RAWSTORY gets mention in The U.K Sunday Times!
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2087-1669292_1,00.html
<snip>
"Last week one US blogger, Larisa Alexandrovna of RawStory.com, unearthed more unsettling evidence. It was an overlooked interview with Lieutenant-General T Michael Moseley, the allied air commander in Iraq, in which he appears to admit that the “spikes of activity” were part of a covert air war."

Way to go La La! What a great mention - is Rawstory.com ready for the increased hits?

4. It's more than a great mention ... as was pointed out
it may be the real smoking gun.

"From June 2002 until March 20, when the ground war began, the allies flew 21,736 sorties over southern Iraq, attacking 349 carefully selected targets. The attacks, Moseley said, “laid the foundations” for the invasion, allowing allied commanders to begin the ground war.

The bloggers may have found their own smoking gun."

What was unearned was that Bush started this war before obtaining approval from Congress. Why isn't there more outrage about this?
