Nah, they'll just double up on Lacey Peterson and Iraqui prisoner abuse reports.
You mean the leaders he was constantly running into at "21" in NYC?!
Bookmark this thread...for you may never hear about this again....other than FOX NEWS.
Nothing.
What a great picture you posted!
Wow, Putin has been coming to Bush's defense with increasing frequency.
I am afraid that the NYT is closed today and I doubt that they will see this item. Oh no.
Could Putin be one of those world leaders who wants Kerry to win? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, snort, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Gooood point!!!
Out west here and I've heard about the story but before I could read more I got on the live thread for President Bush.
Before I read replies I must note what I just heard on CNN after President Bush spoke.
Wolf Blitzer covered this story and said:
"My antenna are up", then he was wondering about the timing and that Putin was just at the G-8 summit and spoke with GWB privately a couple times.
Blitzer came very close to saying they cooked up this story.
I then heard the reporterette with Bush in Washington say Sean McCormack, WH spokesman, said they don't usually comment on intelligence, so they had no comment on the report at this time.
Soooo, how is it that Holbrooke opposes the GWB moves (which were passed by both houses of Congress by huge majorities)? Because he's a lying liar, unlike the victims of Al Franken's latest POS.The Fog Of Invented FactsThe invented fact here is that Atta was on the CIA's watch list. Nor was he on any other government watch list prior to September 11th. Its repetition lays down a fog about the responsibility for the attack. For example, Ambassador Richard Holbrooke, when lecturing at the JFK Library on Oct 4th, 2001, described the "law enforcement failure" of September 11th as follows:
by Edward Jay Epstein"To understand how bad it was, you need look no further than the specific movements of Mohammed Atta, who was probably the mastermind of these attacks, all of which has now been in the newspapers. The CIA put him on the watch list of most wanted terrorists in the world sometime in the early summer or late spring of this year... It is clear, therefore, that the FBI. and the FAA. don't talk to each other, that the FBI. never gave the watch list names to leading American airlines"
Missing Links FoundRemember how anti-liberation politicians and journalists pooh-poohed Colin Powell's February 2003 speech to the U.N. about the presence in Iraq of a Qaeda associate, identified in this space as Abu Musab al-Zarqawi? Powell's assertion had this "sensitive reporting" basis: "As of Oct. 2002 al Zarqawi was setting up sleeper cells in Baghdad to be activated in case of a U.S. occupation of the city." ...Feith's intelligence summary available to senators: "The Czech counterintelligence service reported that the Sept. 11 hijacker [Mohamed] Atta met with the former Iraqi intelligence chief in Prague, al Ani, on several occasions. During one of those meetings, al Ani ordered the IIS [Iraq Intelligence Service] finance officer to issue Atta funds from IIS financial holdings in the Prague office." ...Though the C.I.A. can confirm two Atta trips to Prague, in 1994 and 2000, it cannot confirm the two other visits the Czechs reported, including one on April 9, 2001, with Saddam's top European agent, al-Ani, then vice consul in Prague. C.I.A. chief George Tenet testified that the meeting reported by the Czech service was "possible," but the F.B.I. floated hints that car rental records showed Atta to be traveling between Virginia and Florida that week. Enter the writer Edward Jay Epstein in the liberal online journal Slate: "All these reports attributed to the FBI were, as it turns out, erroneous. There were no car rental records in Virginia, Florida, or anywhere else in April 2001 for Mohamed Atta, since he had not yet obtained his Florida license." You cannot rent a car without a driver's license.

George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent
Wasn't there thread back then about this??
I keep thinking of that meeting where Putin came to Camp David for a visit
Hey Grampa Dave .. do you remember that .. and the comment Putin made?
One more note on the CNN report:
Wolf had on the female reporter with the very short hair--Jill something?--and she cautioned that there was no specific plot detailed in the Russian warning.
Well, that's fine and dandy, except the whole brouhaha with the August 6, 2001 PDB about Al Qaeda planning to attack the U.S. was also general and not specific, yet the libs claim Bush was supposed to have "done something" to stop 9/11 before that happened.
IF this is true, that Russia tipped us off to a desire of Saddam to attack us, I would think these same people would applaud our actions.
But we know they are not motivated by principle, but how they can twist details to use as a weapon against President Bush. They care nothing about the security and safety of our country, or have any idea what the meaning of honor and duty are all about.
The only response from kamp kerry (regarding this Putin statement) this morning, from what I can tell, is a proposal to raise the minimum wage to 7 dollaros.
I copied, pasted and e-mailed it to everyone in my address book.

Just got home and missed all this. Thanks for the reporting on the reporting. Hah!
Wolf Blitzer and others will come very close to saying this is all a lie. Any day now. I'm just waiting for it.
Just listening to Rush as I came home. He gave a long, long list of the place where we KNOW that Al Qaeda has existed, trained and attacked. Then he said:
"We even know Al Qaeda was in Florida. But they couldn't have been in Iraq. Nope. Impossible".
LOLOLOL
I do think we're seeing a tipping point with the media.
I will have to read the live thread today with President Bush speaking to our troops, but Rush said the president read something from Rush's website.
It's an article by the NYT 18 months after Belin fell. It sounds EXACTLY like the media today 17 months after Baghdad fell. Go President Bush!
I think what was more revealing was Putin cryptic remark after his last visit to America, and he didn't go to the ranch.
Apparently GW gave him some data on $oreA$$ and some Ruskies who wanted Putin out of the way.
I can't remember his exact remark but in my decoding he said "That GW had shared some scary data with him. Then he Putin had to go home to clean up some messes!"
Hopefully some Freeper who keeps better records from me will link us up.
(BTW, re: as well as the New York Times and their request for an apology. ----Who requested an apology? I'm behind my reading this morning)
bttt
You have that right. The liberal media will say nothing about this.
