FYI, I received the following email from the editor of Japan today after I emailed them about running the article from Truthout that was apparently lifted, without attribution or permission, from Capitol Hill Blue:

Dear Sirs,

I am the editor of Japan Today, an English Internet news publication based in Tokyo.

Yesterday in our World section, we ran a story from truthout.org (which we subscribe to) about Bush lying about WMDs.

We have since learned it was inaccurate and removed it. I read the story by Doug Thompson today on your web site and would like permission to use it on Japan Today, crediting Capitol Hill Blue.


Yours sincerely,

Chris Betros
Editor
Japan Today

We gave them permission, of course, and will contact any other publication that picked up the article and ask them to run the correction.

I'd love to stick around and answer every one of these 200+ posts, but I've got a lot of work to do and very little time left in the day. Thanks for your time. I'll check in later.

Doug

Right now, you have to prove you didn't make this guy up, as the stakes are a bit higher with the charge that "Bush Lied".Can you do that?

Leaving Terrance to your attorney and a potential meeting with the FBI is tantamount to complicity in this "crime"! Post what you have Doug! Unless you paid him, I see nothing but a legal black hole by passing Terrance's information to an attorney. As far as the FBI goes, saying that he was a paid consultant to the CIA is not the same as saying he was the CIA.

I know you are busy, send me the stuff and I'll make sure it gets posted.
