Ronald loves the CIA Kessler opened his mouth on Wash. Journal

this morning.

he said things like:

torture is in the eye of the beholder.

it was just a few low level troops that did the torture.

he kept dissing the Wash. Post and it's reporters for doing bad reporting. he used to work for WaPo as a reporter. he's quite stuck on himself.

and he played with words as he told us the CIA was never asked to assassinate anyone, and has not done so. (maybe he prefers the word murder for assassinate).

wonder how much the bushgang is paying him to spew lies?

1. I was watching

that this AM also. I TRIED to call in and ask him the exact question you posed. How much was his contract worth for spewing disinformation to the public? OR How much is the * administration paying him?

3. Heard some on the drive in. He was shilling furiously for Bush. It seems

the offensive of the Bushbots was kicked off with the shameful speech of Bush on Vet Day.

5. Kessler wrote a paid-to-order puff piece biography on Bush

entitled "A Matter of Character". A very strange "biography", to say the least, as about 1/5 of the book goes into disparaging commentary on John Kerry ("A Matter of Character" was published a few months before the 2004 election).

Right from the first chapter, you know what a crock of bull Kessler's book is when he calls Bush "the product of a modest, middle class American family..."

6. Bush came from a "modest middle class family". Right, Don't all middle

class families set their dim sons up as owners of oil companies and baseball teams?

4. He Hasn't Written For The WaPo Since 1985

My first child was born that year...she's a senior in college. I still had vinyl and my first computer (nothing more than a glorified word processor). Yeah, this guy really knows a lot about the current state of the Washington Post and "journalism".

Methinks he's a buddy of Brian Lamb who they threw on to get the talking points out and to refute Ray McGovern (which the scumbag didn't do).

Does this regime feel it can restore its credibility by reinforcing the lies that lost it for them? Sheesh. :eyeroll:

7. the way he talked you would have thought he worked there last week

I tried to think of his necktie as being ugly; but it wasn't. but, it was more of an evening tie rather then a morning tie.
