Thanks, CC. Sparking good interactions among my fellow FReepers provides me lots of positive reinforcement.

Maybe I should read some other posts before I send.

You're a nut case and a conspiratorial freak.

Just kidding.

The liberal media have been spun a couple of times recently by Karl Rove. The Admin has manipulated them to report the worst news first, and then have the news improve. (O'Neill's "revelations") Whoever faxes out the DNC talking points might have decided it is best to get the liberal side's worst news out at this point, which is that Dems have been capitalizing on Kay's reports with some variation of "Bush Lied, People Died."

Therefore, according to predicted spin choreography patterns, the next items to come out will get a little better for Dems. The net effect is to protect the Dems from appearing too overtly partisan on matters of national security.

...according to predicted spin choreography patterns...

Is there actually a play book for this? The media does seem to have patterns in reporting, but has anyone done a study or ...?

I don't suppose we will be hearing any of this on the cable networks.

Let me state the obvious. Brit Hume and Carl Cameron were already broadcasting the equivalent of 'this' last night on Fox.

Lauer: "So scientists lied to Saddam, they told him they could develop WMDs, took huge sums of money and didn't deliver?"

Kay: "Right. There was widespread corruption, lots of money wasted. People were concerned about the money, not about working."

Don't feel for me. Facts still stand. No massiv production of WMDs found

Thanks, M. The secret is the positive feedback I get from my fellow FReepers. Well, that and a handy supply of Nexium!

From a national security and political perspective, what was much more important than the tone of Lauer's questions was the substance of Kay's remarks. Democrats looking to exploit Kay's earlier remarks to accuse the Bush administration of misleading the American people will come away from this interview bitterly disappointed, their arguments in tatters.

For on every issue down the line, Kay forcefully made the case that the Bush administration acted in good faith, that Saddam was indeed a threat, and that war against him was absolutely justified.

What we know, and DNC-AP worked to re-bury, along with the mass graves.
