I'd like a source on that chemical warhead.

[Mo1]

She said she gave them to the Commission and was subjected to a cease and desist letter. Amazing, if for real. Could be a set up...

WHAT?!?!?!?!

[BigSkyFreeper]

Nah, I don't listen to Hannity, because most of the time, he's humping his books.

[CyberAnt]

Not that I'm aware of, but Molly Henneberg has been covering the hearing. Maybe she would give you an answer about who's there. Otherwise, I don't know who might be able to tell us. If you find out, make a note and let me know, please?

[eureka!]

The cease and desist was not in connection with the commission. Others will have more detail (working with the radio on and checking in on this thread for FReporting on the true testimony at the hearing)...

[TomGuy]

The unbelievable thing is this:

Some official can make a statement, even in print or on tape. A liberal says the statement is wrong, and the rest of the media buys it.

A liberal can make a statement. Mounds of documentation, printed and taped, contradict the statement. We see it on FR and some nets like FoxNews play some of it, but the liberals somehow get away with and continue to repeat the 'lie.'

The Pubs on the Commission should start exercising their right and charge some of those testifying with perjury, as there seems to be some clear and definite lying. If the Pubs don't get tough, we all might as well just give up.

[Mo1]

Have faith .. after what I just witness today from these hearing .. I', even more determined that the Rats don't get in the WH

[gswilder]

If this ladys documents are legit and the comission is shown to be trying to keep her quiet, then all !&!&!& may break loose. However, the damage to Bush is already done. Lets just hope its not permanent. I am almost beginning to wonder if Bush should go on TV and address the nation about this?

[maica]

Here is some really sickening news for any who thought that today would be the end of this Bushbashing orgy.

[eureka!]

re 2823 Agreed. That and his repeating himself. Still, he's doing a good service...

[Republican Red]

Clarke is the alpha of megalomaniacs

He was scary. It was as if he alone could have saved the planet from terrorism. I now call him Dick Clarke-Kent for his superman image of himself.

[BigSkyFreeper]

If he spent less time humping his book, I'd probably listen to him more.

[Mo1]

I am almost beginning to wonder if Bush should go on TV and address the nation about this?

Oh please .. get a grip

[ShandaLear]

Remember what happened when it was perceived that Clinton was being piled on by the Republicans?

[eureka!]

see #2825 the c&d letter wasn't from the comission although they got her documents...

[Peach]

It is time for the Silent Majority to rise up! We faught for this man in 2000 - I went to street demonstrations during the recount fiasco to fight the leftists. We made ourselves heard and it made a difference. President Bush has worked his heart out trying to protect us and the RATS/media are attempting to completely destroy him. I believe that God will step in here at some point but God also says that God helps those that help themselves. The time for sitting around complaining about the RAT/media partisanship os over. It is time for action or we will deserve whatever we get. President Bush deserves our all, IMHO.

(Deserved to be restated).

[Mo1]

Yep

[piasa]

You go to jail to protect your sources,

No 'source' is ever more important than your country. And a source can be a weasel or a saint. The latter are very, very rare and are saints only when they do it to protect the US and our human 'assets' while the former are all too often just slimeballs who are more interested in intrigue and money than they are of protecting THEIR sources, sources they haver access to in the course of their government jobs and are entrusted not to speak about or endanger, namely the very people out there fighting who depend on others not to leak to the press.

Sources are scum most of the time, and those undermining our efforts to go after terrorists - for whatever reasons- are the worst scum of all, just termites in the load-bearing walls.

[TomGuy]

[Hannity] he's humping his books

Oh...so that's what that background noise is during the lulls.

[prairiebreeze]

Their final report is due out in the summer. Maybe all of these dates listed aren't public hearing, some may still be closed hearings.
