... But who else might have known about this ammo dump story? I have a surprise sound bite for you all. I'm going to go back to the October 8th presidential debate in St. Louis. Charlie Gibson moderated that debate. Listen to John Kerry, this is a 30-second bite. It gets real interesting about 20 seconds in.
KERRY: You rely on good military people to execute the military component of the strategy. But winning the peace is larger than just the military component. General Shinseki had the wisdom to say you're going to need several hundred thousand troops to win the peace. The military's job is to win the war. The president's job is to win the peace. The president did not do what was necessary, didn't bring in enough nations, didn't deliver the help, didn't close off the borders, didn't even guard the ammo dumps. And now our kids are being killed with ammos right out of that dump.
RUSH: What dump, senator? What did you know back on October the 8th that the New York Times didn't report until October 25th? What ammo dump are you talking about, senator? Are you talking about the ammo dump that had no ammo in it that the New York Times made a big story of yesterday that's totally false and fraudulent? How did you know about this, senator, if that's the ammo dump you're talking about? The ammo dump with no weapons in it that therefore could be killing none of our troops? Which ammo dump are you talking about?
I remember him saying that and thought I was stupid for not knowing what he was talking about! Guess it wasn't just me.
THIS WHOLE THING STUNK OF A SET-UP RIGHT FROM THE GET GO.

Yup!
Kerry, the DNC, the NY Times, WaPo all in cahoots from the start.
It was the emphasis he placed on it more than anything - it was like he knew something we (audience) didn't, using his authoritative tone, like when he explained his delusions of meeting with the UN Security Council. Now it seems clear why there was that tone in his voice and why it stuck out - he made a slip and either (almost) let the cat out of the bag - OR - ala Mary Cheney - they knew, ahead of time, this was going to be a follow-up attack and Kerry was setting the table for the smear yet to come.
HUGE Catch... sure looks like sharing of information between the NYT and Kerry's campaign.
Ditto!
Let's not forget who strategerically baited the hook in the first place.
Hey what is with that voice Kerry is always using? Like Mr. Authority, it makes me sick, is that his "jengis" kahn voice? LOL what a moron. I actually hate the guy.
Is it just me? Or was it the lighting in the ad?
Either way. Didn't Kerry look kinda "Orange"?
I'm guessing the ad was made just before the first debate. Perhaps over the weekend prior.
Just some thoughts.
Jack.
Caught! I remember him saying that but I didn't have any idea at the time what he was talking about.
Lame.

Also was likely talking about the left over munitions being used in IEDs and car bombs. Iraq had millions of old munitions.
These guys are two of the best friends us"Peasants With Puters" have
You know I always knew that the MSM was biased but working hand and glove with the Kerry Campaign? It's hard to believe even with the evidence staring you in the face. Truly frightening.
