Quoting Paul in #reply-18831847 : BTW, what was the relationship between Eason Jordan and Uday Hussein? Why does Uday tell Jordan that the his going to kill the two son-in-laws before hand? How does that happen? Why does Uday trust him with the information? Why does he give him the information? We are at the toilet seat level of this story. Were going into the pool of crap before we are done. Offhand, I think it's fair to say that Paul is intimately familiar with the crap topic. Looks over the top to me, anyway. Just for the record, the Eason Jordan op-ed that's generating all the self-righteous breast-beating here is nytimes.com . Near as I can tell, "over the top" is a pretty accurate concise summary of the local take on it.

Paul makes a comment or two about CNN and you accuse him of going over the top???? Not making the claim. Rather not offering evidence for the claim. This is, after all, or should be, a discussion forum, in which the claim that CNN is thus and so can be discussed. But discussion can't proceed if the person advancing an argument offers no evidence for it. All that can happen is sort of a childish "it is", "no it isn't", "yes it is", "no it isn't" back and forth. That's all I'm talking about.
