More Right Wing Spin, read if you won't vomit
I won't even post the content, just the link from John Tierney at the NY Times.

1. The Times should be ashamed of themselves for printing these lies
Then again, what else is new for the Times?

3. I say the more the merrier of this type of crapola
When the INDICTMENTS come down these turkey's will look like fools and we'll be able to extract "evenge" on them any time we want.

4. I couldn't get past the first few paragraphs.
I'd say it's more headache inducing than vomit inducing, though I didn't make it to the real content.

Whenever conservatives bandy about pop-culture references, they never seem to make the least bit of contextual sense. It's a strange window into the conservative mind, though.

5. 2 questions...
1. Please remind me again why Ann Coulter wanted to see airplanes flown into the NY Times Building.

2. Why wasn't this the spin RIGHT AWAY when this thing first started? If all Plame did was make coffee and open the mail (as the spin is gradually implying), why did Bush feel the need to threaten firing ANYBODY in the WH who was responsible for leaking the name? If the Consoviets had simply worked this angle from day one, Rove's nuts would probably not be in the fire today.

3. (OK, 3 questions) What exactly in this so-called bipartisan report totally refutes Wilson's findings? And, again, why wasn't this report front page news from day one?

6. 1- Ann Coulter is to the right of Attila the Hun and an idiot
2- Bushco thought this would be dead by the time Bush left office or they could dodge the bullet somehow. Guess not.
3- Nothing totally refutes Wilson. That's a lie. The report was page one but not for the RW reasons. The report basically made the point that our intelligence sucked before the war, yada yada yada, stuff you've already heard. At the end of the report there is a section for the Republican Senators to give their dissents, that's where the RW'ers get their stuff.
