help? wh claim that terrorists are financing criticism of war?
Earlier today I read a thread about the WH spreading the hateful lie that terrorists are financing domestic U.S. criticism of the war on Iraq.

I can't find that story now.

Help, anyone? An ecumenical ministers listserv wants to send it around.

3. Seriously.
Unlike the White House, our opinions aren't bought and paid for.

2. You mean I could be PAID for this?
Funny, I've been criticizing this war because I feel it is my responsibility as a US citizen to object to things I feel are damaging to my nation. No one told me I could get money for it too.

Of course I'd probably have to pay taxes on such income. But I'm ok with that.

end :sarcasm:

5. Suggest They Ask For Proof Before Spreading A Rumor
Bearing false witness and all that.

6. I knew it wasn't real!
Damn that Osama/Saddam/(insert additional boogieman name here)

They probably paid for all those protesters to holler "terrorist" at Bush during his visits to other countries too. And they paid all those people who marched in NYC... and all those people who protest every day all over the US!

11. This is disinformation to fight the reality of
Bush & Company handing bags of cash to "reporters" . . . so that when it all comes to light, they can say "the left was doing it!"

12. The radical right spread a similar lie during the Vietnam
war. Can one be a Christian and an unrepentant liar?

14. Gee I thought they were making money to do the war
I heard on the radio today that David 'Something' that makes vest for the army made 250 million and had a 10 M. party for his kid. Could that be? They could give me some for saying I hate the war as I would take it. How come we as Tax payers are paying for vest and families have to buy them vest?
