3. Clarification?

Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 08:38 AM by mahatmakanejeeves

When you say the pictures were "taken," did you mean that the editors removed the pix from the websites, or that you copied the pix from the website?

Response here indicates that people infer that the editors removed the pix. The presence of the pix here lead me to infer that you have copied the pix to DU.

Completely different meanings. Which is right?

6. It's all about the PR

They're trying to make things happy and go-lucky and like all is well so people will stop blaming Bush.

8. I hope everyone is contacting CNN, MSNBC, FAUX

Demand that they not give in to this censorship. We have a right to know, they have a duty to report the facts, however hard it may be to see.
