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 Although, based on his own words, his reasoning seemed to vacillate between 'they only provide historical reference' and 'they contain actionable intelligence'.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.
