well to be honest, most of the media's other "ammo" came in the form of lies: Iraq is a quagmire, US soldiers are "torturers", Bush knew about 9/11 in advance, and on and on.

What scares me about this one is that there is something substanative behind it - this guy resigned for a reason.

I think they know of massive coming attacks they can't stop, or some horrible revelation about the war or something will come out. Something's up.

...this guy resigned for a reason.

Could the stated reason just be true.......after 7 years of this stressful job, he's TIRED.

"Iraq is a quagmire."

I was skimming through Sammon's book "Misunderestimated" the other day, and he had extensive excerpts from press conferences during the early days of the war. The press was suggesting the war was a quagmire IN THE FIRST WEEK! And they obsessively asked Bush whether he watched the war on TV, and seemed absolutely flabbergasted that he got his information on the war from military and intelligence sources. lol
