Well, if she weren't yappin on the phone with Al Qaida, they wouldn't have to monitor her daggone calls.

Anybody reporting on the war on terror is a suspect, IMO.

its about time FR picked up on this. ofcourse it might have just things get lost in the wash. Anyway seen this on liberal sites for a few days...i definately wanted to see our take on this"conservative".

It's been all over the net. Andrea Mitchell asked Risen outright about warrantless wiretapping of Amanpour. The Q&A was on NBC's website - NBC took it down with an interesting explanation.

I say "so what?" Tap 'em all. Reporters are more likely to get tips from bad guys, since bad guys like publicity. Tap the radio and print folks too.

Focus on Andrea. WHy did she ask the question? A tip? Or maybe she just ASSUMED and asked her question based on nothing more.

Could have been coordinated between Amanpour and Mitchell ahead of time too - to "create a tangible embodiment" of the issue.

We are unaware if anyone gives a CRAP but we'll hire some union workers or NYT shills to look into it.

Of course she's a mooslime, why else would she wear the headgear?

Let her be paranoid and worry about having her conversations listened to. The fact that no bench warrants were signed shows otherwize, but it makes her feel more important if she thinks they are listening. If they were, and she did say things that needed closer monitoring, they would have got a warrant so it would be admissable in court

So, her statement is a lie. She DOES KNOW that they weren't listening to her conversations. She's just hamming it up for the media and all the tin-hatters out there.

But we got trapped in an airport listening to this woman rant and rave about the Catholic Church on the day John Paul II died.

I've started complaining to airports about using CNN solely or exclusively on their TVs in the terminals. Next comes the airlines. Why should I have to sit through all that c.r.a.p.?

Oh, I see. He lied about the CNN spokeswoman making a statement to him when she actually just blasted out to everyone on her mailing list. My mistake.

The Amanpour/Rubin alliance (marriage) always gave me the heebie-jeebies

As my mother would have said - at least they didn't spoil two houses.

Rather like Bill and Hill actually.

Yes, she is. That's why I don't trust her. But I had thought she had lived in Lebanon for a long while............

I've taken a moment to read your prior posts. Whether intentional or not, your posts are a discredit to our site.

Considering your quote from Cicero, i find your
opinion of my posts....inconruous.

What should my opinion of your oath be, that
you would find it disgraceful, that I speak
my mind against the blatent enemies of our
government and way of life?

I have no problem with anyone speaking his mind. I draw the line on this forum where Jim Robinson draws the line:

Please enjoy our forum, but also please remember to use common courtesy when posting and refrain from posting personal attacks, profanity, vulgarity, threats, racial or religious bigotry, or any other materials offensive or otherwise inappropriate for a conservative family audience.

I highlighted the areas above that I found objectionable in your posts. Using vulgarities and issuing threats on this forum will discredit the legitimate work and messages of all. Please refrain or I will continue reporting abuse on your posts until you are zotted.

It's nothing personal.

Another note for you... my Cicero quote applies directly to you. Anyone who would undermine the good work done on this site by debasing it (especially when he appears to be one of us) is easily the subject of the quote.
