2. they're doing a great job
Walter Rogers hit all the main points: intelligence fixed around policy; authenticity of memo not in doubt by anyone; Bush privately had every intention of bringing war to Iraq, regardless of what he said in public.

5. Last week CNN announced
that they were changing their format and would focus more on news and less on opinion. Let's hope this is just the beginning.

7. Yes and I wrote them about that stating that their slogan will be worth-
less if they didn't cover the DSM.

14. as Bill Moyers put it.. "The best way to be labeled a liberal..
is to tell the truth" .. thats why they demonized it, so as to open the door to "balance" .. which means a lie and the truth are both presented, and we know which is conservative and which is liberal!

10. NPR actually had a story about it this morning 0500 CDT!
Gave it a whole minute in their top of the hour newscast. It's ALMOST enough to give me some hope--then I remember that the Murkin Media has known about the DSM for A FUCKING MONTH and has done nothing.

Now, if this had concerned Bill (Lawfully Elected) Clinton, we'd already be sick of hearing about it 24/7.
