Dynamite Report on Hardball

[earthside]

Great report from David Shuster just now on Hardball.

If you didn't see it, catch it on the repeat after Abrams' show.

Shuster says Fitzgerald is looking at who forged the Niger documents!

1. That figures! I have had the odious wolfe and his ongoing "situations" on

Only because Cafferty has been making all sorts of smart assed remarks about the bush admin lately.

I can't believe Mathews is allowing anyone to disrespect his most revered Chimperor.

2. day three of an hour of Plame/Rove

Matthews has been great this week.

4. more to come after a Wilma report.

[Carni]

10. I just tuned in

Hopefully I didn't just jinx all the people enjoying this episode by doing so!

[Carni]

9. If I tune in it's almost guaranteed that he'll go back to his usual self

But I will give it a try because I can't stand one more minute of the *SITUATION ROOM* and that asinine muzack they play as a theme!

11. Matthews has clearly decided he wants to be out in front of this story.

His show has been amazing this week, and although I thought I knew the Plame case inside and out, I've learned a few things this week.

When the thing breaks open and becomes THE story, Matthews wants to be the go-to guy. I hate admiring him, but for that, I do. :-)

Charlie Black is really, really blowing it tonight... if that's the best they've got, it's going to be :popcorn: time!

17. Matthews ego won't allow less than front&center

[rodeodance]

3. Even Tweety said this will become worldwide and not just WH aide

problems!!

[rodeodance]

5. tweety was talking of the reasons for going to war by Cheney and showed

a clip of Wilson.

[karlrschneider]

6. Tweety's like fellatio in a hurricane

...blowin'in the wind.

7. Hey guys did I hear Shuster say that Chalibi was the source of the

forged documents!!! Italy has traced them back there and Fitz was there to talk to the Italians about it???

[eShirl]

8. Curveball threw a curveball?

"No one could have predicted..." :D

[lovuian]

13. I totally agree it blew me away!!! Hit us right off the bat!!!

Chalibi is still walking around too!!!

[katty]

19. not for long

[Peachhead22]

23. Could Chalabi BE Curveball?!

I doubt it. But wouldn't that be un-freaking-real. I do think Curveball worked for Chalabi though.

[katty]

18. Geezus! I just read about this...

[HereSince1628]

12. It's been reported for over a week. But there is no indication that

Fitz' has actually found out who did it.

Personally, I'd say a friendly nation in the middle east. But then I'd be guilty of succumbing to my own personal biases about the Neocon-AIPAC-Likud connections.

[MN ChimpH8R]

15. The only reason you're succumbing is because it's true!

:evilgrin:

[HereSince1628]

22. Could be, but I recognize my own bias

[WiseButAngrySara]

14. It was excellent...I caught most of it. I'll catch the rest on the rerun.

The ONLY reason I watched it with intent was that someone else suggested it on another post, and it was a non-Tweety lover (as I am)on DU. Fitz's new website was mentioned, and it was agreed that this likely meant closure and/or indictments.

[katty]

16. No way!! gawd this is cake and ICE CREAM too!

20. What is wrong with Matthews?

I have liked him since the start. He's one of the best interviewers out there, and I, unlike the rest of the world, like his style.

There's always been a lot of animosity towards him on DU that I never took the time to ask about...so what is it?

21. Tweety spreads reichbot lies and disinformation
