This Morning In The Media...
I saw...

-MTV play "Mosh" 3 times in a 3 hour period, once following it up directly with "American Idiot" by Green Day.
-CNN and MSNBC repeating play of the video showing the explosives still at Al Qa Qaa on the 18th.
-That *lovely* press conference which had me swearing at the screen right up until question time. Then it had me rolling around on the ground clutching my sides as the journalists finally found their spines and shredded the spin. My favorite part? When the one reporter asked the Major who had just given the briefing how hard it would have been for someone other than the US military to remove 300+ tons of explosives from the site between April 18th when the video showed it was still there and when the inspectors showed up something like 20 days later and the major came back with (paraphrasing) "Well, I know that sounds like a big operation but we moved that much out in a single day..." and then his handler quickly cut him off and started babbling about how he was sure someoone would have seen it. It was priceless.
-And of course... FNC is going into full meltdown. They were practically YELLING at the cameras about that stupid satellite photo and Russians taking weapons to Syria and INSISTING nobody knows what the heck was in that ABC video!

It's going to be a beautiful day...

-Grant

1. Lets see

The name al-qaqaa stencied on the boxes

the evidence is kinda weak, don't you think?

2. Kinda like how the Aug 6 PDB was so vague, as it didn't list the names
and seat numbers as well as departing gate info for condi et al to go on.

3. Linda Vester on Faux is having the mother of all bad hair days.
I normally have a lot of empathy for women having bad hair days because I have experienced this horror too many times to count, but today all I feel is SCHADENFREUDE. :evilgrin:
