And the Wash Post and NY Times will be all over this like they were the oil for food scandal.

Maybe if we tell them that GWB's National Guard records are in the released documents, they may run with the story.

Axis of Evil.

We never expected a direct link between Saddam and 9/11 any more than FDR expected a direct link between Hitler and Pearl Harbor.

The lefties understand this -- they pretend not to though.

My question is: What else did the bogus 9/11 Commission overlook?

In an interview yesterday, the current president of the New School University, Bob Kerrey, was careful to say that new documents translated last night by ABC News did not prove Saddam Hussein played a role in any way in plotting the attacks of September 11, 2001.

What happened to the Presidents contention that Saddam was involved with Al Qaeda? So like the leftists to keep moving the football. What's next - they find that Saddam did help plan 9/11, but it still doesn't count because he didn't personally participate in the implementation???

Liberal argument that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 just smashed to the ground.

Except for the NY Slimes who'll never report this...CBS will try to say the document is a fake.

They misspell Kerrey's last name every time except the first time the mention it. The "Kerry" spelling calls a picture of John "Lurch" Kerry to mind.

Am I the only one that noticed a lot of grammar errors? I like what they're saying but they are struggling to get it said. Must be the results of the NEA-dominated government education system.

I remember a year or so ago, the liberals were citing a "study" that showed FoxNews viewers were stupider than CNN viewers because more Fox viewers believed there was a connection between Al Qaeda and Saddam Hussein.

The evidence has been out there for a decade or more, though this new stuff is even more conclusive.

People who get their news from CNN, the NY Times, or DU still don't know these facts. In their mind, that makes them smarter.

This is all going to drip, drip, drip into a giant snowball against the spineless / lying / spinning left by November.

Great process (tangible in certain aspects) is going to continue to be made as well over the next 7 months in the GWOT -

Bad time to be a terrorist as well as a Democrat.

This is only the tip of the iceberg that will come out of these documents and the MSM will be forced into reporting on them, IMHO.

Duhhhhhhhhhhhhh.


I really want to send this stuff to my friends from college who ever so strongly believed that Saddam and bin Laden had NOTHING in common and would never THINK of working together.


But after winning so many elections, why should I be a sore winner?

NRO has a short pice with some outstanding links to old articles.

The 9/11 Commission and its staff, aided and abetted by their fawning fans in the establishment press, did their level best to bury, marginalize and dilute any suggestion that Iraq and al Qaeda had a meaningful relationship. After all, the lack of a tie to the terrorists would have meant a lack of a rationale to extend the war on terror to Iraq, which would please war opponents, make the Bush administration appear foolish, and, in general, help the Kerry campaign. We talked about it here while it was happening back in summer 2004 (see, e.g., here and here). ...

Well, well, well. It looks like the Iraq intel files may be starting to change perceptions. 9/11 Commission Bob Kerrey, for one, is certainly singing a different tune according to todays NYSun:

The new documents suggest that the 9/11 commission's final conclusion in 2004, that there were no "operational" ties between Iraq and Al Qaeda, may need to be reexamined in light of the recently captured documents.

http://corner.nationalreview.com/06_03_19_corner-archive.asp#093305

The linked articles ("here" and "here" above) are:

The 9/11 Commission raises more questions than it answers and
The newspaper of record withholds Iraq/Qaeda connection evidence

Both articles are from 2004, and the one that knocks the NYT is the better one of the two, IMO.

The liberals' little house of cards is collapsing.

This is what happens when you use un-truths and deception to reach your goal.

It would have been better for them if they had never brought it up in the first place.

Doesn't matter if the MSM runs the story. Everybody knows, you get the real news online. You don't have to accept one point of view, you can shop around and compare....see what makes sense.

The "entertainment networks" (ABC, CBS, NBC) will have to bow out of their money-losing news operations. It won't happen soon, but the erosion is already showing and, at some point, the bean counters are going to have to start raising red flags.

The entire lib-dem establishment is so deeply saddened that this story will never see the front page of the NYT or the WashPost. This is definitely one of those stories that's not fit for the drive-by media to print.

How can this be? If this is true, then Bush didn't lie and everyone knows that Bush lied. It must have been planted by Halliburton. Or the Cocoanut Grove.

Mr. Kerrey said he believed America's understanding of the deposed tyrant's relationship with Al Qaeda would become much deeper as more captured Iraqi documents and audiotapes are disclosed.

Hmmmmm.... Perhaps Mr. Kerrey would like to fire off a memo to the MSM and DNC reminding them to get on board before the train leaves the station!
