1 false in every respect.

2 is irrelevent as regards the truth revealed in those sources.

3 has nothing to do with Saudi Arabia nor its banks.

4 false in every regard. The most significant information comes from Iraqi intelligence personnel which actually did the training. The recent interviews support the information first disclosed two years ago.

5 missles with a range greater than that allowed by the UN sanctions were found by our military but I suppose they are just another set of liars.

Eighteenth century liberalism is today's conservativism.

The only thing I was wedded to was my late wife and the truth. She died and people like you and the RATmedia have not been able to kill the latter.

Do you have links showing Chalabi's lies? I've asked others, always with no response. Thanks,

"Eighteenth century liberalism is today's conservativism."

On Fox News anyway...

and according to anyone who knows anything about the philosophy. Freedom is the essence of classical Liberalism.

The French revolutionaries that defined your employment of the term 'freedom' Enlightenment Era liberalism brought us the Reign of Terror, the Reign of Napoleon, spawned Marxism and its less violent cousin socialism, and Rousseau's famous logic so embraced by the current crop of ahem 'Murdoch Conservatives':

"whoever refuses to obey the general will shall be compelled to do so by the whole body. This means nothing less than that he will be forced to be free."

Indeed, you and I agree, though with different perpsectives, with Rothbard's statement:

"Social democracy is still here in all its variants, defining our entire respectable political spectrum, from advanced victimology and feminism on the left over to neoconservatism on the right.
See tagline...

Me, I will stick with traditional and conservative definitions of 'freedom' held be Celtic peoples for a couple millenia now.

Rousseau is hardly a classic Liberal. Hume, Adam Smith, even Jefferson are more in that mold. Nor did his philosophy influence the American Revolution the political manifestation of classical liberalism.

French revolutionairies defined NO terms for me except possibly "terrorism" the philosophy which animated that revolution soon turned away from real liberalism.

I thought you might be interested in some Iraq/AQ links:

Monsoor Ijaz said today that Clarke knew full well that Saddam and OBL were working hand in glove for years and challenged Clarke to appear on any television show to debate this matter. Practically called the guy a liar.

What Clarke would just as soon we forget:

Okay - here are just a FEW of the links between terrorism and AQ specifically and Iraq.

ONce again Bush has played this beautifully. After months of whines from the RATmedia about this commission and years of lies about there being no connection between AQ and Iraq. IN THE FACE OF OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE. They are going to get their fill of this as it blows up in their face and the whole country is shown EXHAUSTIVELY of these connections and more.

These fools are going to wish they never heard of the 9/11 Commission after the lyin' skunk Clarke is publicly disemboweled this afternoon. Once I realized that ex-Gov. Thompson was a member I knew the RATmedia darling, Clarke, was going to get his. Thompson and Lehman will eat him alive in cross examination. And the incompetent lightweights/has beens and never will bes which will try and carry the RAT line will be shown to be grossly out of their league.
