Let's respond to this lying Freeper LTTE
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/opinion/letters/sfl-br208jul26,0,1002841.story?coll=sfla-news-letters

excerpt:

"Joe Wilson is a fraud and a liar who has capitalized on a gullible media better than Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister, ever could.

He alleged that he found no evidence in Niger that Iraq had tried to buy yellowcake, the raw material for nuclear weapons. In fact, his report to the CIA reported otherwise, the U.S. military found substantial quantities of yellowcake in Iraq (which we secured), and British intelligence independently found proof of Iraq's intent to buy yellowcake in Africa.

Joe Wilson lied when he denied that his CIA wife sent him to Niger. The U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee produced documentary proof that she was indeed responsible."


The ignorance of the right is as stifling as the heat. If they think blaming the "liberal" media for the mountains of problems caused by this administration is going to make the people forget who got us here, they're as "dead wrong" as our prewar intelligence.

The frequency of letters like this in my local paper have increased in the past month or so, and I worry that those less informed will fall for this disinfo campaign like they fall for everything else.

1. They would actually have to live somewhere that had a moderate
media before they could understand just what BS this 'liberal media' they harp about constantly is.

Until then, explaining anything to them is pointless.

2. Trying to teach a pig to sing
is an exercise in futility and it annoys the pig too. You can't argue with a closed mind much less one that's been NAILED shut.

5. Media Matters has debunked all of this

I'd help, but the Sun-Sentinel just published one of my letters last week, so they won't publish another for 30 days.

And is he writing about 1991 with this comment?

the U.S. military found substantial quantities of yellowcake in Iraq (which we secured),

I'm constantly amazed that the Sun-Sentinel continues to publish these "liberal bias" LTTE's.

PS: Hi neighbor. :hi:
