Bomb-Gate(Ammogate) NY Times Iraqi arms story based on a false letter! (HERE WE GO AGAIN!)
National Review ^ | Cliff May

Posted on 10/26/2004 7:15:43 AM PDT by The G Man

This is a post by NR writer Cliff May on their "Corner" blog at NRO:

BOMB-GATE [Cliff May]

Sent to me by a source in the government:

“The Iraqi explosives story is a fraud. These weapons were not there when US troops went to this site in 2003. The IAEA and its head, the anti-American Mohammed El Baradei, leaked a false letter on this issue to the media to embarrass the Bush administration. The US is trying to deny El Baradei a second term and we have been on his case for missing the Libyan nuclear weapons program and for weakness on the Iranian nuclear weapons program.”

(For the record, I don’t reveal my sources so if that means I end up sharing a cell at Sing-sing with Judy Miller, so be it.) Posted at 10:00 AM

Bo Snerdly is James Golden, Rush's screener.

"Kerry is not going to change the story (lie) he is repeating, he figures that with the MSM on his side and approximately one week left, there won't be time for anything to be done before 11/2."

I believe you are right. The enemy ran out of ammo and is firing blanks, hoping to keep Bush on the defensive for one more week. It's home stretch and finish line tactics. They are deliberately running with bold-face lies and care not a whit about their credibilty or the damage they are doing.

Dribbling under the basket with a deflated basketball with seconds to go in the game. 'Hey, ball. Bounce, dammit!'

I think the expression is 'FULL-COURT PANIC!'

(But fear not. Lucy is holding the football for their last field goal attempt.)

I said it last night and I'll say it again.

Dr. El Baradei must be a fledgling member of the Blame America First club. He barely got this one off the ground before it smashed back down in his face.

OK, Fishtalk, you've got to help a FReeper out here. I've been listening to Rush since 1993, and I still don't know what the Snerdly scoop is. At first (in the olden days), I heard he was a real person, a screener for Rush, who also had his own radio talk show. But recently I heard Rush say he's not real, just an imaginary guy whom he used to voice different opinions, that he'd then rebut, or agree with. So, what's the deal?

Much as I'd like to help out yon Freeper I am afraid I can't. Because I don't know if Snerdly is real or not. Check the Blog tomorrow because I will post my answers and I do say I don't know to the Snerdly question.

Perhaps RushCrush knows the answer.

When I first heard Rush talking about Snerdly and referring to him as a 'program observer' it was the first time my daughter and I were listening to Rush together.

She asked what was a program observer and I, with an air of great knowledge, told her that radio hosts needed program observers to the public will know they are really on the air and the talk was not coming from a tape.

Well it made sense to me but I did make it up. Didn't want my daughter thinking I didn't know the answer.

I also heard Rush tell a caller that Snerdly wasn't real and I even sent Rush an email telling him my daughter story and how I was fooled (I'm a 24/7 subscriber). My husband and I even had an argument about it; he said Snerdly was real and I quoted Rush's response to the caller.

Recently I heard Rush refer to Snerdly again when another caller asked why Snerdly doesn't talk.

That whole conversation made me think Snerdly was real but, alas, once again....I don't know if Snerdly is real or not.

And that's the truth.

"Have you ever noticed that magazines often have full page inserts that don't quite look like the advertisements they are? But at the very top of the page there is the word "advertisement" written repeatedly. This is because there is a law covering this that the public not be deceived."

That being the case, the major print media should have the word 'advertisements' on top of Page One.

haha! Whoa, Nellie! :^D

My cousin used to have a dairy farm in Northeast Texas back in the early 70's. I was going to college at the time at UT-Arlington.

During Spring Break, I went out there for a few days just to get away.

While I was there, she demonstrated the art of artificially inseminating a cow for me. What a mess !!

Seems the Senator's INTELLIGENCE is a little slow, or he just doesn't care whether he speaks the TRUTH or not

While he doesn't care if he is telling the truth or not, he is going to need a wireless link with Drudge this week to keep up with his talking points getting blown out of the water.

Well this is news to me. I'm going to add this to my answer post going up tomorrow.

The answer seems to be that Snerdly is BOTH real and unreal.

At any rate, I LOVE that name.

"I think the UN doesn't want President Bush to win reelection because they have a lot of dirt they need Kerry to sweep under the rug. I hope they all rot in hell."

That's for damn sure - Kofi Annan is stonewalling on the Oil for Food investigation because of "confidentiality agreements" with companies who did business with Saddam. What kinda BS is that? Foreign governments took bribes and kickbacks to the tune of $1 billion+++ and helped Saddam skim $10billion for his own use. It was a conspiracy not only against the US but the Iraqi people, it was why the French and Germans shattered any hopes of diplomacy working when they UNILATERALLY said they'd veto any resolution to use force. When you take the threat of force off the table, diplomacy isn't worth squat when you're dealing with thugs like Saddam.

Why is so much of the world too stupid to see this? Radical leftist governments and a banner-waving world media for one... But we can't just abandon the UN - it needs to be reformed from within somehow... We need a forum for nations to come together, we need dialogue and true partnership for democracy - that is vital to the survival of the US and the expansion of freedom.

If John Kerry gets elected he's gonna go crawling back to the UN on his knees begging to service those hypocrites and sign away the US's sovereignty to them. Bush will tell them where they can take their complaints.

Please people, help make this election go the RIGHT way. Please help get out the vote on Tuesday. This election will be won or lost in Ohio and Florida, and we're up against George Soros and other rich, anti-US, pro-UN financiers chomping at the bit to cram ballot boxes full with votes from illegal aliens, homeless drug addicts, and social security leaches. The GOP needs to organize to get out honest, hardworking citizens to have their voices heard and the right choice made.

I make bupkiss for money (working in an academic job in a sea of anti-Bush, anti-America rhetoric) but I've given about $200 to help them rent vans and organize real American folks to the polls.

Please save our country! Donate to the GOP:

Prayers will help, but we need dollars too!!!

If we don't win, I fear the consequences:

Our local paper FRESNO BEE printed the lie in its entirety with no mention of the truth as reported on NBC. Amazing. Can we do anything or do we just have to roll over and let the lies stand?

Insert smile here.

Well that WAS my recommendation to Blog readers. The show was about dirty and messy jobs and dang if they didn't show the whole thing...the stallion mounting the mount block, the 'tease mare' and the show's host holding the artificial vagina up to the appropriate collection spot, ahem, which was artfully blurred out lest we see an erect stallion's private parts.

Dang, I was mesmerized.

And I can't imagine doing that with a BULL!

Unfortunately, we need the forged letter. Having that little blip from Cliff May won't cut it.
