Brit Baer on Fox News just announced. Coming up in 1 hour.
Update: 3ID soldier to have briefing about collecting and destroying 200 tons of explosives on April 13.
Who am I hearing??
Is that Fife?
Jeez...Dirita is talking in circles. Get to the point.
That little snip of elBaradei beigng asked about why he sat on this item for 2 weeks was ridiculous,
Stupid Bastards at the UN and the AEAIOAEA!!!
The DUI story in 2000 came out the Friday before election day.
Larry Dirita ... Pentagon spokesman giving leadin!!!!
That was El Baradai, the perp in this entire matter.
Spokesman says early report, people tried to draw conclusions without enough information. They have made an effort to gather more information.
Larry Dirita, Pentagon Spokesman speaking now.
Why isn't this being shown on the MSM networks??? As if I don't already know that answer!
HOLY BACKFIRE BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"We're standing by for the briefing here in Iraq"
Be safe, God bless
I said this days ago:
Did we take the crap?

Sure, there was an embedded reporter at Al Qaqaa on April 10, 2003. But the U.S. was there a week before, and the news was all over the place back then - but it's forgotten now. Here's part of a report from the BBC April 5. (I'd inlclude a US media link from then, but all I could find were stories from outside the US. How quaint):
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2919645.stm
"A senior US official said the white powder found at Latifiya was believed to be explosives, AP reported.
"Latifiya is part of the large Qa Qa military complex south-west of Baghdad."
The NYT announces this Tuesday, defending its recent story:
"Iraq's Ministry of Science & Technology informed the International Atomic Energy Agency in a letter on October 10 that the materials were lost from the Al-qaqaa site after April 9, 2003, through the theft and looting of the governmental installations due to lack of security."
The NYT says that the materials were lost after April 9, which just happens to be the day before NBC comes rolling in. Well, dang, NBC. Sorry about that.
But we were there about April 3. Why wasn't all that stuff "lost" then? Regarding the missing RDX or HMX - wasn't that powder?
Man - what would be hilarious is if the US took it, thus confounding the totally inept UN, and it wasn't until 18 months later they realized it.
Early Reports are often wrong
We are here to tell the facts as they are
People drew conclusions absent of facts
We've been gathering facts
Initial reports suggested that that we couldn't account for those facilities
Since then, we've learned that quantity of RDX was less than initially reported. 100 tons less. more to come...
Goodness, "Rove" is not at the Pentagon.
ROFL!!!!
Fife?
This Pentagon guy sucks.
There is a huge conspiracy against Bush by the mainstream media (with the exception of FNC). I doubt this will get any airplay.
This Larry is droning on. I hope he gets to the point soon.
