I'm not very good on "nuances" or "seances" so usually simple truths are the best way....

Thanks. The left wingnuts are hating you for posting the truth. It makes their job of diseminating disinformation that much harder. Frankly, the only "wingnuts" on this thread are of the rightish variety. If you look closely at the article, you will see that the publishing site, CNS, has an "exclusive" on this story; that a high ranking gov't official "who is not a political appointee" provided CNS the Iraqi Intel documents which allegedly contain the info that fingered Saddam. Now you have to ask yourself: why would a high ranking gov't "who is not a political appointee" give or leak such info to a rather minor website in the media business? Furthermore, you would have to assume that the Iraqi documents are highly, highly classified. That means the public official must be very high in the gov't and has really put his or her job at risk. Who could it be? Condi Rice? Well, most gov't officials that high would have to be political appointees. So it would be hard to believe that a non political appointee had access to the info in question. And if the Iraqi documents do say what CNS purports, why would the WH not release the info publicly? In fact, why are they not all over this like bees on honey? This info can only be a plus for Bush's campaign. I'll tell you why.......because its BS. So you have to stop and think for just a minute? Who is CNS? Ahhh.........good question. CNS is owned by Media Research Center...the same research center that recently reported the liberal bias in mainstream. If you dig deep enough, you find out that MRC is a 501 not for profit org. with many donors. How much you want to bet those donors are well off righties? cnsnews.com As for stevo, he has marginal credibility on this thread. Some of his posts are good but most of it is of the CNS variety. So lets go back to your original comment about wingnuts. Like I said earlier, the only wingnuts on this thread are of the rightish variety.
