How about Steve Jobs buying those iPods for the kids? Makes more sense. No, I think our kids have too many toys already.

April 5, 2007, Cheney said there was an A-Q link with Iraq, of course Levin says there wasn't....and yesterday Thursday, the Pentagon issues papers say no evidence of it.... breitbart.com KLP Note: But MAYBE BERGER DID DO SOME REAL DAMAGE AFTER ALL....WILL WE EVER KNOW WHAT PAPERS HE TOOK??? Did the 9-11 Committee say there was no evidence because Berger destroyed it????? Check this out at the link: 09 Sep 2006 Liberal Majority on Senate Intel Committee Adopts Pouting Spook’s Press Releases neveryetmelted.com The merry gang of former John Kerry supporters in control of the US Intelligence Community under the Bush Administration have produced two extremely partisan reports, establishing that they were right all along: Saddam Hussein was perfectly harmless, had no WMDs, and had nothing to do with Al Qaeda or terrorism generally, and Bush lied. These conclusions are reached by the artful selection of data, and by systematically dismissing the sources of all evidence to the contrary of a preferred reality as unreliable on a variety of questionable bases. This source spoke to the Press, that proves he’s lying. And that source took a job with the Iraqi opposition, obviously he was always peddling propaganda on their behalf. If you throw out every piece of evidence you don’t like, using any convenient rationalization, it isn’t difficult to arrive at the conclusions you desired all along. The reports were adopted, and amended, in a series of partisan votes, in which so-called Republican Senators Olympias Snowe (Maine) and Chuck Hagel (Nebraska) voted with the democrats. New York Times story ———————————— The Reports: Postwar Findings on WMD Programs and Links to Terrorism Report on Information Provided by the Iraqi National Congress ———————————— AJStrata notes that media establishment journalists can’t read. Now I know why journalists get their stories so wrong so often - they lack basic reading comprehension skills. With all the hoopla about the Senate Intelligence report supposedly saying there were no ties between Saddam and Terrorists (despite Iraq documents which log the training of thousands of terrorists, and notes regarding meetings with Al Qaeda) it might behoove people to read them for themselves. ———————————— Flopping Aces quotes some sources the reports overlooked: Like the 2002 Congressional Resolution authorizing the use of force against Iraq. “Whereas members of al-Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility for attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq… ———————————— Macranger I’m still weeding through this “report”. First impressions I got is that it seems to read as if it were trying to convince me that Saddam had no ties to Al Qaeda as if by repeating over and over again I would descend in to a state of BDS and start a new liberal blog… Our Senate Intelligence Committee could care less about getting to the truth, for the Democrats on the committee it was just another way to get Bush, nothing more, and nothing less.
