Blitzer: "I think you'll agree that Saddam was a threat...."
This is how he addresses the first question to Bill Press, who of course disagrees.

1. I think you'll agree you're a sorry excuse for a journalist Wolfie
Edited on Tue Sep-12-06 03:38 PM by shadowknows69
actually to even use that term in relation to you is an obscenity to the institution of the fourth estate.

2. Because he wasn't
Creating a failed state in Iraq that could replace Afghanistan as a terrorist haven...THAT'S a threat.

3. A threat to whom - and in what way? I hate ambiguous words.

4. That's outrageous.
Blitzer is either an idiot or a low-key version of Hannity/O'Reilly/Limbaugh.

Sorry excuse for a journalist, for sure.

5. Watts can't stop lying.
Now he's whining about Bush*'s speech being appropriate.

Total crapfest.

7. Always Remember-Wolfie was unknown as a Class D Minor leaguer
Before Bush War #1 in "Middle Eastern Theater"...he be knowing who's buttered his bread all these years.

I'm convinced he's one of the most mediocre hacks in journalism history.

There's a reason he and McCafferty are physically separated:argh:

11. Blizer is a RW shill and a hack posing as a Journalist.
I bet his offshore account is PHAT.

8. Bill Press should have Wolf Blitzer's job. Beginning several years ago.
Blitzer is so pro-Republican it's almost beyond belief.

I like it in the rare times I've been able to catch the program when jack Cafferty knocks Wolf for a loop on one of Wolf's inane questions.

Jack doesn't shovel a lot of bullshit from anybody these days.

We all know Blitzer isn't being paid to think.

13. I wish they would explain how he was a threat
Everytime they do they say he would give the terrorist his WMDs. He had no WMDs and in no way was he a threat to the USA. He may have been a small time tyrant in his own country but he was small time, very small time, and in no way a threat, to the USA or any other country....When they start out with such an assumption make them prove it...
