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

and Kerry is STILL using the original Wash Post story!!

Yep, he's trying to squeeze water from a rock.

[Mister Baredog]

Don't worry, John Fraud Kerry will say he is sorry today, He was MISINFORMED!

NO he won't, I just heard him repeat this lie less than 30 minutes ago.

[television is just wrong]

Rush mentioned it yesterday on his show. Apparently this stuff was missing before we got there.

Yes,,on FOX just a little while ago,,,Kerry is using the original WP story in Wisconsin as we speak!

Bush Administration Questions Timing of IAEA Weapons Letter

[PajamaTruthMafia]

Our Ambassador to the UN should demand Mohammed El Baradei's resignation immediately if true

That should be done today in the most public way possible! A press conference in front of the UN with harsh words used! It's time for the Bush Admin to get tough!

PING! Bob ... along the same lines of your post of this morning

Media fraud ping

[rotundusmaximus]

Enough already, you are confusing me! LOL

[RightWhale]

the Rather memos were not forgeries.

Paraphrasing won't help. They were forgeries.

[MeekOneGOP]

Yep! Rush was REAL QUICK to pick up on the MISSING fact as to WHEN they came up missing.

Just a little humor, folks.

On his show, Rush is always saying “Hi! Hire you?”
(“Hi! How are you?” A little Southern humor, haha!) .....

[arkady_renko]

You will never hear the words, "I'm sorry" from his mouth about ANYTHING. His ego will not allow it.

Forever more I will refer to the NYT as the DNC Times.

Ping!

"You mean Mr. Pinch Sulzberger......."

The same Pinch Sulzberger who said that in a firefight between a US soldier and the enemy, he'd rather see the American shot.

These are the kinds of folks running our journalism institutions. Fact check everything; there are destructive liars in very high and honored places.

Why isn't this all over the MSM today?

[traviskicks]

Interesting... I must say, I find it hard to believe even El Baradi(sp) would be so brazen as to attempt to smear a sitting US president during an election year. If so, we need to pull out of the UN, no questions asked. But if I had to guess I'd say that the NRO's source may have been misled.

[1Old Pro]

I'm "rather" sure the LA Slimes would be "deeply saddened" to be "left" off your list.LOL

Yep, but it would take hours to list all the offenders.

Appropriately enough, he could pass for Henry Waxman's brother.
