What Bush really said about Iraq -- excerpt from Bush's SOTU (REMINDER)(w. my major points about it)
White House ^ | January 28, 2003 | President George W. Bush
The Internet will spell the death of the Democrats.
For ages, they've been able to control public opinion via their lackeys in the media.
Now the public has access to the truth.

WHO LIED TO WHOM? (The Original Seymour Hersh Article About Uranium and Niger That Started It All!)
The New Yorker ^ | March 31, 2003 | Seymour M. Hersh
This seems to have been the first "mainstream" media attack on the Bush Administration regarding the Sixteen Words. I post it both for the sake of historical preservation, and in the hopes that someone here may be able to use the data within to trace how the RATS and the rest of the news media twisted and distorted he truth to create the giant nonevent that has the whole press corps salivating today.
Let's go with 16 WORDS

Here is the live thread where those of us watching the UN meet were making notes of what was being said. My link takes you to the exact post where the documents are first mentioned by freeper bvw. Note that by reading posts prior to that one, this mention does not top el Baradei's report and is mentioned in passing.

O.K., now I am confused. The liberal news media is excoriating Bush for some minor detail about uranium sales to iraq. On the other hand, greenpeace sends a "press release" to this new zealand website complaining that the locals are getting radiation poisoning from wallowing in uranium oxide...
 
 
Being an avid listener of the great talk radio host "Micheal Medved", I got a very clear distiction between what was said in the SOTU address and the edited version that was used for a campaign against Dubya...
 
 
IRAQ: Boiling Mad Over Bush - (The left is now up in arms about one sentence of SOTU)
The Washington Post ^ | Friday, July 11, 2003; 8:39 AM | Howard Kurtz
These idiots forgot 9/11. We don't. Neither does the president. We are war and the left continues sleep walking
 
 
 
The "He LIIIEEED. Impeach him" outcry you hear now on most of the radio and TV talk shows is obviously the brainchile of the DNC (if it can be accused ov having a brain), and is coming principally from RAT seminar callers...
The lap-dog media, baying with great voice, is trying to whip this up as something even worse than Nixon's Watergate. And few in the media can resist something they see as the next "Watergate"...
The public seems to yawn and view the whole episode with uninterested bemusement...

Italian Journalist Says She Gave US Uranium Info
AP ^ | July 19, 2003
How many here think this whole uranium, 16-word "story" will still be with us in August?
I think it's already subsiding. They are branching off from the original allegations, trying to broaden it.
That is always a sign with these "Bush scandals" that they are on their way out and failed to connect the way they'd hoped.

Link of interest...


ACDIS.UIUC.EDU - Document: "FRENCH INVOLVMENT IN NIGER"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Niger has been a country that undergone many changes since its independence from France. From its initial French set-up government, to its multiple coups and finally the transition back to civilian rule, Niger has struggled to become a more developed nation. As to be expected commercial interest in Niger has been slow coming, due to the instability of the country. Only the uranium industry has shown much consistency over the years and even that is in decline. The number of uranium workers in Niger has dropped from over 3000 in 1990 to under 2000 last year65. Niger will have to work to discover new commercial enterprises in order to compete with other developing countries."
