This may be the best news I've seen in years. Rumsfeld getting grilled by the people. God Bless America.

1. And when the news does a fact check
they will find that Ray McGovern was truthful about everything he said... Rumsfield did say those things, it is on record....

4. Not so fast...CNN is already trying to spin it...
They found a part later in the same Rummy transcript wherein he said that maybe the WMD's were snuck out of Iraq, and therefore it means that technically he didn't lie.

5. It wasn't only McGovern, there was a lady and another man
who were seen on television yelling at Rumsfeld before the McGovern segment, which came during the question and answer part of the show. I'm just happy that people are voicing their frustrations in public.

8. Olbermann has already said it
He listed the date, the speech and the exact words Rumsfield said... McGovern had it word for word....

7. A strong, robust thanks to you for posting and a weak, diluted, backwash
thanks to CNN for posting.

I hate how the f^%$ing MSM has decided it's "OK" now to show the dissent instead of the assent.

Here's to hoping that there are lots of young, up and coming journalists who will return the profession to one of watchdog rather than lapdog.
