6. That statement is no longer operative. (Ron Ziegler)
The art of the Handy Euphemism. An old Repug custom.

7. I assume "inaccurately told" is a direct quote from State.
In that case, all AP is doing is reporting what was said. Let the Morans translate it for themselves (if they dare to add the burden to their increasing cognitive dissonance).

8. No AP, He Fuckin' Lied! Dammit, Call a spade a spade
Edited on Thu Jul-28-05 07:59 PM by fearnobush
you worthless suck asses, your killing this country with such safety terms. Be true, we will protect you.

"Bolton was interviewed by the State Department inspector general as part of a joint investigation with the Central Intelligence Agency related to Iraqi attempts to buy nuclear materials from Niger, State Department spokesman Noel Clay said.

When Bolton filled out a Senate questionnaire in connection with his nomination, "he didn't recall being interviewed by the State Department's inspector general. Therefore, his form, as submitted, was inaccurate," Clay said. "He will correct it."
