Isn't this great...just on MSNBC
You have the chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff saying one thing, that the story didn't cause the riots, and you have the idiot Scotty at the White House out to crucify Newsweek for the article and is blaming it for the riots...

they are not getting their stories straight...

Oh man...I think ole Meyers is done for...he's finished in Washington...watch they will have him replaced by next week...!

1. Yes, I don't see how someone who tells the truth can last very long.

7. Here's a link to what Meyers said last week .....
Myers cited U.S. commanders as saying the protests in Jalalabad, at least, were more about local politics than anti-American sentiment stirred up by the Newsweek report.

"It's a judgment of our commander in Afghanistan, General (Carl) Eichenberry, that in fact the violence that we saw in Jalalabad was not necessarily the result of the allegations about disrespect for the Quran ... but more tied up in the political process and the reconciliation process that President (Hamid) Karzai and his cabinet is conducting in Afghanistan," Myers said.

"He thought it was not at all tied to the article in the magazine -snip-

FROM CNN WHO MUSTA FORGOTEN HIS WORDS FROM LAST WEEK ..... :freak:

8. Throughout the occupation, we've had the White House saying. . .
the insurgents are foreigners or supported by outside governments, while the military has consistently said they're native Iraqis and seemingly uninfluenced by outside sources. Give it another week or so. BushCo's been stoking the Syria connection all the past week -- by next week, the Pentagon will quietly say Syria has no involvement.
