him during his program this afternoon.

1. Thanks for the head's up!

n/t

[LittleApple81]

3. Blitzer in his GOP attack mode... my God we need Jon Stewart

to bring him down to size. What an asshole.

4. Wolfie pounding Sandy Berger's lawyer on CNN

oh, NOW he's a hard-hitting reporter!

Whatta ho

[Lex]

5. I'm sure the White House gave Blitzer his talking points.

On CNN's Crossfire, they said the White House had called 3 times during the day in order to reinforce the Berger story.

Scum.

6. Berger a "subject" not a target of the investigation

so shut up with the hugh italicized "CRIMINAL" investigation headlines on the cablenews.

Wolfie sure is hitting on the rumors about archive employees who said this or that--Just rumors, Wolfie--are you trying to stir up trouble in the classic Fox News ("People say...") style?

"suspicion" eh, Wolf? Did you double source? hell no. He loves this scandal! Gleeful bashing indeed!

7. You know? I will be so happy after these two months where the

special offer I used to get extended cable is over. It has been interesting for me to corroborate what people said about cable news here on DU... and it will be interesting to see what happens during this two months... but I cannot see me paying money for this. I will miss The Daily Show, though... sigh...

11. Sure ALL these Fake Tough Guys are soooo rough on Dems

Then they drop trou and ask which input they'd like it if an Imperial comes on their show, no fist-shaking required.

8. He said the first time he heard allegations about Berger stuffing

Papers in his clothing was yesterday. This has been going on for 8 or 9 months and now they are making stuff up! I still say Berger was stupid for his part in this, but the gangsters in the Bush* administration have no shame.

9. Actually he said that Berger had put his handwritten notes in his

coat jacket and pants pocket(s). This was a nonstarter w/ the justice dept. He said the socks business is BS.

The real issue (if any) is the classified memo that Berger states was inadvertently mixed in with his personal/business papers.

What I still don't understand is if there are any missing docs. Anyone?

[faithnotgreed]

10. there should be no missing documents. these were copies he was viewing

[qanda]

12. You're right...

Sorry I didn't make that clear. The spin is that him putting items in his clothing (particularly the claim about his socks) was a part of a sinister plot to pilfer classified documents.
