Tweety covering the new memo, guest Phillipe Sands from UK.

on. They're both piling on, DSM mentioned, well worth a watch. Pretty scathing; can we impeach him yet? The guy and his cronies flat-out lied us into this war. But we know that. Sigh.

12. As mad as I get at Tweety,

I think he really does not think much of us being in Iraq and the lies that have been told that got us there. It puzzles me how he still fawns over Gee Du(m)b.

15. I personally think that they will pull a fast one

once the last drop of easy oil has been squeezed out of Iraq, then Fitzgerald will be papering DC with indictments, the scandal will bring Cheney down, then Bush will appoint
Mr. Clean, and then Bush will resign, our Treasury will be bankrupt, we will be left
with a messy meltdown in Iraq, and we will be left with a photogenic pusilaminous president
who is the GOP's hope for 08. And everyone will be mouthing "coming together" and a "fresh
start" and there will be no accountability.

7. Impeachment

I repeat my observation in another thread about the memo: Impeachment ain't going to happen.Not with our elected representatives working for special interests once elected,and with the Repugs being blindly loyal to their party,having no principles or moral values.

9. They were connecting the dots. Discussed Cheney's role,

and Powell's perhaps clueless complicity. (He had communications w/Jack Straw which basically said if a. and b. don't happen, war can't happen.) I don't know about war crimes (though wonder why not) but it wasn't a segment complimentary to the blivet, and I for one feel refreshed for at least having seen them address it.
Repeat is on at 7pm CT, or canofun?
Was CNN's coverage any good?

20. Don't you love the way Tweety pronounces "Cheney"?

"Cheeney" he says. He sure has some peculiar pronunciations.

"Amurricans" is another.

14. Finally..Finally�.. Geez these people are so freakin slow.

Chris actually discussed the fact that this admin planned war with Iraq before
taking over the WH in 2000.

I know I am not the only person in the world that knew this, but it sure felt like that for a looong time.

Buchannan mentioned PNAC and I think he said he has left the pug party.

Is that true, or did I hear wrong?

13. wow! another discussion coming up with NO right wing operatives!

Craig Crawford and Susan Pagediscussing the DSM still, but Page is blaming EVERYbody for not knowing we were going to war, because the first DSM was released in summer of 02!

wtf is she talking about?

NOBODY in the media mentioned that thing, or at least discussed it at ANY length, for YEARS

18. Page has never impressed me; I think she's an apologist. Now,

Craig Crawford is great imo.

22. I think Sands meant the Memo was from July '02, not its leak to the press.

That would make sense, because DU would have heard about it if it had been released in '02.

25. I know, but Page made it sound like it was common knowledge

almost at the time of its being written, as I recall her saying.

she was blaming people for being stupid in not knowing/realizing/calling BS during the runup.....one of those BS talking points along the lines of "everybody knew that!", as if the media were really covering it all over the place, instead of stenographing every little snip of drool from the admin--obsequious little toadies that they always have been, and continue to be, despite all the propaganda to the contrary
