LATE EDITION (CNN) : Lt. Gen. David Petraeus, commander of the Multinational Security Transition Command in Iraq; Sens. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and Joseph Biden, D-Del.; Mehlman; Harvard Law School professor Laurence Tribe; former Attorney General Richard Thornburgh.
They just can't believe that this story isn't going anywhere. It's a like a general whose offensive has been stopped dead in it's tracks but he just keeps on attacking hoping for a breakthrough.
-Podesta and Mehlman are proving that right now patsfan.
Cap'n Trvth carefully takes note of another FR Mainer..
Yay! Now there's like... 4 of us!
Presidential candidate John kerry told us that HE had a plan but that we'd have to wait until after his election to know what it was. Now, we'll never know.......LOL
Melman is doing a nice job of "shredding" Wilson. Says he's wondering who is going to play him in the movie.
Was Russert on vactaion last week? It seems like he's missed out on a lot of new info.
I figured it would be; Tim has really prostituted himself of late. Rush referred to him the other day as "Dim" Russert. Truth is a meaningless concept to the demlib media, and has been for some time now.
That contradicts his own email, as I recall, that indicated Cooper ended a phone conversatiion with Rove suggesting to Rove that Wilson's wife worked for the CIA. Did not Rove confirm he had heard the same?
And furthermore, Russert can no longer hang onto that thin thread of objectivity he claimed to have. He's gone completely to the dark side.
Slowly, liberals capturing Fox. Even after MSM was reporting that Rove learned Plame name from reporters, all day Fox was spinning Harry Reid's comments made the previous day calling for Rove's removal.
Just pathetic.
Oooo, that's a good angle.
Let's see, who played Pinnochio?
Rush was right the other day when said the MSM was so sure they had Rove's head. They just can't accept that it's over.
That was painful and completely ridiculous. Where are we now? What did all of that maddness tell us about the dems strategy now. The freakin think that Karl Rove still did it! Im perplexed more than angry. Does someone know something I dont. Please let me in on it?
Ooh Mehlman getting all the good points about Wilson now - mislead about who sent him to Niger, mislead about the report, misled about x,x,x, and appeared w his wife in Vanity Fair. Go Kenny!
Rove good and honest man - people trying to smear him
Unbelievable to him that a Pubbie would hold a major press conference with someone like Joe Wilson. - Go Kenny
Oh, now Podesta calling it a matter of 'utmost national security"
Hmmm. Harman represents California's 36th Congressional District. Any CA Freepers know its demographics? Interesting to see if there's been an influx of Muslim or Hispanic immigrants there?
Right now, he is doing the Dem thing of, "Mr. Melhman, if this had happened in the Clinton WH...blah, blah, blah." Russert is trying his best to blow up this 'already over' issue into something akin to all the legit scandals of Clinton and cronies.
Panel time now. Mara Liasson's either had the mother of all makeovers, or there's someone else sitting in her seat. :-)
I can't believe how biased Russert is...this is unbelievable. "Avoid the legalisms"? Now Russert is trashing Bush with the polls? What the F? Mehlman is great!
Russert needling Bush's "Honesty numbers" *EYEROLL*
It's Rathergate all over again. They can't let go.
