What a strong intellectual name, hahahahaha.
When is this going to get some traction? Everyone gun shy since Danny-boy pooched?
It'll probably make the MSM November 3.
But they completely believe the forged Rathergate memos.
Foolishness, thy name is liberal.
Bull. It seems OBVIOUS why the reports would be given to CNS. The Liberal Media is just a Democratic Cult and they would burn this information as an offering to their collectivist god, Kerry
"It just seems odd that the article would only be with you guys, not in other major news sources if it is true," Austin said."
As bad as I want these documents to be true--that was my immediate reaction. And it was reinforced by the way CNSN handled it by not releasing all the documents immedieately and providing their provenance.
I'm sorry, but this story is going to be lost because
of credibility problems.
The pro-Saddam Left will never change their minds even if the truth slapped them in the face.
These appeasers doubt the authenticity of reality, for Gods sake.
Never. It contridicts Bush saying that he never had it! It kills me that Bush completely ignores proof that backs him up and the justification to go to war. There was an Al Queda link as well as a Bin Lauden link. And if you can link those together, you can link Saddam to 9/11. But you never hear about Salmon Pak. Just amazing!
"and if they are true, we will of course change our tune"
No they won't change their tune. They will move the goal posts again.
They posted one document and their servers crashed. Posting 42 documents in Arabic isn't going to help most of us.
They have made the documents available for inspection to those who want to bring in their own experts/translators.
So far World Magazine has been the only taker.
How come Fox hasn't sent someone to have them checked out? Or anyone else in the lamestream media? Other than the fact that they don't want this story out.
They ought to get some of the Iraqi bloggers onto it.
It has also been mentioned on Rush and Hannity.
I keep praying they are real and that some are just waiting for their translators to finish transcribing the contents in english and it will bust wide open soon.
They ought to be providing the provenance of the documents up front and center.
You can't just say something like "We got these super-secret documents that the CIA, the DIA, and the intelligence services of all our allies haven't been able to find."
I'm not saying its impossible, but after RAThergate, who will take any documents at face value, especially from a small partisan news source? That's probably the reason that none of the MSM and even Fox have shied away from them.
That's OK - I doubt the authenticity of the so-called "Anti-War Groups"...
Gee, I'm surprised I've never heard this before since "there is just so much evidence".
I've been able to see all the documents in arabic and their translations in pdf format.
OK, OK, even if they WERE fakes, do they think they're going to be able to tell just by looking at them a la Dan Dan the Forger Man?
Let them waste their time on it. It'll keep 'em off the streets for a while.
