With the news on the Pentagon and Douglas Feith's breaking today--("inappropriate" actions in advancing conclusions on al-Qaida connections not backed up by the nation's intelligence agencies)—I wanted us to see how these manipulations were put into play on Meet the Press, the show that the OVP thought was the perfect place to "control the message."

From Hardball 11/08/05. Remember when Dick Cheney said it was pretty well confirmed before he didn't?

In '01, Cheney said this on MTP:

CHENEY: It's been pretty well confirmed that he did go to Prague and he did meet with a senior official of the Iraqi intelligence service in Czechoslovakia last April.

on 6/19/04 CNBC, he said:

GLORIA BORGER, TV SHOW HOST: You have said in the past that it was, quote, "pretty well confirmed."

CHENEY: No, I never said that. BORGER: OK.

CHENEY: I never said that. BORGER: I think that is...

CHENEY: Absolutely not.

Back to you Tim...

  • Dick Cheney is evil personified.

  • did you not just hear cheney speak the words "pretty well confirmed". i beleive the man to be an evil genius, not a mindless parrot. russert's not putting words in his mouth. he see's the intel briefings, not tim russert. he informs policy discissions, not russert. but hey, blame the news man, it's easier than admitting you support the worst executive branch in our nation's history.

see all

  • It;s the least of his crimes - but this filthy lying son of a bitch shot one of his criminal accomplices in the face with a shotgun at point blank range while drunk, hunting without a license, and failed to even report it to the police. You or I would be doing twenty years. They swept it under the rug.

  • There are so many good people on planet earth then there is this evil piece of shit. I truly despise this garbage. When he dies, and I hope it is soon I will not bat an eye because his suffering will begin. You don`t get away with all the evil shit you do in life. He and his family along with the bush criminals ruined our country. He made billions of his illegal wars and is responsible for every good soldier that died. To All of the innocents in iraq we are sorry.
