In meetings with top aides and administration officials, the President goes from quoting the Bible in one breath to obscene tantrums against the media, Democrats and others that he classifies as “enemies of the state.”

LOL! This is too funny.

Anyone, in public or private service, that disagrees with the policies of a superior, needs to resign their position. The exception is military service.

If such an employee exists in the White House, speaking off the record is dishonorable. The country would be better served by a White House staff marching to the same tune.

I don't believe a single word of this nonsense. This belongs in here:

"...how that was a rumor put to the winds that had little merit."

Where/what is the status of that story now? No where, no there, there - just like the 'fact'hat Bush is craking up. They both show you don't need fact/truth for a story to become widespread, just the reporting from unnamed sources that something is out there. The 24/7 nature of 'news' only needs a spark to start the conflagation.

As this sort of hit and run style goes mainstream the tendency toward vulgarity likewise will probably increase, it seems as though they've found license.

Are you talking about Doug? Has he been banned? If not, I thought it might be entertaining to ping him here to defend his story.

I thought Capital Hill Blue was Paleo-Con

Who can tell the difference anymore?

Are you talking about Doug?

Yes sir.

Has he been banned?

Definitely not.

If not, I thought it might be entertaining to ping him here to defend his story.

He won't show up. Free Republic exposed him as a "reporter" who invents sources out of thin air. It's been proven and he's admitted it.

He doesn't come here anymore. He's found a much more gullible audience over at DU. They're very dumb. Like Doug.

Sounds like he writes for misleader.com or is trying to get on part time at the Soros foundation.

JULY 10, 2003 : 11:51 AM : (CHB'S DOUG THOMPSON ANNOUNCES HE WILL USE NO MORE UNNAMED SOURCES; CLAIMS HE TURNED THE MATTER OVER TO LAW ENFORCEMENT, BUT DELETES 6 OF THOSE ARTICLES FROM CHB SITE) - "A message from Capitol Hill Blue. . .No more "unnamed sources," DOUG THOMPSON, Jul 10, 2003, 11:51


Recently, this web site discovered it has been played as a sucker by a source that was used in seven stories that ran in Capitol Hill Blue from September 2002 until July of 2003. The person in question was quoted as an unnamed source in six of the seven articles and by name (Terrance J. Wilkinson) in the seventh. We later learned the name was bogus even though I had known (or thought I knew) the person by that name for more than 20 years. We have turned all our information on this source over to the appropriate law enforcement agencies and, at their instruction, will not discuss the matter publicly until they have concluded their investigations. When those investigations are complete, we will publish a full accounting with every piece of detail that we can produce or uncover about the individual involved. We owe that to our readers.

(* My note : I hear Doug has oceanfront property to sell in North Dakota.)

If this isn't a pile of dog doo doo I don't know what is. I heard just the opposite from an insider on the radio just yesterday. This SUCKS, and I don't believe one word of it. Yet another vicious bunch of lies.

Leftists are the masters at propaganda.

This doesn't even measure up to their usual "ve vill hav power vat any cost or lie".
