Al-Jazeera Propoganda ^ -- -- I have a little blurb here that I got earlier today from another website. We're already seeing rumblings of the next big thing for the Democratic Party. It's impeachment. Let me count them: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten different web links that you can click on and find impeachment websites or petitions for people to sign. Now, they're kooks. They're kook sites but, hey, who is dictating things to the Democratic Party these days? They're kooks. I told you before last year's election, "If Bush wins this, keep a sharp eye. They'll start on impeachment,"

John Conyers ^ | 6/2/05-- -- WikiPedia has lots of info on this and any reaction from Tony Blair, Jack Straw and Condi Rice: CLICK When the document was published, UK Prime Minister Tony Blair denied that anything in the memo demonstrated misconduct and said that it added little to what was already known about how British policy on Iraq developed. |

When moonbats make outrageous claims, they are ignored, which is the only effective way to deal with morons and the insane.
This writer is behind the news. This tripe has been on the Democrat web sites for over two or three weeks now. The Democrat frustration of not getting people to believe "Bush Lied" is getting to them. They KNOW Clinton & Co. lied through their collective teeth, and they just can't stand it that Bush is not lying to everyone. They are losing their "everyone does it" excuse for Clinton and all the Democrats who are regularly caught lying to the public. The overall success of this Bush administration is driving Democrats insane.
Bush Asked To Explain UK War Memo -- The crazy thing is that the British public really are not that bothered. We are more concerned about the EU and mass immigration.
A New Memo-gate? Knight Ridder Covers Leaked British Document That Disputes Bush Claims on Iraq -- If memory serves, by October of 2002, Bush and Powell (with the support of Tony Blair and Powell) were beginning to do the UN Dance in preparation for sending troops and materiel to Kuwait.
It appears to me, then, based on this information, that there is neither smoke nor fire and the Times is trying to create a nonexistent controversy to drive the newly elected PM Blair out of office a bit earlier than he might already be planning to go.

IMPEACHMENT TIME: "FACTS WERE FIXED." -- Perhaps this is also a good time to point out to the morons on the left that the word "fixed" when spoken/written by an educated Brit doesn't mean "manipulated".
The literal definition of fixed: To determine with accuracy; ascertain.
It should be noted that downingstreetmemo.com was put together by a bunch of Daily Kos readers....and is linked to by the DNC website.
I just thought I'd point that out since they claim to be nonpartisan.

That must have taken a couple minutes to throw together...It's actually pretty fast ( trade secret )-- I simply hilite the headline here and copy & paste it to a new letter in Outlook Express... adding whatever links & quotes I find... when I'm ready to post it, hitting "source" on the bottom tab on the letter reveals the html coding normally hidden. Simply copying that over here is all that is necessary. It also works ( most of the time! ) with pictures and graphics.

How the Left plans to impeach Bush (call to action) -- The Dems want to use the already disproven memo that supposedly shows that Bush intentionally faked intelligence info to start the war in Iraq.
This is just further evidence that
the attack on GW back durring the election by CBS was a Democrat scheme - and they are dumb enough to try it again.

The Emily Litella Memo (Updated!)
David Sanger at the New York Times discovers another memo from British sources that completely undermines the central argument of the Downing Street Memo -- which is that the Bush administration had fixated on a military solution to Iraq and had started to twist the intelligence in July 2002 to justify the invasion. Instead, as Sanger reports, another memo dated the same week at the DSM reported to Tony Blair that Bush had not yet made up his mind what approach he wanted to take with Saddam Hussein--
UPDATE: The text of the Emily Litella Memo can be found here., with links to the other two pages at the bottom. Far from being a companion piece to the DSM, the memo -- as I noted above -- specifically contradicts the intelligence given by "C" in the minutes of a meeting of British cabinet ministers.
