3. Wow......that coverage lasted almost as long as an orgasm......

It's such a hot potato they don't hold on to it long,that's for sure. Bastards.

4. Mentioned Tomorrow's Hearings And Rally

...said "we'll keep you updated".

Also Ron Reagan called them the "so-called" memos. WTF?

But it looks like this story has gotten some legs and the drumbeat on it continues. A week ago this network, except for Olbermann, didn't even consider the minutes to exist. That was until Mrs. Greenspan gave her blessings.

5. hey - its something!

Note to Ron: stop being the token Democrat Doormat. The only time I was truly impressed by you is when you got pissed on an MSNBC panel during the election and said, "why is discrimination against homosexuals the last allowable discrimination."

You try to "get along" and seem "worldly" too much. Be yourself, we might just love you for it!

6. What is a "so-called" memo?

I'm sitting here at my "so-called" computer in a "so-called chair" waiting for a "so-called" air conditioning repairman to come and fix my "so-called" air conditioner.

7. I guess it may be the same as

the "so-called" president who supposedly won two "so-called" fair elections who's in bed with all the "so-called christian" neo-con Repiglican reps. :eyes:

Aside: Sorry about your AC dying... it can get pretty miserable in the heat and humidity that's been around lately.

8. Like Being Kinda Preggers I Guess?

Now I don't expect to boggle their martini-soaked brains with the concept that there's MINUTES and now there are memos that amplify those minutes. I know this isn't sexy...no pedophilia or runaway white girls. But then...at least there has to be sufficient media pressure at this point that the story keeps moving along. Take the small steps.

London -- In March 2002, the Bush administration had just begun to publicly raise the possibility of confronting Iraq. But behind the scenes, officials already were deeply engaged in seeking ways to justify an invasion, newly revealed British memos indicate.

Foreshadowing developments in the year before the war started, British officials suggested in the memos that U.N. diplomacy be used to force Saddam Hussein into a misstep and that confronting the Iraqi leader be cast as an effort to prevent him from using weapons of mass destruction or giving them to terrorists.

The documents help flesh out the background to the top-secret "Downing Street Memo" published in London last month, which said top British officials were told eight months before the war began that military action was "seen as inevitable." President Bush and his main ally in the war, British Prime Minister Tony Blair, have long maintained that they had not made up their minds about going to war at that stage.
