FINALLY! CNN says video "TRUMPS" Pentagon's lies (Aaron Brown)
CNN FINALLY got around to reporting the video exposing the latest Pentagon/Bush LIE about the explosives.

Aaron Brown's Pentagon correspondent said the Pentagon tried all day to declassify a photo that "might suggest" the weapons disappeared earlier, "ONLY TO BE TRUMPED BY A MINNEAPOLIS TV STATION VIDEO SHOWING JUST THE OPPOSITE."

Aaron Brown said "indeed it does."

AWOL GETS NAILED IN ANOTHER LIE.

4. I don't care whose "side" he's on - JUST TELL THE FUCKING TRUTH
That's all I ask of the media. I don't care if the truth is good or bad for my side. That can sort itself out, as long as they don't whore or lie.

24. Exactly.....
.... I am not living under the delusion that Dems are always right and Repugs are always wrong.

I just happen to believe they are right a higher percentage of the time. And it is the media's job to tell us facts, and let us decided what is 'right'.

14. I met Aaron when he was a Seattle news anchor. He seemed like an okay guy.
Definitely smarter than most of them.

We were at the same holiday party for the news station.

3. Aaron Brown seems like the last guy with any integrity on cable news...
He's the only cable-news talking head I can watch for more than 5 minutes.

6. Keith Olberman is far better.
Brown is undependable but occasionally good.

7. LOL NOW they're trying to argue, according to Brown, that
the weapons were actually DESTROYED!!!!

ROFL!! No, no no, they weren't moved, not by the Russians, not by anybody. What gave you that idea? No, we DESTROYED them.

10. Good, David Kaye will be on soon. Their story so far wasn't nearly as
thorough as ABC's. Hopefully, Kaye will help make it perfectly obvious.

17. Correct me if I am wrong.
Didn't the United States kick out the UN inspectors (in much the same fashion as Saddam Hussein) after the United States invaded? I am having trouble remembering when this occurred.

18. Kay just said it IS "Game, set, match"
at least "in regards to this one bunker." "It WAS RDX and HMX" he said.

the final nail in Bush's coffin if there's any intelligence left in the public. And the polls should be showing an effect tomorrow - if not, I'll doubt the polls even more.

27. I Can't Believe I EVER CALLED HIM A LACKEY!!!!!!!!
He just destroyed the admin.

I swear, I take everything back I ever said about him. This guy has blown me away over the past few months. I'm floored. Really, really floored by this guy. He's got guts of steel; he's one of the bravest men I've ever seen. I'm not kidding. Think of what pressures he must be under. He's either one of the bravest men on the planet or an utter fool.

33. Freeperville is freaking on this one. They know the jig is up...
I'm very afraid our side is going to lose this one. That
tv station video is killing us.

..................................

Maybe you can give me the good news that's come out
of this....

.................................

Got news for everyone. NOBODY except Kerry supporters and MSM cares about this. By this time the election has been decided.

Smoking Gun....get ready for this weekend bombshell on the Kerry Camp. They had their shot, now it is our turn.

>>>>)


(This last post seems to be echoed a couple of times. Still hints of the Karl Rove engineered October surprise. It'll be impossible though to get past Kay's assertions I think.)
