1. The DSM is "old news"- just ask any top Democrat with media access.
When was the last time Hillary, Kerry, Dean, Obama,Reid even MENTIONED it?

4. Another hearing? Will it be ignored by top DEMs like the last one?
Or will they go on TV and talk about the hearing?

During the last hearing, Dean, Kerry, Hillary, Obama ("Star" DEMs with media access)all failed to even mention it in front of cameras or microphones. That is one reason why the story died so quickly.

2. I know I'm going to sound like an idiot but what is DSM?
I'm assuming from various posts it has to do with the false statements that led us to into war but what is the exact meaning?

5. Thank the media & top Dems. That's why you dont know.
DSM= "Downing Street Memo"

Ask your congressman & Senators why they refused to make you aware of its existence by talking about it on TV.

6. AH HA! Thanks for the meaning.
With the London bombings do you think this topic will surface anytime soon? My niave assumption is that DSM might be on hold for awhile. I hope I'm wrong!

7. Downing Street is IN London. So no reason for DEMS not to bring it up...
"The War on Terror" London bombings is DIRECTLY related to the DSM. The UK was bombed b/c they support the war, the war was BASED on the fake info mentioned in the DSM.

Yet DEMs have basically dropped it- at least I'm not hearing them speak of it on TV.
