Unbelievable that people actually will swallow this bile. Blame the spying on Bush - works everytime.

I deeply resent the way this administration makes me feel like a nutbar conspiracy theorist.

Dork.

You have to readsome of the comments being poted at the source, they are comical.

[TomGuy]

hahaha. Surprising they didn't work in that she is a cousin to Andy Card in their headline.

Yesterday afternoon, after the news broke, CNN discovered the Card connection. That connection (though 'distant') became the lead for the story during the remainder of the day.

Card apparently said that she was a distant (second) cousin, had approached him with info, and he was cooperating fully with the investigation.

This is sweet. By their reasoning, Ron Reagan is a member of the vast right-wing conspiracy. The son of the former President is an "anal-yst" for PMSCNBC election coverage.

"Second cousin"? That's pretty thin, don't you think? Of course, if we want to play the "related to the White House" game, we can consider the historic precedents: Roger Clinton, drug dealer; Billy Carter, agent for Libya; Hugh Rodham, pardon peddler.... But you hit the nail right on the head. We can't choose our relatives and Andrew Card certainly isn't responsible for his "second cousin"! Hey, wait a minute... are the liberals back to some kind of ancestral/related guilt theory with this? I better jump over to a "Passion of the Christ" thread.

Good bio info in Susan for your links list.

[Elle Bee]

let me understand this now....

an accident of birth trumps this tratior's associations (dems) of choice?

is that what I'm reading here?

Well, he is a major part of the story – he turned her in.

Kinda tough for them to spin that.

No I didn't miss it, it's linked in the above article

Mosley-Braun's spokeswoman was distancing Carol from Susan. Spokeswoman said they didn't even remember Susan at all.

Lindauer almost certainly had nothing of value to offer the Iraqis or Libyans.

And how do they know this? I guess their use of "almost certainly" is their out when we find out she did.

[COBOL2Java]

Kinda tough for them to spin that.

With the cooperation of the major media, not that hard. The press just has to leave that fact out, and the sheeple who get their news from Tom Brokaw and co. will sit in their living rooms and say "Wow! This woman is connected to the Bush White House!".

[TomGuy]

Well, he is a major part of the story – he turned her in.

Ooppsss....that's the part they omitted from their leads. It was buried deep in the reports, as a passing comment that he was assisting in the investigation. lol.

[mewzilla]

I find her job history interesting. That bears some looking into.

I am like you, I find the subject of the passion very seductive. It revolves aroung freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedome of the press.
