My guess: Iran's determination to further its nuclear program is tied directly to our decision to invade Iraq, that Iran warned us as such, and it's Bush's fault that Iran is pursuing nukes.

it'll probably be something like a picture of Rummy shaking hands w/Sadaam when Iraq was our Ally and saying that he personally gave them nuke capability or something ridiculous.

Your guess is pretty close to my guess: a Republican administration secretly gave/sold nuke technology to Iraq.

I had that thought (or something similar) too...see #25 above.

Even if hit piece, I expect an Osama tape, a Saddam Hussein guilty verdict, and more focus on national security. In some measure this hurts the RATS, particularly if we unleash the Dick Morris commercial.

All true, but I don't know what they're planning to put in this "news" story...could be good, could be bad, but either way, it will be interesting.

"HIT PIECE HIT PIECE HIT PIECE."

Doesn't smell good to me either!

Quick..somebody see who is 'lined up' for the Sunday News Shows!! I just want it on record before the 'bomb' drops!

How long until the paper comes out?

For this to be true I would posit it would have to be so ridiculously obvious that the NYT can't deny it,

You mean they'd actually have to be paying attention to stuff like the truth about the Niger uranium and the recently declassified docs?

You're right, that is a ridiculous notion!

Headline I'd like to see:

Date: Nov 9, 2006; Having assured itself a majority in both houses of Congress, today the Bush administration unsealed indictments for the editor and staff of the NY Times for sedition and treason.

Hey, I can dream!

What? First of all, there would be nuclear fallout all over Iraq, the Middle East and stretching into Asia. Second, why in the world would we need a nuke positioned in Iraq?

Because Bush is trying to plant nukes over there to prove they were there before the war dontchano? /s

So we are all sitting here worried about a newspaper in decline, read only by the far left on the east and west coasts having an anti-Bush article plastered across the front page?

Anyone reading this paper has already decided they are voting RAT. Will not make a bit of difference in Montana, Virginia, Tennessee, Missouri or any flyover state.

Maybe they have the source for the leak, if the NYT's story was obtained from one.

The thread said that it was necessary for the announcement to be done on Saturday morning.

Pollock's book was quite good. Afterward, like most of the Liberals (he'd worked for Clinton, by the way), he developed amnesia on what he'd written and said. Future historians will call it the best kept secret the MSM ever cooperated in keeping.

While that is true, it is important to remember that the media is the propaganda machine of the Dems. Look at the way they all rallied around Kkerry when his treachery was plain as day.
The drive by media will run with whatever this is right through the Sunday morning shows.
Mehlman better get on the phone with his boy Rove and come up with some last minute magic. Things are just too tight all over the country to let the Dems get last licks.

What I can't understand is that I have seen no commercial promoting the fact that there have been NO terrorist attacks in the 5 years since 9/11.

Voiceover: If you believe the terrorists were satisfied on 9/11 and never intend to strike us again ... vote Democrat

If you believe the terrorist threats that they will try to destroy America ... and you want to be protected ... vote Republican

That would be a dream come true!! I am afraid though, that if the NYT is flipping the latest puke burger to Drudge..they are on the same old divide and conquer the conservatives path!!

This does not sound good at all.

any idea what this might mean?

IMHO - It's something that will make President Bush look bad, or something that will keep conservatives from voting, or something that will demoralize our people and make liberals feel great.

Or it's something that will undermind troop morale or boost the terrorists. Or all of the above. The New York Times has weighed in - they're fighting for the dems...

the real question we should be asking is - why the RNC has no apparatus to know what is going on. the entire US media is against us, and these stories "pop up" in every election cycle in the last weekend, and we are always blindsided by them.

I bet this is positive. Think of it this way, Friday is the last possible day they could publish pro-GOP Iraq news. They cannot hold it until after the election - that would be even too much for them. Waiting to publish it on Friday means that dems could take a hearty lead and GOP will only have 2 news days to defeat it. And after thousands of absentee ballots have already come in.

I predict good news on Iraq front for GOP. Thanks, Rove.

Well, there it is. It's a dud. In that it's something the Dems and the MSM can spin endlessly but there are probably A LOT of holes in the story. In other words, an attempt to get the Kerry flap off the charts. I'm still of the mind that Rove and Co. have something up their sleeves.

I agree, the hate from MSM, Hollywood, Rosie Odonnell, the View Crew, Letterman, Leno and on and on is way to strong.
They want to bring down the Bush Admin anyway they can and that is their ONLY goal. I hate to think what will happen on Tue, if the dims win. They will start impeachment process as soon as they can.
