Wow, you have really done a job this week anita!
I especially liked the videos of ABC giving away our secrets one more time to those who would blow up our embassies. Great expose there.

LOL! Pretty weak, but if he practices, he might catch up with the Islamofascists burning churches over the Pope's remarks.

To: anita; All
Here is an unintentionally hilarious quote from one of anita's links about Joe Wilson cancelling his WaPo subscription:

It just was mind-boggling to find in a supposedly liberal media outlet an editorial that was factually incorrect, that used a sort of rabid, frenzied tone, with complete reckless disregard for the facts.

I am not sure I have ever read anything more delusional that that view of "liberal media." Note that the interviewer clearly views the WaPo as reliably liberal, notwithstanding the view of the DUers.
