"The administration does not want the victims of Sept. 11 interfering with its foreign policy," says Peter M. Leitner, director of the Washington Center for Peace and Justice (WCPJ). Leitner says the Bush administration may be concerned that if other victims of the Sept. 11 attacks also filed lawsuits and won civil-damage awards it would reduce Iraqi resources that the administration wants to use to rebuild the country. Leitner and others say this explains Bush's reticence at this time to report the convincing evidence linking Saddam and al-Qaeda that has been collected by U.S. investigators and private organizations seeking damages. "The [Bush] administration is intentionally changing the topic," claims Leitner, and sidestepping the issue that "Iraq has been in a proxy war against the U.S. for years and has used al-Qaeda in that war against the United States."
Could anyone link the WSJ story. I don't put much faith in NewsMax to get it right. They can't even sort out their sorry subscription department. I sent in my $45 bucks, got the hat and the cards but never got the magazine. Three calls yeilded no results. I've seen other freepers w/ similar problems. I wish them all the best but they won't get another penny of mine. And I do wonder about how reliable their news is, given my experience. It is my observation that customer service is an excellent indicator of product quality, as counter intuitive as that seems. (Great products don't need service, etc.)
Yup I agree.
As we knew it would .. it was just a matter of time
Beware though ... this means the Left will go into even more of a melt down
I never understood why these American hating traitors would get up there and scream (1) "There is no connection," and (2) "there are no WMD" when any day they could be proven to be wrong.
Doesn't matter, however, because the ultra-left wing media wouldn't report on the connection if there was a tape of it. It does not work toward the destruction of the US, why report it, especially if they can report on the phoney Brit prison pictures, for example.
I wish Dan Burton could have gotten to the bottom of that question..
Boy I would love to see Chrissy Matthews swallow this bag of feathers.
That isn't what Sean Penn says!
Galt finally got kicked out of here? That guy was really a creep. I wonder what it was that he said that finally did it.
Rope-a-Dope a think.
Ill look for the WSJ article.
FYI
Maybe he is waiting for the right moment. We shall see.
bttt
Now, if some summer intern made a comment at a bar that her freind said that she heard that her boyfriend heard some "high ranking official" say that there never was a connection, they'd be on that like buzzards on a gut wagon.
The best toast is TEXAS TOAST! :)
They should serve some to the media the next time the President goes to Crawford to eat with their crow!
The liberal media is already shouting from the rooftops 'Sarin shell before 1991!' so they wont look like compelte fools.
It was the Sarin gas thread. Galt adamantly refused to admit Sarin was a WMD ("The only WMDs are nukes"), and then ramped right up into his Soccer Mom/Hard on Treason/True Conservative/Illegal War sh!t. Nothing worse than an insulting big-mouth that won't admit their wrong (a la Clinton).
You won't see this on CBSNBCABCCNNMSNBC.
