<snip>
The Defense Department strongly denied the claims made in the report, which cited unnamed current and former intelligence officials and was published on the magazine's Web site. Pentagon spokesman Lawrence Di Rita issued a statement calling the claims "outlandish, conspiratorial, and filled with error and anonymous conjecture."

1. Yipes! "Conspiratorial?"

Watch your back, Sy...

[Straight Shooter]

2. Someone connected with * called him a terrorist a while back

Can't remember who it was. They hate Sy Hersh. He speaks truth and it makes them crazy. It also makes them afraid. Very, very afraid.

[Zuni]

4. Bush is very afraid of Hersh

He is afraid of Hersh writing the truth about him like he did about Kissinger

[Arianrhod]

5. The "neo"Cons are afraid of anyone who tells the truth.

Their agenda depends on lies, and having those lies exposed is something they will do anything to prevent.

We need to always remember that.

9. Richard Perle, who threatened to sue and slinked off to France instead

[Zuni]

3. Seymour Hersh has more character

and honesty in his pinky finger than Rumsfeld has in his heart

[Kool Kitty]

17. Oh, come on-

you can't say that. Rumsfeld doesn't even have a heart.

[Cleita]

6. Well, experts on lying ought to know when others do it.

:evilgrin:

[leftofthedial]

7. their criticism

"outlandish, conspiratorial, and filled with error and anonymous conjecture."

is exactly what they always say when something is true.

[RapidCreek]

18. Odd that they didn't embelish on what exactly was

outlandish and why, conspiritorial and how, what exactly were the errors not to mention what exaclty is it they feel is conjecture and why.

Odd also that none of the media has asked these questions.

10. Jesus, they couldn't even send Shemp

[BrotherBuzz]

12. Hey! dems is fighting words!

I think Shemp was a comic genius. It just takes a long time to figure him out because he was so far ahead of the curve.

[thebigidea]

13. oh, I'm a huge fan of Shemp, voted "ugliest man in Hollywood"

but these guys had the temerity to go with "Curly Joe" as their spokes-stooge. Shameful choice. Wolfowitz will probably trot out General Joe Besser next.

[BrotherBuzz]

16. OK, OK, OK! LOL...

I'm just very sensitive about Shemp bashing. ;)

11. Sy is going to STICKVILLE!!

"Filled with errors' TRANSLATION is that there may be a word misspelled.

"Anonymous Conjecture" TRANSLATION please please don't mention any names until we can figure out how to sweep this under the rug.

Well, you better get a BIG broom because this one is going to STICKVILLE!!!

Get more glue for us Sy, Get more glue and nail them.
The Hague, The Hague

:bounce: Sy is going to STICKVILLE!

[BattyDem]

14. Let's see ... should I believe the DoD or Sy Hersh ...

Hmmm, that's a tough one ... :eyes:

[Spinzonner]

15. That means he misspelled a word
