have loyalty to the COUNTRY...they are loyal to the DEMOCRATIC party ONLY...Bush should have cleaned house (particularly at the State Department).

I'm so grateful to see this level of sanity and courage from a Pakistani immigrant. This is how we will win the war on terror: when good people from these tortured lands realize what the real enemy is: religious intolerance and pan Arabic fascism. It'll all be over when they finally decide to take up arms against those evils. When their fury is equal to or greater than that of the terrorists, then we will be done with this. And none too soon.

It's too bad that our Democratic legislators aren't willing to admit what a Pakistani national has the guts to say on national TV.

See all our nobles begging to be slaves!
See all our fools aspiring to be knaves!
All, all look up with reverential awe
At crimes that 'scape or triumph o'er the law;

While truth, worth, wisdom daily they descry:
'Nothing is sacred now but villainy.'
Yet may this verse (if such a verse remain)
Shew there was one who held it in disdain.

How typical - lib/dems completely lack in self-control and vocabulary. Not to mention their total disconnect with facts.

[RepubMommy]

He looked extremely PO'ed by the end of the segment, like he was going to be mad long after he was off the air. Hopefully, he will put that anger to constructive use.

[mathluv]

Which gives him credibility to me.

Ah, but look what happened with Joe Wilson and Joe Wilson's wife. The WH players were in Africa when that broke. They didn't respond meaningfully, and when they did, it looked like butt-covering was going on. The WH wasn't in campaign mode last summer. Now they are; watching Rice go at this guy with a bayonet tells you the difference between now and then.

Rove and his people know that if you trot out Rice to answer charges, the Networks have to cover her, no matter how much the nets want to flog the Clarke book. That's why this morning's contest between Rice and Clarke was so important to have happened.

Sorry, but someone needs to tell Prince John of Beacon Hill that there will be no free rides this year.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

[W04Man]

Yes, I saw both of them back to back. Lovin every minute of it.

Can someone point out the list of things Mansoor has stated that were found to be actually true? I appreciate his response to Clarke, but I don't know if I buy his BS all the time because I've had a hard time finding something he stated or claimed that was true.

Funny you should say that. On another thread, regarding appearances by Condi and Wes Clark on The Today Show this morning, I made a similar comment, to wit:

Ijaz is a riot. He kind of reminds me of Geraldo. He's always very excited about one thing or another, but it rarely seems that his breathless predictions come true. Still, he always comes across as very authoritative, which is helpful!

[sirchtruth]

Ok, I will go look and check all that stuff out. Although I will tell you all I haven't seen one thing Mansoor has said about Iraq WMD that has been true. He has made some pretty bold allegations especially to FoxNews, and O'Reilly about WMD and the Iraq war that to date have not shown themselves to be substansive.

One thing that really PMO was he stated to O'Reilly that sometime around the SOTU address (2004) we would have found a WMD lab underground along with WMD...Why would he state such a thing unless he was 100% sure, because that's what he led O'Reilly to believe.

I'd gather new sources if I were him!

[ReleaseTheHounds]

Rice on her part looked shaken to me.

I think maybe Condi is a bit shaken -- shaken with fury. She normally is completely serene and totally composed -- but this barrage from Dems, the partisan media, the partisan 9-11 panel, and now this former member of her staff have to be taking their toll.

I don't know if I've ever seen a more consistently perfect public figure, in terms of her dealings with the press, public, etc., than Condi. If she appears a bit "off", I think that's because we've come to expect perfection and with all of the missiles coming in from left field, I think it is only natural for her to be a bit off kilter.

Still: she's better than anyone the Dems can hold up. I'm glad the Bushies are now getting out to defend their record.

[Vesuvian]

big media will basically push Clarke's allegations while ignoring any substantial counterpoints or fact verification

Exactly right, and notice how the lies are becoming more and more blatent? Now they're telling people they didn't hear what they heard. Hopefully they will fail in their attempt to annoint Senator Weeble.

[LibLieSlayer]

Chris is correct! Rice was livid. All of you "doomsayers" just sit back and watch the dims implode over this issue. It may be the weekend (or next week) before we see the results, but this is going to be bad for klintoon and the dims!

I agree with you. Unfortunately, one can't go in and fire a 'guvmint' employee, thanks to their union. Unless they are an appointee, once hired, they pretty much have a job for life.

[an amused spectator]

Ah, yes - Simon & Schuster, Hillary's vanity press agent and personal piggy bank.

Americans should remember that these book deals are financed in part through the public libraries - local and university. In effect the Democrats have got their own private slush fund in the libraries.

[Moby Grape]

Don't have to fire them...just get them out of ANY flow of information.

[mewzilla]

Kinda wonder why Simon & Shyster didn't just print the book under the S&S imprint.

[Fresh Wind]

He used a racial slur to describe Ijaz. The Mods are on the ball, as always!
