As if William Pitt has contacts at the CIA. What a joke!

[Grampa Dave]

Excellent response.

I have felt that Ritter had been blackmailed by $oddomite or Uday.

I feel the need to point out that truthout.org routinely (as in almost every single day) republishes Washington Post and Los Angeles Times articles IN THEIR ENTIRETY, yet neither newspaper seems even slightly interested in initiating legal action against truthout.org.

Gee, I wonder why.

That is very interesting.

As if William Pitt has contacts at the CIA. What a joke!

Given who was in charge of hiring between 1993 and 2001, probably not. Plenty of moles left, I'm sure.

BUMP Your story just made our local radio show (thanks I believe to a certain FReeper who is behind the scenes there ) Again, Great Work!

[cmsgop]

UHhh, what happend to TLBShow?

He got sent down a Peg ......

[hellinahandcart]

I can't get over the physical likeness between the two. It's like they posted a picture of Ritter by mistake.

Come to think of it, back when Will Pitt announced on DU that he and Scott Ritter were working on a book, my first reaction was to wonder why on earth Ritter would have sought out that drippy little hyperbolizer as co-author.

Now I think maybe the subject just came up over a family dinner...

Great blog. Just saved it to favorites.

Source With No Name

On the first part of the story
I was looking at all the lies
There were slants and slurs and knocks and zings
There were plants and shills and stings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And this guy in cheap shades
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I've been through the newsroom on a source with no name
It felt good to handed my fame
In the newsroom you can remember your name
'Cause ol' C-N-N won't give you no pain..." - PhilDragoo

Thanks for the info. I hope Mr. Thompson doesn't publish in a fit of pique again anytime soon.

Doug Thompson, who many of us old-timers remember from the Clinton years, is in critical condition after hitting a cow while Doug was riding his motorcycle.
Doug was a player in the anti-Clinton campaign with his website Capital Hill Blue. CHB was frequently cited on FreeRepublic during those years. He has since become a big broken-glass Democrat and retired to Floyd County to pursue photography.

I was buying all of this, but come on, stop pulling my leg. I'm sure that your book will be a best-seller, though.

I'm wondering if there is going to be another twist...Mark my words. CHB's Doug Thomas's recent run-in with the cow refreshed my memory. Cows are random players but reliable obstacles.

Ping to this old post of mine, my women's intuition is screeching at me. Of course, it could just be rusty. But...

Does this thread topic remind you of anything currently going on overseas, that involves WMDs? Or anything in DC for that matter. They both involve sex scandals, too. And they both involve Iraq, the UK, Palestinians, al Qaeda, the progressive wing of the Democrat Party, Colin Powell, the Turkish group IHH, bad filmmaking, coincidental dates in September 2001, and mysterious guys from Los Angeles with alias Marc or Mike.

As a sidenote, Cap Hill Blue's Doug Thompson, in this old story involving UNSCOM's Scott Ritter, has very recently ended up in critical condition after an unfortunate random spontaneous incident... bovine intervention. I can't help but wonder if there is more there... there. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/943322/posts?page=159#159

The last I remember seeing Doug Thompson here was when he apologized profusely for... something... Plagiarism? Fabricating/stealing a story? Allowing himself to get conned? I wish I could remember. Anyway, Doug then dropped off the face of the earth.

[Lancey Howard]

Okay. Here is Doug’s posting history here, right up until he disappeared. It seems he went a little off the deep end.

Yes, it’s a familiar dynamic, with some of the same players.

[piasa]

And after 3 years, Doug’s returned after the horrible run in with the Beeve .... just in time for the 2016 election campaign season:
