When will the MSM start mentioning Libby's PNAC connection?
I know, when Satan laces up his ice skates... but really, Libby is a central PNAC figure, an original signatory to all PNAC documents. Isn't this worthy of being reported on?

I mean, after all, we are rated 44th internationally in press freedom, easily outdistancing Bulgaria, Saudi Arabia, etc. :sarcasm:

1. I honestly don't see how it's relevant...
I mean, if it was a rarity, or even unusual, then maybe. But since almost all the PNAC signatories are in some way connected with this administration, how is the facy that Libby is one of them news?

3. It's just important to keep PNAC and its agenda in front of the public
and to let them know who is trying to deprive us of the America we used know and love.

6. PNAC is motive
It's why they're doing everything they're doing.

9. It's important because noticing them is like noticing
the Nazi's rise to power in Germany.

The events of the CIA leak case are only symptoms of a much much more serious cancer growing in the Bush administration.

That Libby is among them isn't news, its a valuable opportunity to again present the nation the inherent antisocialism/aggressive imperialism of Neoconservatism and the manner in which it has subverted traditional values of American foreign policy.

12. I agree it's not a bad idea to bring up PNAC again...
just pointing out that the fact that a Bush admin' official is a PNAC member isn't in itself newsworthy. Becasue, hey, aren't they all?

5. There was a thread with links to various PNAC references over the weekend
in relation to MSM coverage of the indictments. I just lost my star and can't afford a new one right now, or I would search for you

8. You'll never hear about PNAC in the
corporate whore media.

I have a friend who considers himself an independent - though he tends to lean right. He works for a production company that develops shows for the History Channel. Earlier this year I gave him a short course in PNAC and suggested it would make a good topic for a documentary. He wouldn't even let me send him the link to the PNAC website and told me flat out that no television news or documentary outlet would touch it. I couldn't believe the fear and paranoia. The admin. keeps the whores on a very short leash.

13. The MSM has yet to acknowledge the existance of PNAC
Cheney was also an original signatory, and he's still got his job.

14. Military Industrial Complex includes hired Media shills like Russert, etc.
Others include: Andrea Greenspan Mitchell, Chris Matthews, Wolf Blitzer

These people should be banned from any media outlet and some of them should potentially be indicted as well as co-conspirators in aiding and abetting the invasion of Iraq.

15. I sent "PNAC 101" to Fitz
to explain how and why we’ve come to this historic moment and "give context and perspective" to his current investigation. It connects the remaining dots to reveal the Big Picture that may not have been immediately obvious to him. Time will tell if he does anything with it.
