Just heard of Fox News Alert...no other details.

---Interesting that I misread the title TWICE to say, "Bush Admin Release 48K Boxes of Saddam Democrats".
Good indicator of the Democrats' status in my mind. ---

It's a typo - it should read "48K BOXERS of Saddam Documents" (most of which belong to Sandy Burglar) :-0

I believe he means that there there...

This ain't no Friday evening, bury 'em doc dump. This is splashed in Prime Time, which means that there just might be a "there" there.

Bush is clearly a patient man (a little too patient at times IMHO), but I suspect that he finally just got sicked and tired of the worthless goldbricking anonymous desk jockeys out of Langley and their media friends putting the knife in his back over and over and over again. A man can only take so much.

Hi, Dolphy. We had been intending an activism thread to push for the release of Saddam's tapes, but we don't need to do that now. It will be interesting to see the media avoid this story, but The Weekly Standard will stay on it and we can ensure we e-mail those articles around.

My friend Sid W Sodnagel may have been channeling H. L. Mencken. Or not.

You could put that on Burma Shave signs:

Bush lied
People died
Blew up levees
Halliburton
Burma Shave

So far, this is the only place I have seen/heard anything about this news.

[Dolphy]

Thanks, Peach. This looks like like yet another issue where we will have to work to get the news.

Uh...yeah...I posted it.

Uh yeah and I replied to your post.

Not unlike you to miss a point.

Since this was posted I've been doing searches trying to find this story, any updates? Or is this another 'jump the gun' FNC alert?

BTTT

[Bassfan]

Just don't let Kerry's people or SeeBS in there. Could end up with several Documents in Times New Roman.

Well, my impression is that Bush effectively had to cojole Negoponte into action on this...it was not announced until the article was published.

Here's one

There are others posted within this thread and several threads on FR.

Not unlike you to miss a point.

"Well would you lookey here" is a point?

Your previous point seemed to be that if Negroponte didn't want to release the documents, he, being such a good 'conservative hero', had very good reason. Although, based on his own words, his reasoning seemed to vacillate between 'they only provide historical reference' and 'they contain actionable intelligence'. Seems odd to me that he didn't release them until President Bush 'requested' that it be done. So...exactly what is your point in 'lookey here'?

So...exactly what is your point in 'lookey here'?

I summarized on that thread (to another poster)this way;

Post #184 on that thread | Me:There is absolutely no evidence that you have brought up that would lead a reasonable person to conclude that Negroponte is not "expediting" the procedure as fast as he is able given both security and resource restraints.

Seems odd to me that he didn't release them until President Bush 'requested' that it be done.

Negroponte works for the President. Negroponte was appointed by the President. Negroponte was told by the President to release the documents. Negroponte said okay.

I don't think that it would necessarily be a good thing for Negroponte to release the docs/tapes without the President wanting them released and without the President telling him to release them.

I don't see what the caper is.

This will be the ONLY and LAST time anyone will hear about this! Fox won't even follow up....PITIFUL!!
