Not sure..

[defconw]

Thus they are struggling to maintain and relive their relevance.


Both the MSM and the Democratic Party! To someone my age Watergate looks terribly ridiculous, grown men running around a parking garage in the middle of the night? Rearranging flower pots? Sounds like a really bad made for TV movie!
Now if we want to talk about crimes and corruption , just how did Vincent Foster end up dead in a park and yet there was no blood any where near his body? How could he still be holding the gun? I'd like to ask the Clintons about that!

What has Brit to do with anything? No wait, I am not going down this path you wish to begin.

Thanks!

Did anyone notice that Ben-Veniste said Howard Dean instead of John Dean? LOL

I heard some of the 5pm replay, and heard BV say "I would not give my medal of freedom to him.... Obviously BV sees himself as equivalent to a POTUS, who gets to choose Freedom Medal recipients.

[jayef]

Reminds me of the Brit nanny who kept trying to explain to the jury here what she meant when she said she "popped the baby on the bed". Does anybody else remember that? I've been saying this all along. Only a very Dowdified reading of the memo . . . which is a second hand account of events . . . could lead you to the conclusion that anything wrong was going on.

[rodguy911]

If Bush didn't write the memo who the hell cares what it says. It reads like an "opinion memo"IMHO anyway. What are the rats going to claim? I just don't get it.

He thinks rather highly of himself doesn't he? To bad I never knew he was and now that this little chattering by the nattering nabobs is over Ben-Veiniste can fade back into obscurity!

[rodguy911]

I like the sanitization theory, could be the truth.

[rodguy911]

I have been told they are the most accurate.

[defconw]

It reads like opinion memoIMHO anyway.


I concur with your assessment!

[defconw]

Al Haig is on C-Span 1

[jackbill]

He seems smarmy to me!

He IS smarmy.

[rodguy911]

Nothing new there longterm that's exactly how they play the game. And we counter their lies and half truths on talk, FNC sometimes, and here on the web. It's the latest game going; Old Media vs. New Media. The difference is they(the old media) are dying and we aren't.

Amnesty Intl. Were they out there for the children, the boys and girls, the mother and father, that Saddam held and destroyed in prison? Did they catch clinton's attention.

What was with Liddy, kept saying there was a story to tell - for later and that is all he said. He certainly was quiet today. Ben-Veniste took over the show - sounded like new talking points are out there - mentioned 'the hate' the republicans have for dems.

Judge Sirica - had forgotten that name.

Juan Williams praises Dean's words. "Lets be fair to Howard Dean." Says he is needed out there. Juan should listen more to what hillary clinton is out there saying. Heck - Dean is just following the example of hillary's 'hate those dirty, evil, and mean Republicans' speeches she sneaks in there.

[defconw]

Good than it's not just me! Anyone watching C-Span, some moonbat trying to get Haig to say there is corruption in the Bush Administration. Fortuately he was to smart to take the bait!

Also where are the tributes to Ronald Reagan?

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

If Bush didn't write the memo who the hell cares what it says. It reads like an "opinion memo"IMHO anyway. What are the rats going to claim? I just don't get it.

Well, clearly they are going to try to make something out of it, and with the help of the MSM they will churn up the airways for awhile....but they will likely have more sh** memos to use to inflame their base!

And as Rathergate shows us there is likely someone in their cottage industry at work preparing another secret memo!!!

[maica]

I hope you keep monitoring the beauty shop gals. (And keep sharing what you observe with FR.) They are much more representative of where America is headed than any CNNetc poll.

[jayef]

The words fix and intelligence appear in a sentence in a memo written by a Brit Agent summarizing a planning meeting between Bush and Blair! WOW . . . SMOKIN! :-D

[rodguy911]

Does anyone know who actually wrote the memo?

[defconw]

My guess is John Kerry! LOL
