What kind of doublespeak is this on CNN?

[joemurphy]

Condi is meeting with Bush to report on the prospects of a cease-fire in the Middle East. OK.

But Bush has refused to call for a cease fire calling what's happening "an opportunity"; Condi WAS refusing to call for a cease fire (now I don't know what she's calling for); and Cheney meets with Netanyahu in June and gives Israel a green light to move against Hezbollah.


Um...Who is on what page here? What the hell passes for our policy in this matter?

1. Not doublespeak

It's blatant warmongering.

They don't care about people in America, why would we expect them to care about people in the middle east?

[katty]

4. right, direct call for expanding conflict into all out ME war

jack up those gas prices, boys!

[JuniperLea]

5. The number one priority... oil

Number two, do whatever it takes to get oil... number three, kill however many it takes to get more oil... and so on...

They know it's running out.

2. Cheney will fuse them back together tomorow

just a minor glitch.

3. not only that, ground invasion has been increased today, now, too

[Bonhomme Richard]

6. It's called stalling. They want it to look like .....

they are doing something. That's all.

7. I think it goes to show how out of it these goofs are

they were totally clueless when 9-11 happened, and they were totally clueless when this happened too. Where the f#$% were our alleged intelligence agencies that are supposed to give us a "heads up" on these things? Why are we giving them the money we're giving them?

And isn't Israel an ally? They didn't let us know what they were going to do before they did it? So we could have some kind of response prepared??

The more I see of W and his bunch, the more uneasy I become. :hide:

8. Wait it gets better.... they are meeting over dinner....so * and

Condi will meet only three hours to discuss the issue....What the hell are they doing during the day...oh wait that's right....vetoing stem cell research, stripping women of their rights, helping the rich get richer..
