1. It's their job to lie, distort, etc.
So yes... of course her testimony is ignored.

5. I notice that the Sibel threads don't always have a large number of views....

People would prefer to bury their heads in the sand, particularly where both Republicans and Democrats are involved in the corruption. For them, it is better to focus on the more superficial issues.

10. We cherish our delusions.
And with such a wide variety, is it any wonder that we are so screwed up?

11. Googling Sibel Edmonds
Over 24 hours have passed since the video and full transcript of Sibel Edmond's deposition have been made public, giving even the most stupid and lazy journalist the time to either watch the video or read the transcript. This morning, I decided to check what Google News would find for me. I simply typed "Sibel Edmonds" and hit enter. Here are the results:

Now, I cannot say that I was expecting a tsunami of reports, but still, nothing. Almost nothing at all! Take a look for yourself (click on the pic for a higher resolution). What do you see?

The Brad Blog. Well, yes, since Brad Friedman has been following this story from the very beginning and since his blog is, along with Lukery's "Let Sibel Speak", the unofficial "Sibel news" blog.

What else?

Znet, Georgetown News Democrat, kypost, and Antiwar.com.

OK, I said some insensitive things here. Really, I don't know the Sibel Edmonds story but I THINK it has something to do with the 2004 election.
