Elaine Quijano just asked McClellan about the DSM
and he dismissed Conyers as an individual who voted against the war and just wanted to rehash old stuff. It was a nonanswer to her question of would * respond to Conyer's letter. McClellan tried to rush on asked if Conyers didn't deserve the courtesy of an answer. McClellan got all closed in his body language and mumbled something about that question having been already addressed. He called on someone else.

3. Not proof but certainly enough to ask for an investigation
The minutes only address what the Brittish concluded after talking with Bush*. They said after talking with Bush* they came away feeling a military attack was inevitable. That is not proof it is just an impression but a valid one. What I would consider proof is Bush* withdrawing 700 million dollars away from Afghanistan effort to start building up troops near Iraq and the doubling of bomber runs against Iraq with no provacation. All this happened months before Bush* got IWR passed in Congress.

8. have you seen the other DSM documents?
Edited on Thu Jun-16-05 12:36 PM by notadmblnd
I was talking about them as a group, not just the first one. Raw Story has an excellent timeline of who was doing what when. Yes, I do think the DSM's are proof.

6. He said "It has already been re-hashed"
Their attempts at avoiding the question are so transparent.
