shadow government

In a way the permanent gov always works that way-- they always think it's their job to "break in" a new administration to the "realities" as they define it.

The fact that this subverts the democratic process doesn't seem to bother them. And, in the case of Pres. Bush, they met a politician of the rare character who knew what right and wrong were, and was not going to put on the kneepads and kiss the butts of tyrants abroad while bowing to all the "nuanced" excuses for evil spewing from the self-appointed elites among the chattering classes.

Pres. Bush has shown them all to be the ignorant accomplices of a corrupt international system that endangered the US, and they will never forgive him for it.

"I never said Iraq didn't try to buy uranium, not one time.
I just never said they did."

Richard Clark asked around and was told it didn't happen.

Amazing how politics can cloud the mind isn't it?

Didn't Wilson admit that Iraq had tried to buy uranium from Niger in 98 or 99 in his book anyway?

Wilson, painfully, always proves that Niger did not "buy" uranium from Iraq, eschewing the words "tried" and "sought".

He reported back to the CIA that a Niger official did tell him about such a contact. Also, Wilson recently met with this fellow again, who now says he realizes the person was Baghdad Bob. BB worked in the foreign ministry at the time.

This can't be true! Wilson, Devilpins and the rest of the yellowcake crowd said it wasn't so!

A google news search (Nigerien uranium) found the posted article and an article (Nigerian uranium) about how Joseph Wilson blew the whistle on the phony Niger uranium sale.

It's still early. I am sure the employees of our mainstream media will have this story out by nightfall. I'll keep checking. I know they won't fail to get the story to the American people. It's their job. I can't wait to see it. This was a really big story I am sure the employees of the mainstream media want to get this latest development out to the public. They are probably uploading the story now. Can't wait for tomorrow's newspapers. I'll just wait here by the computer. . . .

So much for the supposable forged memo (UN claimed it didn't happen)

They found yellow cake all over Iraq. What's the issue?

They had two tons of enriched uranium in their nuclear facility at Al Tuwaitha.

I,too, shall hold my breath! Just think of the headlines. Wow! Only in American can we be comforted knowing that dedicated journalists across the land never rest until the facts are accurately reported.
