"Just how and why they did it so efficiently, we will have to wait for much later hsitorians and better documentation than we have now, but they managed to overcome the bureaucracy, Congress, the press, with the greatest of ease.'"

I had thought Hersch saw himself as overcoming the bureaucracy. His comment is telling, suggesting his information from whatever faction in the govt. is weak.

His Vietnamization of his argument is near Kerry-esque.

Dear Seymour: When you get a majority of the electorate on your side, then you can run the government. It's not a cult, it's the government the U.S. public voted for.

Let us not be hasty negative reactions on this "cult" deal. Cults are protected by the ACLU. Some cults sanction human sacrifice. As an "investigative reporter", I'll bet Seymour would love to infiltrate a secret cult meeting...

How can anyone consider him an objective reporter after stuff like this.

I mean anyone who goes into maniacal rantburg like this should not be trusted to produce articles for the mainstream press.

If you think about it, if the Iranians believed what he wrote last week, that could start a devasting war.

Shouldn't he be locked for national security or something?

>'The amazing thing is that we have been taken over by a cult of eight or nine neo-conservatives that have somehow grapped the government

You just know the Left
must be aching to embrace
the Icke theory

that the Bush family
is infused with lizard blood
down from outer space!

Hersh is as biased as a stiff erection and a self appointed hitman for the left.

His principle purpose in life is to dig up crap to fling at the Bush administration or any conservative in power.

Did Hersh mention that he reported in Vietnam? :-)

Here is the thing about aliens...they aren't alien. Check "nephilim" in the Book of Enoch, and Michael Heiser on Amazon, and remember...this is what is behind the left and Islam...

"Just how and why they did it so efficiently, we will have to wait for much later historians and better documentation than we have now, but they managed to overcome the bureaucracy, Congress, the press, with the greatest of ease.'"


So the majority of Americans (those who twice voted for Bush! and for republicans in Congress since Newt's Reformation in 1994) DID manage to overcome the bureaucracy, the PRESS, and the (lying democrats in) Congress.

Despite those times when the press TRIED to lead us in a different direction?

So, he's admitting the press IS deliberately against conservatives in general, and Bush in particular!

And, by the way, he's absolutely REJECTING the majority of Americans who recognized the democrats lies for what they are.

I agree. If Hersh really had information about secret operations in Iran, shouldn't he have kept it quiet?

Hersh is the author of 'Chain of Command: The Road from 9/11 to Abu Gharib.' He spoke last month at the Wise Free Synagogue in New York.

Looks like he found his niche.

.........that have somehow grapped the government.......

"grabbed"?

For a bunch of supposed important journalists they sure don't know how to spell.
