Quaker  I vote for the latter&

I have no doubt. The truth could be dangerous to much you hold dear.

how again is it you can tell its phoney? help me out here. Myself, I m unable to forecast the future.

Once again, slowly. You can tell whether it’s phony by having an honest investigation. So far, Sen. Roberts has been all promise and no action.

So either we have an investigation and find out, or we just assume everything’s fine and forget the whole thing.

If the intelligence product has not been delivered (“Roberts has long promised), how again is it you can tell its phoney? help me out here. Myself, I’m unable to forecast the future.

No Mousey, not spinning at all. Some would argue the VP is minor member of the WH – much less his chief of staff. Wake up and think.

Dugger , Don’t make me Spank You with a Bunch of VP Quotes, like this:

“The vice presidency isn’t worth a pitcher of warm spit.” – John Nance Garner

Why did he seize upon the aftermath of the indictment of a minor member of the White House

The Vice President’s Chief of Staff is a minor member of the White House? Is all that spinning making you dizzy?

And how exactly are you able to distinguish between inaccurate versus false intelligence?

How? With the phase II investigation and report Sen. Roberts has long promised.

Don’t try to kid us, Dugger. In the lingo of the President’s on chief of staff, the case for war was a “product” to be sold to the American public. Those who dared to dispute the sales pitch were de-legitimized, systematically and forcefully.

The “undisputed” intelligence from the NIE that was used in the administration’s sales pitch, was, in fact, quite openly disputed. The intelligence branch of the State Department held a dissenting opinion on several pieces of key evidence that were cited in the President’s State of the Union address and elsewhere.

But let’s not allow ourselves to get distracted by trivialities. Senate tradition has been violated. Sen. Frist has been affronted. That calls for action.

So if Reid’s little snit wasn’t a cheap, partisan stunt, why didn’t he enlist members from the other side of the aisle? Why did he seize upon the aftermath of the indictment of a minor member of the White House to make all sorts of outrageous accusations against the other party – instead of all of those responsible fro the war?

And how exactly are you able to distinguish between inaccurate versus false intelligence? Since all of that intelligence is classified, one wonders how anybody can conlude the intelligence was phoney. Do we need to send Fitzgerald after you? Ohh, the humanity!!

Unfortunately for you Quaker, Democrats and Republicans voted for the war.

So never mind if the intelligence was phony, right?

And Democrats are on record, pre-Bush, stating Saddam had WMDs and that we needed to do something about it.

If the intelligence was doctored, twisted, or outright false, we shouldn’t worry about it, right?

And additonally, the rationale for the war revolved around multiple reasons – not just WMDs.

So if the constant chant of “mushroom cloud, mushroom cloud, mushroom cloud” was based on bullshit, well, the “accountability moment” has passed, right?

And why shouldn t we use intelligence information?

We should. We should use it honestly and completely, especially when people’s lives are at stake.

But, you know, what’s really important is that Harry Reid called for a closed-door session.

Priorities, feh!

Dugger

a cheap parliamentary trick that took 2 hours of the Senate s schedule

Let’s compare that to two years of dithering on telling the American people the truth about how itelligence information was used to talk them into invading a third-world country at the cost of 2,000 American lives and possibly 100,000 Iraqi lives.

Yeah, Democrats are the extremists.

You’ve been drinking. Wait until 9am from now on.

Dugger, The Democrats Behaved like idiots for 8 years and permitted Republicans to get a very weak candidate elected twice, a candidate who has a appointed a lot of judges (BWahahahahaha).

Republicans were in some dissarray over Plame and Bush s poll numbers. So what does Harry the genius do: p*ss them off. Now they are united.

OhdearOhdearOhdear. You mean the Republicans are going to stop being so nice to us now?

Extremist? You’ve outdone yourself.

That the anti-war movement has set its sights on Clinton is nothing new. New York activists have long tried to gain their junior senator’s ear lobbying aides, dropping off peace flyers, forming the occasional picket line. One Albany-based group known as Women Against War even took to making what founder Jeanne Finley calls “a cinema vérité film,” featuring individual members enumerating why they oppose her position on the Iraq invasion.:

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) just weighed in on the Alito nomination, saying his record “raises serious questions about whether he will be steadfast in protecting our most fundamental rights.”

Still, she remained neutral [emhasis added - fd (no fool she)], saying the nomination “must initiate a thoughtful and deliberate process of closely examining and scrutinizing Judge Alito’s record to determine whether he merits a seat on the highest court in the nation.”

Alito is no neanderthal. There is no chance of overturning Roe or Griswold.

Get off the bong, and smell the coffee.
