		<description>This is very useful.  I believe that the timeline omits some important prior events that add context.   As I understand it, the original public assertion that the Niger documents were forged came from UN inspectors just prior to the start of the timeline.   Also, I believe that the Niger claim was removed from one or more prior presidential speeches in fall 2002 at the insistence of CIA.  In one instance, Tenet intervened directly with Hadley because the WHIG was ignoring CIA requests to remove the claim from presidential speeches.   I believe that this information can be found in the Senate committee investigation report.  But this is from memory...perhaps I have it wrong.</description>

		<description>Concerned Conservative,

I haven&#039;t recieved a reply to my questions, but I would like to engage you in a discussion on the &quot;nanny state&quot; topic.  I will offer you the same thing I offered The Northeast Dilemna, and honest exchange of ideas WITHOUT the pointless rhetoric, sarcasm, and insults.  Lets do this!  And if your willing to do this, I will also accept a topic of your choosing to discuss... same rules.</description>

WTF is the Fvcker carlson thread? Please excuse me, I&#039;m an old man and would not understand URLs, servers, SQL statements and the such if I had not been involved in their development. By the bye, I am not working at a super market - (YET!).</description>

		<description>Walt,

HERE HERE!  I just posted some information related to this on the Fvcker carlson thread.  We aren&#039;t just the highest spending country, we are by a factor of 50+% over the next nearest country that has FULL HEALTH SERVICES FOR EVERY CITIZEN.  What CC and other republican nitwits don&#039;t realize is that corporations take an average of +30% in overhead and then you compare that to social security for instance that has less than 1% overhead.  When profits are in the mix, it&#039;s ALMOST ALWAYS more expensive.  Only if the corporations can somehow innovate less expensive products does the cost of anything reduce, and hospitals in particular have such a high barrier to entry that these basic &#039;competitive&#039; economic factors don&#039;t come into play.  But a rational understanding of any american issue whether it be healthcare, education, the environment or even foreign policy seems to be well beyond the grasp or capacity of the average republican that I&#039;ve seen.</description>

		<description>#69, CC -
The USA is definately not a nanny state.
We have the highest health care cost in the world but rank 30th in health care performance and 51st in delivery. 
Our privileged class ranks above royalty in every other country in the world and numbers in the hundreds of thousands.
Aid to those in need ranks below India and the Balkins.
Retirees have to supplement their pensions by packing bags and picking up carts at supermarkets because corporations have reneged on medical coverage.</description>

		<description>CC, 
 Better build your castle walls a little taller and your moat a bit deeper and wider cause all those nannyless children are coming ....for you! 
In general, what is good for all, is good for you in the long run, but by the time you grasp that idea it will be much too late. I guess we all learn at different speeds. 
BEEP! BEEP! the short bus is here to pick you up CC!(otherwise known as the tardcart)</description>

		<description>Concerned Conservative,

I have been reading these comments for weeks now to get an idea of where the flaws in many arguments really stem from, no matter what side they may be on.  The thing that finally got a reaction from me on this thread has to be the &quot;nanny state&quot;.  I want you to seriously think about this... you obviously have a problem with gov&#039;t funded social programs, but what about &#039;corporate welfare&#039;?  Does that qualify as a nanny state program too?</description>

		<description>Ryan,

I think this investigation is hugely important and in some regards its the last straw. If Fitzgerald can&#039;t nail a few of these monkeys to the wall for their obvious crimes in taking us to war with Iraq ilegally, there is very little hope for our democracy (the one that is on life support). They&#039;ve stolen the voting apparatus, and they own the media. If justice can&#039;t be served with reams of evidence (that a regular guy with internet access and some curiousity can connect the dots on) and a supposedly incorruptible, just prosecutor investigating......what&#039;s left? I think Bush is gonna limp to the finish line regardless, but truth and justie MUST prevail here and now. I&#039;m trying to avoid sounding defeated, but let&#039;s face it, this is it.</description>

		<description>#28 - CC,
Unfortunately, itâ€™s been over for the good old USA     for the last 5 years. What took over 200 years to build will be gone before W leaves office. I only hope that the terrorists do not use the Bushevik terrorist training and recruitment centers in Iraq to kill thousands, or, God forbid, millions of our fellow Americans when the vacuum develops.</description>

		<description>&quot;Contrary to their allegation, Wilson clearly stated in the op-ed that &quot;agency officials&quot; had requested he travel to Niger. Further, in the CNN appearance, he stated it was &quot;absolutely true&quot; that Cheney was unaware he went on the trip.&quot;

So UnconcernedLiar - where is your descrediting information on the WSJ?  I&#039;m happy to learn something, but an op-ed piece from a republican hitman is not &#039;evidence&#039;, it&#039;s &#039;conjecture&#039;.  Show me where Wilson&#039;s claims were discredited - and I&#039;ll be happy to learn.  You CAN&#039;T - and why?  BECAUSE YOU&#039;RE A LIAR!</description>

		<description>&quot;Yes, I post an alternative viewpoint Ryan. &quot;

You do not, you post debunked lies.  You&#039;re an immoral bastard who prefers to live dishonorably through lies, deception and propaganda.  You&#039;re an idiot and and a traitor to american ideals.

&quot; Idiots are incapable of learning from others â€” kind of like you.&quot;

I&#039;m quite capable of learning from others, how do you think I know so much up dipshit.  The difference between you and me is that I actually learn and INVESTIGATE, I don&#039;t take some schmuck opinion from a rightwing rag at face value.  You&#039;re an IDIOT!  You don&#039;t have opinions, you have LIES!</description>

		<description>Yes, I post an alternative viewpoint Ryan.  But that does not make me immoral or a liar.  Or an idiot for that matter.  Idiots are incapable of learning from others -- kind of like you.

And if I lose the bet I will honor it.</description>

		<description>UnconcernedMoron,

Here&#039;s one of the unspins of the smear campaign you seem so intent on spreading.  RETARDED MORON!

&quot;Wilson did not claim that the vice president sent him to Niger; rather, Wilson stated that the CIA sent him to Niger to answer the vice president&#039;s office&#039;s questions regarding the purported Iraq-Niger uranium deal. Claiming that Wilson stated or insinuated that Cheney&#039;s office sent him to Niger lends false justification to the argument articulated by defenders of the Bush administration that, in outing Plame, administration officials were merely setting the record straight by disclosing that Plame -- not Cheney -- had authorized the trip.&quot;</description>
