I'm still reeling from the shock!
Of the CNN special. I just watched it out here in California and some of the things being said we're a being said I was surprised we're being let out. I knew this special was coming on, but there was no indication or lead up to it that said it would be this hard hitting, it came out of nowhere Was anyone else shocked that this special was so hard hitting?

6. I should warn you
there are quite a few here who are NOT particularly fond of the DLC

Many believe they are just a culpable for letting this administration get away with what they did

As for the show, it is much too late, and much too little

7. Kwitcher bitchin'
They said it, and internet junkies to the contary, the bulk of the US public still gets there news from TV.

CNN is damned if they do and damned if they don't.

Bottom line, they put this together and broadcast it. To a great many people it will be a bomb, and will probably change a lot of minds. Could it have jone further? Sure. But what's the betting that there is a similar Plame type program waiting for indictments.

9. first of all I wasn't talking to you
second someone had an entry which implied that the person who started the thread was a DLCer, because of that persons aviator

I was just commenting on observations on DU that some have about the DLC to the person who started the thread.

11. You said,
"As for the show, it is much too late, and much too little"
Unless it's a PM it's a comment to the world, one I don't agree with, and one on which I chose to express my disagreement.

10. oh, and by the way
tell that to the 1800 plus dead Americans, and 13000 wounded, plus the over 100000 civilians that have been killed in our name, that the "media" is doing the right thing now

14. Your glass is half empty, isn't it?
Send an e-mail to CNN telling them not to rebroadcast the show.

15. Not really, just extremely pissed at the MSM, and how
wonderfully one sided they have been for the last 13 years. You see I remember what they did to Clinton also

Its going to take a lot more than one program to convience me that they have turned a corner

13. Hopefully, if anything, some people that don't surf the net for news, will
find something useful from it.

17. DU seems to be split down the middle on this one....
There's quite a few threads going right now.

I thought it was pretty good, considering the source. I don't think smirky and his cohorts came out looking to good in this special.
