Am I da only one
who finds it utterly impossible and/or insane for
Rice & Rumsfeld and apparently the whole US war govt
to claim that they havent seem the Brit intel on Iraq/
African uranium?

How is it possible that tight allies
in a war havent shared that intel, appaerently EVEN TO
THIS VERY MINUTE? In the midst of a scandal threatening
the Bush admin, AND the Blair admin, with the Brits STILL
claiming the intel is good & true, the Brits still havent
shared it with the US and the world?

1. Poodle says the supporting info is from a foreign intelligence agency.


I would be real interested in knowing exactly which foreign intelligence agency that might be. However Poodle says he has to keep the information confidential, and so far he has refused to let us know which foreign intelligence agency supposedly provided the information in the first place. I spy a big, fat, stinking pile of poodle shit sitting in the middle of the living room carpet at 10 Downing St.

3. It's gonna come out
sooner or later--what the third country is,
what the info is--whether there IS such a country or
such info. IF there is such info, and the BRits
believe it's good & they still believe it, why in the
world would they not get the OK to release it from the
third country?? If they did have good info it would
go a long way to saving *'s bacon. It just must not be
there. It's one piece of a piece of the lying puzzle,
but it confounds me.

2. With spin and lies
Anything is possable. Such simple things as bu$h is our elected president can be and are sold as the truth even when the facts say otherwise.

5. McLaughlin Group was usefull on this
This was discussed a bit on the McLaughlin Group, which seems to still be a pretty good show for inside baseball and spin analyeses.

Apparently there where three instances of Iraq tyring to buy uranium...one being the Niger incident. Tony Blankley says that the Brit intel has to do with the other two incidents, not the Niger incident...and this intel was legit.

Yet, as McLaughlin & Pat Buchanen pointed out, the real issue is who inserted this into the SOTU. McLaughlin thinks this came from the OSD.

6. Like Tony Blankley would
know!

BUT if it is legit, then it wdnt matter WHO
put the line in, because it would negate all
the talk about whether it shd have been in
or not!
