see #11 and 31 - 'those two pictures, sadly, tell it all. I hope some artist picks up on it and puts them together somehow.'


ZM - any chance you can whip that up??

[bitt]

#32 'It probably won't happen but I want to say it, "Put a post-it on Hillary saying Goodbye 2008.'


I.Church - you're good. Let's see what ZM might do...if she's not too whacked, already.....

[bitt]

When oh when will I ever learn to read thru the whole thread before I post?? ZM, here's one, done already...and very nicely, too!

And to think our safety is in the hands of these posturing boobs.

I do believe Condi appeared rather plastic. She has however been given an opportunity to show the fire in her belly and her push for the new UN Ambassador and some of the things she his doing at state she's gone up a few notches in my book. The GOP needs some young blood.

This has to be one of the greatest "composite" pictures of all time. Thanks for posting it.

Word is that the NYT is going to have a front page story about it tomorrow. Lord knows the drift it will take but I can just guess.

Excellent piece by Lewis, who includes many observations and insights that now elude the MSM. Some call them amnesic, but that's only to be charitable. Omission and mischaracterization are frequent tools when casting opposing views. (Ted Kennedy said as much himself in a Q&A at the National Press Club in 2003.) That hardly serves the best interests of a democracy where all views should be brought to the public forum for discussion and consideration. Paint me as old fashioned, if you will.

Lewis' recounting of the French-forged document passed off to Italian agents for the U.S. State Department is a good case in point:



"The charge against Rove is based on a blatantly forged document, purporting to show that Saddam tried to buy Niger yellowcake uranium. We now know that the document was forged by the French government to embarrass Secretary Colin Powell, and undermine the American case against Saddam at the UN.

It was classic disinformation bait.

Powell flourished the Niger forgery at the Security Council, and the very next day "European intelligence agencies" leaked word that it was a laughable fraud.

Months later, the London Telegraph published the fact that it was all a French disinformation ploy.

The CIA has to know all about the French forgery, just as it knows that Joseph Wilson's famous trip to Niger was pure bilgewater."



COMMENT: I'm almost persuaded that First Amendment press freedoms ought to be proportional to how well the media serves democracy. Thanks for the post.

You have posted or linked to valuable background material that should be mandatory reading for those who want to be knowledgeable on this subject, a group that most assuredly should include the 9/11 Commission members and staff.

May visions of collapsing towers and falling bodies dance in their heads for eternity!

Strangely, CNN emailed a website this morning that may create, unwittingly--as a "game," disturbing visions that linger in our memories.

Jamie Gorelick should have been QUESTIONED under OATH by the Commission nstead of being a MEMBER and asking questions of low level people.....PLEASE CURT WELDON....HELP US PUT THESE CLINTONITES IN PRISON!

[Ann Archy]

We all know that Bush is a PATIENT man.....and like you said, he holds all the cards.....well, maybe it's time for "all in".

[Ann Archy]

You said......"Before Jamie Gorelick even joined the Clinton Justice Department, she also served as one of the chief counsels for the Department of Defense."

Could she be the lawyer that said NO to killing Osama Bin Laden when he was sighted by that drone??????Did Jamie Gorelick let Osama Bin Laden escape????

[Mo1]

Gee .. would these be the same lawyers that stopped us from taking out Bin Laden?

[Humal]

"just saw Coleman on FoxNews - and the question was asked very forcefullywhether this was the info that Sandy Burglar was after.... "

This is one of the questions of the day. What was Coleman's answer?

[bitt]
