Don't have a link yet.

3. That would require having caught them.
They've arrested 'suspects' but that means absolutely nothing.

2. This is a criticism of CNN, not you: how is, they MAY be Iranians, Breaking!?!
They MAY be little green men from Mars, but that's not news.

24. The war on Pluto has already started. It will be a long war.
It takes a long time to get to Pluto and back.

But we have already revoked their planet status!!!!!

What happens when meteorites from the Planet Pluto
crash into Buenos Aires? Will people stop to contemplate
whether the Plutonians were provoked?

11. I told you bush does not want to end war.
bush will do anything and he does not care who gets killed how he destroys this country to stay in power. If he attacks Iran he will declare himself dictator and will never leave office. CONGRESS HAS TO STOP DIDDLING AND PASS THE RESOLUTION REVOKING THIS MADMANS' WAR POWERS. If they go on record and he insists he will be arrested for treason. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THEY WILL GET THIS PIECE OF CRAP OUT OF OFFICE.

13. Yes, and I call a nice, big, fat, hearty
bullshit on that. Oh, what's that, you didn't hear me? I said BULLSHIT! BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT, ad infinitum. Ain't it convenient that this is allegedly "happening" right when Congress is starting to actually question Junior's Iraq policy?

14. One detail they are using to support the "Iranians did it" theory
is that the attack did not follow the usual mode of the insurgent attacks, and that they wondered how the attackers had gotten vehicles "very similar" to the ones used by the American troops. So, help me understand how this points to the Iranians? I can think of another group this detail points to, but I won't.

28. Don't worry about the "link" because it's CIA OP "Psyops" giving them
the latest Propaganda. Barbara Star and the rest of the CNN TEAM have been on for two days RAMPING THE IRAN...MOST EVIL SINCE SADDAM/WORSE THAN SADDAM, MEME!

If we ATTACK SADDAM in CNN's VIEW it will ALWAYS BE...because we were either "REACTING...or doing the Bush Doctrine "PRE-EMPTIVE STRIKE!

You can't win with CNN or change their minds because they are TOTALLY FUNDED!

I think this is why Cheney has been such a cock. He knows what's coming. He knows this current Iraq surge will be moot the minute the missiles launch.
