That was extremely difficult to take, given the criticism Sheehan has leveled against him.

Newsweek is as close to a Communist propaganda rag as I have ever seen. I refuse to read this tripe!

When the Able Danger stuff really started to break last Thursday, I read this: "And why is that significant? Because the Mohammed Atta timeline established by the Commission pointedly insisted Atta did not meet with an Iraqi intelligence agent in Prague."

I've seen nothing else that confirms it, but as you noted it keeps coming up as a suggestion in various articles. As best as I understand the theory being floated, supposedly the 9/11 Commission's timeline on Atta has this meeting in Prague never taking place, but somehow Able Danger is supposed to allow for the meeting to take place. I haven't seen it reported anywhere how that happens.

Here's the original place I first heard Able Danger/Prague, coming from NRO:

I've been through some (but clearly not all) of backhoe's links and I don't see the connection between Able Danger and Atta/Prague. Everything I've read new that has come out since Thursday doesn't make the connection clear, and most of the stuff doesn't mention anything about Prague.

I wonder what the Able Danger information actually was.

Thank you for looking and trying to determine why/how Able Danger is being mentioned as putting Atta in Prague. We'll just have to hope for Congressional hearings with under oath testimony, I guess, and let the people decide who is telling the truth and who is lying about this matter.

If only we knew what the Able Danger report said.

Weldon said the military guys involved were willing to testify under oath. I think it should be done. This should not be poo-pooed. My goodness, we're talking about our nation and its safety.

No stone unturned!!

Be on your guard. They must be hunting for another way to smear him.

Indeed they are. From the article:

More complicated is the question of whether Bush's suffering is essentially sympathetic, or whether he is agonizing over the war that he chose to start.
