8. I dunno,...this could be an introduction of LIHOP to the American public.
An American public which takes for granted its trust in leadership. An American public that should be fed the truth one spoonful at a time to avoid sending people into shock.

17. This article backs up Clarke's contention that if ShrubCo had had cabinet
Edited on Tue May-11-04 07:47 AM by w4rma
meetings, as Clarke pushed for, information like this in the article might have been shaken out of the system and they might have had enough information to prevent 911.

Imho.

10. So if the CIA didn't let the FBI issue the warning, then Chimp never knew
and is off the hook and out of the public eye, along with the wounded Herr Rumsfeld. Bring us George Tenet's head on a platter.

12. Uh,...back to "cherry-picked"?
I still believe the dots will be connected and show the picture of something closer to the truth. I am a patient woman.

13. rule 1 for the FBI
The Number One rule for the FBI, "if we screw up it's the CIA's fault." They're like the freepers who blame everything on the Clenis.
