Those interviews just make me work harder to make sure my grandchildren (ages 9 - 14) know who is who, what is what, and why is why. I also sometimes work it in when I sub. Some of the teachers are libs, some are conservatives.
Bingo!
LOL Matt Cooper on CNN with Howard Kurtz
And CNN is touting this as an exclusive interview, Cooper's firsst on Cable. LOL
The prime minister of Niger told Wilson that Iraq agents had contacted him and wanted to start "secret trade negotiations". Given that Niger exports 4 items: livestock products, cowpeas, onions, and yellowcake....well, you tell me which one you think Saddam wanted to talk about "in secret".
cowpeas?
LOL!
Howie Kurtz implying that journalists shouldn't listen to anonymous sources who "have an obvious partisan agenda".
Kurtzy knows very well that's the only kind of anonymous source there is in Washington.
I got to tell you...this is sickening....this Podesta a$$ is making Mehlman look foolish and Mehlman has had AMPLE opportunities to cut this shmuck off at the knees...Their he goes again..."the President said he will fire leakers, not law breakers"...BS!!!
Until the Republicans get a pitbull in there and stopped being walked on this crap as well as the garbage from last week will continue...
LOL, he said, "I think those who attended my Bar Mitzvahs are going to be very surprised."
What say Podesta-mienta about the Chinese Generals hooting and hollering and waving the nuclear sword? Nada?
CNN exclusive w/Matt Cooper? I'm watching him now on MTP. ANOTHER CNN lie.
NOt if you are a democrat.
Mehlman handled it just fine
CNN's Reliable Sources transcript will be posted in a few hours, here:

All you have to know is that there is no penalty for lying in a press interview for Cooper; on the other hand, Rove's attorney, as an officer of the court, must tell the truth.
Better than fine I thought.
I absolutely disagree...he had ample opportunities and did nothing with them...they kept pounding him on Scott McClellan saying "Karl Rove was not involved and McClellan's credibility is not in tatters"...and he had NO answer!
Turn arond and say, "as has been proven this past week with the testimony coming out Scott McClellan was right..Karl Rove was not INVOLVED LEAKING the name, it was given to him by a reporter"
I am sitting here pleading with Mehlman to go after him!
Wow, these guys will say literally anything!
