Mike Barnicle Finally Gets A Clue: Suskind Interview

[phdecora]

why do these news shows always have to have PEOPLE SPEAKING IN THIS LOUD VOVICE VERY FAST VERY QUICKLY

[Whoo69]

And I'm a little leery believing what this Suskind guy says, not because it's unbelievable Bush could've lied but because he's making this book NOW. The last books that were published saying Bush lied were I think in 2005 or 06. It's now years later, and for him to take this long to supposedly get access to forged documents showing the Bush Admin. told the CIA to lie about the links between al-Qaeda and Saddam is a bit odd. Why couldn't he have gotten access to this earlier?

[Whoo69]

Call me a cynic, but I think Suskind is just trying to make money, get a little fame and tv time, and profit off the fact that it's an election year, and most Americans want us out of Iraq. Why would he take this long to publish the book?? I'm sure he got access to this info years ago but waited until just the right moment to be a sleaze.

[Whoo69]

and lastly, why the fuck is the media asking the Bush Administration or reporting on "what they claim" about this book? Of COURSE they're gonna say "We didn't lie." Do you really think the people who got us in this war are gonna admit the reasons for it had no basis in fact?? God, our media is fucking stupid. Mainstream media needs to get a life.

[phdecora]

he actually didnt uncover the habbush letter story until he was almost done writing the book. he has talked about this in interviews. if the book had come out in 2007, there would be no 'forgery' story in the book.

[Whoo69]

While it's not unreasonable to suggest the administration lied about the WMDs and links to al Qaeda, there seem to be an awful lot of good arguments from the right saying that we're just mistaken, and the administration has done a bad job in trying to prove Saddam really was going after WMDs. People claim David Kay lent credence to the Lefties, but others, so I hear, say that they just haven't read his whole report, and they actually have found some WMDs. I'm not quite sure.

[Whoo69]

Does anyone know if Ken Timmerman has any credibility? The guy makes a lot of interesting charges about "shadow warriors" in the CIA, State and Defense Depts. and claims Bush DIDN'T lie. I dunno. He seems to make a good case if it's true, but I haven't found any sources through google that claim he's a liar. Of course, not many people seem to have heard of his Shadow Warriors book. Even Fox News hasn't interviewed him, believe it or not!

Maybe he's just a sore loser?

[chiefnugt]

There should be hearings about this. If what Suskind's book says happened is true, Bush should be impeached.

[tworag]

Suskind is right. This country cannot move forward without outing the corruption of the Bush administration and bringing them to them to justice. Time to take back our country!

Mike "Mr. Boston" Barnicle has finally seen the light.

Hallelujah!!

I'm waiting for No Joe Scarborough to wake the hell up as well.

*spits* Elitist Hog!

[kargenlewis]

can people remember what happened yesterday? the day before that? all of bushes lies? how could you forget his war crimes and all his lies?

people want to muddy waters that are very clear. bush is a liar and pig and war criminal!

[bodah44]

obama is a fool for not talking about this stuff. and pelosi is just a disgrace

[yawakoben]

Obama would lose if he talked about this. Those "Middle American" voters would not tolerate a Black, supposed Muslim, supposed-terrorist, supposed-Marxist, supposed-socialist, supposed Anti-American presidential candidate charge Bush with conspiracies. His campaign would be undermined and the feelings that "he is not one of us" would be verified and thus he would be unelectable.

[warrencray]

IT'S ON.

[josephbnany]

welcome to the Real World, Mr. Barnicle.

[likes2p]

haha yeah this moron still thinks that "the surge is working"

[souljaEXVOTO]

what in the hell do they have on Nancy Pelosi? A sex scandal or something... impeachment should have been served up like a ham at christmas to hungry people years ago.

[Nutrino2179]

Godfather Cheney is wise to the ways of Washington. He has kept the dogs off his heels the way good Godfathers do - by making the prosecutors accessories to his crimes. Cheney made sure enough key members of Congress were briefed on issues like torture so that later, if the full extent of the program became known, they could not come after the White Hose w/out their own foreknowledge and duplicity being revealed and their political careers ended. He judged their weakness of character correctly.

[FUCKYOURGODINTHEASS]

You can bet the CIA has something on tape. I wouldn't be surprised if they had some sort of all congress orgy. It's like they have something on everybody in both houses of congress.

[tworag]

souljaEXVOTO - Totally. I've said Cheney has threatened to slit the throats of her grandchildren. I'm serious. I wouldn't put anything above these bastards.

[CaptainYellowShirt13]

Yeah I feel like this administration is easily the worst ever. And history will probably judge it as worse than how we view it today... I mean more and more lies and impeachment-worthy stuff seems to come out every month... the Dems in Congress are such tossers, they should atleast try to impeach the assholes in office. Im British and I must say I love many things about America but the GOP and the Government of America I cannot stand

[souljaEXVOTO]

yeah tossers! ((( love it.

well we hate 'em too mate.

stay tuned, maybe they'll have to do it sooner or later....

so many of us are working on it every single day.
