LMFAO!!! "Judith Miller Exonerates Bush Officials " HAHAHAHA!!!
The true facts in the CIA-leak case are now becoming astonishingly clear. New York Times reporter Judith Miller's testimony, as she describes it in the Sunday edition of her paper, proves that the wrong people are under investigation. It's not really a story about Bush officials Lewis Libby and Karl Rove and their conversations with the press. Rather, it's a story about a CIA bureaucracy working to undermine the Bush administration through the media and cover up for its own mistakes.

It's now obvious that Bush officials are spending time before a grand bjury and big money on lawyers for the []alleged "crime" of trying to use the press to get out their side of the story. They trusted the press and got burned. Now, if the media have their way, these officials may be further punished by being indicted by Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald. This would be a gross miscarriage of justice.

The case has been a revealing and disappointing look into how Bush administration officials tried to work with various reporters, in order to counteract false accusations about the administration's Iraq policy that had appeared in the press. In the end, they failed. It's a failure that demonstrates the folly of trying to curry favor with the liberal press.

Once you stop laughing and catch your breath, there's more here if you can stand it.

12. Accuracy in Comedy
Very amusing, but ultimately not up to the "quality" of the typical fascist spin. After all this time, it's not about the administration at all! They'll have to come up with something better than that.

put us all in danger

18. The Onion coudn't be more insane than Kincaid.
Edited on Fri Oct-21-05 04:01 PM by TahitiNut
I'd suggest Kincaid be put on a suicide watch. Check his closet and see what kind of tennis shoes he's wearing.

"... Democrats still call the shots on Capitol Hill, despite a Republican Senate majority ..." -- Cliff Kincaid, AIM, October 16, 2005

(... and a Repbulican House Majority, and a Republican President. Beware the power of the Clenis!)

19. So their defense is that they were mis-informed? Hmm - that would carry
Edited on Fri Oct-21-05 04:38 PM by applegrove
more weight if they had not started one group & another to purposely mis-inform themselves.

Fact is they started with what they wanted ... to invade Iraq... and worked the facts back from that. And when questioned by someone (Wilson) who held two threads of the real truth in his hands (niger & possibly info on WMDs because he was a player in that game and had been for years as ambassador) they attacked.

Neocons & their myths. It never ends with them.

20. Rush, The Pigman, Limbaugh
was pushing this story yesterday. Sounding like a paranoid 'kook,' Limbaugh ranted that BOTH the CIA AND the State Department were out to get Bush.

These "conservatives" really do create their own reality. Maybe they're ALL on drugs?

21. Yeah, that's why Libby's attorney stopped returning media phone
calls after Judy testified. It was such good news for his client that he just wanted to savor it all by himself.

LOL

26. If they advocate accuracy then why did they do this?
In the "Who We Are" section of their website they have this picture of their Chairman.



With this caption:

Don Irvine, Chairman, joined AIM in 1974. He was named Operations Manager in 1982 and elected to the AIM board in 1984 as Executive Secretary.


If Mr Irvine started at AIM 35 years ago he must have been around 4 or 5 years old!

Better yet...Maybe Judy should be tried and put in front of a firing squad for the lies she published that led to the deaths of 2000 US soldiers?

28. Is this guy on fucking crack?:
"In the same way that Democrats still call the shots on Capitol Hill, despite a Republican Senate majority, the Times and other liberal media forced the Bush administration to agree to their demands for an investigation in the CIA leak case."

:wtf: :silly: :eyes:

No...seriously...this guy is just screaming for an intervention.

29. If he is, it's the best crack ever! The Bushies were trying to "work with
various reporters, in order to counteract false accusations about the administration's Iraq policy that had appeared in the press. In the end, they failed. It's a failure that demonstrates the folly of trying to curry favor with the liberal press."
