		<description>This explains why Roberts is so eager to do the White House&#039;s bidding, maybe. If he gets out of line they can always say, &quot;About that intelligence blunder we never prosecuted you for...the DOJ has been kind of bored lately, and all it would take is one phone call... Good Pat! Delay that report another year! Here&#039;s a biscuit!&quot;</description>

		<description>You&#039;re not in Kansan anymore, Mr. Roberts.
Take Toto back to Texas where he belongs.
While you&#039;re at it, take the Tin Man &amp; the
Scarecrow with you...we looked behind the
curtain &amp; found KKKarl pulling the strings.
&lt;strong&gt;Tony Snow is a lying piece of SHIT!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>First Darin, based on your points I believe that is why Pat Roberts will be the next VP. Secomd,  sexion of course it makes sense that you start attacking Murray Waas.Your unsubstaintiated claims are easy for you to make they&#039;re the based on the reasoning you complain others on this blog use to challenge your side of the argument.i though you were all about facts. What&#039;s up my brother. You can do better than your feebly  attack in #9. And seriously so what if the Liberal blogs are dazzled? If the White House hadn&#039;t used the nuclear option on Valerie Plame to counter Joe Wilson maybe the game would be different, but credibility is in the eye of the beholder and yes the tactics used by either side are debatable but  using anonymous intelligent soureces isnot just the sole franchise of the Right.You can no more call up the CIA and comfirm anything Bob Novak says any more than with Mr. Waas. I think you have Blog envy.</description>

		<description>[...] Though Sen.

Roberts&#8217; case is an example of &#8220;how rank and file intelligence professionals now have much to fear from legitimate and even inadvertent contacts with journalists, while senior executive branch officials and members of Congress are almost never held accountable when they seriously breach national security through leaks of information.&#8221; &#160; [...]</description>

		<description>Sometimes people try to describe anything that is more that one minute old as old news.  Well the truth is that in our &quot;that was so twenty minutes ago&quot; world the right wing depends on the short attention span of the public.  We are bombarded with fear and irrelevant stories of the latest tourist kidnapping in the Bahamas or another Lacy Peterson story to distract us from the real stories that sometimes take time to fully reveal themselves.

The right wing would have Americans believe that if something happened to fly &quot;under the radar&quot; then it doesn&#039;t matter.  The truth always matters, and hypocrisy sometimes takes time to expose itself.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s their football and they make the rules to suit them. 
 Their farts don&#039;t stink.
 Do as I say not as I do.  
 They are rotten with power; hypocrites all.
 Roberts, who has stymied the Phase II of the investigation into the pre-war Intel, putting off any possible substantive conclusion until so far into the future, Bush will be out of office.  
 Did someone say Cheney should take an early retirement and Roberts be set in his place?  He already knows how to leak information.</description>
