The BEST part of the al Qaqaa scandal
Since the undecideds are still undecided, they would have shrugged at 380 tons of missing explosives because they obviously shrugged at so many other Bush* fuckups.

Now there is an attempted whitewash that went disastrously wrong, and that is MUCH worse.

It's never the crime it's the coverup. It's all over but the cryin for AWOL.

3. i see what you're saying, but


somehow attaching any "good" consequences to something that's going to have a real and very negative impact on American soldiers over the next year or two is tough for me.

Just a symantic point I know, but.....

6. Almost. The BEST part is the TV station w/ the video is Repug-owned
KSTP-TV in St. Paul, MN is owned by Stanley Hubbard, a long-time Republican money-man in the state, and nation. He has donated millions of dollars to the GOP at the state and national level over the years.

As a matter of fact, he also owns KSTP-AM, which is the local right-wing talkshow station, featuring all the usual suspects (Limbaugh, Liddy, etc.).

IMHO it's poetic justice that Hubbard's 'embeds'-- who were originally put with the 101st to send home pro-war propaganda-- are the very same ones who shot the video footage of the unguarded explosives with the IAEA seals on them.

After being a longtime critic of KSTP and Hubbard, THIS is the best part for me!!!
