The Washington Compost is trying to catch the NYTimes in the irrelevancy sweepstakes.

Thus, the view of the team that the Post highlights appears to have been a minority view at the time the administration referred to the trailers as bio labs.

I noted this as well, its not until you read well into the article that you see this.

My point to liberals and other naysayers about this is that there are ALWAYS contrary opinions about something, but you go with the majority opinion, or the opinion which, in your judgement, given the circumstances (Iraq HAD and USED WMD before, they were a rogue nation in violation of numerous agreements, etc etc), is most likely or prudent.

Sheesh, this is so obvious, one would have to be deliberately obtuse not to understand this.

Washington Post Struggles

Amidst declining circulation, declining advertising revenues, and rising newsprint costs, the Washington Post announced that it will eliminate some 80 newsroom positions over the next year. That’s close to 10 percent of its reporters and editors.

“An analysis of our business practices revealed that we weren’t using reporters to write our stories anyway,” said Preston Cash, assistant publisher for the paper. “Why pay for something we don’t need?”

Cash indicated that the basic structure for all future news stories already exists. “Our internal review showed that one basic theme ran through all our stories,” said Cash. “This theme can be plugged into a computer program that will generate all future stories. All we have to do is throw in a few specific topical anchors like ‘failed war on terror’ or ‘Bush blunders,’ stir in a few statistics or location names and the software will write the story for us.”

“Right-wingers say this isn’t news,” said Cash. “We say, if it’s in our paper it is news. After all, the Post is a newspaper.”

Skeptics aren’t persuaded that the Post’s strategy will work. “Relying on fabricated news may lower the Post’s labor costs, but it will do little to address the problem of declining circulation and ad revenues,” said Brent Bozell of the Media Research Center. “In fact, it’s likely to aggravate these problems.”

Zarqawi has and is costing the American tax payer a bundle - imagine the cost of deporting all the aliens who work here. Send Zarqawi to the chair and DENY the Right to Vote to any illegal - class D Citizen - in any election.

Starting NOW all illegal aliens caught entering the country without going through the proper channels - they will be rightfully called FELON and treated with a very simple short trial announcing their departure as they have no RIGHTS! Deport them and be done with it!

What scum. Obviously they don't understand the principle of "fair and balanced." Children, they're just nanner nanner nanner children. They might as well walk around with their tongues stuck out.

Zarqawi is the guy who went on to form ISIS, or as Obama called it, ISIL
