Is there any other way to tell it?
November 7th, 2005 at 6:11 pmthere was an excellent chris matthews (yes, chris matthews) hardball segment earlier that steve clemons summarized nicely… evidently, things continue to spin out of control for bush, cheney & co. when even chris matthews is turning on them… it will air later also…

November 7th, 2005 at 6:11 pmSenator Reid’s been caught in a bit of nembarrassment…his website lists his ‘official’ stance on Sadaam and WMD’s….it echoes the Bush Administration.
oops.

November 7th, 2005 at 6:19 pmSick and disgusted.
November 7th, 2005 at 6:27 pmHey, the DIA delivered bad news to Bushie. The agents involved in interogating al-liby didn’t give Bushie the report he wanted.
I suppose the agents in question weren’t persecuted (by Rove, Cheney and Libby)because even though they knew Bushie was lying, they didn’t write a opinion peice in the newspaper.
Proves Joe Wilson is a real man and the sissy’s who refused to speak out go to bed at night with fresh diapers.
November 7th, 2005 at 6:41 pmrichb,
You appear to be lying again, but so far you’ve done that continually. Harry’s front page has nothing of the kind to say, and in fact it lists a link to “Democrats Seek Answers About the War in Iraq”.
If you are referring to archive information on the site, only republican propandists change their sites so they pretend like they never said something.
Why must Republicans all be such pathological liars, must be the fairy tells from religion they’re taught to believe, it seems to breed retarded rednecks.
November 7th, 2005 at 6:48 pmEverything about the reasons for, and execution of the Iraq War is a lie.
After all, if Rumsfeld hadn’t sold WMDs to Iraq in the 80s, the WMD issue most likely would never have existed. Republicans have a nasty and irresponsible habit of propping up dictators and selling them nasty weapons…
November 7th, 2005 at 6:49 pmmy statement stands, it was on c-span and was introduced in the record by the Senator doing the speech.

November 7th, 2005 at 7:02 pmRichb,
November 7th, 2005 at 7:05 pmYour statement stands corrected, and you’re a moron for continually posting lies.
Ryan we simply have a difference of opinion,I’ve never said one single thing personal to you, so why the hostility?
I saw what I saw, the posting was dated Nov 7 2005 from Senator Reid’s website.
you can choose to believe it or not, but don’t personally attack me for posting, I certainly haven’t done that to you or anyone else on this website.
richb
November 7th, 2005 at 7:10 pmBahaha,
Republicans who lie always claim a ‘difference of opinion’, but ‘opinions’ are what you come to when you lack facts. Facts DISPROVE opinions as wrong, so you aren’t entitled to say wrong things without being corrected, but you’re entitled to be stupid and retarded enough to believe them.
Republicans depend on ‘opinions’, because they never have the facts to prove their lies. It’s the FASCIST WAY.
November 7th, 2005 at 7:12 pmRichB,
Post the link, or stop lying.
November 7th, 2005 at 7:13 pmryan…I said it was LIVE on Cspan….there is NO hyperlink…..I have no fear that it will show up again..so relax and wait for it…or disregard it, whatever makes you feel better.
richb
November 7th, 2005 at 7:15 pm“his website lists his ‘official’ stance on Sadaam and WMD’s…”RichB,
“I said it was LIVE on Cspan….there is NO hyperlink…”RichB
You’re a bizarre and psychotic loser. AND YOU LIE.
November 7th, 2005 at 7:19 pmI guess I’m not smart enough to be a Bush supporter. Was it on his website, or on CSPAN?
Or did someone on CSPAN say something that led you to believe something is on his web site? That might make more sense.
November 7th, 2005 at 7:35 pmRichB has a habit of posting false information, this is just another in a long line of republican inept and deceitful practices. They can’t win with the truth, so they cheat any way they can – poor losers…
November 7th, 2005 at 7:46 pmI think that anyone that spreads Bushies propaganda and lies about the Iraq war should be charged with conspiracy.
We have the evidence to prove the war is illegal and anyone who supports it(especially the chickenhawks) should be tried along with Bush, Cheney, Rove and Rumsfeld.
Can’t impeach the chickenhawks but we can jail em.
Impeach the Bushie Administration!
November 7th, 2005 at 7:51 pmJail the chickenhawks for conspiracy! (that should get them hiding under their beds, no?)
Susan,
I agree, and apparently fitzgerald might agree with you as well – at least as far as administration officials are concerned…
November 7th, 2005 at 7:56 pmYeah, we’ll let Fitz take care of the Administration and we’ll build mental hospitals for the chickenhawks.
November 7th, 2005 at 7:59 pmThe Niger uranium fraud. The al-Libi fabrications. White House pressure on the CIA.
“The Iraq Stonewall Crumbles.”
November 7th, 2005 at 8:14 pmRyan,
I believe you’ll find Senator Reid’s comments in the past press releases on terrorism. Here is the link:
http://reid.senate.gov/record2.cfm?id=187665
He, like many other democratic Senators were making very hawkish comments about Iraq. They were looking at the very same intelligence that President Bush and others had. Don’t go down this path, you will be sorry. Once Libby is brought to trial, don’t think for a moment that Wilson won’t be asked to testify. I don’t think he can keep the story straight anymore he has told so many lies, but our incompetent media fails to call him out.
November 7th, 2005 at 9:04 pmThis story is also available with links to all the sources at my site: http://www.mattvanhorn.com/lies.html
November 7th, 2005 at 9:05 pmSorry TOADL, no Senators were allowed to “look” at the intelligence. They were given a review like the rest of AMerica you toad. Get a clue already. You support a liar and a traitor which makes you the same.
November 7th, 2005 at 9:41 pmSusan,
Why did Clinton bomb Iraq in ‘98. Was his intelligence faulty too? See, this argument carries no water here. Give it up and you will lose even harder next time.
November 7th, 2005 at 9:44 pm“Harder”, did you say harder TOADL? NED likes it hard and the hermaphrodite likes it even harder.
Wrong site TOADL, just type the word “porn” in your search engine and you should find the fuzzy little things you so crave.
November 7th, 2005 at 9:52 pmSInce this was a war on lies can’t bush,cheney etc be charged with warcrimes or am I mistaken
November 7th, 2005 at 10:05 pm#21. TOADL. Nope, I smell talking points there sunbeam. The issue is not about Joe Wilson or what he has or has not said. The issue is very simple: were the 16 words in the 2003 SOTU a bunch of crap, who knew they were and when did they know it. Because without the 16 words, the invasion was likely not supported in public opinion. Impeachable offences, sumbeam. Facts sonny, just facts. Come back when you have some to share.
November 7th, 2005 at 10:35 pm#21
“He, like many other democratic Senators were making very hawkish comments about Iraq. They were looking at the very same intelligence that President Bush and others had.”
You mean the falsified, counterfit, forgeries?
It is fake dip sh!t.
November 7th, 2005 at 10:47 pmTo add to your comment Terry, why isn’t TOADL upset with the Undersecretary of Defense (whatever the wimps name is) for NOT giving Bushie the report (lies) he wanted?
Double standard, Wilson tells the truth and the DIA lets the lies roll and Wilson is the bad guy.
November 7th, 2005 at 10:49 pm#24
“Why did Clinton bomb Iraq in ‘98.”
Because the US and the UN agreed that Saddam was not cooperating, so we bombed him. Unlike the unilateral, pre-emptive strike and occupation of Iraq that we have now. The world is not and was not behind us to attack Iraq. You need to get you facts straight idiot.
November 7th, 2005 at 10:50 pm#24
“Give it up and you will lose even harder next time.”
“lose even harder”
“lose even harder”
“lose even harder”
It just boggles the mind. WTF is that supposed to mean? I give up, time to move to a differnet post. Head starting to hurt. Blood coming out of eye sockets.
BOOM (head exploding)
November 7th, 2005 at 10:53 pmSpudgeBoy, we as normal thinking people understand that Senators and Representatives do not read bills they vote on. They are briefed. I think that is wrong and should be changed.
Senators and Representatives also do not read intelligence reports. They are briefed.
In Bushie world “briefed” means lied to.
Get a clue Bushie lovers, you can’t pin this on Senators both Democratic or Republican…they were lied to just like the American People were lied to.
November 7th, 2005 at 10:54 pmEyeryone. FOADL is NeD. Did you notice that in the Cheney thread they said this:
“#29
Just try to stop Alito – I would love to see a filibuster, although I don’t there is anyone with a spine left. Even if there were, we would just crush it! Enjoy!
Comment by FOADL — November 7, 2005 @ 9:08 pm”
Who else would use the term “crush” to describe anything? NeD would.
NeD, you are a sack of sh!t.
November 7th, 2005 at 10:59 pm#29, Susan, Feith was a cog in the wheel. How come Chalabi gets a red carpet when his BS was way off the mark? Nah keep the focus: the 16 words were an key part of the SOTU speech (I watched it – last time I have managed to stomach Chimpy – I watch him through blogs now), the what, who and when (thank you for playing Condi and John ‘I’ll take brownshirts for $500 Alex’ Bolton) is the key. Libby stalled the investigation long enough to get Chimpy back in, this will go long enough for Chimpy to pull out the pardon for whoever gets indicted (Rove, maybe one or two minor oiks).
November 7th, 2005 at 11:20 pmI want Feiths family to be harrassed for his actions. He did not give Bushie the lies he asked for and for that someone should be outed.
Our only other choice is to call him (Feith) a liar.
Whats it gonna be neocons? Should Feiths family be harrassed or should we just call him a liar?
THe choice is yours.
November 7th, 2005 at 11:31 pmHow come Chalib gets the red carpet? Come to mention it, how come Crown-Prince-King Abdullah gets a walk in the bluebonnets? Bush shut down charities he controled which funded 9/11. Okay, fine. But here’s a hint, folks: If these guys visit here wearing their traditional bedouin robes instead of the Armani they usually like, it is not a sign of respect. Face it. The Oil Men grabbed Bush by the balls and Bush squealed.
Worse yet, this idea that Bush’s plan depends on there being no dissent in democracy! Cindy Sheehan a crisis? Pleeze. Even the lowist politiweasel could execute a milk and cookies gambit, thus thwarting the the dangerous leftist attack.
So how did he look on TV? Good? Nordstrom’s treating him well? Did he roll up his shirt sleeves? He said we do not torture. Good move there, Bushie you’re doing a heckuva job.
November 7th, 2005 at 11:33 pm“We don’t torture. We just want to amke sure that we can continue to torture. I mean…we torture, but not like torture torture. Just stuff that can kill you. Come on, that ain’t that bad. Let me tell you about a badger I saw out the ranch. Duh doo, doooo.”
-President George W. Bush 11/7/05
November 8th, 2005 at 12:25 am#29
Tom,
That’s because Bush and Chalib probably share a bond in which they go to the Lincoln Bedroom of the White House, go to be with one another and bathe together in a tub full of crude oil.
I even think they masturbate in the stuff as well.
November 8th, 2005 at 12:28 amThe Bible Sez:
(Mat 5:29) And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
(Mat 5:30) And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
The “right†is an offense to God. Pluck it out! Cut it off! And cast it into Hell!
November 8th, 2005 at 5:16 amDon’t blaspheme.
November 8th, 2005 at 8:58 amWhere’s the blasphemy? If right wing conservative nuts, can quote the bible, so can others. Whether you like it or not, Jesus was a liberal. Did he advocate trickle down economics, tax cuts, war? Hmmm.
November 8th, 2005 at 9:46 amHeathens. Blasphemy is not to be toyed with. I like that Bible stuff in the Book of Matthew about Jonah being swallowed by the whale and living in its belly until it vomited him up on dry land a few years later, myself. And also that story about the flying saucer in the first chapter of Ezekial, too. I mean, and what about those butt-ugly angels that came out it? Phew!
Correct me if I’m wrong, as I really am a spiritual person, honest, but here is another quote I like: “men are like stone jugs—-you may lug them around where you like by the ears.”
Oooops. That was Samuel Johnson who said that.
