Let's see, we have the NY Slimes, a leaky CIA station chief, and an analysis from somebody that says the situation is deteriorating and won't rebound soon.

If I didn't know any better, I'd say this news came from the Kerry campaign via the NYT.

Poor NYT. They have about as much credibility as CBS News. When they finally do get a real unbiased scoop no one will believe them.

I just received an equally secret, but otherwise intercepted, CIA cable that says the New York Times is overrun with Saddam Hussein apoligists and Commies.

"Classified cable sent by the CIA's station chief in Baghdad"

Hey New York Times. We are past the days of using Western Union for communications. You know about that fancy limo with untold millions in sophisticated military electronics gear that the president rides around in? It does not contain a little old man with a telegraph key.

Theres lame...and then theres the NYT.

The NYT always seems to have Tuesday splashes...

Last week the ICRC 'tantamount to torture', now this.

Not at all unexpected. The terrorists don't want elections to occur in Iraq, and they're going to try to destablize the country so that elections won't happen.

They're also hoping we'll decide it's another Vietnam and leave.

You could have a clue there goodness. To find a leak you run something thru the pipe and see where it pops out.

Didn't the military get CNN to misreport the timing of the Fallujah assualt? We'll see but we all know the media.

BTW, I was reading a forum on ebay this morning about a news report on an offering every fact was wrong from the ages to the price. Can jounalists even read?

It just dawned on me, it could be a leak from one of those who are getting thrown out on their ear because they are treasonous, incompentent pigs and I hope they find out who he/she is and prosecute them.

as good as that sounds on the surface, it would be an incredibly bad idea in practice. Some things are more important than unleashing the dogs.

Nice to see the CIA is earning their wages and supporting the troops in our endeavors.

"You might call them "messages" or "email." The Agency calls them "cables."

Didnt see your post before I posted.

I am still dubious that a serious discussion of Iraq would be conducted via email...and not a sophisticated two way spread spectrum crypto encoded voice link.

Maybe its NOT a "leak" from the CIA, but rather an S.O.S. from the terrorists...oops, I mean insurgents.

Oh, tongue-firmly-in-cheek.

I'm just thrilled to know NYT is once again sharing with the world some bit of info that could harm our fellow Americans.
