...and what a name that was. (B-stard_
He lied about My Lai and the troops...ruined many lives
to get where he is today...
He is a scumbag POS
imo
One of my poli sci professors told us today to read Hersh's story. I thought...hmm, no thanks.
Not to worry. The only people who believe Hersh are loony leftists and they are not swayed by facts, anyway.
This is about as much a non-issue as the "global warming" hysteria.
"The source for this story is journalist Seymour Hersh."
He isn't a journalist. He is a hack mouthpiece of the left.
Useful Idiots like Hersh allow the administration to threaten Iran while keeping deny-ability.
Can this contention about being stoned be verified?
I think the oil traders are using this as an excuse to jack up oil. Along with everything else.
I can't say I have much use for Hersh.......
"It's long on hype, short on facts. Consider the source of the article," one senior White House official told Fox News"
To be honest though, a senior White House official telling Fox News directly not to worry doesn't exactly make me feel a whole lot better either............
Another ranting leftie caught in a Viet Nam time-warp and still, all these years later, still trying to recapture his shining moment in the spotlight...even if he has to make it up. POS.
Well, he's definitely never made a secret of the fact that he's liberal. He's not as bad as some other professors I've had but sometimes he says things that really irritate me. I make it up with my papers though, letting him know how much I hate the books we're reading.
Good for you! When teaching becomes a platform for a particular viewpoint- it's no longer teaching, is it?
It would not surprise me if the White House and Pentagon knew exactly what Hersh would do with a bogus story...and I think they both wanted him to drag this out. The oil guys might be helped a bit...but I'm guessing that the Pentagon wants the Iranians to prepare for a particular type of attack...which might be totally different from what they'd normally expect.
The amusing thing was to watch the interview with Wolf Blitzer yesterday...and Seymour looked more like a kid in a candy store...detailing how wonderful it was that he had the story and could tell it. I think GW and Cheney set the guy up.
Exactly. A lot of times the information isn't really partisan but if he can work in his opinions to the topic, he will. At least he doesn't subtract points for my viewpoint though. I've gotten As on all my papers.
Hersh is also the guy who paid big money for letters allegedly from JFK to a Ny attorney, discussing his affair with Marilyn Monroe. Trouble is, the letters included zip codes, which weren't in use at the time the letters were supposedly written.
Ha. I was thinking the same thing, that Hersh is under the
influence of Karl Rove.
Seymour Hersh is a loathsome little America-hating pest, but in this case we'd better be planning for far more than he's talking about. If we don't have well-developed contingency plans for destroying every nuke-related facility in Iran then I'd be VERY disappointed. In face, we'd better have a well-studied plan to destroy every military facility in Iran.
.... and we'd sure better not leave any bases of the "Revolutionary Guards" off the target list!!!
