Where the hell is Greg Thielman no media spotlight on him???
Greg Thielmann, who ran military assessments at the State Department’s Bureau of Intelligence and Research until October, said intelligence clearly was manipulated to make the most hawkish case possible for war. He told Congress at the same hearing Rumsfeld attended that data on the Iraqi threat was “misrepresented on the part of the administration.”

==================================================================
Yes I know he has been in the print media, but no word on T.V. appearances. Does he not want the attention? Is the media just teasing us? What are your thoughts on this?

1. Sunday Talk will be "just one line in SOTU" and Saddam gone is good
Greg Thielmann is not of interest to the Sunday Talk folks - their job is the protection of the GOP, and the spreading of the latest Rove spin.

I note the Iraq story on the small unit war to get Saddam back into power is not making the US news channels - although the interview with the "militia" fellow is on the wire.

gee - guess the war is over and those dying now are just like the folks that die at bases in the US - just a normal death from gun shoot wound to the belly today - no need to report it with any other spin.

3. True - but evening news and NYT/WP/LAT print is where votes are changed
and that has not happened.

At least not yet.
